AN attitude toward industry and
toward labor such as is here implied,
Is abhorrent to me personally, and so
contrary to the spirit of my whole
purpose and training that can not al
low these allegations to pass unnotic-
ed. believe it to be just as proper and
advantageous for labor for advance
ment of its legitimate interests, as for
capitol to combine for the same OBJ
ject. Combinations of capital are
some time conducted in. an unworthy
manner, contrary to law and in disre-
gard of the interests both Of labor
and the public. Such combinations
cannot be too strongly condemned nor
too vigorously dealt with. Although
combinations Of this kind are the ex-
ception, such publicity is generally
given to their unsocial acts that all
combinations of capital however right
ly managed Or broadly benefcient, are
thereby brought under suspicion.
CAS- respects the question of the
recognition or non-recognition Of labor
unions in Colorado. my attitude has
been in conformity with the views l
have expressed relative to the respon-
sibility of stockholders, directors or
managers. The discharging of men
and the framing Of agreements as
functions which belong to the manage

NEW YORK, Jan. 25.-John D.
Rockefeller, Jr.. in terstifying today
before the federal commission on in
dustrial relations, strongly defended
his attitude in the Colorado mine
strike, but at the same time advanced
the opinion that it is just as proper
for labor to organize for it's own pro-
lection as for capital to do so.
In addition to being an active d.
rector OF the Colorado Fuel and Iron
company, Mr.. Rockefeller is also one
of the chief directors of the Rookie
Teller foundation, one of the philan-
thropic aggregations of capital which
are being investigated by the COM
mission.
Describes Occupation.
Mr.. Rockefeller, asked about his oc-
cupation, said:
THAT is hard question to answer
| spend part of my time directing the
Rockefeller foundation and part direct
ing the industries established by my
father. At other times devote my
self to matters Of investment"
The witness began reading a state
ment which had been prepared in ad-
vance, part of which follows:
"Any one who has followed the con-
troversy which has arisen out of the
Colorado situation will have observed
that no effort has been spared to make
1T appear that I have attempted to ex-
ercise kind of absolutism over the
coal industry of Colorado, and particu-
larly that I have tried to dictate a
policy of non-recognition of unions.

Thursday, Dec. 23rd will be the forty-second anniversary of the Wo- mans Crusade, that "Whirlwind of the Lord" as Frances Willard called it, when women, cultured and refined, first measured steps from the church to the saloon and sang and prayed with and for the liquor dealers, either inside the saloon, or on the curb just outside.
 It was a wonderful beginning of a new order of things, and this genera tion should be glad to do honor to that sacred event as it comes year by year. If the women of 1873 could stop their Christmas preparedness" and go out on such an errand that lasted for months, can we not, in 1915, stop just one hour and go to Mrs. c. B.
