PUNISH FILIPINOS.
GEN. MILLS SAYS
Severe Measures Needed
With Leaders, Followers
Deserve LenienCy.
Larger Force, Better Pay
and Restored Canteen,
Among Recommen-
dationS.

Brig. Gen. A. l. Mills, commanding
the department of the Visayas, Philip
pine islands. in his annual report to the
war Department for the hscal year end
ed June 80 last, after making what has
come TO be the stereotyped recommended
ton for larger clerical and enlisted
forces, increased pay, and the restora-
ton of the eanteen as the solution Of
the temperance problem, recounts the
experience he and his troops had during
the year in putting down the Pulajanes
ana other disturbing tribes in Samar
and Leyte.
General Mills states that at the begin
ming OF the year. good order reigned on
the islands of Panay Negros. Cebu, and
Bohol. and continued for the most part
throughout the year, while in Samar and
Leyte conditions Of marked disorder ex-
listed and were somewhat difficult to
reu-edy. The campaigns In the early
part OF the year were covered in reports
Of General Lee and Colonel Williams, his
predecessors.
Islands Divided Into Zones.
The general plan of operations IN both
islands, General Mills says. has been
the same-the division Of each into dis
tricts or zones commanded by an officer
TO whom was assigned the special task
OF preserving order In it. Combined
movements Of all the troops were then
ordered, with the object Of keeping the
eremy moving. preventing his gathering
IN large numbers at any time. destroy
ing his supplies and means Of suhsist-
ence in the mountains, and forcing him
into the valleys and inhabitated parts
where he could be more easily proceeded
against by other troops. the coustabu
larry, and the volunteers.
Punish Leaders Severely.
An insight into the character OF the
ordinary tao Filipino is given by General
Mills thus:
1T Is impossible to avoid a certain sym
pathy with the ordinary tao Filipino in
these outbreaks. for, though he may be
fanatical and often IS bloodthirsty. he
is very ignorant and is totally under the
domination OF his leaders. A reasonable
generosity in dealing with this class Of
people should be encouraged. It is
thought, but not 50 with the leaders
who incite them, who are outlaws by
choice. and should be shown no mercy.
but should be vigorously prosecuted to
the full extent OF the law. Any less
severe measure win result in inducing
either them or equally vicious citizens
10 seek similar notorlety when the OBJ
portunity offers
Although I am not familiar with the
evidence available in all particular cases,
have felt. from my knowledge Of some.
that perhaps more consistency has been
shown in the prosecution OF offenders
nleritlng punishment IN Leyte than has
been the case in Samar."
