SLAVERY CHARGED
 IN PHILIPPINES Dean Worcester Alleges That Practice is Encour-
 aged By Assembly.
PEoNS ON THE FARMS
President Says the United States Must Act Toward Fiiipinos in
 Capacity of Guardian.

Washington, Aug. 25.-Slavery in the full meaning of the word exists throughout the Philippines, even in the city of Manila, and peonage is gen. cral in the islands, according to a special report of Commissioner Wor- cester made to the insular govern ment. It has not been received here by the war department, but copies are in the hands of other officials.
 Children Sold for Profit.
 Filipinos in some pats of the is- lands commonly capture children and , sell them into slavery tor profit. Some children have been snti. cd from their homes by slave agents u''E promises of scholarships in schools and some of those in an instance which Mir. Worcester reports in detail were sold and others were farmed out for mo- ney. He cites the case of thirteen year-old girl bought for some pigs, rice, chickens and cloak. The su- preme court of the islands released the slave trader on the ground that no crime had been committed because no physical force had been used. This one case, Mr. Worcester says, has blocked other slavery prosecutions.
 Assembly Encourages Slavery.
 The Philippine Assembly has block ed laws for the suppression of the traffic, he says, because many of it's members come from provinces where slavery flourishes. One of his reports on the traffic. he says, lies tabled in the Philippine assembly.
 The commissioned declares that he had great difficulty in getting facts of slave cases and intimates that re- ports were withheld by the officers of the Philippine constabulary. He cites the case of Philippine assemblyman caught red-handed owning slave girl in Manila. and says:
 T could obtain conclusive evil dence of hundred. a thousand, ten thousand of them, but why multiply cases? It is simply case of time and work"
 He charges that Philippine assem- blymen maintain peonage on their own farms.
 Views 0f the President.
 Whatever is done by the United States with respect to the Philippine Islands is to be gauged by the best in- terests of the people of the archipel- ago and not by what might be con- strued as selfish purposes of the Am erican government. That is the view President Wilson, and Francis Burton Harrison, the newly appointed gover- nor general, take of the question ot Philippine independence, according tO House.
 President Wilson says that the United States in the profoundest sense is trustee of the Philippines and to carry out it's trusteeship wisely is the keynote of the policy of his admin istration. It was indicated that while no proposal for immediate independ- ence now is considered policy of preparation for granting independ- ence within q few years will be pur- sued by the United States.

Good Roads Prevent Disease

Few persons, on first thought, would
see any possibleconnection between goot
roads and good health. Yet the Stat,
Board of Health of Kansas says that
good roads can and will prevent disease
How? By the removal of weeds and
trash. Weeds and trash prevent the
prompt evaporation of moisture ano
promote retention of ground water. This
makes ideal breeding spots for mosque
toes, flies and other insects, which are
known as disease carriers, not to men
ton chinchbugs, grasshoppers and other
insects which are crop damagers. Fur
thermore, an underground of weeds in.
vites the dumping of garbage and refuse
by offering eoncealment, of which fact
careless and thoughtless people are prone
to take advantage, thus increasing the
facility of insect breeding and providing
these insect carriers with proper materi-
al for disease transmission
Good roads also prevent disease by
providing good drainage. Many farms
have no means of drainage except by
bitches along roadways. Open bitches,
clear of brush and debris, with hardened
surface and proper fall, affords these
farms the opportunity of Kidding them
selves of manv stagnant pool. The re-
moval of weeds, proper road grading and
surface hardening, insures prompt drain
age of all pool, ditch and surface water,
removing the possibility of insect breed
ers, for none can multiply. without
moisture.
Dry roads offer pedestrians, and nota-
bly, children who are compelled to walk
to and from school, dry shoes and feet.
While colds are due to specific germs, yet
it is a well-known fact that cold, wet
feet and chilled limbs lower the resistance
of individuals and make them more fav-
orable subjects for infections of the re-
spiratory passages, including pneumonia
and tuberculosis. Good roads prevent
disease by setting an example to adjon-
ing farm premises.
Good roads promote travel and set an
example to the farmers whose premises
are bordered by them. The comparison
OF well-graded, clean highway with an
unkempt and trashy barnyard adjoining
is sufficient to stimulate every landown
er to cleanup. Pride compels him to
offer to passers by neat appearing and
house and barnyard. Results
are only too obvious. Good roads are
active disease prevention agencies, aside
from their financial and commercial
value.
