This statement to-day by Secretary Taft to the
House Committee on Insular Affairs is regarded
by the administration decidedly important
The Secretary made one eXception-the small
amount expended in charting the rocks Of the

expressed the opinion that the information thus
gained was cheaply obtained for the benefit Of
the navy
Philippines the necessity Of removing the appli-
cation Of the coastwise shipping laws from
commerce between the islands and the United
States He argued that there are not enough
American vessels plying between the United
States and the Philippines TO handle trade that
would come TO this country II II were not for
the restriction in regard TO shipping. Senator'S
Hale and Teller produced figures in support OF
an argument that the increase of trade with
the United States had been limited that IL
did not warrant the removal of the restrictions
No action was taken the bills before the COM
-77i-tee to promote commerce between the United
