Congressman King is one Of an in
creasing number Of Republicans In the
House who are urging quick action
on Philippine independence. Mr..
King is the author of a bill which pro-
vides that within one year the Philip
pine government, under presidential
proclamation, may assemble a conven-
ton and frame a constitution.
After the constitution is ratified by
the Filipino people the President may
recognize the Philippine islands as "a
separate and s~elf-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 1t.

gresham King ito hold another people

"a little more observance of the

tional affairs would Don dispel that

Of freedom in the world today.

we declared before the whole world
that we were not actuated by any self

ACKNOWLEDGMENT, but solely by humani-
tartan impulses"
Congressman King called attention
to the fact that Filipinos are now
raising funds to erect a monument to
Admiral Dewey, which he said was In
directly a tribute to the American peo-
Pile as well as to Dewey. He recalled
the cable that Dewey had sent to
President Mckinley, which was as
follows:
SIN my opinion these people Gill
pinos) are superior in intelligence and
morec 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 20, 1916, and declared 1t was a
definite pledge of independence: The
preamble stated "ft is as it has always
been the purpose Of the people of
the United States to withdraw their
sovereignty over the Philippine Islands
and to recognize their independence as
soon as a stable government can be
established therein"
Congressman King stated there was
no question but that the Filipinos a
established the specified stable gov
eminent and, therefore, it is the
solemn duty of the United States to
grant the promised independence.

Another tote from Secretary Hughes,
of vast import, was sent to Germany
in reply to requests from Berlin for
a statement of the administrations
attitude in the matter of Preparations.
This document dashed the hopes of
the Germans that the refusal of Amer
lea to ratify the treaty of Versailles
meant an Endorsement of their efforts
to escape punishment. They were in
formed that "this government stands
with the governments of the allies in
holding Germany responsible for the
war and, therefore, morally bound to
make reparation, so far al may be
possible"
The only consolation for the Ger
mans in the note was the expressed
hope that reopened negotiations may
lead to a prompt settlement which
will at the same time satisfy the just
claims of the allies and permit Ger
many hopefully to renew its produc'
tive activities"

FIRM NOTE ON YAP ISLAND
Germans Get Disappointing Communi'

MISUNDERSTANDING War and
Peace Program Outlined
Great Britain Facing
Complete lndustri-
al Disaster.
BY EDWARD w. PIcKARD.

President Harding's international
policy is becoming better defined day
by day, and the world is fast learning
the attitude of his administration in
foreign matters. There were several
important developments during the
past week, taking the form of notes
to other powers.
Foremost of these was the message
which Secretary of State Hughes sent
to Great Britain, France, Italy and
Japan concerning mandates. 1t fol-
lowed UP the course adopted by Secre-
tary Colby just before Mr.. Wilson
went out of Office, but was stronger in
argument and more pointed in sugges-
ton than the note of Mr.. Hughes
predecessor. In effect, Secretary
Hughes note says that the United
States holds that the disposition, with
out it's consent, of any of the terrific
ries coded to the allied and associated
powers by the central powers Is In
valid; and in particular it suggests
that the approval by the council Of
the League of Nations of the award
to Japan of the mandate for zap and
the other North Pacific islands should
be reconsfdered. This In view Of the
fact that, a month before that action
by the council, the United States
called the attention of the powers to
its understanding that zap was to be
internationalized as a cable station
and not given to japan.
Secretary Hughes states fatty that
the right to dispose of the overseas
possessions of Germany, acquired
through the victory of the allied and
associated powers, is shared by the
United States and that there can be
no valid or effective disposition of
those possessions without the assent
of the United States. This of course
applies not only to the North Pacific
islands, but also to Palestine, Mesopo-
tamia and the German colonies in
Africa and Australasia.
1t is believed in London that Great
Britain will give to Japan advice that
will amount to a command to yield
to Americas claims in the matter of
zap and to consent to reopen the case
in the interest of world peace and
Justice. The British government is
Influenced both by desire for the
friendship of America and by pressure
from the dominions, which are strong
ly opposed to Japanese domination of
the Pacific.

IOr.
Prospects for peace in Ireland have
fiZZled again. Hostilities on the island
continue undiminished, and the crown
forces have been subjected to a num-
Der of strong attacks by the "repub-
lican" fighters. The government made
a rather bald attempt to conciliate
the Irish Catholics by the appointment
of Lord Edmund Talbot to succeed
Viscount French as viceroy of Ireland.
He is the leading Roman Catholic of
England. The Sim Feiners did not
fall" for this very well, an official
statement issued by them saying Tai
bot had been appointed because the
government hoped to turn his name
and religion to successful propagandist
use in foreign countries and create
disunion among Irish Catholics. The
statement added:
"The actual effect of this appoint
ment among Irish Catholics will be re-
pulsion at the thought of a Catholic
acting as the agent Of tyranny"
The report of the defeat of the
Greeks by the Turkish Nationalist
at Eski-Shehr vas confirmed, but the
extent of the disaster is not known,
neither side having issued a detailed
statement. The Greeks retreated to
the Brusa front where they awaited
reinforcements. These, however, are
not easy to obtain, for when King
Constantine called two new classes to
the colors less than so per cent of the
reservists enrolled. There is a rumor,
indeed, that the failure of the offensive
in Asia Minor may result in the ex-
pulsion of Constantine and the resto-
ration of VenizelOs to power. The
former premier left Paris suddenly
and secretly and it was said he had
gone to the Riviera preparatory to a
dash across Italy to Greece in case an
uprising against the kings war policy
occurs. He believes he can count on
the support of the English, French
and Italians If he returns to Greece.
The Greek royal family, it seems,
is going to make sure of the Leeds
millions. The former Mrs. Leeds, now
Anastasia, the Dollar Princess" who
married Christopher, the kings broth
er, has the use of her former hus-
bands vast estate during her life, but
at her death it all goes to her son
William or his heirs. Just now she
is seriously i'll, and young William,
summoned to Athens, promptly pro
posed marriage to Princess Xenia,
niece of Constantine, and as promptly
was accepted.
Charles G.. Dawes and his commits
sion nave concluded their inquiry into
the matter of relief for disabled serv-
ice men and their report has been sub
mitted to the President. The three
major recommendations <hich the
commission makes are ar follows:
One centralized govel-Aental au-
thority with complete charge of all
federal agencies for soldier relief.
A decentralization of administration
service to carry federal aid as near as
possible to the home of the soldiers
in all parts of the country.
A request to congress for additional
] appropriations for hospitals and for a
permanent building program.
