WILSON HAS DECIDED
On NO DEFINITE POLICY

II became known Yesterday that Presi-
dent Wilson has fixed upon no hard and
fast policy toward Philippine indepen.
dvnce.
The President does not consider himself
bound in any way to approve the meas
ne fixing 1921 as the date for Philippine
Independence which was reported cut Oy
the DEM cratic majority OF the House
Committee on Insular Affairs at the last
session of Congress.
1t is the Presidents conviction that the
dste at which the Filipinos will become
capable of exercising the powers of full
srlf-government is puzzlinEly problemati-
cal and that a considerable time Will
have to elapse and comprehensive investi-
cations he made before this administra-
tIon Will be justified in adopting a formal
attitude toward the independence Of the
islands.
The Presidents mind is quite clear,
however that the time Is near at hand
when a policy must he adopted for the
rapid development of the islanders to-
ward the exercise Of all the functions OF
S,iT-sUvernmeUt.
Fine President believes that Francis
Burton Harrison Will go to the islands
with 2 mind open as to the details OF
the policy 10 be worked out, but with
settled conviction that the principles on
which President Wilson's attitude toward
the islanders is grounded are sound.

OUEZON DENIES
SLAVERY Charge
Says Object Is to Show Fill
pinos Unfit for Inde-
pendence.
SCORES MIR. WORCESTER
Declares Report but One Instance of
Determined Effort to MiSepre-
sent People of Islands.

Manuel L. QueZon, resident commits
sioner from the Philippines, last night
said that the assertion of Dean c. WOr-
cester, secretary of interior of the Phil
ippine Islands, that slavery and peonage
exists in the Philippines, is new evidence
that prompt action should be taken to
remove every member of the commission.
LAS a Filipino familiar as well as any
body else with conditions in the Phil
ippines, I offer the testimony that slav-
cry does not exist in the Philippines as
an institution said Mr. QueZon. The
statement Of Secretary Worcester is both
false and slanderOus, in that he asserts
that there is slavery even in the city or
Manila, and blames the Philippine As
sembIy for the lack of anti-slaVery laws
In this statement, by innuendo at
least Secretary Worcester accuses the
representatives Of the Filipino people in
the lower House of the Legislature as
Countenancing slavery. The purpose Is
TO present the whole Filipino people As
iuhuman and semi-savage, if not saVaEe
altogether, and therefore absolutely IN
capable of self-gOVernment.
Mr.. Quezon called attention TO the fact
that the Philippine Assembly has only
been organized since October, 1877. and
that previous to this time the Philippine
Commission. Of which Mr. Worcester has
been a member since lIS CEedhlOll' was
the only legislative body in the Islands.
Calls Attack UnwRrrnnted.
The attack is entirely unwarranted,'
continued the commissioner. If slavery
existed in the islands, being hurrld
evil. an anti-slavery law should have
been one of the early acts passed by the
Philippine Commission, when alone It
held legislative authority over the isl
andS.
The report Cf Secretary Worcester is
hut one instance of the determined EFFORT
from certain quarters 10 defeat Philip
pine independence by misTCpresenting the
Filipino people before the people OF the
United States. Secretary Worcester, as
Secretary OF the Interior ana a member OF
the Philippine Commission, draws sal
AIRY of $1,000 a year, and it is but nat
uraI that he should be against permit
ting the FiIipinos to govern themselves.
