| DIR. Kings New discovery.
First it was thought 15OOO men
would put down the insurgents in
the Philip ne islands but that
number of American troops could
not do it. Now, it is believed co.
900 troops can put the insurgents
down. Time will tell. The Fill
pinos do not stand up well for a
pitched battle. They shoot and
run one day and the next day they
do the same. They seem to be ac-
tuated by thespirit of the conflict.
'"That he who fights and runs away
May live to fight another day."
To people who are not soldiers 1t
seems the thing to do, to put
enough troops to follow them
when they run, follow them wher-
ever they go.
