that greets you is richly fragrant !. ;.
the breath of real, honest-to-goodness
tobacco. An aromatic promise of the

Nothing else is like it anywhere.
No matter how satisfied you think you

Predicts Present Social
System Will Be Changed;
Mastery, Atoms, Forecast

PHILADELPHIA. Sept. g.
Prof. James F. Morris. of the
Massachusetts Institute of Tech
nology, in an address last
night, said the remakin" of the
social order is in the mastery
CT the atom, by science.
We know said Prof. Nor
ris, that atoms consist Of un-
thinkable amounts, bound up
in energy. They are like
Jack. in the Box. When we learn
how to touch the button. the
energy springs out We can use
it. There will then be no un-
derground slaves, no coal barons
and the limitless supply of en-
ergy will make over the world.
Every man will have time
to taste the joys Of life.
Such system will destroy
the present social values and
cause an economic upheaval
which will force upon the worll
a change from the present un-
satisfactory system, based upon
gold, to a more rational sys-
TEN based on something more
fundamental perhaps than the
value cf a mans labor or on
necessary conditions.

THOMPSON LEAVES
/ MAN|LAFOR HOME
Plans Visit to China and
Japan First, Reaching
h Seattle November 19.

By the Associated Press.
MANILA, October 5.-Carlnie a.
Thompson, personal representative of
President Coolidge. began his voyage
homeward yesterday. having com
pleted a survey of Philippine condl-
tions.
Timed with his departure the
Philippine Senate and House in joint
session adopted a resolution in the
form Of a memorial to Mr.. Thompson
expressing the desire of the F1llplnos
for immediate, absolute and complete
independence.
Mr.. Thomson will visit China and
Japan and expects to reach Seattle
November 10.
Praise for Gen. Wood.
A statement by Mr.. Thompson ex-
pressed his sincere appreciation 9: the
whole le-hearted assistance received
from Gov. Gen. Wood, the Legislature
officials, department secretaries and
others" during his three months IN
vestigation. The statement continued:
'It is apparent that / should not
discuss matters to be considered in
my report until | have presented 1t to
President Coolidge. Without violating
instructions, however, l can say that
my trip through the Philippines con-
vinced me that the people OF all walks
of life are hungry for education.
Il have noted with great satisfac-
ton the desire among Americans and
Filipinos alike for some definite and
constructive policy that Will insure
economic development of the country.
1t is a pleasure to say again that L be-
lieve that the Philippines are on the
threshold of the most prosperous era
In their history.
when this prosperity comes, 1t Will
result in higher standard of living
for all the people; better schools. bet
ter sanitation and higher wages and
better working conditions.
Il trust the report l shall make to
President Coolidge, based on facts
here, will promote better feeling be-
tween the Filipinos and the people of
the United States
Resolution of Independence.
The independence resolution adopt
ed by the Legislature reads:
1--WE believe that the chief reason
why the full material development of
the country has not been accomplished
10 that we have been denied the
powers necessary to shape our eco
nomic policies.
I'VE are firmly convinced that indie
pendence alone will give us these
powers. Delay in granting independ-
ence prevents us from adopting a
policy which would facilitate the COM
ing of capital from abroad, and con-
strains us to oppose an amendment of
our land laws which would permit
vast organizations of capital securing
unlimited areas of our public lands.
I'VE likewise are opposed to any
economic policy which would allow
selfish exploitation of our natural re-
sources.
THE plan to enlarge the powers Of
the governor general, far from I...~,
ing conditions. would only aggravate
them
