was shown. Congress finally enacted
the Jones law, which created Il legisIa-
ture. whose house and senate are en-
tirely constituted of native Filipinos
elected by the people themselves.
The result of this policy has been to
create confidence as to the liberal. al
truistic attitude of the people of the
United States. Today the Filipinos are
loyal to this country. They are anX-
ious to make any sacrifice for the bene-
fit of their benefactor. The genuine
eagerness of our people to stand by
America at this critical moment is not
only from the fact that we are grateful
for liberal concessions bestowed, but
also because of what prompted this
mighty nation whose capital is in
Washington to enter the world war A
war which. in the words of the chief
executive. was Tor the avowed purpose
of giving small nations the right to
live as nations.
so to the Filipinos Americas war is
their war. and in fighting for her they
feel that they are also fighting for the
establishment and maintenance in the
future of their own government. This
has made possible the national guard
of the Philippines"
A word as to the Philippine constab-
ulary Is not amiss in this connection,
since. as body of soldiery trained by
our military officers, who also will

but her wish was never realized. In
the bitterest moments of her storm
tossed later life she turned to us hope
fully for assistance She and her nus
band loved the ideals of democracy and
freedom that were being welded into the
foundations of our new republic.
When, during the French revolution,
she sent her only son. George Wash
ington Lafayette, to America, she wrote
to President Washington: 4 put my
dear child under the protection OF the
United States, which he has been ac-
customed to look upon as his second coun-
try, and which l myself have always con-
sidered as being our future home
My wish is that my son may become MT
to fulfill the duties of citizen of the
United States. whose feelings will al
ways agree with those of q French citi-
zen."
Lafayette made two voyages to
America at this period in his career.
and when he returned to France the
second time he found Adrienne in per
feet sympathy with his dream of a
French republic. What this dream
cost them both is told in the tragic
events of their later life. but those
dark days We're always lighted BY an
understanding and love in perfect
