SUGGEST plan To
DEMOCRATIC PARTY
Delegate from Philippines to
Talk independence
With Wilson.

Washington. Jan. ia conference
on Philippine independence will be-
held between President-elect Wilson
and Manuel Quezon, Philippine dele
gate in congress. early in February
Mr.. Quezon. who left yesterday for
Boston to address the Atlantic club
tonight on the independence issue in
suggestions in his message to con-
gress. said that he planned later to
talk over the whole question with
Governor Wilson.
In his Boston speech in reply to
President Taft and his presentation of
the case to President-Wilson. Mr..
Quezon said he would suggest prac-
tical plan by which the democratic
party might carry out the pledge of
Philippine independence.
1.-The president" said Mr.. Quezon
in a statement last night SHOULD send
to the archipelago as governor gen.
eral a man who sympathizes with and
pine independence and who has the
courage of his convictions. That is of
vital importance. A governor general
can make or mar independence plans
as he wishes; he could. If he wished,
bring about the establishment Of an
independent government within the
four years for which Governor Wilson
has been elected. I believe congress
viii pass the Jones bill for an ex- .
perimental period Of eight years and
absolute independence thereafter, but
we have a fight ahead Of us.
Even without the enactment of the
Jones bill. the president. II he wished,
could of his own authority establish
a provisional Philippine government.
The real change within the eight
years provisional period proposed by
the Jones bill ia the establishment
Of an upper house OF the Philippine
pinos. This the president can do by
appointing as members of the Philip
pine commission. now the upper
house. only Filipinos. instead of Amer
icans now constituting the majority" /"
MIR. Quezon said he represented in
and file OF the Philippine people.

In Purchase of Cotton Cloths
Island Exports Show
Big Increase.

Washington, Jan. 13.-For the first
time in a period covering approx
mately a year the Philippine Islands
have become the greatest purchaser
of American manufactured cotton
cloths. Fifteen years ago it would
have been difficult to obtain enough

considered excellent.
Reports show that for the ten
months ending with October, the
Philippines purchased from American
manufacturers cotton cloths amount
ing to $4,121,646, exceeding slightly
the amount of such cloths purchased
by China and doubling the amount
purchased by Central America.
In other words, the islands pur-
chase seventy per cent of their cotton
cloth in the United States. The total
Philippine imports of merchandise for
the ten months amounted to $53,508.-
l3O, of which forty per cent came
from the United States.
The total exports from the Philip
pine islands for the ten months end
ing with October were $4,000, 900 as
compared with s33.000,0OO for the
similar period Of the preceding year.
The increases are general in all Phil
ippine products except sugar which
shows decrease from $4,000 to
184, 900 tons.
The greatest increase was in Ma
Mia hemp, the money value of which
was increased from 1855. .4SO to $17,-
7O8,330. During the same period the
customs revenues increased approxi-
mately $1,700,00O.
