was estimated at $6,000,000,000.  \nReligious giving,in 1956,for all faiths and all purposes,approximated  \n$3,120,878,000,about ten percent above the total for 1955.New religious con-struction alone cost $775,000,000 during the year,the bulk of this sum comingfrom contributions.  \nIncreased giving to health and welfare,a major area of philanthropy,isindicated in reports of United Funds and Community Chests which forecast totalcontributions of $378 million,in 1956,about 12 percent over last year.  \nTotal giving for all health and welfare purposes is estimated at  \nHigher education also benefited from the upswing in philanthropy.Reports of alumni funds,an index of giving to higher education,show the totalgiven is 18 percent above last year.Giving to higher education was officiallyreported to total $400,000,000 in 1953,and is expected to reach $550,000,000in 1956,excluding sums which were given in 1955,but paid in 1956.  \nThe contributions of individual givers accounted for the greater partof the total American philanthropy,perhaps as much as 70 percent.In 1953,the last year for which official figures are available,individual contributorsreported deductions for contributions of $3,556,617,000.During the pastfive years the percentage increase in tax deductions for contributions hasbeen about half the percentage increase in personal income.If that ratio wasmaintained then individual contributions reported for tax purposes shouldreach $3,791,000,000 in 1956.  \nCorporate giving which was reported $494,517,000 in 1953 is apparent-ly well in excess of $550,000,000 in 1956.  \nFoundation giving which set a new high in 1955,due to an unusualyear end contribution is estimated to have exceeded $500,000,000 in 1956.  \nNeed for wider knowledge of motivations in giving has been the subject ofmuch recent discussion.There have been many dissertations on the matter,some scientific,some pseudo-scientific,and some based only on commonsense.Psychologists offer widely varying opinions,while some psychiatristsdeny there are any common patterns of motivation.The chart on this pageattempts to set forth some opinions.It makes no
