WOOD AND FORBES FINISH THE
PHILIPPINE INVESTIGATION
IN FOUR MONTHS.
WILL SUBMIT REPORTS
MISSION FINDS FRIENDSHIP FOR
U. S. is STRONG THROUGH
OUT ISLANDS.
(westeru Newspaper Union New. service.)

Manila, Z. I.-NIaj. Gen Leonard
| Wood and Cameron b. Forbes, sent
by President Harding to investigate
conditions in the Philippines for the
purpose of guiding the administration
in its policy toward the islands,
reached Manila, having completed a
four months tour of the archipelago
The missions work on inspection
is completed, and as soon as Il brief
confidential report is cabed to Presi-
dent Harding final report of the
missions findings will be prepared.
This is expected to require TWO or
three weeks.
Although General Wood has made
no public announcement on the sub
ject, 1t is understood he will retire
from the army to accept the governor
generalship of the Philippines.
The mission has Travelled $4,000
miles through the archipelago by
steamer, motor horseback and afoot.
1t visited forty-five of the forty
seven provinces, conducted public
hearings in more than hundred mu-
inequalities, listened to more than a
thousand speeches and held private
conferences with many hundreds of
persons
Throughout their tour the investiga-
tors heard expressions of frfendliest
regard for Americans, and gratitude
for what the United States has ac-
cOmplished in the development of the
Filipino peoples.
large majority of Filipino speak
ers at public meetings held by the
mission advocated some form of indie
pendence uIsler an American protec.
torate.
Only a few declared for absolute in
dependence, and few others de-
clared themselves satisfied with the
present government. The mission also
received petitions from many non
Christian tribes and individuals and
groups of Filipino business men in
various parts of the islands, asking
that American sovereignty be con
tinued.
In the islands of Mindanao and Sulu
which are inhabited by Moros, who
are Mohammedans and by Christian
FilipinOs and pagan hill tribes. there
was found wide difference of opin-
ion on the question of Independence
Virtually all the Moros and hill
tribesmen, represented by their datos
or chiefs, opposed independence, ac.
cording to speakers at public meet
ings.
On the other hand, the Filipinos in
these provinces favored independence
Petitions were presented by the Moros
asking that the islands of MindanaO
and Sulu be made an American terri
tory, and some of the more radical
datOs openly stated that they could
not be responsible for the cOnse-
quences if their people were placed un-
der Filipino rule.
