Rockefeller Riches Only in His Name Hidden in Standard Oil Wealth
New York reports claim John D Rockefeller owns little stock in his own name, with more than a hundred million dollars in income from Standard Oil over eight years. His wealth allegedly lives in a network of holdings managed by agents and represented on over 125 boards with earnings surpassing many bank deposits. An attack by W J Bryan accuses Rockefeller of moral obliquity and aggressive business practices, while defending rivals who say all do it. Plus a Nebraska note noting the public dispute and publication of the critique.
