I always took it as being about an old-fashioned patricial man who's attempting to fit into the liberal ethos of the 60s, by reading F Scott Fitzgerald's books and giving money to charity, but ultimately he's not thinking of the people and everyone can see through his greed and outdatedness. The social change of the day is the "something is happening and you don't know what it is".
