RAKEs the FOUNDATION, TOO
Official Of United Mine Workero Says
Institution Seeks to Substitute
Philanthropy for Justice -
Tells Suffering.

New York, Feb. Looming almost
straight from the office of John D.
Rockefeller, Jr, where he had
"friendly chat" with him over condi-
tions in the mines of Colorado, John
R. Lawson, a member OF the execu-
tive board of the United Mine Work
ers. for the district including Colora-
do. read before the federal commission
on industrial relations scathing in
dictment of Mr.. Rockefeller and the
attitude he had displayed before the
commission.
The policies and purposes OF the
S10O, 100000 Rockefeller foundation
and the recent utterances OF young Mr..
Rockefeller on the witness stand were
assailed by Mr.. Lawson.
Among other things Mr.. Lawson as
serted "a skillful attempt is being
made to substitute philanthropy for
Justice"
Money "WlthheId" From Toller.
In assailing the Rockefeller founda-
ton he asserted that one Of the
causes Of Industrial discomfort was
that very philanthropy and the feeling
that the millions spread over the
world in snowy generosity" were de-
rived from the money withheld from
the wages of the. American working
class"
Mr.. Lawson criticized young Rocke
feller for his lack of knowledge Of
conditions among employees OF the
Colorado Fuel company, and said he
was equally as ignorant and indiffer
ent as his trusted executives"
"Your body can well htord to lei
the testimony of John ID Rockefeller
Jr, bring your Investigation to an
\ end. lawson told The commits
on oi ms noun tsnles fsas0a-I
for every discomfort that agitates the
laboring class In the United States to-
day, and IL remedies are provided for
the injustices that he disclosed lons
step will be taken away from indus
trial disturbance"
Mr.. Lawson told Of the shooting Of
striking miners in Colorado, the shat
tering of miners homes, how hundreds
were dumped in 1903 into the desert
without food or water" while others
were driven over the snow OF the
mountain ranges.
Philanthropy "For Birds"
The philanthropy of the Rockefellers
Mr.. Lawson referred to as follows:
Health for China, a refuge for
birds, food for Belgians, pensions for
New York widows, university train
ing for the elect-and never thought
or a dollar for thousands Of men,
women and children who starved in
Colorado; for the widows robbed OF
husbands, children of their fathers.
There are thousands of Mr.. Rookie
feller's employees in Colorado who
wish to God they were in Belgium to
be fed, or a bird to be tende:ly cared
for"
Ir. Lawsons statement was a re-
hearsal of the testimony of young Mr..
Rockefeller and a vigorous arraign-
ment of him for not having investi.
gated the Colorado situation ia detail.
