OF the refusal Of officers of the New

to haul free of charge the special train
bearing the delegation of japanese bus
mess men who are to tour the United

particular value to them as their ter
fltory had no trade connections with

lIl.
Summarizing his reasons for no
supporting the section OF the bill AZ Il
stands, Mr.. Stone said ne could MOI
do SO: because
First, II the Islands are, to be re.
garded as an American territory, thas
they are within the union. and thri:
products should have free access to Al:
our ports without restriction or limi.
tation.
Second, II our occupation of the Is.
lands is intended to3be only temporary.
and; If II be our policy to surrender
them to their own people, then we
should pass no law which would tend
to create such commercial or political
conditions between the islands and
this country as might delay Or embar-
ass the final completion of our pur-
pose; and
Third, we are under no such obli-
CATION to the Philippine people as to
make it our duty to support their gov
ertnent or to build up their indus
tries at the expense of our own.
II prefer to stand sauarely upon tho
Democratic platform and do for tic
Filipinos what we have already done
for the Cubans-set them upon their
feet and let them work out their. own
destiny"
