It is probably what will be done when.
the John D. Rockefeller holdings when
he dies. The tendency of money to
redistribute itself is thus stayed.
Whether this is a good thing for pos
terity is a question. The conservative
man would say it was better that these
millions should be tied together and
continue to earn than that they should
be distributed to heirs who would waste
the most of them. The president has
raised the question as to what is best
for the country. He is not interested
in the accumulation of immense wealth
nor is he interested against it. But he
is, as public man of large patriotism
and unexampled courage, interested in
seeking and declaring the policy which
will be best for all the people all the
time. s.-- ~,-~..es a.s-.
