dictatorship and excludes all Moros

the United States. 8e
The Filipino leaders are beginning
to understand that the Bacon bill is
no mere gesture, but that it expresses
the policy of the American govern
ment. Speaking a few days ago to
the Philippine senates of which he is
president Manuel Quezon said, accord
ing to an associated press dispatch:
The Washington administration
could not have made clearer its re-
versal Of policy in. the Philippines
than by its failure to counterfeit the
presentation recently of reaetionary

care to see independence for the
Philippines we cannot fold our arms
and wait for the good will Of the ad-
ministration. We must fight for our
quests within the domain of peace,

IETALL STREET certainly wants the
w Philippines--not as colony
which is buoyed up by hopes of indie
pendence promised in the Jones bill
but as a colony or colonies which
American imperialism has no inten-
ton of relinquishing.
The Hartman National Bank has
been publishing advertisements in the
New York Press favoring the Bacon
proposal to divide the islands and also
to annex both portions of the archi-
pelago. The advertisement published
June 10 said in part:
Representative Robert L. Bacon is
doing fine work for the Philippines
in congress. All good citizens should
read the bill Mr.. Bacon has just in
troduced in the house. 1t denotes
careful study of conditions in the
Philippines. The Moros are
having the day in court. They want
to be permanently under the Amer
lean flag, free from rule by the Fill
Pine government.
THE Hartman National Bank does
L not appeal to us as an impartial
spokesman for the Moros or any other
section of the population of the Phil
ippines and that its eagerness to in
clude the Moros as part Of the 100 per
cent American citizenry is dictated by
it's desire for weakening the struggle

than by its regard for the truth is
shown by the fact that on March "a
Philippine Commissioner Pedro Cue
vara placed in the congressional rec
ord six documents signed by more
than 40 Moro leaders repudiating
statements that the Moros were
against Philippine independence.
T ACK Of space prevents our giving

they are of a Similar character and
one will serve as an. illustration of
their general tone:
We, the undersigned, affix here
with our thumb-marks with our own
initiative, willingly and voluntarily.
We do not like that our land be seq
regated from Luzon and the Visayan
Islands. We want Independence.
Nevertheless we must govern our
land like our brothers in Luzon and
in the Visayan Islands. We do not
want territorial form of govern

Islands. We want independence.

Ieaders).
THE demand that they be perma-

does not seem to be made by any con

selves. They may desire some sort of
an Independent or autonomous status
within a Philippine republic, and this
they are entitled to, but that they sud

divorce Free and Easy.

in every other land, when states
| men introduce bill making divorce
little easier, they apologize for it.
In Russia they brag of 1t, considering
the difficult divorce of the old regime
one Of the greatest expressions Of
man. There cannot be compulsion
in a marriage relation" says the stat
ute. The law is obviously written not
to make people live together who do
not want to, but to see that all actual
relations which a person may choose
to assume are properly registered, and
that he is responsible for all results
from his actions. Nothing more.
There are two kinds of DIVORCE
those in which both parties wish it,
and those in which only one party
wants it.
Collusion,-so f1agrantly illegal in
New York,-is the best and simplest
kind of divorce in Russia. If both par
ties agree, it is no other persons bust
ness. They draw up written state
ment of their agreement, covering the
disposal of children and property, reg
lister it in the same place as the book
of marriages, and the matter is ended.
Only if the parties disagree does the
matter come to court, like any other
disagreement. In that case the court
decides about property and children
But even then, the court has no power
to refuse divorce to either person who
persistently demands it, since "marri
age cannot be a matter of compul-
SION"

for them expires this year. Should
funds not be provided by that time it
would be necessary for congress to ex-
tend the law authorizing their con-
struction.
Representative Britten of Illinois,
ranking republican on the committee,
asserted that he had not been present
at the White House conference but
thought that the administration would
make a mistake if it sanctioned an au-
thorization for ten new cruisers and
failed to provide funds for three al

'"If it doesn't appropriate for those

additional ones would appear to the
world as big bluff"

countries were violating the spirit"

ADVERTISING OF
DOUGLAS MAKES
A Wide APPEAL

That the demand for the stickers
issued by the Borderland Climate club
on which the caption, Where SHE
walked" was printed is becoming epi-
demic is indicated by the steady stream
of demands from other cities and towns
for a supply of the stickers. A Los
Angeles newspaper, it has been learned,
is printing a feature story about the
sticlkers and their eonection with the
boosting campaign going on here.
The latest order on file for stickers
is from Tucson hotel man, who wants
them because persons stopping at his
hotel request them to stick on their
automobile 4windshields and suitcases.
An order for 500 copies of the cli-
mate clubs booster booklet describing
Douglas and its climate and oppor-
tunities has been received from high
officials of the Southern Pacific rail-
ways with a request that the conhign-
ment be sent to F. S. McGinnis,
a Southern Pacific official in San
Francisco, who will distribute the
booklets, where they viii do the most
good" This order was originally sent
to w. W. Windham, freight and pas
senger agent for the road here, who
sent it on to the Borderland Climate
club.

LETTER PROVES THAT
DOUGLAS ADVERTISING
is GETTING RESULTS

That the campaign of the Borderland
Climate club in advertising Douglas as
a winter resort is getting over" is in.
dicated in a letter received Saturday
by j. w Tardy, president Of the club.
from C. z. Biel of the Denver Optical
company, who states that he and Mrs
Biel are coming to Douglas because
the advertising of this city appealed
most to them. Biers letter to Tardy
follows;
Mr. j. W. Tardy,
Borderland Climate Club,
Douglas, Arizona.
Dear Mr.. Tardy:
Thank you very much for the booklet
and letter For years my wife and l
have been making winter trips to Cali
fornia and Florida the next via rail.
Just for a change, we thought we
would make the trip by auto this win
ter and take in Tel Paso and the larger
cities in Arizona, and linger in each
until the novelty wore Off We plan
to leave here about January Is.
l have not felt called on to answer
the letters and booklets of other cities
that / have written to in order to
learn their interesting points, but
yours carried with it such outstanding
arguments that I could not refrain
from making this acknowledgment OF
the merits of your advertising.
My entire business in Denver for
over 21a years has been confined to
selling by mail, and when / see splen-
did piece of advertising that carries
conviction home to the reader l. always
feel like taking off my hat to the
writer.
My wife and 1 carefully read over
your booklet last night and she re-
marked: Douglas is one place that
we surely must spend a few days in"
That is the best argument for the
writer of your booklet. 1t carried con-
viction. 1t got the desired results and
as result, Douglas will get some of
our money for hotel bills, garage hire,
gas and oil, etc, if nothing more. That
no doubt is what the business men OF
Douglas want, and their money spent
for advertising is not being thrown
away.
All need to know now is which is
the best hotel, or the best hotels, if
YOU do not care to show any partiality.
the best hotel, or the best hotels, If you
are too busy, because we will be there
anyway.
Yours very truly,

E. J. Dennison, who took a leading
part in presenting the states case
against Mrs. Mcpherson and her
mother, Mrs. Minnie Kennedy, at the
five weeks preliminary hearing, charg-
ed that he was double crossed by Or
miston's private captors," who have
had him in tow since he was located
at Harrisburg, Pa, more than a week
ago.
Dennison, after obtaining an indict-
1flent against the radio man from the
grand jury in an effort to facilitate his
extradition, was endeavoring.> at the
time Ormiston arrived in California to
bring about his arrest in Chicago on a
fugitive warrant
4 Ormiston told officials that he would
like to spend Christmas with his par
ents' in San Francisco, and probably
will drive his now famous coupe au-
tomobile there. The automobile was
seized recently in an Oakland garage,
where it had been abandoned last June,
and was brought to Los Angeles by
representatives of the district attor-
ney's office.
Harold Davis, chief deputy district
attorney in charge of the absence of
District Attorney Asa Keyes, told the
radio man that he can have the auto
mobile back as soon as he makes legal
arrangements
Photographs of the automobile have
been made and the contents of it's rear
compartment, including a portable
typewriter, part of radio set, and an
overcoat, as well as a pair of goggles,
also found in the car, will be retained
by the authorities.
Ormiston promised to produce the au-
tomobile whenever demanded by the
