ever that it will make the voyage to
! New York before next May. BY that

Lakehurst. n. j.. will be ready for
| its reception. With the completion of
| the Lakehurst hangar, the United
States will be prepared to construct
airships similar to the R-3S. At the

! Bedford is the only one in the world
| where such construction is possible.
! The Lakehurst hangar and the R-3s
are the largest things of their kind in
! the world The R-3S is 6945 feet long
| and S5.5 feet in diameter. 1t is de-
| signed for a speed of sixty knots an
, hour and a cruising radius of $500
knots. Its six Subeam-Cossack mo-
| tors have $50 horsepower, and its gas
volume is 2.724. 900 cubic feet. 1t has
| dead weight of thirty-three tons
and a useful lift of forty five tons. Its
| working complement is six officers ana
eighteen enlisted men. The RIA was
643 feet long. its gas volume was
10000 cubic feet and its speed was
fifty knots.
Ninety Thousand Recruits Sought.
According to Adjt. Gen. Harris. the
strength of the Army at latest re-
ports was 194,37s. or about 10000
short of it's authorized strength under
the reorganization act. To meet that
deficiency. Capt Gerald Egan of the
infantry. has made n suggestion
which has been approved by the War
Department. that every veteran in
the service be made an enlistment
officer to tell prospective recruits the
benefits of the service. onicial figures
show that the weekly average of ap-
plicants for the five years immedi
ately preceding the war U912-1916)
was 700. The weekly average for the
year ended February 80. 1920. year
after enlistments were resumed. was
'210O That was the rehabilitation,
period when great numbers of SOL
diers were passing through the camps.
The weekly average from March l
to June 30. 1920, was $500. That
period includes the intensive efforts
nut forth during the recruit drive last
spring. The weekly average for
July was nearly 1000. These figures
show a steady increase and give the
recruiting service reason to believe
that the turning point has been
reached.
The monthly average of enlistments
in depots and depot posts and in
camps and posts for seven years.
191O-1916, was 3,05S. Since March.
1919. the monthly average has been in
excess of 1900. In July the estimated
strength of the Army was 194.37S.
Almost 10000 men are needed to fill
its ranks. leaving out of consider
alton discharges and desertiops.

lied on hearsay evidence in making
an assertion SO grave against another
people. Here are the facts at once
accurate and incontestible During
the seven years of Philippine auton-
omy we have doubled the length of
frst-class roads. and. all in all. $4,000
kilometers of good roads, bridges
and ferries were added to our trans
portation facilities. In sanitation we
have almost quadrupled the number
of artesian wells; provinces and mu-
nicipalities have been organized into
sanitary districts, with a board of
health in each; ESQ doctors have been
employed as municipal health officers
and there are about 900 sanitary in
spectors.
Feels Safe From Aggression.
The next assertion Of Senator Ster-
ling is that 'it is not advisable to
make the Philippines Independent for
it might lead to an effort on the part
of another world power to dominate
the islands. and it would surely be
resented by the people of the United
States" We claim that for the very
reason that the American people
would be quick to resent any viola
ton of the sovereignty of a Philip.
pine republic, no power would dare
commit acts Of aggression against the
Filipino people. Germany stands to-
day as the living example of the In
evitable fate which overtakes a ma
ton waptonly committing aggression
against another in the interest OF
Aguinaldo. the Fiipinos have faith
in the civilization of the world"
But sift the chaff from the declara'
tions of Senator Sterling and two
facts stand out in bold relief:
% He desires to retain the Philip
nil gateway
to the trade of the orient whicf
as yet has only been scratched
and which offers tremendous oppor'
tunities to the American merchant.
(2) He desires to retain the Philip
pines because ''in their strategical po'
sition." they add to the offensive
strength of the United States in case
of war"
Charges Selfish Interests.
So Mr. Sterling would trample undo,
foot the rights of ten and one-haA:
million people in the interests OF
American commerce and military ex-
however, that Americas purpose in
the Philippines was to be purely al
truistic, that she went there mot to
exploit" nor yet to subjugate the
Filipino people. but to emancipate
them" When President Mckinley pro-
claimed that Iorclole annexation was
not to be thought of, that according
to American code of morals, it was
criminal aggression the Filipinos
rejoiced and the world applauded.
The Filipino people do not desire tc
see Americas position il the orient
impaired. But surely the granting OF
our independence need not jeopardize
Americas eastern interests. These in.
terests and our independence are not
incompatible. Surely arrangements
can be had whereby Americas in
terests can be safeguarded. If she de-
sires to retain foothold in the Phil.
ippines in the form of commercial
concessions and naval bases. she car
have them as well under q Philippine
republic as at present. What more
can be desired?
