The United States has come into pos
session Of the philippines and all the
political and strategical responsibilities
entailed by this movement. The partici-
nation in. ard suppression of, the Boxer
rebellion. the expanding recognition of
the supreme importance to the future
pf American trade, of the open door, the
realization that with the exception of
T:Nln. - country is so well situated
a. the United States, industrially and
geographically, to make the most and
the best of the development of China.
These and other events have trans
formed American Indifference to the
fortunes of the Far East into a real,
live. tingling and vigilant concern.
Logical Commercial Events.
It did not need the Chinese boycott
Of American goods, or the outbreak of
the trouble with Japan over the immi-
grafton question, to convince an impair
tial onlooker that Americas relations
with the powers of the Far East would,
before long. be more immediate, Of
greater moment and possibly of greater
hazard than our relations with the
powers of Europe The American fleet
has foreshadowed the systematic asser-
ton of American power in the Pacific.
American interests in that ocean, COM
mercial, political and territorial, have
been neglected far too long.
Father of the Philippines.
Mr.. Taft is in a sense the father of
the Philippines. 1t has been his kindly,
constructive statesman's hand that
evolved order out of their original
chaos. In his report submitted to Con-
gress, as a result Of his visit to the
Philippines to be present at the opening
Of their first Assembly, he made four
recommendations First-actiOn by Con-
gress admitting to the United States
Philippine products under such condi-
lions that they would not interfere
with American tobacco and sugar in
dustries: second, the removal of re-
strictions as to acquiring mining claims
ILLUS, Cu1Au, AuA tACA AOSAoAoI
authorizing the government to carry
on an agricultural bank, which is now
authorized only as private enterprise;
fourth, the repeal Of the law applying
to the Islands the coastwise laws of
the United States.
Philosophy of Development.
Our nation has grown by obeying the
instinct of development. We are to-day
entitled to be called Greater America,
but that greatness will be lost if we
forget the political philosophy which
has made us great-expansion Of Amer
ican thought, territory, mechanical skill,
civilization and philosophy. This is an
suspicious time for the creation and de-
velopment of our export trade. The I'M
explored and undeveloped markets OF
Asia furnish the opportunity. All other
fields have been occupied, and to at
tempt to wrest them from other nations
would be of doubtful expediency. In
the Orient the commercial possibilities
exceed the dreams of the optimist
Are the American people ready to
abandon such a situation and leave 1T
to the mercy of the Democratic party
with it's failure Of fifty years looking
at us from the past?

PRACTICAL
DEMONSTRATION.
Actual Operation of Postal Savings
Banks in Philippines.
Two Years. Experiment Indicates
the Plan Is Successful.

The only postal savings bank sys-
tenn in operation under the American
flag is that in the philippines, where,
after two years of experiment, the
Institution has been declared great
success. In the report of the Philip
pine commission, just published, the
postal savings bank is discussed brief.
~, in part as follows:
1.-THE postal savings bank was first
opened in Manila on Oct. 1, 1906.
The law provides for three classes,
with limitations as to the amounts
that can be received at any one time
in each class. Following the opening
of the Manila Office, other postal saw
ings bank offices were opened in vari-
Gus cities, of different classes, until
at the close of the year 235 had been
opened, of which were first, So were
second and 40 were third class.
Filipinos Adopting System.
Eat first the Filipinos did not to
any great extent avail themselves Of
the opportunity Of depositing portion
Of their receipts in the postal savings
bank, anda great bulk Of the depositorS
were Americans and of other nation
alities. AS the advantages of this sys-
tenn have been disseminated through
means of schools, government bureaus,
private agencies and others, the pro-
portion of FilipinoS is continually in
creasing, and gives very good promise
that the Filipinos will learn to trust
their money to the care of the govern
ment, and welcome the opportunity.
''The accounts opened up to the
close of the fiscal year numbered
2,676, of which 347 were closed, leav-
ing 1929 still open. The deposits
reached the total sum Of 7S6, 1861. 03 pc
sos-an average of 108.21 pesos. With
drawals reached the total amount of
ESQ. 1927 pesos, leaving a net deposit
Of 500, 1881 pesos at the end of the
fiscal year-or the first nine months
of the operation of the postal savings
bank-but by no means the first nine
months of operation of the average
number of offices, the smaller ones
having been opened from time to time
during the year, so that many had
not been opened more than a month or
two at the time these figures were
taken.
Encouraging Small Accounts.
"The device of issuing postal saw
ings bank stamps has met with some
response. The stamps are simply a
method by which small amounts can
be deposited without the expense of
issuing a book, figuring interest, and
opening an account.
ION the whole, the reception accord
ed the postal savings bank has been
gratifying, and gives good promise.
The investment of the funds is in the
hands of postal savings bank invest
ment board, which carries a certain
amount of the funds on deposit, and
has limited power Of investment The
law provides that % per cent Of the
money held on deposit may be loaned
on first-class real estate, under limita
lions carefully drawn to protect the
depositOrs, and 10 per cent on agricul-
tural lands under still more rigid limi-
tations."

chivaIrous CHICAGO.

In Chicago more than in any other
place Is woman regarded in the light
of thing of beauty and joy forever.

does not esteem feminine loneliness as

live for, to strive for, to suffer for and
If necessary to die for.-Chicago Inter
