sition to the wishes of the Ameri-
can people, to change the bill as
Japan demanded, it blazed the
path which it trod again in those
fatal days at the close of the last
session. There is in principle no
difference between the administra-
tion's frightened trucking to ia
pan on the one hand and its cow
ering submission to the threat that
a nationwide strike on the other
hand. In principle, one was the
surrender of our sovereignty to a
foreign power; the other an alb
dication of the government to a
domestic faction.
The excuse for permitting both
humiliations is that each was the
easiest and quickest way of getting
out of the trouble. Anybody can
always avoid each difficulty as it
arises by yielding TO the trouble
maker; but every trouble averted
in this way breeds many others.
If either of these cases had in
volved nothing more than policy,
they might have been compromised
with honor; but both we're rooted
in principle and principle cannot
be compromised without dishonor
and, in the final outcome, without
certain disaster.
In the japanese dispute an up
standing government would have
said: The question of what aliens
shall come among US is the exclus-
i've business of the United State :
alone. The representatives of fine
American people will weigh all
arguments, and, unawed, unafraid,
and uncoerced, decide what is best
for the United States"

NO ABANDONMENT
OF THE PHILIPPINES

No wonder that an administra-
ton with this conception of Amer
ica's work in the world and place
among the nations proposes also to
surrender the wards of the nation
in the Philippines to the iron rule
of Japan. Who now are better
off, the Pilipinos or the Mexicans9
Never in the history of che world
has any government done so much
in so short time for backward
people as we have done for the
Filipinos. We have distributed
the land among the natives, who
today, for the first time, own the
soil they till. We have policed
the country so well that where vi
olence, robbery and murder once
reigned, life and property are as
secure as they are anywhere in the
United States itself. We have
built roads and schoolhouses and
taught the arts of peace. We
have transformed squalor into
prosperity, want into plenty and
misery into happiness.
Our trade with the PHILIPPINES
has increased from few thousand
dollars to almost twenty five mill
ion dollars annually. These is
lands are the richest on earth, and
will soon develop a commerce with
us of at least one hundred million
dollars year. They are the
American commercial outpost in
the Pacific, our center of trade at
the door of the East. What would
we think of Holland if she aban-
doned Java9 Or of Great Britain
if she surrendered Ceylon9 Or of
France if she fled from Morocco
and Algiers9 An administration
that would strike the flag in the
Philippines ought not to be kept
in power.

THE ABATEMENT OF
AMERICAN SOVEREIGNTY

SO many and so great have been
the humiliations which the admin
STATIONS weakness, timidity, and
lack of any consistent policy has
brought upon us from every quar-
ter of the globe that another grave
indignity to the United States was
hardly noticed and is already for
gotten. Yet it involves the very
sovereignty of the nation. 1t is
incredible that we should have al
lowed foreign power to dictate
our legislation. Yet exactly that
was done and in a manner that in
volved the very essence of nation
hood-the absolute and hitherto
unquestioned right to choose what
aliens shall be admitted to the
country and what aliens shall be
excluded.
When at the last moment and
almost upon the final passage of
the immigration bill, the admins
tration forced Congress, against
its will and judgment and in oppo-

struck Russia without a declara-

WILSON KEPT US OUT OF WAR"

Nothing but this campaign
catchword: THE administration
has kept us out of war"
With Whom?
If we had been in danger of war
during the last three years and the
administration had with honor
saved US from that tragedy, that
great fact would have gone far to
atone for the general malpractice
of craftsmanship from which the
nation has suffered. This is not a
time for partisan rancor. No
American should allow personal
animosity against the President of
the United States to override his
judgment on greater questions of
the nations well-being.
We ought to consider all the
administrations acts with free,
open, and unprecedented minds and
with a sincere desire to decide in
the administrations favor if the
facts will permit it. We ought to
be happy that we are able to ad
nit that this administration and
that any other administration, past
and to come, always has and al
ways will intend to do the best it
can for the welfare of the Republic.
In this spirit, then, let us see
whether the claim that the admin
istration has kept us out of war"
is true or whether it is one of
those false and hollow campaign
slogans which, too often, have
taken the place of truth and rea-
son in the heat and fury of the
American campaigns.
