Drainage institute. Maj. Fl. B. Muck

which reclamation schemes here are
organized. financed and governed.
This was in an address given at a

Plan to Recall Island Troops Is
Under Consideration Of War
Department.
APPEAL TO GOOD FAITH
Contention That Four Power Treaty
Guarantees the Security Of the
Islands, America Take a
Signatory Step.

Washington-Military defense of
the Philippines may be completely
abandoned by the United States even
before ratification of the four-power
Pacific treaty.
The step is known to be under con.
sideration in the War department. If
it is carried out, under pressure for
further reduction Of the strength OF
the army, the garrison which has
been maintained In the islands for de-
fensive purposes ever since the first
American troops landed under
Dewey's guns in 1898 will be cut to
no more than a police force to sup-
port the authority Of the insular gov.
eminent.
Appeal to Good Faith.
Should this policy be finally adopt.
ed, it will be based on the contention
that the treaty guarantees the Sc
curity of the islands from attack by
any signatory power and that they
should be left to the protection OF
international good faith. AS an evil
dence Of its own complete good faith
such action by the United States, it
was said, would have striking EN-.
phasis. The possibility of aggression
against the islands by any nonsigna-
tory power is regarded as so remote
as not to deserve consideration. In
any event, 1t was said, the provisions
of the naval limitation treaty setting
up a status quo agreement as to de-
lenses of the Philippines or other
islands covered by its terms prevents
establishment of Notifications ade-
quate to repel an invader bent on oc-
cupation of Manila.
Shipments Suspended.
Already, in anticipation Of ratifica.
ton, both the army and navy have or
dered shipments of mines and anti
aircraft guns scheduled to be added
to the Manila defense stopped en-
route.
The War department also has re-
scinded orders for a bombing squadron
of airplanes which would have added
materially to the strength OF the Phil
lppine garrison. This action Is re-.
garded by army men as of particular
significance, since military thought as
to the possibility OF preventing. with
q comparatively small force, any land.
ing of hostile troops in the islands has
lately been leaning strongly toward
the conclusion that much might be
done In this way with aircraft, but not
with any mobile army or fixed forti
locations conceiyably possible of
maintenance in the Philippines in
peace times.

"A fact which has been recognized by
writer's of all ages, from Terence, who

Its attack is sometimes instanta-

Over most men the disease creeps
