~ uoralso Journal spse,A, ,sAsso wt,l


Washington, Jan 2.-lformer Pres
ident Taft today told the senate com
mittee working on the administration
bill for Philippine Independence that
the people of the Islands, in his opin-
ion. would be untitled for self-gov-
eminent for the next thirty years
probably for the next half century,
Democratic party promises Of indie
pendence. he asserted, had been fruit
full Of unrest to which he attributed
In a measure the recent revolutionary
disturbances.
Neither Presidents Mckinley Roose-
welt nor himself. he said, contem-
plated turning the Philippines over to
the people before they were educated
for government. He quoted from
President wilson's writings that self
government is not mere form OF in
stituti1n, but a form of characters.
I'VE cannot present the Filipino
people with character" Mr. TAFT
said. 1T must be acquired. You cam
not make over people in one genera
ton. The time that will be neces-
sary to train the Filipino people for
self-government is the time that VIII
be necessary TO make them an Eng
disappearing people. If you give these
people independence now, or by 1920,
either Diaz would arise in the Philip
pines or they would get into a con-
ditlon that caused the fall of Dlaz N
