AMERICUs TEMPERATURES
lck on this promise now

back on this promise now would
amount almost to q betrayal.
F'ilipinos assert that General Agul-
naldo was given 20 understand that
from the very first independence has
been held out to them as the ultimate
reward for progress; that in 1916 the
Jones bin made this promise an offici-
al one; that they have now fulfilled
all conditions and independence must
be given them.
President Harding must bitterly
d.sappoint one side or the other
else compromise
A compromise would bitterly dis
appoint both sides.
The Woods-Forbcs report viii al
most surely lend itself to a COM
promise solution, however, because
it must inevitably contain consider
able praise of what is good in the
islands, likewise a measure OF con-
demnation of much that is bad.
Having inherited an "imperialist'
or "expans;onist" policy, it will be
difficult for the president 70 switch
now to something else. II will be
equally difficult to cling to, because
of the possible reaction in the Philip
pines.
Nobody here envies the president
his job.

EFFICIENCY

Chairman Hoover of the Commit

his final report in the greatest hu,
mantarian enterprise in the history OF
the world.
The million people were sustained
over a period of from four to SIX
wears at cost of $1,300,0 100000.
The most interesting figure in the
report is the O.42 of l per cent, the
cost of the administration. In Other
words, out of every dollar spent oven
991-2 cents reached its objective.
Even after making every allow
ance for the thousands who gave

HORSES

A census bureau report shows how
motor vehicles have reduced the
number Of horses in cities. There's
less than half as many as IN 1910.
But in spite of the number of au-
tomobiles and tractors used on farms,
the number of horses on farms is
greater than in 1910. The total is
ZI,1O9,000, valued at nearly $4,000
