sugar is urged to benefit the Filipi-
nos, but under present conditions the
Filipinos are not producing sugar to
any great extent. They nave a mar
ket in China and Japan which they
are neglecting. Both China and ia
pan desire to buy raw sugar. This
would suit the Filipinos, for they
have no refineries. We have always
contended that what the Fillpinos
needed was more industry. They
have markets for all they can pro-
duce. They are not increasing their
productions. The talk OF free admis-
sion of sugar into the United States
has caused the Filipino to turn his
attention to Congress in the true
american way, asking favors and
locating a grievance. The average
Filipino viii today tell you that he
cannot prosper because American
legislation is against him. He did
rot make the same complaint as
against the same conditions under
Spain.
THE fact is that energy and In
dustry would bring prosperity to the
Philippine Islands without any
change of present laws. And chang
es in our laws would not bring pros
perity to the Philippine Islands un'
less industry and energy shall BIZ
made more emphatic than at thu
present time.
1--WE do not deny that consistenc!
shall finally require free trade be
tween the Philippine Islands and thu
mother country. We are disposed t.
advocate free trade with the island
as regards every product, Just as /
matter of consistency. But those
who have millions invested in sugar
beet plants are not prepared for sucf
radical change of policy on the par
of our Government.
Congress Is not now considering
free trade with the Philippines. Thu
only proposition pending relates to {
lowering of the duties. Secretar!
Taft advocates lowering the duties
He has in mind helping the F!lipinos
He loves the people of the islands
He feels like a father to them. HI
takes only the sympathetic view. Hi
constant battle for the Philippine Isl
ands must excite our admiration
even though we may not altogether
Cgree with him"
The contention in a nutshell 4
that the good that will be gained t
the Philippines by reduction of tn
sugar duty will not by any means of
set the damage that will be done in
dustry already established on tn
mainland and among other island
that are part of the country. Thi
is what Hawaii has always claimed
II is fact. And 1t is gratifying t
have the doctrine so well taught /

profit of sugar-growing IN measure
depends upon the number of crops
which can be produced without new
planting. No other sugar-growing
country in this respect can compete
with the Island of Negros. There
fore, when the free admission of SUI
gar from the Philippine Islands is dis
cussed conditions must be remem-
bered. The Hawaiian sugar-planter
says that in the year when Congress
declares for the free admission OF SUI
gar from the Philippine Islands every
sugar plantation in Hawaii will cease
to be cultivated. The American
grower of sugar beets makes the
same assertion. The sugar-grower
in Porto Rico holds to the same be-
lief.
These being facts, the question OF
the free admission of sugar from the
Philippine Islands becomes of the ut
most importance as respects justice
and conscience. Can the American
people now afford to change the en-
tire plan upon which operations have
been followed and throw the Amerl-
can market open for the free admis-
sion of sugar from the Philippines?
The Committee of Ways and Means
of the house of Congress has all the
time believed that It would be an In
justice to American sugar-growers to
change the entire policy of the Gov
eminent at this time.
Hon. James Wilson. Secretary Of
Agriculture, has never been an en-
thusiastic supporter of the doctrine
of free admission for Philippine su
gar, though ne has been of the hope
full belief that the beet sugar indus
try could be maintained under the
new conditions, provided the feld'
were properly cultivated and made
to yield to their fullest extent. HI
leans to the belief that in special!
favored localities the beet-sugar in
dustry could be maintained.
