President Roosevelt-Praise for
Aids at a Banquet.

Cambridge, Mass, June 26.-Roose-
welt, class of 1880, came back to Har-
ward yesterday and received the de-
gree of LID. Later he spoke at the
alumni banquet, making an earnest
plea in defense of three college men
Root, Wood and Taft-who have
been among the foremost in carry
ing out the policy of the administra-
ton in Cuba and the Philippines. AL
most passionately he told of the work,
the self-sacrifices, the disinterested
services of Leonard Wood in Cuba, of
Judge Taft in the Philippines, and of
Secretary Root, and of the criticisms
and accusations made against them
who, he said, had worked with no
hope of reward and no expectation of
gain; for the good of the peoples whom
they sought to better and the added
glory of the nation, and he denounced
those who would calumniate them, and
declared he would stand by them to
the end.
At the Spanish war banquet in the
evening the president defended the
conduct of the army in the Philippines.
He declared no soldier guilty of cruel
ty to natives would ever be excused,
but asked the people to remember the
torture of soldiers by natives, and
closed as follows:
