The greatest personal victory yet
won In this Democratic convention was
scored by young Filipino by the name
of Jose P. Melencio. He has charge Of
the Philippine Publicity Bureau at
Washington.
He is only twenty-six years old and
received his education in the public
schools of the Philippines-under
American teachers, as be proudly
boasted-and at Georgetown. D. O.
He is remarkably promising young
man.
Speaking with grace. using the best
language and without trace Of en-
barrassment. he presented the claim
Of the Filipinos to independence. The
audience was astonished at the
strength of his argument, the skill
with which he marshaled his facts and
the high tone of his speech. He capti-
waited everyone and committeeman and
visitors paid him the compliment of
rising and cheering when he concluded
his plea.
When one Of the committee asked
him some questions he returned to the
platform and answered them with as
much logic and precision as If he had
taken weeks to prepare his answer. It
was a remarkable triumph.
AS one who began twenty-five years
ago to fight for the promise Of inde-
pendence was proud Of this illustra.
ton of what the Filipino is capable.
