The Fourteenth Amendment.
Alarm has been professed lest the
Filipinos should not receive all the ben
efts guaranteed to our people at home
by the fourteenth amendment to the
constitution AS matter Of fact, the
FilipinOs have already secured the sub
stance Of these benefits. This govern
ment has been true to the spirit Of the
fourteenth amendment in the Philip
pines. Can our opponents deny that
here at home the principles Of the four
teenth and fifteenth amendments have
been in effect nullifedl In this, as in
many other matters, we at home can
well profit by the example of those re-
sponsibe for the actual management
of affairs in the Philippines. In our
several commonwealths here in the
United States we as people now face
the complex problem of securing fair
treatment to each man regardless Of
his race or color. We can do so only IL
we approach the problem in the spirit
of cOurage, common sense and high
minded devotion to the right which
has enabled Governor Taft, Governor
Wright and thee associates to do so
noble a work in giving to the Philip
pine people the benefit of the true prin-
ciples of American liberty.
Our appeal is made to all good citi-
zens who hold the honor and the inter
est of the nation close to their hearts.
| The great issues which are at stake
and upon which l have touched are
more than mere partisan issues, for
they involve much that comes home to
the Individual pride and individual
well being of our people. Under condi-
tions as they actually are good Ameri-
cans should refuse for the sake of the
welfare of the nation to change the
national policy We who are RESPONSE
Die for the administration and legisla-
tiOn under which this country during
the last seven years has grown so
greatly in well being at home and in
honorable repute among the nations Of
the earth abroad. do not stand inert
ly upon this record, do not use this rec
ord as an excuse for failure of effort
to meet new conditions. On the con
trary, we treat the record of what we
have done in the past as Indictment 10
do even better in the future. We be-
lieve that the progress that we have
made may be taken as a measure of
the progress we shall continue to make
if the people again intrust the govern
ment Of the nation to our hands.
