BEAUTIFUL BERMUDAS
WILLIAMSBURG SOJOUUNERS DE-
LIGHTED WITH THE SCENERY

The Bermuda Islands lie in the
Atlantic Ocean about six hundred
miles east OF Charleston. South Caro-
lima. They have an especial interest
for Virginians. because of their close
connection formerly with this part Of
the continent. Under the third
charter granted in 1912 to the Virginia |
Company Of London they were made !
a part Of the colony of Virginia. but
the Virginia Company shortly after
wards sold them to the Sumner
Islands Company. after which they
had their own independent existence.
AS the Vrginians were the first in
America to have in 1919 lawmakinR
body. which we still call our General
Assembly. so the Bermudas have a
pardonable pride in claiming the
second lswmaking body held in 1920.
Notwithstanding separate govern
ment, they continued until the Ameri-
can Revolution. however. 70 have a
close connection of a trading charac-
ter with Norfolk and Hampton. and
many sloops plyed between Virginia
and the Bermudas. The results OF
the American Revolution. with the
British Navigation Act on one hand
and the United States Tariff on the
other, entirely cut off this trade. anc
the intercourse has never been revived
TO any great extent. Ii is interesting

gressnan William A. Jones, OF
Virginia, chairman Of the iusular
affairs committee. sharply ridiculeo
President Taft's attack on the Dem

ment of the Philippines as "desPot-
;c" and criminally wasteful, a"
charged GovernOr-General Forbes
with illegal acts. alleged that
funds appropriated by the Ameri-
can congress for civil expenses was
used on an automobile highway for
the benefit of the American officials
and, in refutiug Mr. Taft's conten-
ton that the Philippines were not
causing the Americans a financial
burden, said the islands are costing
the American people between $780,
OOO.OOO and $40. O.OOO. 600 annually.
Mr.. Jones delivered the address
primarily to reply to PresidentTa s.

ill-taste that an outgoing president
should attempt to advise the in
coming president on policy re-
Rarding the Philippines when the
former in his administration had
done practically nothing toward the
relief of the islanders.
Mr. Jones also intimated that Z
