MORE THAN WARMTH, YoU WANT

COURSE you WANT SOMETHING
The Montgomery advertiser., 1905-08-06

In this day and in this country. say the cynically minde !. more money can do anything. But the cynically mind ed are wrong. There are many things that mere money cannot do, here and now.
 Take the case of John D. Rockefeller himself He has been the subject of uninterrupted uaily newspaper com ment longer than any other man now alive and has often been termed the most powerful living American. This latter is a grievous error. In some ways Mir. Rockefeller is as powerless as the penniless beggar on the street, and ne knows 1t.
 Apparently John D. Rockefeller was endowed at the beginning with two boundless ambitions. In becoming the richest citizen of the Republic he has realized one of these ambitions. But in the other matter next his heart his desires have aallen far short of realiz- alton.
 It is not the purpose of this arti- cle to show whether MT. Rockefeller should be well thought of or not. The fact remains that, despite the millions which he has given away, despite the publicity which for years has been gtv- ell to his religious exercises. despite the protests which have been made recently by men high in the counsels of his church, he is today the best abused and the most continually abused. individual living between the Atlantic and the Pacific.
 Every day, almost, his money fails to prevent the publication of informa- tion which he wishes to be kept secret about his enterprises.
