1t Deals at Length with InsuIar Policy
and the Future of Cuba.
! WASHINGTON, Dec. 2.-The report Of
Secretary Root deals at length with the
questions of insular policy, of army re-
organization, of the future of Cuba and
of the campaign in the Philippines.
Regarding the problem of insular gov
ernment he recalls the fact that the
treaty of Paris places in congress alone
the determination of the civil rights
and political status of the native inhab-
itants of the territories ceded to the
United States. He argues that this
limitation completely deprives these
people of the right to have the islands
treated as states or as territory pre-
viously acquired has been treated, or
even to assert legal right under the
provisions of the constitution, which
was established for the
People of the United States
themselves. Nevertheless he assumes
that the intention is to give them to
the greatest possible extent individual
freedom, self government in accordance
with their capacity, just and equal
laws. an opportunity for education, for
- profitable industry and for develop
ment and civilization. Concerning
Cuba the report says the control which
we are exercising in trust for the peo-
pie of Cuba should not and of course
will not be continued any longer than
is necessary to enable the people to es-
tablish suitable government to which
the control shall be transferred, which
shall really represent the people of
Cuba and be able to maintain order and
discharge international obligations.
