finances in excellent condition-the to-
tai Indebtedness is only $4,000. 900
but the people of the islands believe
that a point has now been reached
where the system is a serious check
on progress. 1t is suggested that if
approval from Washington is desired a
sufficient precaution would be for the
President to approve each loan before
it is made. Such a system would be
much less cumbrous than the present
one, which calls for affirmative legis-
lation from Congress.
Finally, the local government wants
power to enact laws which will bring
about the development of the natural
resources of the archipelago. The pub
lie lands are the great wealth of the
islands. after which come timber re-
sources and mines. The commission
pleaded vainly for thirteen years for Il
revision Of the public land laws to a
form which would stimulate agricul-
ture. 1t seems certain that an increase
in the power of the local government
in this respect will be followed by
faster progress and development.
Americans and Filipinos are agreed
that the plan of insular administration
ganzation is provided for in a bill
whose preamble brings up the question
of Philippine independence has given
rise to dispute which the body of the
bill would never have awakened
Americans in the islands view the
future of the Philippines with IA senti-
ment that it is hard for their brethren
at home to understand. The progress
that has been made is astounding, and
it has not come easily. Every step of
it was won by men who gave their
lives to the work. and held their lives
lightly where that work was concerned

PHILIPPINE PROBLEMS
W.-The Biggest One Of
All.
By Frederic J. Haskin.

All eyes in the Philippines are turned
of the islands rests with the American
people. That we have come to a crisis
in our dealings with them is obvious
to every one. What do the people
most concerned think of it-those to
whom 1t is the biggest question on
earth. and not merely a matter to be
SKINNED on the way to the office?
There are three principal political
parties in the Philippines. All of them
are in favor of legislation in which the
United States shall go on record as
subscribing to the principle of the
ultimate independence of the islands.
The nacionalista party is the strong
est and most numerous. This party ex-
pressed itself as in favor of the pass
age of the Jones bill, preferably
amended in certain particulars, but
passed in its original form rather than
not at all. (They referred to that Jones
bill which states in its preamble that
the United States has never had any
idea of conquest or territorial aggran-
dizement. AS passed by the Senate, the
premable was considerably modified)
The progresista party also favors such
measure, but the progresistas want a
bill which will establish a government
responsible in local affairs to the peo-
pie of the islands rather than to the
War Department or to the governor
general of the Philippines. The third
party wanted the preamble of the
Jones bill amended so as to set fixed
date for the independence of the archi-
pelaEo.
This third party is an offshoot of the
nacionalistas. and apparently repre-
sents that section of public opinion
which is calling for quick independ-
ence. There are also a few Filipinos
who oppose any bill which has for it's
object the separation OF the islands
from the United States. The nacional-
ista and progresista parties include the
great bulk of the people who are in
terested in politics at all.
These two parties want a definite af-
firma ton from the United States to tho

/
some day. Such independence Is their
national ideal. and it has been prom
ised them SO often by individual
Americans that they feel some definite
and authoritative statement of our
position to be their due. Every Fill
pino looks forward to the day when
the islands will be governed by Fill
pinos. But as nearly as the sentiment
OF 100000 such people can be esti-
mated it may be stated as fact that
no considerable section of the F'ilipnos
desire separation at this time The
more serious thinkers among the ma
tives Will not even express an opinion
as to when such separation will be
desira BILE.
Thus the attitude of the F'ilipinos
may be summed up: A small party de-
string a fixed date for independence, a
few unorganiZed individuals opposed
to all talk of separation, great ma
Jority of the people calling for a rec
ognition of the principle of ultimate
independence, but setting the time in
the indefinite future.
Americans in the islands were APP
parently opposed to the preamble of
the Jones bill, but SO far as the adj
ministrative features of the measure
are concerned they agree with the Fill
pinos in desiring to have them en-
acted into law. Opinion is practically
unanimous that the Philippines have
outgrown their present form of gov
eminent. AS it stands today there is
an appointive commission for the upper
house and an elective assembly for the
lower house. The upper house has ex-
elusive legislative authority over a
third of the archipelago tMindanao-
Sulul. Yet the lower house must pass
all appropriation bills. even where the
money is to be expended outside it's
jurisdiction.
The bad features of this system were
shown when the legislature failed to
agree on budget for three successive
years. Now things seem to be running
smoothly, since the appropriation bill
for the year has been passed and the
two houses are cooperating, but a
matter of fact the situation is I'M
realize that fundamental changes are
Of their government. so they put all
other issues aside until they see what
these changes will be.
Local government is not only ham
pered by the fact that an arm Of the
legislature must appropriate where it
cannot legislate, but also because the
Philippine legislature has little con-
troll over the sources of revenue in the
islands. Customs receipts and internal
revenues are the two sources whence
the administration draws funds to keep
it running. Yet the legislature under
the present organic act cannot pass
any effectual laws concerning either
Of these forms of taxation. That pow
er is vested in the United States Con-
gress.

results in bringing light into the dark
places. but the American record in the
Philippines surpasses anything that
has been done by England or any other
nation. Some day we will put up a
monument to the men who died in the
Philippine service. But those who fill
their places today think that the best
monument will be an assurance that
their work shall not be lost.
We have our duty to these dead men
to consider We have our duty toward
the Filipino, toward the pagan and
the Moro. toward the Americans and
Europeans who have thrown their lot
in with that of the islands. toward the
international family of powers. What
that duty may be. each man must de-
eide for himself: but this much of each
mans duty is certain: that he do not
decide without considering to the full
the possible consequences Of his action.
