MANY FILPINOS ARE IDLE.
Root Said to Have Blamed Spooner
Amendment-Cause Of Some
Hostility.

Washington, Jan. 10.-Secretary
Root gave an interesting exposition
of the condition OF affairs in the
Philippines, in the course of hear
ing yesterday before the House Com.
mittee on Military Affairs. in connec-
ton with the army appropriation bill.
The meeting was behind closed doors
and no exact statement Of Mr.. Roots
remarks were given out. The Asso-
ciated Press furnished n statement Of
what was understood to embody the
more essential features. This state.
ment contained the following in part:
The discussion of the Philippine
conditions was brought out by ques-
tion by Mr.. Hay of Virginia, as to
whethY civil government could be
maintained in the Islands without the
presence of an army. In reply Mr..
Rot stated that the army was neces-
sary as q moral force to maintain the
civil administration now established.
One Of the main causes, he said. why
there had not been more progress in
the Philippines was that the Spooner
amendment passed by Congress last
year and restricting the grant Of fran
chises had the effect OF preventing
the investment Of capital. and the
consequent employment Of labor.
Many people were idle, and many of
these became conspirators simply
because they were idle.
Mr.. Root pointed out that even In
provinces where civil government
had been a success there were men
conspiring to assist in the agitation
and warfare carried on In neighbor-
ing provinces. On the whole, how
ever, the Secretary expressed the be-
lief that II Congress enacted the bill
proposed by Senator Lodge. or that
of Representative Cooper, Of Wis
consin, providing systems Of laws for
the Philippines, 1t would be possible
soon thereafter gradually to reduce
the military establishment in the Phil.
lppines. He did not believe 1t would
be rapid or complete termination of
military rule. Mr.. Root said that bet
ter progress had been made in the last
year than had been expected, and he
expressed the opinion that civilization
ultimately would be extended to the
people Of the islands.
