their qualifications, the claims of volun-
teers in the span.sh-Anerican war would

President added he would hesitate long to
turn down a good soldier even if he was
not entirely up to the mental standard
usually required. at all events. his merits
would be carefully considered in COM
parison with one not having served in the
Philippines who might possess the educa-
tional advantages.
This announcement of the Presidents
policy has been received with good deal
of satisfaction in numerous quarters, and
is held as the first positive declaration Of
his intentions in dealing with the matter
