Stewart as chairman of the board of Standard Oil of Indiana is a mutter of more than passing interest. Regardless of its final termination, it is significant of u profound change that , has come upon American life in Uio last generation. , When Rockefeller was in his primo as nn active business man he was probably the most hated man in America, Soan- Iwx orators accused lum of almost every crime in the business decalogue. He was pictured as an unscrupulous, greedy mon ster, destroying or devouring all who crossed him, seeking his own aggrandisement at the expense of the American people Surely, no one in those days ever dreamed that the day would come when this same Rockefeller would be fighting to make other kings of business respect the fundamental rules of hon fsty and public responsibility. Yet that is precisely what is happening now. Stewart, deceiving the senate committee, acted precisely as industrial ists of the old school always acted. Rockefeller, trying to punish him for it, represents a comparatively new develop mentthe development of a system of ethics which holds bus inessmen accountable to the public for their acts, which calls on business to observe the same rules of honor and decency that private citizens observe, which demands that industry l)c run, not solely for profit, but for the best good of the na tion as well. j .' Rockefeller has changed mightily since the old days. He I himself has appeared before senate committees, and it is not! ' on record that the senators thought him u H-rfect witness. 'Hut he is different now. He has seen that the old set of ; Ktundards could not exist in a modern age, and he has aban . doned them. . Hotter yet, he is doing his wtrt to see to it that the rest (of the business world abandons them. Rockefeller never (served his country liettcr than he is serving it now in his fight with Colonel Stewart. in a cur with aomc fi-letula and re ported that the car turned .over twice on the way. hut all occupant were lucky Enough '1o carapo In-Jury.
