“Since when is a Torah institution controlled by the money men rather than by the Torah men?? “

Unfortunately, that is very often the case. Rav Dessler once got up to give a speechh to the baal habatim of the community where a new yeshiva was being started. He related a story that after the petirah of Rav Yisrael Salanter, someone asked his wife how it was like living withhim and she answered that all mili deshmaya were in his domain and all mili d’alma were in hers. Over time, she realized that to Rav Yisrael, all things were mili dishmaya. As you can probably guess, the speech wasn’t recieved too well.
