Tha Am erican today publishes a lengthy In terview with John D.

In the Interview Mr. Rockefeller Is quo ted as being opposed to the over-cap! taJlsatlon of the railroads and other corporations and as favoring federal control of the railroads. Of over over capitalisation. Mr, Rockefeller Is quoted as saying "I think that properties should be capitalised at only their legitimate value, an dif that . were done there would be such a feeling of security in them among the general public that we would find men with a little money holding highly profitable stocks Instead of allowing It to remain at small interest in aavngs banks." Mr. Rockefeller, however, was una ble to suggest a remedy for existing cases of overcapitalization. He said, in his argument It would be next to impossible to reduce such capitaliza tions now without causing chaos, but for the future, corporations he would suggest conservatism. "Allied if he thought the confer ences between the railroad men and the government would be beneficial, Mr. Rockefeller said ; "I cannot say. It is my Idea that federal control would be a better thing for the roads. They would then un-j aerstand the laws they must observe, and would be able to plan ahead dlU-, gently without one state demandlng; one thing ana anotner equally insistent on something entire- j CONTROL ly different.
