 The communication of Genera lm- mall 10 General Hale, setting forth the governors view, said:
 "Il is the opinion Of the governor that nt time when all people Of the civilized nations of inc world are de- nanding reduction in armaments, both on land and on sen. it is mad Nisable for the American government through propaganda and dcmonstra- ton 10 stimulate national military movement. While it is true that the sole purpose Of the demonstration is to acquaint American people with a new national defense plan. yet il would be interpreted by foreign pow CTS as the American layman inter- prcts like demonstrations held in ] those lands.
 considering the participation of | America in the last great war, the ! hopes, the ideals and the failure of | America to achieve it's purpose of uni ersal peace. it would be well worth | while for America to hold demon stration on September l2. 1924, that would lead the way for foreign na- tons 10 universal peace.
 'lt inc opinion Of the governor that riotic demonstration in Wis consln IS unnecessary. Wisconsin. the state that sent 94,000 men to the Civil war, 5,469 to the Spanish. American war and l24S14 men to the World war, needs no patriotic lesson. Wisconsin's military record recalls the major components of the iron brigade and the major components of the Sond division. Ii recalls the fact that in no war during it's history has Wis consin failed to answer the call for national defense or known within it's own boundaries industrial or military disorders. and the fact that on July IS, 1918. when American arms stemmed the tide In the second bat , tie of the Marne, one out of every fifteen soldiers wearing the American in France, came from Wis ] consin. For the reason indicated in the ' preceding paragraph, the governor !, feels that a test mobilization Is inad- ! visabe. The Wisconsin national guard will take part only on the call of the president of the United States, !. ssued under constitutional authority , in national emergency"

to the welfare of our own nationals,
and to the peace and progress Of
mankind.
The present population of the
Philippines is nearly 100000. There
are 1858 islands in the Archipelago
which has Il coast line of 1l.444 miles
or longer than that of the United
States. Luzon is the principal island
with an area of 4O.sl4 square miles,
about the size of Ohio The total area
OF the Philippines is 1895 square
miles, nearly AS large as the United
Kingdom. Manila is 6,22l miles from
San Francisco. The difference in
time between the two cities is 10 hours,
ana IL minutes.
The wealth of the Philippines was
estimated by the Wood-Forbes Con-
mission as $5,50O.0oO.OoO Revenues
for 1924 will total about SIS 5000 COO
or less than the cost of u modern
bastleship.
At the time the United States took
sovereignty over the Islands, conditions
there were appalling. In Manila, the
death rate among infants under one
year OF age was 95 per cent. Clean
drinking water was unknown. There
were no sewers. Small pox, tubercu-

Fiiipinos u chance to show what they
could do as government administrat-
Ors. The result was virtual bankruptcy
for the government and actual bank
ruptcy for the National Banks Many
Filipino officials of that institution, in
Guiding the president, arc now serving
terms in Bilibid prison. They could
not keep from accommodating their
friends and relatives with government
funds when they had free and easy
access to them.
Not more than ten per cent. of the
100000 Filipinos are of type any

MANY CHANGES
IN H. s. RULES
ARE PROPOSED
Changing of Age Limit and
Other Athletic Limitations
To BE Discussed

Grand Forks, Dec 3.-The revision
of practically the entire state high
school athletic league constitution is
to be considered at "a meeting Of the
board which has been called at Fargo
on Friday and Saturday of this week.
according to advices here by board
members while at the same time
announcement has been made that
the state high school championship
basketball tournament dates have
been set for March 20 and u. VAL
ley City had already been selected
as the tournament city.
Attempts were made to change
several important rulings in the con-
stltutlon at meeting OF the league
here last October, but after arguing
until after one o'clock in the morn
ing, the gathering was adjourned
without accomplishing anything ex-
cept the decision to redraft the whole
thing and put it in readable shape.
At that time J. c. Gould of Mandan
vice pre- sident, said that amendments
and new rulings had been added from
year to year since the formation of
the league, but the original constitu-
ton had remained intact.
Would Reduce Age
Changes in the rulings which will
be taken up at the board meeting
this week will affect the eligibility
of athletes in two respects. 1t is
aimed to reduce the age limit from
81 years to 20 and to allow partici-
patton in interscholastic competition
to eight semesters. At the present
time a boy is automatically dsqual-
flied from further activities in high
school when he reaches the age Of
21.s. However, many believe that
this. is too high and then he should
be out Of high school by the time he
is 90.
The other ruling permits an ath-
lcte to take part in interscholastic
competition until he graduates, pro-
viding he is under the age limit. The
new one would limit it to eight Sc
,nesters. This would discourage
from delaying his gradu-
alton for the purpose Of getting in
year of high school athle-
tics.

NATIVES BOILING SUGAR

Title of the United States to the
Philippines rests upon conquest. upon
the cash payment of $2O,00O.OOO, and
upon treaty cession by Spain. BY
decision Ut the Supreme Court. the
Islands "came under the complete and
absolute sovereignty and dominion of
the United States, and SO became ter
rltory of the United States over which
civil government could be established, y
Judge Williams as well as many other
lawyers holds that the Constitution
vests no power in Congress to ALLEVIATE
sovereignty. Congress is consequently
without authority to detach the Philip
pines from the United States.
In the gradually shifting scenes and
combinations which war and circum-
stance have wrought in the Far East
since 1898, the possession and ultimate
control of the Philippines have become
invested with an Importance utterly
urdreamed Of when they passed into
our keeping with their 1O.OOO,OOO
people. Fronting for a thousand
miles and more OF the coast of Asia,
and commanding the gateways leading

Billy Evans Says

Making the jump from New York
TO Princeton to see the Yale game.
| was fortunate to bump into Il half
dozen former college stars, most Of
whom have been doing scout duty
during the season.
Since none of them. had seen u
western game, they kept me busy
answering questions relative to the
merits OF different teams in the
west as we'll as individual stars.
DESTROYS of getting a better line
Oh the eastern situation from these
experts, | put any number Of qucs-
tons to them, the leading one being:
Which is the best team in the
east?
1t struck me as a rather unusual
coincidence that the six authorities
were agreed on the best team.
RUTGERS" was the answer.
While | realized that Rutgers has
great team, | was rather surprised
that these players. former stars,
scouting for the bigger colleges in
the east, should award the eastern
honors to little Rutgers.
1t was also the opinion of the half
dozen expert scouts that the stand
ard of play was below the average in
the east this year, that the east had
no outstanding team like Notre
Dame.
Then a sports editor of a leading
eastern paper, who had just recent
ly finished a tour Of the leading col
leges of the west and had seen four
or five big games, among them being
the Illinois, Chicago battle, said:
II think western football is 33 per
cent more efficient this year than
the eastern standard of play.
"The western teams appear will
ing to take more chances, gamble
with dangerous plays, thereby pro-
viding a thrill that isn't possible
with the old stereotyped stuff.
"Why, in that Chicago-Illinois
game | saw more real thrills crowd
ed into one game than saw all last
season in the east"
1t is possible that lot Of eastern
sports editors are not going to con-
cur with the opinion expressed by
their fellow newspaper man who
leans so strongly to the west.
However, ! would say that what
ever advantage there was between
the two sections from Il football
certainly favored the
west.
At the present writing it seems as
if there would be great many more
games next year be-
tween the east and west.

do not prove positive SUPREMACY,
