eT In the islands. seeking a loan Of $50
600 600 in gold, and a credit of $50 900 .000,
from the United States Treasury, to es-
tabIish what would be known as the
United States of America Agricultural

The Thor of the petition speaks feel
ingly Of the distress which he says con
fronts his people His plea is in line,
so far as a necessity of promptly meet
ing existing conditions is concerned.
with the policy Of the Administration.
The petition was hurried to Congress
by Secretary Root to show that the need
of relieving the distress in the Islands
had not been exaggerated. hguinaldo
explains his somewhat visionary plan as
follows:
81 propose to the honorable Civil
Commission 10 obtain from Congress a
United States Treasury loan of 52o. 600 600
In gold, in cash, and also a credit Of
$4,000 600 in gold. which viii guarantee
the issue Of paper TO serve as money
in the islands. This sum shall be used
for the development and Improvement Of
Philippine agriculture, and shall be paid
within twenty years, the payments be-
ing made in three iDstaIlments at the
end Of ten, fifteen, and twenty years,
respectively. and at the rate OF $25, 600 -
600 al the end of the first period, which
would cancel so much Of the credit. and
S25. .000 900 AMI $50 900 900 at the end Of
the two remaining periods
The amount OF the credit would not
be taken out Of the United States Treas
ury like the loan, and both would be
without interest, and could Iever be
transferred to any other foreign nation. "
