 aft, in statement made pub
 Iic here tonight, characterizes
 Secretary Garrison's arraienment
 of him for his attitude on Phil
 IpPIne affairs as unjust, vehen1-

 says, that ! have not been un-

 The statement in part follows:
 Mir Holman and MT Loomis of the Oakland Tribune asked me. when in san Francisco in September to com ment on Nlr Jones article I did not see MT. Jones or hold any communi- cation with him before his article was published IL was sent in man uscript to me at San Francisco. where l first saw and read it.

The letter of Mir Jones which MT Garrison publishes. greatly injures Jones crcditibility as a witness and I greatly regret that he should put himself in such an equivocal and indefensible position.
 The justice of the general descrip- tion of the bad effects of the present policy in the islands. to which l re- ferred in my comment does not how ever depend on the creditibility of one witness. The success which attended our policy in the Philippines was largely due to the admirable quality of the civil servants who were the guiding force in the bureaus and de- partments. It was model colonial service. made up of men who knew the language, the people. the history of the government and it's aims.
