Sentiments of Taft.

In his reply to a letter from Senior
Iglesias, President Taft expressed his
sentiments in favor of American citizen
ship for Porto Rico. Under date of
Aprf 10, last year. tie President wrote:
my dear Mr.. Iglesias: l am in favor of
granting American citizenship to the peo-
pie of Porto Rico The connection be-
tween Porto Rico and the United States
has been. from the beginning. regarded
as permanent. Porto Rico came to us
with the hearty good will of both the
American and Porto Rican people, and 1
believe that both as a matter of senti-
ment and practical justice the .orto
Ricans should be made citizens. At the
same time. 1 believe that our duty to
the island will be best discharged, and
Porto Kico's interests will be best sub
served, by affording the largest oppor-
tunity for the development of local ira
ditions and habits. which are very differ

Passed a Year Ago.

The bill passed the House almost a
year ago and has been tied up in the
Senate committee ever since. Lack OF
quorum had prevented previous action
by the committee, following hearings
held during the last session. After two
hours discussion at hearing last Fri
day the bill was ordered to be reported
favorably.
What American occupation has done
for Porto Rico was one OF the argu-
ments used by Santiago Iglesias, repre-
senting the Porto Rico Labor Fedora
ton. in pleading for American citizen
ship for a people loyal to the nation
which has adopted them. He was one
of the principal witnesses before the

BILL PENDING IN SENATE

ISLAND TAKES GREAT STRIDES
Santiago Iglesias Points Out Won
derful Advancement Due to
American Institutions.

Despite the fact that the present adj
m1nistration has less than ten days more
to live, the prospects for citizenship for
Porto Ricans during the Taft regime are
considered excellent. The bill granting
citizenship to the inhabitants of the is
land possession. already passed by the
House, was yesterday placed on the Sen
ate calendar with the recommendation of
the Senate committee on Pacific Islands
and Porto Rico that it be passed. Ad-
vocates of the bill are confident of its
being enacted into law, because Presi-
dent Taft has declared his advocacy of
the principle.
The only possible impeachment to its
passage is that the Senate might tack
on amendments in which the House will
refuse to concur. So far, however. no
amendment sentiment has developed in
the Senate.

Special at the Pavilion To-day.

Judge ben" B. Lindsey appears per-
sonally in Saved by the Juvenile
Court or "Fighting Crime" in three
parts. The dramatic pictorial presenta
ton of great institution that has reyo-
lutionized the criminal laws treatment
of children. To Judge Lindsey's court
room in Denver have journeyed repre-
sentatiyes from almost every American
city and ambassadors, Japan, Spain,
England. France and Germany, with the
result that the idea championed by
Judge Lindsey has taken root in every
civilized nation of the world. Instead
of the ancient cruelties that Scared,
mangled and ruined, children are now be-
inc treated with mercy, kindness and
vet firnness that their youth demands.
Not only is money saved to society, but
men and women are being made. Judge
Lindsey does not claim 70 be the founder
of the iuvenile court. He insists that
it is a growth; but he is acknowledged
as the father of the Juvenile court, be-
cause he has done most to advance the
idea. Out of desire TO give widest
ublicity TO the work that has claimed
his 6feis devotion, Judge Lindsey con-
sented TO the taking of these pictures
the first and only time that the juvenile
court and its founder have come under
the latest improvement in motion pho
fooraphy. You are doubtless reading
the articles written by Judge Lindsey,
AT present appearing in one of Americas
leading magazines. By seeing this film,
aSayed by the Juvenile Court" yon will
oet acquainted with this fearless advo-
cate OF true justice and real freedom.
You will meet, face to face, the man,
who at the risk of political and social
humiliation, dared to expose the under
handed dealings of corrupt politicians
and grasping, unprincipled corporations.
This may be your one and only chance
OF seeing Judge Lindsey in pictures.
Don't miss the opportunity. Special ar
will be made to take care
of the large crowds that win attend.
The management requests all to come
as early as possible, and thus reduce
to minimum the chance OF being dis
appointed in seeing this subject.
