other than those withdrawn or by Clergy
Of the same order who are not Spanish
II Is necessary TO convince the FiIipinOs
that the ancient regime Of the Spanish friar
IL finished.
Orders Remain Anti-American.
The note reminds the Vatican that the or
dsrs still publish n paper in Manila which
Is anti-American and anti Philippine. but
pro-Span!sh. and that the orders possess
property in Manila To the value OF nearly
6.ooo.opo Mexican dollars. while that OF the
Catholic church is valued at only 40 90
Mexican dollars. This is very significant
as the orders have also a large capital at
interest besides the land which II is now
proposed the Government should purchase.
To reach the desired object. the best thing
is to prevent any member Of the four with
drawing orders. without distinction or ma
tionality. from being sent to the Islands.
Nothing will so calm the people and produce
harmony between the church and the Gov
eminent as the certainty given by contract
that the friars shall leave at a fixed date;
shall not return and shall not exercise any
influence from Manila over the priests in
the parishes. In view OF these facts. II IS
hoped that the Vatican will! accept the prop
ositions.
The note ends with calling the attention
of the Vatican TO the clause regarding re-
Iigious teachings in the public schools. say
ing that Judge Tafts instructions prevent
further discussion OF the matter. II also
calls the attention OF Cardinal RampOIla TO
the sixteenth section OF the general law for
Philippine schools. a copy OF which is in
closed
The note Is accompanied by the kind OF
contract which Judge Taft proposes will be
signed.
