themselves or their attorney. Without

them among ecclesiastical bodies" ii
guarantees them in the continued posses

law belong to such peaceful possession"
The provision never should nave gone into
the treaty, but it is there, and the question
Is. what are we to do about II? The friars
cannot be expelled and they cannot be de-
prived Of their property. The only other
thing TO do is to deprive them of all civil

tensive properties. Exemption of all church
property from taxation is the rule in the
United States, but it is not required by the
Constitution. That kind CT property may
be taxed as well as any other II it be
deemed advisable. There IS no reason why
a different rule should not be established
in the Philippines. OF course all churches
and church properties would have to be
taxed alike. but as the friars have sue
ceeded in getting possession of the most
valuable properties in the islands they
would have to pay proportionately, and in
this way the people would gradually get
