foundation the better for II and for the

Thaw will be called into court to plead
this morning at 1890 o'clock. At that
time Justice Davis will render his decl-

for Thaw that he be examined by physi-

is that the request will be denied

day. The hearing to-day will make nee.
essary the adjournment OF tho annual
meeting OF tn, Rockefeller Foundation,
as that of yesterday prevented him from
hearing from Mother Jones all about con-
ditions in Colorado and just how the
miners feel toward him.
Mother Jones occupies seat very near
Nj, Rockefeller at the hearings. She has
apparently been quite impressed with the
statements Of the young man who refused
to see her when she called at his Office
last summer to tell him about Colorado
and to denouncc him, as she had on
previous occasions, Yesterday morning
Mir. Rockefeller went to her before the
hearing began and said
"Why don't You come down to my
Office and talk over the Colorado situation
with me" You know the men out there
better than | or my associates possibly
could, and we would be very glad to have
your point Of view"

Rest Form OF PhiIanthrop,

MY father has always thought. and /
have felt as he did, that ne Of the best
forms Of philanthropy is to build up
productive industries which give EN-
ployment to many men; but he has
also felt that there were certain things
that could I've best accomplished by
gifts or foundations such as he has
established
Did YOU ever get a description. Mr..
Rockefeller, of what might have been
done If he had given out these vast
sums in the form Of wages to his em-
ployees"'
81 have not"
How did he come to establish the
fouudations?"
Before the establishment OF these
institutions for certain purposes my
father had carried them on privately.
As his desire and his ability to enlarge
his gifts increased he felt it desirable
to crystalllze these activities into
organizations which would carry them
on more effectively and on a larger
scale. It was In this way that the
Rockefeller Institute for Medical Re
search came to be founded. The idea
of medical research had always appealed
TO him. II is a field not frequently
entered because Of the uncertain results
aud because Of the great expense in
VOWED. He felt that much good could
be done If the foundation were made
substantial enough and the proper per-
sons were selected to take up the work"
