| mission to the Philippines, left today
for Baguio, where they plan to remain
until Monday, going from there to
Manila.
At public meeting in Dagnoland
at which Mr.. Forbes presided a wom-
an speaker criticised the municipal
president for what she termed his
radical Independence views. The
president declared that he preferred
absolute independence without pro-
tectorate.
The woman said: ANY one with
common sense knows that the Fill
pinos would be unable to defend them
selves against an outside foe. We
haven't even one battleShip and we
would be an easy prey for any coun-
try with ambitions of expansion"
At Vigan, in 1locos province, where
the mission stopped three days earlier

nationalist party defended Mr.. Harri-
son.
A banner carried in the parade
which escorted the mission into NiSan
read: "Will the Philippines become

At all public hearings held by the
mission on this trip speakers told the
mission that a protected independence
was wanted. but if this was not pos
sible. they would desire complete and
absolute independence. The mission
held many private conferences. at
which candidates for political offices
are said to have expressed exactly op-
pcsite views from those they gave in
public
A farmer. addre ssing Gen. Wood and
Mr.. Forbes at Santa Maria, declared
that a large part of the population
desired that present conditions con-
tinue. He said he believed that if in
dependence was granted to the Philip

At Santiago speakers asked for in
dependence with an American pro-
tectorate. Two laborers at the San
tiago meeting, however. when asked
their views, replied that they did not
believe the islands would be able to
support government. The principal
speaker at Candon said the people in
that vicinity hoped for independence
some time in the near future with an
American protector2te, but stated if
it was not granted the FilipinoS
would be good losers"

STATE AND GOVERNMENT
RIGHTS CLASH ON ROADS
Threatens to Become the Subject of
Debate in Congress on
Highways Bill.

The issue of the rights of the states
as opposed to those of the federal
government is threatening to become
the subject of debate in Congress on
the subject of highways.
The Issue thus far has reached the
stage of discussion only in the Senate
post offices and post roads committee
at hearings soon to be completed on
the Townsend bill to establish an
interstate highway system and to
create federal highway commission
Witness after witness appearing be-
fore the committee has been ques-
toned on this point by Senator Hefiin
and those supporting his contention,
which the Alabama senator usAlly
at the close OF the interrogation
states as foll6ws:
MY contention is that - states
are required at the outset 20 put up
half Of this fund to build the post
roads of the government: tkIn they
are required to put up ali the funds
for the upkeep of =. roads for all
time to come. and tney are going to
have no power or --Dice-pra ctically
none-in saying where these roads
shall be constructed.'
Republican members of the COM
mittee and some of the witnesses have
disputed this contention. asserting
that the federal commission would
naturally rely on the advice of the
state commissions as to road routes

NOISY MOTORCYCLES
UNNECESSARY NUISANCE

The noisy motorcycle is officially
taboo. There never was any legiti-
mate need for a rider to travel with
his machine, especially within the
limits of any city or town. with his
muller open. thereby causing the
motor to emit a stream of roaring
explosions into the atmosphere. II
has been proven time and again that
there is no appreciabie loss of power
under all normal conditions IL the
exhaust Of the motor Is muffied--in
other words. IL the muller is kept
closed.
The results just announced of a
series of tests made by promi-
nent' morotcycle manufacturer still
further substantiates this contention.
tests OF motor efficiency
of motors with muffled and un-
hindered exhausts were made, under
all conditions of, load and speed

New SaIesrooms at 1922 Con-
necticut Avenue, Beautifully
Arranged.

The District Haynes Corporation.
distributors OF Haynes csrs, have
made their new salesroom at 1922
Connecticut avenue northwest. one OF
the most attractive and beautiful on

has been Identified as an automobile
salesroom for a number of years. has
been completely renovated and newly
decorated.
Large plate glass windows, on the
floor level. extending across practi-
caily the whole front. provide ample
space for full length display of a
car In q way that will impress pass
ersby with the full effect of the long.
unbroken sweep OF Haynes lines. The
beauty of the display is greatly in
creased by the use OF foor and top
lights that throw the car into bril-
liant relief.
