Declares Filipinos All
Want Independence
Former Illinois Congressman, Back From Philippines
Gives Interesting Views on Island Affairs.

principally to the fact that In thu
Jones law America gave the Filipinos
her word Of honor that as soon as a
stable government could be establish
ed we would withdraw our sovereignty
from the Philippine Islands.
| 1t might, at first thought, seem
strange that in their sincere appre-
citation e all that we have done for
them the Tilioino people should place
most emphasis on the promise to grant
them their independence. For it cam
not be successfully denied that on the
whole the United States has treated
the Filipino people better than any
nation ever treated dependent alien
people in all the days since the curtain
rose on the dawn Of civilization. Ii
we do not spoil it, 1t is record that
we can be proud of.
But 1t really isn't SO strange that
the Filipino should love us more for
our promise to give them sovereignty
over themselves than for our other
good works, for which. after all, out
side of army and navy expenditures,
the Filipinos have been taxed, and
properly so, for every cent Of the cost.
II we but reverse the situation, and
Filipinos. which cannot be said to be-
an Unfair way Of getting at the other
fellows viewpoint, we shall see that
1t is not strange.
Suppose that Great Britain or any
other power that you can think Of by re-
ferring to your geography or history,
should impose its sovereignty upon us
against our will and then give us an
infinitely better government than we
now enjoy? Could any such foreign
power ever succeed in convincing us
that it had our welfare more at heart
than we have ourselves.
But to return to my story, the Fill
pinos heartily thanked us for the
Jones law, considering TIA sort of a
covenant between the Filipino and
American peoples, and Immediately
applied themselves to the task of set
ting up the prescribed stable govern

the Philippines now. Americas own
representative in the Islands. the gov
ernor general. officially reports IT Is
there and recommends that since the
|. Filipinos have earnestly fulfilled their
part of the agreement, America should
be as prompt In carrying out its part
of the contract.
So that, In q few words, II Is not
the Philippines that now are on trial.
but the United States.
There Is but one answer. America
will carry out its agreement And
since we are going to do 1t. we cannot
afford to bubble and split hairs and
hesitate until cur hardness robs "
Of half the glory Of our achievement.
Let rs act with promptness and will
ingness really worthy Of America
And when tho people Of the United
States Get up the Philippine Republic
as the nrst Christian democracy Of
the Far East, they will be building
monument to themselves that will
stand throughout eternity. On that
day the beacon light Of hope. humanity
and justice will dash around the world.
Such an example BY America viii ac-
cemplish more for the weak and strus-
Cling peoples Of the earth than the
four year world war. with al its cost

St.LOuis Baseball
Club to Open New

BY J. NJ. BATCHMAN,

st. Louis, Mo-, July 1.-THE St.
Louis Stars Amusement Company,
owners of the franchise in the Nation
al Negro Baseball League in this city
and successors to the old st. Louis
Giants Co, in the hearts Of the fans,
has almost completed the new home
for the team at Compton and Market
Streets in the heart of the city, and
within walking distance Of over $4,000
colored people. The park when COM
pleted will easily seat 10000 people
This park will be owned exclusively
by colored men. Identified with the
company are well-known st. Louis
Negro business men and some of them
have a competence in this worlds
goods. Dr. George w. McClelland is
St. Louis wealthiest bachelor physi-
clan, while Sam Shepard and Richard
Kent are prominent in the business
world. The company is probably
as wealthy as any connected with the
league, and it will prove to possess
a veritabIe gold mine in its present
location.

President Lowell Says Jews and

(Associated Negro Press)

ASSOCIATED Negro Press)
Cambridge, Mass, July 14-Pres-
ident A. Lawrence Lowell, OF Har-
ward University, has declared for a
fair and equal opportunity for Negro
and Jew students in American col
leges. In an address to the Alumni
Association during Harvard's Com
mencement week exercises he assert
ed: American Colleges can render
an indispensable service in blending
the different racial groups that pour
into the country. To leave out of
sight the interests of any group what
ever, to fail to consult members of
that group about its interests would
be wrong. To shut eyes to an actual
problem of this kind and ignore its
existence would be unworthy of a
university"

Chicago, H., July 14.-"Pennant,
Pennant, whose got the pennant?" is
the query that is going the rounds
among the baseball fans of the coun.
try today. The Negro National League
race which looked like cinch for the
indianapolis A. B. C.'s two weeks ago
takes on another aspect even from
that of last week.
The American Giants fattened their
percentage by taking a double bill
from the ST Louis Stars on Sunday,
July 2, and on July AS, taking two
games from the Detroit Stars. The
Detroiters came back on the sixth and
annexed the third game of the series.
Previously to coming here Detroit had
taken two out OF three from Kansas
City and as this letter is sent out the
fans there are scrambling for seats at
the American Giants park for Sunday
when Buliett Rogan, late of the
Twenty-ffth U. S. Infantry, will op-
pose Rube Fosters men.
The coming series between the Mon.
archs and the American Giants is the
most crucial series of the season, es-
pecially at this time OF the year. With
Cleveland, Pittsburgh and st. Louis
completely out Of the running this
season, with the Cubans driving for a
NJ 40 In, arc ;xy;c a
with Indianapolis, Detroit, Kansas
City and the American Giants OF Chi
cago in a hot race for first place, in
terest is not tagging in the doings of
the league teams.
The Cubans came to life again in
Indianapolis, winning Monday and TAX.
ing twin bill on July Fourth. They
head for Detroit. opening there to-
morrow in a five-game series while
Kansas City is battling Fosters men.
The A. B. C.'s should get away at st.
Louis, but who can tell what they will
do as St. Louis is fighting with her
back to the wall, on her own grounds
and they took three out of four from
the American Giants there.
Indianapolis has hit some bad luck.
Both Ben Taylor's catchers are out OF
the game for the present with split
fingers. Duncan, the little backstop
of the Monarchs. is also laid up with
an injury received last Saturday in the
game with Detroit at Kansas City.

Hamilton, Ohio, July 14.-Jack
Johnson and Tut" Jackson did
not enter the squared circle"
here July Fourth, according to
schedule. Both fighters were in
Hamilton, where great crowds
from all sections had gathered,
but final arrangements with the
boxing commission could not be
completed, and those who had
hoped to see lively scrap were
greatly disappointed. 1t is
thought that a bout between
Johnson and Jackson may be ar
ranged later.
