MORE AUTONOMY
 FOR PHILIPPINES This Is Recommendation Made
 by Carmi Thompson AGAINST INDEPENDENCE YET Report to President Advises Post poning Absolute Freedom But Suggests Greater Self-Goyernment In Internal Affairs.
AGAINST INDEPENDENCE YET

Washington, Dec. 22 Pl-Post- ponement of absolute independence for the Philippines, but the grant of further autonomy in internal affairs as the situation may warrant was recommended to President Coolidge in the report of Carmi Thompson made public today.
 Independent Dept.
 Establishment of an independent government department to adminis- ter the islands. and other overseas territory was urged in the report, which said also that Mindanao and Sulu should not be separated from the remainder of the islands as has been suggested in congress. Strengthening of American control in the Moro country was recom- mended.
 Colonel Thompson, who spent sev- eral months recently in the Philip pines as President Coolidge's person. al investigator, made these addition al recomniendations.
 Other Recommendations.
 That such steps be taken as may be required to re-establish co-opera- tion between the executive and legislative branches of the Philip pine government.
 That the general be pro- vided with the necessary civil ad- visers to relieve him of the present necessity of selecting such advisers from the United States army.
 That the federal reserve system should be extended to the Philip pine Island.
 That one or more federal land banks should be established in the Philippines to provide loans at req sonable interest rates for the farm CTS who now pay from 12 to 30 per cent interest.
 That the United States depart ment of agriculture establish a suf- ficient number Of experiment sta- .tions in the Philippine Islands to properly develop the agricultural re- sources of the island.
 That the fundamental law govern ing the Philippines, known as the Jones act, be not ammended or changed at this time.
 That the Philippine legislature should amend the Philippine land lazy (with proper safeguards) so as to bring about such conditions as will attract capital and business ex- perience for the development of the production of rubber. coffee, and other tropical products some of which are now controlled by mon- opolies.
 That no amendment be made at this time to the Philippine land law by the American congress.
 That the Philippine government withdraw from private business at the earliest possible date.
 In a message transmitting the re- port to congress, President Coolidge said Colonel Thompson's recommen- dations closely follow the recom- mendations included in his annual message to congress.
 He repeated that Governor-Gener- al Wood has administered his office with tact and ability and to the ad- vantage of the Filipino people
 Some of the recommendations in the report do not agree entirely with his views, he added, but he believ- ed the report to be "an excellent one."

 To Provide Companion
 For Man Who Is Lonely

Col. Alfred l..

TAKE FISHERIES OUT OF POLITICS

It will be happy day for Alaska when the fisheries question is longer political football, and from it's present thraldOm and place in position where those who earnestly endeavoring to shape correct will be able to accomplish their work unhampered by the deterrents which have ntruded for number of years.

 It would be as logical for stockgrower to dispose of his entire herd each year instead of retaining his breed would for those engaged in the fisheries business to wantony destroy the of their industry And it is not being Intentionally done.
 Until a survey is made by competent body to deter mine the question of change n the method of taking sal from the waters of Alaska and the compilation of facts calculated to guide and the publication of these facts that all may understand the fisheries ques ton will remain obscure, and will continue to be contro versial subject.
 Mere academic discussions will get nowhere and in the meantime each and everyone will continue to inter- pret the question according to his theoretical ideas with the politician coddlng it eXpedient with which to name the public mind in frtherance of his ends
 Opponents of the large traps maintain that other methods of capture feasible, yet there is compre hensve data to substantiae the fact and make out The canner1eS maintain that the large trap IS the only method available. Hence these conflicting opinions
 While there is Hull in the storm ght good purpose if the Fisheries Bureau and committee from the Alaska Legislature made survey of the waters of Southwestern Alaska and facts upon which the tire matter may be composed without injury to the ming industry the rights of the public.
 When business rivalries, with their attendant enl brogiOs arrive at point where the general Weal.is volved it is time for the injection of impartial inquiry with view to composing the controversy and accord jus tce to both parties while protecting the public interest
