dependence without further delay.
 Congressman King is one of an in- creasing number of Republicans in the House who are urging quick action on Philippine independence. Mir. King is the author of bill which pro- vides that within one year the Philip pine government, under presidential proclamation, may assemble a conven- tion and frame a constitution.
 After the constitution is ratified by the Filipino people the President may recognize the Philippine islands as "a separate and self-governing nation" The transfer of authority is to be completed within one year. Provision is made for safeguarding American in vestments in the Philippines and for the providing of cOaling stations and submarine bases in the islands by the United States.
 Word from the Philippines Is that the people expect early independence and will be sorely disappointed if they do not get it.
 No nation has the right" said Con- gressman King ito hold another people in peonage, even though it may be argued by the professoriate that the condition is simply one of 'tutelage.'
 "A little more observance of the golden rule in national and interna- tional affairs would soon dispei that desire for exploitation, the fiercest foe of freedom in the world today. "When we went to the Philippines we declared before the whole world that we were not actuated by any self ish desire of conquest or territorial aggrandizement, but solely by humani- | tarian impulses"
 I Congressman King called attention to the fact that Filipinos are now raising funds to erect a monument to l Admiral Dewey, which he said was in- <! directly tribute to the American peo- ! pie as well as to Dewey. He recalled 1 the cable that Dewey had sent to i President Mckinley, which was as follows:
 "In my opinion these people (Fili- pinos) are superior in intelligence and more capable of self government than the natives of Cuba, and am familiar with both"
 Congressman King then recited the preamble to the Jones law, passed August %, 1916, and declared it was 6 1 definite pledge of independence. The preamble stated it is as 1t has always been the purpose of the people Oi the United States to withdraw their sovereignty over the Philippine Island: and to recognize their independence as 1 soon as a stable government can be ' established therein"
 Congressman King stated there was no question but that the Filipinos hat established the specified stable gov
 ernment and, therefore, it is the
 solemn duty of the United States tt grant the promised independence.
