Speaking of thecircumstances wMiich led to the Rockefeller Foundation as a part of its work the investigation of industrial relations and of the choice King for its direc tion Mr Jr refers in his article to the- industrial disturbances in Colorado of a year or two ago in the following very frank and straightforward way Their many distressing fea tures gave deepest con cern I frankly confess that I felt Chore was something fundament ally wrong in a condition fairs which possible the loss of human lives engendering hatred and bitterness and brought suffering and privation upon hundreds of human beings I determined therefore that in so far as it lay within my power would seek some means of avoid ing the possibility of similar conflicts arising elsewhere or in the same industry in the future It was in this way Moil came to recommend to my colleagues in the Rockefeller- Foundation the instituting of a series of studies into the fundamental problems arising out of industrial rela lions Many others were explor- the same Held but it was foil I that these problems affect- ing human welfare so vitally that an institution such as the Rocke feller Foundation whose purpose as staled in its charter is to promote the wellbeinfe of throughout ififl World could not ilr- duty or its opportunity This in securing the services Mr 1 formerly of an iuvtsigation with a special view o he Ian

and I of give every employ voieehift and aspira- his interest in its public affairs there were some who doubted the possible of an association seemed to bring in near relations to other two men who were supposed to ideals wholly out Of accord with each other Most Canadians knew the one man as a Canadian for gen erations back as a man of social sympathies inherited from a revolutionary grandfather and intensified by close personal con tact with men in a multitude of industrial conflicts The other talked with John Rockefeller Jr none knew him well But the name Rockefeller was synony mous With wealth and it was part of the accepted of the country that with the name there must also be all the foibles and faults which frequently attach to the wealthy A Conflict of Personalities Naturally there was confusion in the minds of many Opinion concerning Mackenzie King was based upon knowledge gained from firsthand contact Ac quaintance with the younger Rockefeller had been gained from the unsure history of newspaper headings The personality of the one man as thus misunderstood seemed to furnish contrast and conflict with other at almost point Mackenzie King had declared through his work in Canada bis ambition to bo of public John Rocke feller Jr was thought l be am bitious only for himself King trusted in the power of public opinion to effect the righting of social wrongs Rockefeller did not recognize its force shunned all publicity feared Hie public could not be made to deisland The man of wealth had always been wealthy The Can adian had had make his own way and had more once felt the pinch of necessity The one man was thought to he antagon istic to labor Mackenzie King was known to he quite differently minded in his thought of labor bad always included

Rocke feller but was well aware of the feeling shared regarding him which only prejudice and lack of and misinformation caii create While in New York anil in close conversation with Mr Rockefeller Jr a man of lie was astounded to discover that this man con cerning whom many could say no word possessed a of singular a deep moral purpose that could not shaken ideals or life like to own was truly a dis covery Others within the- nar row circle business and personal bail been aware of the wealth of spirit and principle and energy that was stored up in his naturehut the knowledge had been for them Macken zie King had gone to New York ready Mo advise concerning an industrial problem but with no sinUllcst thought of forming any continuing association He came away with feelings of resentment that a man such as he had come to know should be the victim prejudice and misunder standing He came away also with the determination that oth ers should know of the discovery he had made The efforts which followed swift upon that deter mination have borne fruit in a thousand ways ReaplngTlme Is Not Yet Any report of Mackenzie Kings activities during last year as director of Department of the Industrial Relations of the Rock efeller Foundation must fail to convey a right estimate of the contribution he has made to the cause pi industrial Ideas been developed and lo practice rather than into reports Thoughts too to be packed into a narrow act have been sown and the reaping time is not yot The most seri ous industrial situation of years has been faced and a new order established iii a way which must reflect only the higher credit upon his splendid con- genius A year of such accomplishment argues strongly for a large measure of public usefulness through future studies and their application to existing problems It is not too much to hope that in industrial research the achievements of Mackenzie King will rival the splendid re sults which in medical research have been achieved through activities of the Rockefeller In stitute for Medical Research The remarkable experiments being made in bacteriology for by the young Japanese physician fin the Rockefeller In stitute in New York said
