f|L|P|N0S NOT FIT
FOR CITIZENSHIP
Hopes Must BE Deferred, Says
Secretary of War in Report
to President.

washington, Dec. S.-Secretary OF war
Dickinson gives little encouragement to
the aspirations OF the Filipino people for
political Independence in his special re-
port on his visit to tho Philippine islands
transmitted to President Taft While
many Fiipinos, Secretary Dickinson says.
nre well educated and capable OF self
government the great mass Of the people
nlc unfit for political responsibilities.
Mr. Dickinson spent about five weeks
IT, visiting the islands. He was accom-
panied by Brg-Gen. Clarence r. Edwards.
chief of the bureau of insular affairs.
After n complete investigation of the
subject Mr.. Dickinson exonerates Dean
Z. Worcester, a member of the Philip
pines commission. and T. C. Carpenter.
executive secretary of the commission. of
Che charges of improper official conduct
IN connection with frlar land transac-
Hons, which were made in Congress last
winter by Representative Martin Of Colo
RADIO
As result of his visit Mr. Dickinson
recommends that Congress appropriate
the sum of S25000O for the development
CT the coal mines on the island Of Batan.
that provision be made for the retirement
Of the American employees in the Philip
pine civil service; that the limit Of in
dcbtedness for public improvements be
Increased from $500, 600 to 1000 Ot, that
congress enact legislation increasing the
number Of mineral claims which may
be developed by q single person or
corporation In the same vein or lode, and
mat the Philippine Assembly have au-
I.orty TO enact legislation enabling any
Filipino. well as aliens, to become
ri't"ens Of the Philippine islands.
WOULD INCREASE HOMESTF,ADING.
Secretary Dickinson is also in favor of
increasing the amount of land which
may he honest eaded or sold 10 individ-
uals. He refrains, however from making
definite recommendation this point
because the question Is now being in
vestigated by committee Of Congress.
THE work of preparing the Filipinos
for popular self-sovcrnment" says Sec
rotary Dickinson. '1s steadily progress
ing along the lines which have been APP
proved by you. shan refer more partic-
ularly to the various kinds Of admnistra-
tive work, but will here say that the ad-
mnistration of the various departments
IS in n generally satisfactory condition
and that the best results are being at
tained with the means at hand ana under
the conditions that must be contended
with. on the whole l believe that the
administration of the islands Is such that
st should give satisfaction to the Amer
lean people.
the Filipino people" he continues
"are substantially in the same attitude as
when you visited them in 1907 Training
IN administrative work and education Is
doing much but they have affected such
n small percentage OF the populat ton that
