cannot be too strongly condemned nor too

OF this kind are the exception, such publicity
is generally given to their unsocial acts that
all combinations of capital, however rightly
managed or broadly benehcent, are thereby
brought under suspicion.
And G:cvise it sometimes happens that

legitimate and useful just as is the case with
improper combinations of capital, and they

self For in that principle strongly believe"
And is it simply this principle Of which you
speak upon which has been built the new plan
of operation?'
Yes The principle itself is entirely
worthy one. 1t is simply principle OF broth
erly nterdependence. Whatever stimulates
every man to do the best work of which he is
capable must work toward the highest good OF
all. What we are trying 10 do among the miners
to promote feeling of goodwill one man
toward another, and employees toward en-
ployers."
What are other features of this plan, Mr..
Rockefeller"
We'll, the new basis of representation, as
have said, stands first. This places the whole
concern upon broadly democratic base. The
plan has been worked out very carefully, In
considerable detail. every point being so spe

showing Where His Plan Would
Dissipate Hatred and Friction.
and Prevent the industrial Crisis

you speak the crisis would have been pre-
vented
Il really think So" he answered Were all
irnbued with the spirit which permeates this
plan from beginning 10 end there could hardly
he friction And not until this spirit is shared
by all can we really feel that labor and capital
have ceased their long and weary conflict.
Capital can never hope 70 gain anything
through an unfair treatment OF LABOR. nor can
labor hope to gain anything by foolishly and
ndiscriminatcy denouncing capital. One is
entirely dependent upon the other, and, since
this is the case, the highest good of each can
only be conserved through an amicable ADJUST
ment.
1T is not law which counts in the lives OF
men. but that spirit OF brotherhood, OF CO.
operation. OF justice which enters into mems
hearts and prompts fairness. Without this no
social or economic adjustments are possible.
Throughout the interview MI Rockefeller
refraued from uttering one bitter word
against those who have so roundly, and in
many cases so sneeringly. belittled the work
he is doing among the miners. All sorts OF
alluring opportunities were afforded. each OF
which was tossed aside in a kindly even
tempered
spoke more eloquenty than the most vehe-
ment verbal revenge
The spirit OF perfect cooperation can
hardly be assailed," he would reply. Those
who criticise what we are trying to work out
I cannot but feel simply fail to recognize the
spirit which animates II all.
"Paternal control" one critic had charac-
terized the Rockefeller ideal. Another attack
ohrased itself like this; The miners employed
by the Colorado Fuel and Iron Company have
been whipped by means of atrocious brutality
and hunger into submission. back to the mines
And these miners have been formed into
union by Mr.. Rockefellers benevolent
altruism"
The wealthy man thus characterized sat
opposite me in his Office at 20 Broadway. He
leaned forward with the animation OF school
boy telling a great and memorable adventure
His lips quivered with the very inadequacy OF
words. His eyes had that honest CLEAN in
them which can hardly be simulated.

said 81 wanted 70 see for myself how they
were living. what the conditions were, in what

wives and children 1t was very intimate
contact. When the plan was drawn up it was
submitted to the men for suggestions. | think
the large majority of the vote which was
finally taken proves how well satisfied the
miners are with the opportunities and guar
antees in the new plan"

seientious way, to point out that he himself

Then you are not opposed TO the unions?
"Enphatcally no." he replied Il consider
that there is abundant good in the organization
OF labor so long as such organization remains
legitimate and does not inhict unjust and
arbitrary restrictions upon the men who sub
scribe to it.
IN this connection and that there may DC a
perfectly clear understanding of just how
stand regarding labor, cannot better commit
myself than in the phraseolosy which | ad-
dressed to the United States Commission on
Industrial Relations:
Il believe it 10 be just as proper and advan-
tageous for labor to associate itself into or
ganzed groups for the advancement OF its
legitimate interests as for capital to combine
for the same object. Such associations OF
labor manifest themselves in promoting collec-
tive bar gaining. in an effort to secure better
working and living conditions in providing
machinery whereby grievances may easily and
without prejudice to the individual be taken up
with the management. Sometimes they pro-
vide benefit features, sometimes they seek 10
increase wages, but whatever their SPECIFIC pur-
pose. so long as it is TO promote the we'll
being OF the employees, having always due re-
gard for the just interests OF the employer and
the public, leaving every worker tree to as
sociate himself with such groups or TO work
independently as he may choose, favor them
most heartily.
In other words" ! suggested. you believe
in the organization of labor so long as the open
door or the open shop is maintained?
Precisely l believe that every American
workingman is entitled to act according to his
own Judgment 1t is manifestly unjust to bind
a man. or to force him to act n concert with
movements which are not intrinsically relited
TO him or which he does not believe will ad-
vance his own individual interests With the
principles Of organization I am entirely in &C
cord | am not at all seeking, in this plan we
have adopted for our company in Colorado, to
wage war against unionism, or to supplant
unionisn; nothing could be further from my
purpose. l am SIMPLY endeaVorins 10 estdo-

II know this plan is not perfect. No doubt
many changes will be made in it as practice

spirit which -underles it is the spirit which
will ultimately solve all our industrial prob

point not OF politics but OF sheer prejudice,
/ think the male element opposed to woman
suffrage may be divided into two sections.
The first section contains those men who have
an honest feeling that the women themselves
will suffer through the privilege for which
they are contending. Doubtless good many
men feel that women would be coarsened
through becoming involved in politics. The
other section OF opponents comprises those
men who fear an unpleasant curtailment OF
their own personal liberty. There are certain
preroga tives which have 80 long been esteemed
inalienable that it is with great reluctance

And, al things corsi cred, the defeat itself
