ADVICE OF ACGIE
TO THE FILIPINOS
Says Time Has Come to Sub
nit to United States.
EARNEST PLEA FOR PEACE

Captive Leader Tells His People They
Will Obtain Liberty by Needing His
Advice - Americans, He Declares,
Are Generous.
MANILA, April 20.-The following IL,
Aguinalda's address to the Filipino peo-
pie:
Il believe that / am not in error in
presuming that the unhappy fate in
which my adverse fortune has led me
is not a surprise TO those who have been
familiar with the progress of the war.
The lessons taught, with a full meaning
and which have recently come to my
knowledge, suggest with irresistible
force that complete termination of
hostilities and lasting peace are not only
desirable, but absolutely essential to the
welfare of the Philippine islands.
"The Filipinos have never been dis
mayed at their weakness nor have they
faltered i'll following the path pointed
out by their fortitude and courage. The
time has come, however, in which they
find their advance along this path to be
lmpeded by an irresistible force which,
while it restraints them, yet enlightens
their minds and opens up to them an
other course, presenting them the cause
of peace. This cause has been joyfully
embraced by the majority of my fellow
countrymen, who have already united
around the glorious sovereign banner of
the United States. In this banner they
repose their trust and belief that under
it's protection the Filipino people will
attain all those promised liberties which
they are beginning to enjoy.
Heeds Voice of People.
"The country has declared unmistak-
ably in favor Of peace. SO be it. There
has been enough blood, enough tears
and enough desolation. This wish cam
not be ignored by the men still in arms
if they are animated by a desire to serve
our noble people, which has thus clearly
manifested It's will. So do / respect
this will, now that it is known TO me-
"After mature delberatioa, 4~feso.
lutely proclaim to the world that | can
not refuse to heed the voice of people
longing for peace, nor the lamentations
of thousands of families yearning to see
their dear ones enjoying the liberty and
the promised generosity Of the great
American nation.
fBy acknowledging and accepting the
sovereignty of the United States
throughout the Philippine archipelago,
and as l now do and without any re-
servation whatsoever, believe that l
am serving thee, my beloved country.
May happiness be thine :"
To signalize this important step in
the pacification of the country. General
Macarthur orders the release, on swear
