ROCKEFELLER DOES US A SERVICE
John D. Rockefeller's fight to unseat Colonel Robert W.
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.
