promise of freedom whenever the Fill
pinos have demonstrated their ability
to maintain a stable government, fin
ally was approved Thursday by the
senate. The vote was 81 to %.
Senator Borah, Republican, declared
the elimination of the amendment
after it had passed the senate was an
index of public sentiment against re-
linquishing the islands, and meant the
United States had decided to keep the
islands for all time.
"Public opinion has been so clear, y
said ne, THAT we may conclude and
the Philippine people should decide
that the independence question has
been settled for all time unless the
fortunes of war should change the
American policy"
The house is expected to approve the
conference measure within a few days
and send it to the President. 1t pro

features had to be eliminated in orde
to get an agreement for approval o
the bill at this session.
