The paper said that "nobody has
ever known much about ith (the
foundation's) fiuancial affairs Phil-
lips apparently has never s

Mid lias never offered a public r » k-

•"in the eight years since the shrine's
founding. thousands of citi/.»*!is .ill
over the country have bought the
coins and tliey are probably wonder-
ins what happened to their gifts."
Another aapect that has clouded
the issue is that Tnskcgee has re-

the memorial, even though Phillips

Washington Carver half dollar was
minted anil wold to (be foundation
under the same terms.
According to Phillips, the founda-
tion grossed "about $000,000 from
the sale of the coins. He reported
that $7."i,000 went IntA construction
of an office building at Hales Ford;
a replica of Hooker T's cabin was
built, and a site was given to Frank-
liu county for au elementary school.
Another $100,000 went Into the
unsuccessful o|>eratiou of n trade
school at Roanoke and the founda-
tion's Link got $'J0.UU0 in service
charges for handling sale of the
coins* "mi "some of the money wis
lost iu promotional schemes that
didn't work," said Phillips
Queried about the remainder of
the $00p,000, Phillips replied In an
Interview with Richmond Times*
I>ls|iatch: *'It costs n lot of money
to run a place iithis. Office ex-
lieuses alone probably were $100,-
000."
Commenting on the situation, the
Norfolk Journal and (iuldc said:
"The bright dream which was
fading is now Just n memory of the
former professor and soft drink
promoter, and a memory of the
thousands of people who bought
coins to supiMirt that dream ami to
date have had no complete report
on how the dream was financed."
