THE PHILIPPINES AND PRE-.
PAREDNESS

TF Japan is a possible future
enemy of the United States
as many believe to be the
case then the disposition of the
Philippines has a big bearing
on our preparedness policy.
Here is why.
The Philippines are close to
Japan and 5000 miles from our
own country. The Islands are
not well defended and cannot
be defended except at a stag
gering cost.
In the event of war between
the United States and Japan
the natural strategy for the
mikado would consist in taking
the islands from US as a first
step. Japan could then sit back
and force US to go to the ori-
cnt to fight.
Such a move would greatly
handicap this country. Any
ration that must cross an oce-
an to fight foe wages war
under bad conditions. This
was shown in the Boer war, 1t
was shown in the Russo-Japan
war, it was shown in the Amer
lean revolution.
From a military standpoint
the Philippine islands are a
rock tied to this country's
neck, provided our war is with
an oriental power. This is a
fact that will be borne home to
us if we ever fight with Japan.
No mere Dragging on the part
of our people can change the
facts in the matter. War is
governed by physical condlti-
ons, not by sentiment.
The democratic p0llcy Is 10
give independence to the Phil
ippines as quickly as practical ;
the republican policy is to hold
on to the islands for a longer
period, possibly for all time.
If the democratic policy IS
realized our country will soon
be in a position where if trouble
with Japan should come we
would be able to face our enc
my on equal terms. We would
not be obliged to go to the ori'
ent to fight any more than Ja-
pan would be forced to come to
cur shore.
