NECESSARY TO CAPITAL
John D. Rockefeller, Jr., Says New

Relations.

ITHACA, N. Y, January liability
to deal amicably and successfully with
labor in preference to capacity as or
ganizers or fnanciers will determine
the selection in future of chief execu-
tives of important Industrial corpora
tions. John D. Rockefeller. jr., pre-
dicted today in an address at Cornell
ers' day.
Mr.. Rockefeller said the time is rap
idly approaching when this change will
occur. and he believed the personal
relation in industry would eventually
be regarded as an important part OF
college courses which aim to fit men
for business life.
Regard Labor as Prey.
1T is regrettably true" he asserted,
that there are capitalists who regard
labor as their legitimate prey. from
whom they are justified in getting all
they can for as little as may be. 1t is
there has been a growing feeling that
it was justified in wrestling everything
possible from capital So these two
great forces have come too often to
think that their interests are antago-
nistic and have worked against each
other, each alone seeking to promote
it's own selfish ends.
Il cannot believe that the success of
one must depend upon the failure or
lack of success of the other. Far from
being enemies, these two forces must
necessarily be partners.

Volunteers Relieve Regulars.

Mrs. Weed declared that a most en-
couraging feature of the new scheme
for impressing upon the country the de-
mands for suffrage. was the large
number of volunteers who offered
themselves yesterday for duty and who
served while the regular guard was
relieved to go to headquarters for hot
chocolate or tea.
There will be hundreds of volun-
teers today" she said. "and we will
have hot chocolate all day at head
quarters. We will not let anybody
suffer with cold. for many reasons. The
first is that no picket will have to stay
on duty too long. The second is that
we are all warmly clad.
we are being done a gross injustice.
The dispensing of justice is largely in
the hands of President Wilson-In fact
altogether in his hands so far as real
facts go. He is simply going round in
circles. Everybody knows that moth
ing can get through Congress except
what he approves.
.It is in this respect that we differ
from the other group seeking suffrage.
We will take no step except that which
is just and right. Many people gave
us their approval yesterday. Two dis
tinguished men who were on their way
into the White House commended us
and what we are doing"
