Walsh Charges Rockefeller Jr. With Absolute Colorado Responsibility
Frank P. Walsh, head of the Industrial Relations Commission, declares the Colorado strike proves John D. Rockefeller Jr. bore absolute responsibility for events there. He asserts miners fought for liberty against powerful coal operators and outlines alleged abuses, including political domination and Ludlow massacre, backed by testimony and associated figures. The commission plans a Chicago meeting to complete its report without expert testimony.

Plan for all American ship line to boost trade
Samuel Hale Pearson outlines a plan for a merged all American ship line including the Brazil government’s company, the Panama Steamship Company, the United Fruit Company and other concerns. He urges government and private stakeholding to improve Atlantic and Pacific routes between North and South America and to ship American goods to Buenos Aires and beyond. He notes political hurdles and says a $100 million fund could be raised with supportive reforms and a shared directors scheme. Pearson intends to meet Frank A. Vanderlip in New York to discuss practical details and expects Latin American colleagues to back closer marine links.
