IBW -TORK,' Jan. 23.-jn a atat-miet today to the United States committee on industrial relations on the Colorado labor 1 situation, John D. Rockefeller, Jr., denied he had, as he said had been charged, "attempted 'to exercise a kind of abso lutism over the coal industry . ot Colo rado," or that he had "sought to dictate a. policy of nonrecognitton of unions.'' On the contrary, he said he was most hear tily In favor of labor unions, so long as their purpose was to promote the well being of the employes and they had due regard for the Interests of the public. . "The commission has asked my views," said Mr. Rockefeller, "as to what ex tent .the stockholders and directors of a corporation are responsible for the labor troubles - exist in 1 it and . for - the social conditions are produced; how generally and in w hat . manner such re sponsibilities are assumed by stockholders and directors, and in actual practice how and upon what general basis the labor policies of large corporations are de termined. J - , ' Ha Morfel Iflo-nce. "The responsibilities of 'stockholders is practically limited to the ""election of directors. They have no power to elect officers, to employ labor, to make con tracts or to intervene: directly In the management of the business.

' , A business to be successful must not only provld . for the laborer renum eratlve employment under proper work ing .additions, but it must also render useful service to thommuntty and earn a fair return on the money invested. "Any one who -has followed the con troversy which has Arisen out of the Colorado situation will have observed that no effort has been spared to make It appear that I . have attempted to exercise a . kind of absolutism over the coal industry tn Colorado and particu larly that I have sought to dictate a policy1 on non-recognition of unions. , n attitude toward industry and tcward labor spch as Is. here implied.

This Is rather remark able for a nation .that vents moral in dignation about us so frequently for the purpose of creating' antl-Uermon senti ments . abroad and consolidating public sentiment at home, But U Is even more extraordinary how Sir Edward, Grey this time overdraws his morality account by calling attention to what evil things we might doJn the future.
