PHILIPPINE INDEPENDENCE

Adjourning as legislature, but converting at once as an independence commission, the members of the Filipino legislature unan- imously demand independence now.
 This is the attitude of the commission q The people desire immediate, absolute and complete independence. (2) Congress prom ised independence "as soon as stable govern ment can be established" (3) Such govern ment has been established and exists. (4) It is time for the United States to make good.
 It is unsafe to assume that the Filipinos do not mean what they say. It is possible that they do rean exactly that.-New Yc-k World

Achievements Of Herriot

Mir. Herriot, welcomed by bands and inn mansa crowds in the country where he is making a great political tour, has been sur named "Le poilu de la paix" (the soldier of peace). A reading of his speeches shows that Herriot has abandoned his former tactics ot remaining silent on the manoeuvers and dec larations of his political opponents. At Dodez he referred to the nationalists and republicans as "those superpatriots, who promised you everything for ten years and did not achieve a single thing.' On another recent occasion he grew indignant at the charges of M. NH, lerand. who has stated that the policy or conciliation toward Germany has left France without securityAfor the future and exclaimed "The man who says that France henceforth will be obliged to accept disarmament without security, that man is either malicious liar or he is so misnformed about the real sltua- ton that he ought to keep silent" M. Her riot has a lucky star. For four years M. Poincare's bloc national tried to find way out of the chaotic condition of postwar con- ditions. During that time Europe came several times on the brink of new conthct and the entente cordial between England ana France ceased to exist. Since the new pre- mier's advent to power, he has healed the breach with England, ''the ally of the first lQdy,' ne mas S0C- Luc OdWCS pan AAA AASSNo-- and while formerly nothing was certain in
 European high finance, Mir. Owen Young sends out assurances that Germany has GOV cred all reparations demands up to the middle
 of 1925. In addition to that the London agreement and the Geneva protocol have ad- vanced the world another step on the road toward permanent peace.
 Two Sides From Gen. Primo de Rivera, who is per
 sonally conducting the campaign against the Riff tribes in north Africa, comes the assur- ance that I've are doing well in Africa, our evacuation is proceeding satisfactorily and our aims will be realized" The next days
 dispatches, however, tell of the Riff demands
 for peace, which include the handing over by
 Spain of 2O,0O00OO pesetos, 20 army planes, l12O cannon, 10000 rifles and generous sup ply of ammunition. So talks no conquered | tribe at the feet of her conquistador. It is
 the language of the fellow who thinks he ought to get something for whipping his enemy. To this news is added the feeling of apprehension and worry evinced by the French
 colonial office over the situation in Morocco
 The victories of the tribesmen have been so complete that they may take it in their head
 any day to extend the reconquest of the whole
 territory that belongs to their fathers and
 tackle the next colonial power - which is
 France Hence the worry.

PRIZES NOBLE AND IGNOBLE

The award of the Nobel prize in literature to great unknown, Wladislaw Reymont, of Poland is another instance of the committees serene disregard of mere considerations of universal popularity in the assessment of merit. The novelist is sufficiently we'll known in his own land, but his name means little in America, though he came here and looked about, shyly and silently, in 1919. The deserts of the recipient of the coveted guerdon are not questioned. Americans are beginning to wonder when an American book will be deemed worthy of the signal distinction. Ger tainly there are many candidates among to- days American realists for what William Lyon Phelps would call the "ignoble" prize New York Evening Post.

ous impulses, except in extreme and un- usual instances, are under individual con- trol, and in ninety-nine out of hundred cases would be less strong than fear of condign punishment certain to be visited upon all who slay their fellowmen, ex- cept in self-defense or some equally un- impeachable motive. Suppression of the news will not discourage crime. Only an aroused public sentiment demanding prompt justice and drowning upon mawkish executive clNmency can do that

Secretary Davis advises the study of Spanish in order that our shipping and commercial interests may be properly represented in Latin America. It would be somewhat awkward, however, for the
 representative of an American firm to explain to the Portuguese speaking popu- lation of Brazil that he had learned Spanish so he could converse with them.

w ing in October" writes MOCK coya
 from Kamakura. Japan. Tt IS a delightful picnic. We were well provided with lunches and drinks (we have not yet Pro hibition), go to the mountain forests, and from the ground which gives that poignant smell of decayed leaves we gather mushrooms, It is a delightful sport which takes people up the mountains or hill climbing.
 Gather fresh fallen leaves and make fire, and roast freshly plucked mushrooms over the fire. It is delicacy.
 "Of the autumn fruits, we count first or all kaki (persimmons). As they ripen on trees they are beautiful, and all over the country the plains and hills are dotted with the bright red or yellow persimmon fruits. Most persimmons are not astringent, and are very sweet and juicy. There are many kinds, some small and hard, others large and soft. The astringent fruits are peeled of their skin, and dried in the sun so that they will be- come sweet. Kaki is one fruit which the most of your people have not yet tasted, but all foreign visitors to Japan enjoy eating kaki"
