A GENEROUS GIFT
“Only last year,” says the English ‘Autocar’, “Sir William Morris gave ,£47,000 for the rebuilding of the Orthopaedic Hospital at Headington, Oxford. Now he has capped this gift by presenting £25,000 to the British Empire Cancer Campaign for the establishment of a research Fellowship in Radiology at the' Mount Vernon Hospital, near Northwood, Middlesex. The' gift brings the sum total of Sir William’s donations in the medical field alone to more than half a million pounds. Such figures are a tribute both to his personal generosity and to the amazing success of the company he has' built up and now controls.
