Day by day it develops that the action of Presi-
dent Coolidge in naming Colonel Carmi Thompson
special investigator to tour the Philippine
islands and report the entire situation there in
reference to pleas for independence was wise one
and which will bear excellent fruit.
Mr. Thompson has made considerable progress in
many demonstrations" staged for his benefit have
fallen far short Of convincing him that the islands
ripe for independence.
On the contrary, the longer he travels in the
islands the more he is convinced that the Philip
pines are long way from being yet fit to govern
themselves and he believes, as do many Others that
If the Philippines were granted complete independ-
ence it would be but the matter of short time UNI
til the spoaton and tyranny Of native politicians
would bring the islands to state of chaos and alb
s0lute ruin, economically and socially.
The Manila gang" that would profit most by
such event, are of course trying every known
method of influencing Colonel Thompson but so far
to no avail. Reports are that he looks on and says
but little. He will not discuss independence while
he is in the islands He is merely Cooking"
Let us hope he looks well and fully into the stu
alton and presents at the end comprehensive re-
port upon which our government can base ade-
quate program for period of years looking toward
the education Of the islands to the point where they
may efficiently govern themselves and not be the
victims of INSCRIPTIONS gangsters and politicians
Then, perhaps, the Philippine question may be
properly settled and not dalied with as it has in
the past. II the islands should be free let's free
them II not, then let us hold them against all
Corners.

When the time is ripe the man is ready. Through

Truly the tide turns as France finds she has
