Lawyer Untermyer urges federal control of foundations
Samuel Untermyer testifies before the federal commission on industrial relations in New York urging federal incorporation for foundations like Rockefeller, Carnegie, and Russell Sage. He says state charters are inadequate and calls for limits on charters and size, trustee selection, and government oversight to curb perceived evils while noting foundations do much good. He also proposes broad labor safeguards and notes absentee ownership as a capital risk factor.
