gift support to 988 colleges and universities in the United States was $813,244,747in 1958-59,according to the survey of American Alumni Council。Independent secondaryschools reported voluntary contributions of $23,855,561 and Canadian institutions$26,056,861.  \nAlumni support for universities and colleges reached a record high total of $185,927,137。Of this amount $42,338,496 came through annual alumni funds。  \nOf 6,607,487 alumni asked to give to annual alumni funds,1,384,247 responded。  \nEffectiveness of solicitation of alumni decreased from 22.5%in 1957-58 to 20.9%in 1958-59.  \nThe average gift to alumni funds increased from $32。03 in 1957-58 to $32.86。  \nAlumni giving represented almost one-fourth(23。2%)of all voluntary support reportedby 1,144 institutions。  \nThe 1958-59 Survey shows an increase over the Council's 1957-58 Survey of 8。4%inalumni gifts to annual funds and 71.6%in total of all alumni giving.  \ninstituted in 1946,as of December 31,1959 had

under construction.The total cost of all facilities approved amountedto $4,142,000,000,of which sum the Federal government contributed $1,280,000,000。47 per cent of the projects were located in the Southern states,23 per cent in NorthCentral states,16 per cent in North East states;and 14 per cent in Western states。  \n# COMPANY SPONSORED FOUNDATIONS\n\nCompared to the contribution programs ofcompanies not having foundations,those associated with foundations were likely to havebeen more active,better organized,and with a clearer conception of long-range goalsand ways of attaining them!。。.thus writes Frank M.Andrews in A Study of CompanySponsored Foundations,published by Russell Sage Foundation.  \n# REGARDING TAXES\n\nI。R.S.ruling authorizes the establishment of trusts,for non-profitho spitals,from which the donors may receive tax-free income for life。The Servicepreviously had specified approval of a similar plan for colleges.Under such a life-income plan,securities given in trust can be switched by the trustee into tax-exemptswith a further provision the donor is to retain a life intere st in the trust's income。  \nProperty owned by non-profit organizations is not necessarily exempt fromstate taxes.Ohio Board of Tax Appeals rejected YMCA application for tax exemptionof property it proposes for building。Pennsylvania Courts refused tax exemption to achurch on its parking lot.  \nAmerican Bar Association tax bulletin reports possible change in I.R。S.rulings on deductibility of contributions for use abroad,particularly where Americanorganization does not maintain control of expenditures abroad.This might affect organi-zations set up here to promote gifts to out-of-country educational institutions。  \n# FINAL FIGURES\n\nfor new canstruction in 1959
