II is stated that resolutions will soon
be introduced in the House Of Repre-
sentatives providing for two amend
ments to the Constitution IN hccolu'
ance with new conditions arising from
the acquisition Of island territory one
will modify the fourteenth amendment,
relative to citizenship, and the otner
will affect the uniformity or revenue
laws
Representative Moody. who is giving
sneoial attention 30 this subject, says II
is obvious there will have to be some
discrimination with respect 70 the PhlI'
ippine Islands In citizenship and rev.
enue Laws. Under the Interpretation or
the fourteenth amendment by the SUI
preme court. he says, persons hereafter
born in the Philippines would De en-.
titled to full citizenship in the United
States, with all the rights and privl-
leges enioyed by other American citl'
zens
He regards 1t as evident that present
conditions do not admit OF the exten
sion Of such rights to people condi'
toned MS the FilipinOs are. He thinks
it obvious also that the revenue laws
uniform within the borders OF the Uni
ted States cannot be suited TO the oon'
ditions In the Philippines; and that
therefore, the Constitution should De
amended to meet the situation. -Iele'
gram from Washington.
Aud so il seems that the Constitution
does not provide for the new acqulsi'
tions and will have to be changed. Never
before in our territorial expansion has
this been necessary. because hitherto
the United States was acquiring terri
tory that, sooner or later, would be &C.
cupied blythe Auglo-Saxon. Yes. the
Constitution is to be changed, and 1t
would seem to be next in order to de-
clare that the Declaration Of Independ-
ence was a mistake. Such is the new
life Of the nation.
