The only stipulation is that nothing

for the establishment of this unique
bread line is explained by the pro-
prietor of the hotel as follows:

JOHN D. s POWER
IS STUPENDOUs
As Shown In Rockefeller
Foundation.
WALSH SOUNDS WARNING NOTE
InterI0ckIbg System Greater
Than Railroads aud baLkS
Ever Exhibited.
COMPETING WITH UNCLE SAM

Kansas City. Mo-, Feb. 49,
Frank P Walsh, Chairman of the
Federal Industrial Relations Com
mission, which has been investigat.
ing great philanthropic foundations.
in a statement to-day declared that
John ID. Rockefeller. ST., dominates
the Rockefeller Foundation, which.
Walsh said. can apply the enormous
power of the money 1t controls to
almost any purpose 1t chooses.
THE testimony at the New York
hearing" declared Mr.. Walsh,
showed that the Trustees of the
foundation exercised no authority
that did not come from him. II,
showed that the directors of the
industries from which the Founda-
ton also we're directors of the in
dustries from which the Foundation
obtained its funds. As an inter-
locking system 1t beats anything the
railroads and banks ever exhibited.
"The powers it claims and exer-
cises virtually are unlimited, as are
its financial resources. They are
powers which should challenge the
attention of every thoughtful Amer
lean citizen. Whether such powers
can be permitted safely in the hands
of any authority less than that of
the Government of the United States
is a question which will form an i'm
portant part Of the commissions
forthcoming report. am inclined
to believe these powers cannot be
exercised under he American theory
of government. The commission is
not through yet with the Rockefel-
Ter and other foundations, but this
much can be said: The Rockefeller
Foundation is entirely without the
realm of Government control.
i am surprised that the direc-
tors and trustees of the Rockefeller
Foundation do not know some of
the things brought out in the hear
Ing. They do not know anything
about the Foundation. They do not
see Mr.. Rockefeller twice a year.
Mr.. Rockefeller is a smart man;
perhaps the smartest in the coun-
ny. But he could not tell the COM
mission why he did not use his prof
is to pay living wage, instead of
Using them in the distribution of
harity that constituted a power
which many Americans have come
o look upon as a menace.
The power Of the Foundations
money is being used to compete
With the United States Government
the investigation Of the questions
eing investigated by the Industrial
relations Commission. The United
'tates Government is spending
100000 in its inquiry. The Rookie
eiler Foundation, II it will, can
pend 100000 a year. Its inves-
Igation is being conducted by the
uthor OF an industrial act tried in
anada. which was opposed by ev-
ry labor organisation there and
hitch failed slgnally.''
