The name of the Rosenwald Industrial Museum of Chicago will be changed to the Museum of Science and History, the change being made at the insistence of Julius Rosenwald, who endowed the institution with $3,000,000, over the protest of the Board of Trustees.
“Whatever I contributed toward founding the museum has been with the firm belier that it will play a useful part in our educational, industrial and scientific life,” Mr. Rosenwald declared in announcing his decision for the change in the name.
Leo F. Wormer, secretary of the board of trustees, said that Mr. Rosenwald’s “impersonal action marks a signal departure from the traditional personal form of public gifts.”
The contract for the building, costing $5,000,000, to be erected in Jackson Park here, has been granted.
The Archive of the Jewish Telegraphic Agency includes articles published from 1923 to 2008. Archive stories reflect the journalistic standards and practices of the time they were published.
