Wood Becomes GoUernor Of Philippines, Urges People Remain True to Christianity
Promises Progressive Government and Tells Natives Elf forts to Build Credit Will Be Made-Insists
 on Better Sanitation

our agricultural development, expand our natural resources and so or ganize and conduct our government that funds adequate for the needs of progress and development may be available. We must live within our incomes.
 Above all we must work together to the common end of welfare and happiness of the people of the Philip pines. We must hold on to sound principles and policies. This Is not time for rash experiment.. We must keep our feet on the ground and re- member that our road lies ahead of us, not behind.
 To Re-EstabIish Credit
 My purpose Is to do the best can to re-establish the credit of the Philippines, to build up their com merce, increase the prosperity of the people and make the government a model of efficiency. This, I cannot do without the cooperation and sup port of Filipinos, Americans and other residents of the island. With your cooperation the work will be easy.
 We must do all we can to build up and instruct public opinion, for without it true representative gov ernment cannot endure. In this the press Is charged with a great. re- sponsibility We must do everything possible to push forward the study of the English language and make English the language of the people of the Philippines.
 Although oriental in birth and blood. the people of the Philippines are closely allied in religion, in ideas of government, in methods of admin istration, and in law to the great Christian nations of the west, and especially with American as to form of government and its civil and re- ligious liberty and liberal institu- tions.
 Must Remain Christians
 "As a people you were born and educated as Christians. There must be no turning backward in the Chris tian faith. Tn this connection it is we'll to remember that the first sign of decadence of a people is dtsre- gard of religion.
 That the people be well grounded in their faith is essential to real sta bility and progress.
 Your enthusiasm and thirst for education and your accomplishments ts in building up .J sound system or public education IS beyond praise. We must keep 1t up. Indeed we must extend and improve it. Education must be free to all. Your women must be given equal opportunity with your men. Nothing l have seen in the Philippines impressed me more than tho character, loyalty, thrift and all around good influence of the women.
 "The government must encourage. not discourage. private enterprise. As a general policy, believe that the government should keep out of busi- ness"

s---7f=-----=- -----------9------ : BRICKS TO KENT

From the Natiou's Business.
 The shock of war has jared us loose from so many of our ancient beliefs and practices that we have become somewhat hardened to sur sprises. But we have not entirely lost the faculty of being startled.
 We have known France as an ex- porter of bronzes, jewelry, hats, gowns, characterization and delicate things of adornment and pleasure. We were somewhat be- wildered, therefore, to learn re- gently that the French are showing great activity In the making of the unlovely and prosaic brick. It seems that bricks fashioned in France are being offered in Kent at 10 shillings thousand less than the quotation on tho local product.
 And Kent, mind you, ts the citadel of the British brick industry.

McLendon's notes president of tbe Quick Change Rim Tire Company, amounting to thou sands of dollars outstanding and unpaid. The notes of McLendon's other corporation, the Birmingham Dental Mfg. Company, are out standing and unpaid.
 McLendon's obligation to widow who in- vested her receipts from life insurance policy in his company has not been met and she is without home.
 McLendon's personal note for S1,5OOOO is in the hands of his friends past due for more than year. unpaid.
 There are more than $2,O0O worth of notes signed by McLendon president in the hands of an attorney for collection, and the attorney states that McLendons signature is N c.
 McLendon does not assess in his own name 10 cents worth of property in Jefferson county. This, on the face of things shows that he is trying to dodge his honest obligations, you cannot obtain judgn ent against him.
 McLendon does not carry his property on the tax books in his own name, and he has been the assessor for quite number of years.
 The present records show two big automo- piles and grand piano assessed for $575.0O. This assertion may be confirmed by an examin- ation of the 1920 tax books
