Of the Wood-Forbes presidential
mission investigation conditions In
the Philippines met here today
I'll miles north of Manila, after
one week of divided inquiry. the
section under Major General Leon
ard Wood trayersed the provinces
Of Nueya Vizcaya, Isabella ana
Cagayan in northeastern Luzon,
while the section under w. Cam
eron Forbes visited the mountain
provinces in the northwest OF the
island.
General Wood arrived here by
steamer, having proceeded from
Aparri in Sagayan province to the
Islands north of Luzon, as far as
Fuga island of the Babuyanes
group.
Speakers through the northern
provinces told the mission that the
people are concerned principally
about roads and improved means
Of communication with the out
side world.
General Wood was greeted here
by large meeting in the Laoag
city hall. Miss Anatolia P. Galano,
treasurer of the federation of wo-
mems clubs of the Philippines,
spoke in favor of granting imme-
date independence to the Philip
pines, as well as woman suffrage
and full enforcement of prohibi-
ton. All Filipinos who spoke here
favored independence in some form
Or other, either with an American
prOtectorate, or if that were i'm
possible, then absolute freedom.

The mission was not interested in
The opinion of political groups and
SAID that there could not be a

The dinner was quietly ar
ranged and no word of it made
public until today.
1t was understood that while no
hard and fast program was decided
upon, that the discussion served to
cement the belief of administra-
tion officials that one of the best
remedial measures available would
be active cooperation between the
government and business men for
revival of export trade.
Financial Aid Discussed.
1t was also indicated that the
administration policy would turn
toward some sort of aid to the fl
nancial situation in Europe as a
part of the effort for general
world stability.
The dinner is expected to have
an echo in numerous conferences
in the near future between the
president and other financial lead
ers.
Others attending the dinner
were James A. Alexander of the
National Bank of Commerce and
Charles A. Sabin of the Guaranty
Trust company, N. Y; Governor
Benjamin Strong, New York fed
eral reserve bank; c. E. Mitchell,
National City bank, New York;
William Kent, of the Bankers
Trust company, New York, and H..
C. McEldowney, of the Union Trust
company, Pittsburgh,
1t is understood that one Of the
presidents chief purposes in call
ing the financiers into conference
was to discuss the contemplated
loan of American private capital
to foreign governments and the eff
feet of such a loan on the resump-
tion of normal industrial condi-
tions at home and on the Ameri-
can export trade. Mr.. Harding is
said to have laid before his guests
an offer to do everything prac-
ticable to cooperate for the relief
Of economic conditions, while the
bankers are said to have replied
with expressions of willingness to
work in close conjunction with the
administration.
Meets Schwab Today.
Most of those present are under
stood to have argued emphatically
that the surest way to promote
export trade would be by helping
actively in the rehabilitation of
European finances. 1t is said to
have been suggested that Ameri-
can products could be sold in
many parts of the old world only
if American capital were invested
abroad to enable the purchasers TO
pay.
Mr.. Harding had an engagement
today with Charles M. Schwab,
steel magnate and although no an
nouncement was made, the as
sumption was that he was consult
ed in the same general subject.

Dissertation of
Memorial Day
Is Protested

Protesting against the practice
of many individuals and organi-
cations in making Memorial day
an occasion for recreation and
amusement rather than devoting
it to observances in honor of the
dead, Albert Loughridge, COM
mander Sedgwick post G. A. R.,
has issued an appeal to the peo-
pie of Salem calling ON them to
discourage all other than sacred
observance of the day.
Commander Loughridge's ap-
peal follows:
Memorial day, at first planned
as day in which Civil war men
should strew flowers ON the
graves of their dead comrades, has
become a day generally observed
by our people by like service in
memory of their dead friends and
kinsmen. This is wholly a worthy
and commendabls custom, and
cannot but have a happy effect
on our country by binding our
people together as the nations
families witness one another's
grief recalled by this devotion to
the dead.
"None of our people are more
grieved than old soldiers to see
the day given up to sports and
other diversions whose effect
must turn attention away from
what was and ought 20 Oe the
memorial character if the day.
The veterans mesa respectfully
but earnestly plead with all those
who have opportunity to influ-
ence public opinion in favor of
making this a sacred festival of
flowers in memory of those who
have passed away. Guard it; Lest
we forget, lest we forget "

Hamar Greenwood, chief secretary
for Ireland, announced today in
the house Of commons.

captured in raids on Sinn Fein
premises in Dublin and what was
the amount and the nature Of
the captures.
Colonel Archer-Shes asked
whether, in view Of the fact that
large sums of money had been
raised in the United States "for
support of the campaign Of assas-
sination and anarchy in Ire
land" strong representations
would be made to the United
States government with reference

The latticed porch, used by Tolstoi and his family in summer is already minus one cor nor. The tiny Villa Thoreau," a small house built some 5o yards from the house and once used to accom- modate visitors in summer, is tumb- ling down.

 The home is now occupied by seV- eral members or relatives of the Tol- stoi family, thankful for this refuge, and engaged in keeping open the home for visitors and preventing thcfts of manuscripts or othed sou venirs, with which the home is crowded. Without money to buy food, the occupants have been obliged to sell their farm animals for lack of grain to feed them.
 It Is estimated by Miss Tolstoi that Sl00,000 will be required to restore the homestead and other buildings.
