THE STAR—MONDAY. MEMBER OF THE SCRIPPS NORTHWEST LEAGURB OF NEWSPAPERS, Telegraph News Bervice of the United Press Association, the postoffice, Seattle, Wash., ae seeend Pspubliae The Star Publishing JANUARY 26, 1914 | Old John D. Babbles Thoughts | _ They Thought Before the Deluge | | N INTERVIEWER got hold of John D. the other day and extracted a bit of sunshine from the oil king's soul John doesn’t like the income tax. “When man has | Kei accumulated money—accumulated it under the law—the gov- | | ernment,” he thinks, “has no right to share in its earnings | Man’s right to undivided ownership of his property in w hat ever form cannot be denied him by any process short of con fiscation.” A rule which doesn't work the other way, though, when employers want arbitrarily to cut wages : | Still, while the income tax jarred on his sense of the fit mess of things, Uncle John was quite hopeful. “The coun- | try is all right,” he continued. “The government, too, ts pretty good, except now and then, when it gets into the hands | of men who aren't strong enough to turn a deaf ear to the} rantings and ravings of reformers.” Business is getting better. The big corporation has come | to stay. Men of great wealth are God's trustees for human ity and are learning more and more to be honest, straight and kind. Soon the run of folk will learn that it doesn’t pay to kick against natural selection and then there'll be an end of trust-baiting and the hands of business progress will again move on : Thus the old man babbled on—honest, perhaps, but quite antediluvian. It’s true, isn’t it, that you can’t teach old dogs new tricks? Fortunately, every little while there's a younger generation.
