of Americans in the Philippines. ana
Americans In the United States, on the
subject Of independence. is not the
same.
The attitude of the American gov
eminent, and the great mass OF the
people of the United States, is to con-
slider the Philippine question from the
unselfish viewpoint of what is best
for the Filipino people Ninety-nve
per cent of the opposition to inde-
pendence emanates from American in
vestors in the islands who are quite
naturally more interested in the size
of their dividends than the freedom Of
an alien people.
The unfortunate feature OF the sit
uation is that the opponents OF indie
pendence, in order to convince the peo-
pie of the United States that the Fill
pinos should not be granted their in
dependence, find it necessary to libel
an entire race. To tell sensitive
Christian people that they shall not
have their promised independence be-
cause they are not fit for it will In
the end prove a mistaken policy. 1t
will only make their demand for in
dependence the stronger.
At the present time, however. the
masses Of the Filipino people still
have absolute confidence in the good

gratitude to Uncle Sam has not as
yet been impaired by the misrepre-
sensations of the retentionists. Their
leaders are intelligent enough to dis
tinguish between those Americans
who oppose their aspirations to in
dependence for purely selfish reasons.
and the great mass Of the American
people whom they know desire this
government to do by the Filipinos
only that which is just and right.
In this connection. 1t is interesting
to review the development Of the pres
ent friendly relationship between the
Filipino and American peoples.
Previous to 1915 the Philippine
American relationship Is declared to
have been not Of the best. But with
the passage In that year of the Jones
law by practically both the Republican
and Democratic memberships of Con-
gress, better feeling developed. This
'better feeling" has now grown into
a very strong bond Of sympathy and
affection.
The happy attitude Of the Filipino
people toward America is due not prin.
cipally to the fact that Americans
have shown the Filipinos how to make
their country better place to live in
not principally to the fact we have

Philippines of one Of the finest edu-
cational systems in the world; nor to

Declares Filipinos All
Want independence
Former Illinois Congressman, Back From Philippines
Gives Interesting Views on lslSnd Affairs
By FORMER CONGRESSMAN CLYDE ~ rAvENNER


Jones law AmeA gave the Filipinos
her word Of hollS- that as soon as
stable government could be establish
ed we would withdraw our sovereignty
from the Philippine Islands.
1t might, at first thought, seem
strange that in their sincere appre-
citation of all that we have done for
them the Filipino people should place
most emphasis on the promise to grant
them their independence. For 1t can
not be successfully denied that on the
whole the United States has treated
the Filipino people better than any
nation ever treated dependent alien
people in all the days since the curtain
rose on the dawn Of civilization. Ii
we do not spoil it, it is record that
we can be proud of.
But it really isn't so strange that
the Filipino should love us more for
our promise to give them sovereignty
over themselves than for our other
good works, for which. after all, out
side of army and navy expenditures,
the Filipinos have been taxed, and
properly so, for every cent of the cost.
II we but reverse the situation, and
place ourselves in the shoes OF the
Filipinos, which cannot be said to be
an unfair way Of getting at the other
fellows viewpoint, we shall see that
it is not strange.
Suppose that Great Britain or any
other power that you can think OF by re-
ferring to your geography or history
should impose its sovereignty upon US
against our will and then give us an
infinitely better government than we
now enjoy7 Could any such foreign
power ever succeed in convincing US
| that it had our welfare more at heart
than we have ourselves.
| But to return to my story, the Fill
pinos heartily thanked US for the
Jones law, considering 1t q sort OF
covenant between the Filipino and
American peoples, and Immediately
applied themselves to the task OF set
ting up the prescribed stable govern
ment And they set 1t up. 1t Is In
the Philippines now. Americas own
representative in the Islands, the gov
ernor general, officially reports 1t is
| there, and recommends that since the
Filtpinos have earnestly fulfilled Their
part of the agreement, America should
be as prompt In carrying out its part
Of the contract.
| So that, in few words, 1t Is not
the Philippines that now are on trial
but the United States.
| There Is but one answer. America
will carry out its agreement. And
since we are going to do 1t, we cannot
afford to bubble and split hairs and
hesitate until our hardness robs US
of half the glory of our achievement
Let us act with promptness and will
ingness really worthy Of America.
And when the people of the United
States set up the Philippine Republic
as the first Christian democracy OF
the Far East, they will be building 8
monument to themselves that will
stand throughout eternity. On that
day the beacon light Of hope, humanity
and justice will fash around the world
Such an example by America will &C
complish more for the weak and strug
Cling peoples Of the earth than the
four year world war, with all its cost
In life and treasure.

Grip.

Grip usually starts just the same
as cold with watery discharge
from the nose. You are much more
likely to contract the grip when you
have a cold. For that reason when
grip is prevalent you should go t.
bed as soon as you feel that you are
taking cold and stay in bed until
fully recovered which should not be
long if you take Chamberlain
Cough Remedy. Three days in bed
now is better than three weeks later
on.

100 Per Cent Relief.
"The aim of the organization Is 100
per cent relief, the relief which puts
those aided on a self-supporting basis,
which instills in them confidence for
the future, places in their hands the
means with which to begin life anew,
and in their hearts the courage to go
on. Work, that is the prescription
subscribed and provided by those loyal
men and women who have journeyed
into perilOus places for the sake Of
their fellow men; to make these peo-
pie independent for the future, to en-
courage the pickering fire Of national
pride.
"There are 1921 workers employed
IL the industrial establishments Of the
Near East Relief, where wool is fur
nished for the women to spin and
weave, and all the girls who are strong
enough are washing wool, sewing beds,
grinding and sitting wheat, tailoring
and learning to make lace. The big
problem is to make these women indie
pendent.
about 500 American men and wo-
men, Near East Relief workers, are
now in the field, including SO eminent
physicians and surgeons, 76 nurses,
mechanics, Is industrial experts, 16
agriculturists, IA psychologists, 1877
relief workers, % supply and trans
port workers, 10 teachers, 20 admins
traitors, "a secretaries, engineers and
40 army officers.
Where Money Goes.
Funds for relief purposes are dis
tributed in two ways: First, the vari-
GUS relief centers are authorized by
the Executive Committee to draw sight
drafts on New York for specific
amounts each month; second, by sup
plies purchased in America, the major
portion of which are shipped to the
committee warehouses at Derindje,
and the remainder either to Beyrouth
or Batoum.
1.-THE relief is rapidly expanding and
meeting the situation, but the future
depends on the continuation of Amerl-
can support"
According to Mr.. Hemphill, the need
for American help to see the destitute
peoples of the Near East through the
crisis of present conditions is greater
now than ever before on account of the
uncertainty as to the future, the trucu-
lence of the Turkish government and
the danger of bolshevism from Russia,
which threatens to engulf the whole of
Armenia.
Who Direct the Work.
Mr.. Hemphill is the Chairman of the
Executive Committee of the Near Eas
Relief. Other members are DIR. James
L. Barton, Secretary of the Foreign
Department Of the American Board
