Conrado Benitez Contro-
verts Idea That People of
Islands Are "Savages."

The percentage of literacy among the
little brown brothers. of the Philippine
Islands is as high as in some of the
southern states-higher than in Greece,
Italy, Portugal. Rumania, Serbia and
some of the new countries whose indie
pendence is being recognized by the
allies. The fact that 10 per cent of the
inhabitants of the Philippines are liter
ate, as shown in cabled report on the
census 10 the War Department from
Vice Gov. Yeater at Manila, is par
ticularly interesting now when an official
commission from the islands, represent
ing all shades of thought and all
branches of activity in this United States
dependency, is here in Washington
urging Congress to declare the Filipino
people absolutely free and a distinct

View of College Dean.

Conrado Benitez. dean of the college
of liberal arts, University Of the Philip
pines, who is a graduate Of the Uni
versity Of Chicago, and former editor of
the Philippine Citizen. who is a member
of the official commission, says by way
of dissipating the opinion of many in
the United States that the islands are
peopled by naked savages and wild men:
1.-The fact is that of 10000. 900 inhabi-
tants of the Philippines 100000 are a
Christian and civilized people. and the
500, 900 nom Christians are not typical Of
the Filipino people. The 100000
Christian Filipinos living today deeply
resent the many hbels committed against
them"
IT is pointed out there is every reason
for the literacy of the Philippines to be
still higher within the next few years
through the action of the Philippine
legislature at its last session in voting
80. 000, 900 pesos to extend the educa-
tional system so that schools will be
available to every child and youth in
the Philippines.
