General Burt Suggests Turning Them Over
to the japanese

San Francisco, June 26.--General A,
s. Burt, retired, who has recently re,
turned from the Philippines, has plan
for the solution OF the Philippine prob.
lem He believes he has arrived at a
conclusion that will ultimately be ac-
cepted by the administration and the
public at large as the only solution.
Turn them over to the Japanese, -
said the general "I.et them have
them on the installment plan for the
consideration of, say, $l50,000, 900.
Our government does not need the
money in lump sum, and by making
proposition of that kind we can die
tate as to coaling stations and make
such reserves as are thought to be best
for trade interests. An arrangement
OF that kind can be effected that will
give the United States as broad road
into the markets OF the Orient as If
we retained the islands; besides, we
will be making strong allies of two
nations that will represent our interests
on that side of the globe without the
necessity of the presence of large
army at an enormous expense."

TwO.ThIrds Of the Civil Positions Now FILLED
by Them.

Washington, June 25.--Hon. Leo W
Pepperman, member of the Philippines
civil service commission, is in the city,
having arrived on leave Of absence from
Manila, Mr.. Pepperman today said:
"The scope OF the commission has
been extendsd gradually until it now
covers 5000 positions, ranging in salary
from SIS per month to 81, 200 per year. F"
He says the immediate award to sue
cessful applicants has caused change
in the old classical system of education
under the old Spanish regime to one of
more modern character, based largely
on practical business lines. So great is
the interest of the Filipinos in acquir-
ing knowledge of English that 10 900
adults are going to night schools in
Manila.
Before the American advent in
Manila typewritters we're almost un-
known in the Philippines, but at every
examination held by the commission
applicants are qualifying in typewriting
and stenography. OF the 6 200 posi-
tions mentioned, 1900 are held BY
natives, the remainder by Americans.
The policy of the commission, Mr..
Pepperman says, has been to replace
Americans by Filipinos as rapidly rs
possible.
"Under Spanish rule" he tontin.
ued, women were unheard OF in the
government service, but before / left
Manila three Filipino young ladies had
passed successful examinations and had
been given good positions. The Fill
pino makes a splendid clerk. Shortly
before coming to America l made tour
OF the principal provinces for the pur-
pose of conducting examinations. 1t

was discovered, considering the fact
