Col DENLY of the Philippine commission
said today that the full report of the com
mission would probably be ready nv the
middle CT next month. While there are no
regular meetings, each member has baen
assigned part of the work on the renort
and these several parts are gradually heinz
completed preparatory to being assembled
into the one comprehensive report. Tbrougb-
out 1t will be the report of the commission
which will pass upon and approve the work
as prepared by the several members
This procedure has been found necessary,
IN order to handle the large amount NJ
material gathered. 1t includes depositions
and evidence taken to the Chinese adIo
cation, religious Institutions mines and
other resources. and in fact all of the vari-
Gus factors entering into the condition ana
future of the Philippines. Each member
has taken certain number of these suh-
jects. SUI
Col: DENLY said he feared the 'renort
would be rather voluminous, yet this was
offset by the fact that thorough and reI-
able information was desired on the mani.
fold questions arising. and the renort uonId
be as near complete exposition of tbs
subject al 1t was possible to make It.
