God Reiigns

When the news of the assassina-
lion of Abraham Lincoln reached
New York, James A. Garfield was
making speech at mass meeting
in Wall street. At the opening of
his address he sale, "Clouds and
darkness are round about us. God
reigns and the government at Wash
ington still lives"
Garfield was quoting from the
ninety-seventh psalm: 1.-THE Lord
reigns: let the earth rejoice. Clouds
and darkness are round about him !;
righteousness and justice are the
foundation of his throne" In the
the emotional stress of that great
and tragic event. the teachings of his
childhood came back to mind and he
expressed the thought of the ma
tion in words of the ancient book.
When darkness gathers it is good
to know that the source of light has
not failed. Though God may be in
heaven. all may not be right with
the world: but it is great comfort
to know that God is still there. We
can bear with the darkness of the
night il we know that the sun shines
somewhere.
The bad times in your life can be
endured, if only you have faith in
the author of life. Religion gives
us background. The things near al
hand may all be troublesome. The
surface of our lives may be ugly and
painful. But when faith gives us in
sight into the essence of existence
we know that God reigns and that nj
misfortune can finally defeat us.
1.-The Lord reigns; let the multi
tude be glad" 1t is not easy to BIZ
glad when everything seems to con
spire to put us down. A man ou
of job does not feel like singing
songs of rejoicing when his famil,
is in want. Nevertheless, there i.
justification in that faith in divin,
Providence which has kept many ;
soul from despair. "Does he no
take care of the birds of the air?'
asks Jesus. Then have faith that tn,
way will be made clear for you.

ISLANDS SURPRISED.
BY HOUSE VICTORY
FiIipinos Taken Back, but Are
JubiIant Over Passage of
Independence Bill.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
MANILA, Philippine Islands, April 5.
-Filipinos were slightly taken back
today by their first decisive victory in
the 30-year long fight for independence
-passage of the Hare bill by the
United States House of Representatives.
Although surprised, they were Jubi-
liant, and some forecast similar VIC
tory in the United States Senate.
Manuel Que2on. president OF the
Philippine Senate, stated the House
action confirms the statement 1 made
three weeks ago to the effect that there
is no strong opposition in Congress
and therefore legislation granting
Philippine independence will be enact
ed this session"
Stimson's Letter.
He cabled congratulations to Filipino
leaders of the fight in Washington.
Coupled with jubilation over the for
ward stride toward a grant OF mture
independence, was the Soberness with
which Filipinos received Secretary OF
State Stimson's letter pointing to the
international implications involved.
Sheltered for centuries by some pow
erful nation, the islanders failed to
realize their vulnerable position until
it was brought home by the nearness
of the recent Sino-JapaneSe fghtlng.
A member of the Filipino Legislature.
who is one of the chief political figures
of the islands, was jubilant ever the
news of passage of the Hare plll, put
cautious in predicting the possible &C
tion of the Senate and the President.
Apparently he was not prepared TO
believe the three decades of the indie
pendence campaign were destined TO
meet success with as little opposition
as evidenced in the House vote.
Aguinaldo Against Bases.
Gen. Emilio Aguinaldo, commander
of the Philippine insurrectos OF IS
years ago, expressed opposition TO the
clauses of the Hare bill providing fol
retention in the islands Of military and
naval bases. Senator Claro M. Recto
agreed with him, and the same opposl-
ton was expressed by several radical
independence organizations. Gen
Aguinaldo said he did not think Presi-
dent Hoover would veto the legislation
John r. Wilson, secretary OF the
American Chamber of Commerce, saio
he did not believe the independence
legislation would be completed at the
present session Of Congress.
The Manila Daily Bulletin, CHIEF
American paper and an opponent OF
immediate Philippine independence
declared that "the vote was primarily
one for American independence, Ameri-
can freedom from competition with
duty free Philippine products and
Filipino labor. It was a depression
vote cast by an added House on the
eve of q general election when the
whole country is harassed to despera'
ton"

COMMENT IS VARIED
ON HAWAII REPORT
Some Island Officials Regard
1t as Step to Commits
sion Government.
BY the Associated Press.


HONOLULU, April 5.-A report to
the United States Senate charging lax
ity in island law enforcement drew
varied comment here today.
Territorial legislative leaders were
called into conference by Gov. Lawrence
M. Judd shortly after details of the
report, submitted by Seth w. Richard
son, Assistant Attorney General, were
published here.
No announcement, however, was
forthcoming from the Governor.
Other officials regarded the report
variously as stepping stone toward
commission government" for Hawaii
and as at least fair" to the islands.
1T looks" commented Robert W.
Shingle, president of the Territorial
Senate, "aS if Richardson has recon-
mended a commission government in
! roundabout way"
Bulletin, Honolulu daily, published by
former Gov. Wallace r. Harrington.
In two-column editorial the news
paper said Richardson's recommenda-
ions would reduce Hawaii to the status
of q British colonial possession and its
citizens to class "A subject people"
1t termed the report "a Sideswiping
insult to the Governor of Hawaii" and
asserted that it strikes at the very
vitals TO destroy American self-govern-
ment."
Opposition was promised in some
quarters TO seven bills introduced in
the Senate by Chairman Bingham of
the Senate Insular Affairs Committee
to carry out recommendations of the
report,

TWO CAB DRIVERS
AND OFFICE ROBBED
Bandits Get S31 and Two
Autos-0ne Strikes Victim
With Revolver.

The manager of q gasoline station
and two taxicab drivers were robbed of
s31 in three hold-ups early today. The
automobiles, one of which was later
found abandoned.
Orval B. Sloan of the 1900 block of M
street, night manager Of the Gulf Re-
flning Co. filling station at Florida ave-
nue. and M street. was robbed of $1972
as he was preparing to place the receipts
for last nights sales in the safe.
The bandit, Sloan told police, walked
into the station about z o'clock this
morning and asked to be shown to the
rest room. The manager turned from
the cash register a few moments later
and started for the safe with an en-
velope containing the money when the
bandit ordered him Ito stick 'em up"
Sloan tried to snatch the envelope
from the mans hand, but received q
sharp blow across the wrist with the
barrel of the bandits revolver.
You make another break like that
and I'll drill you," the bandit said. With
that he backed through the door and
fed.
The cab drivers, David A. Samelson
of Riverdale, Md, and Joseph Smith Of
the 1900 block of H street, were held
up several hours earlier.
SameIson was hailed at Second and
Massachusetts avenue northeast by a
young white man and instructed to
drive to house in the first block of M
street northeast. The man drew a gun
upon reaching his destination, Samelson
said, and took 81 and his automobile.
Ten minutes later Smith was robbed
nf CT and his taYi OF Todd rlonn ond
Lincoln road northeast. His cab was
found abandoned at First and r streets
northeast sometime later. The driver
told detectives he had been hired by
the bandit at Georgia avenue and
Princeton place.
Police say the hold-ups were the work
of three men. The descriptions of the
three bandits do not compare, police
said.

consideration of the bill. However. the
necessary two-thirdS vote for suspend
ing the rules was easily obtained.
Not Democrat voted against the
bill In the roll call vote which followed.
The vote was the first on the subject
since 1916
Provision Of Bill
/ The measure carries the name Of
Chan man Hare of the InSular Com
mittet. 1t authorizes, first, the sum-
moning Of a Philippine constitutional
convention, defines the nature of the
constitution and specifies certain man.
dstory provisions which would retain
military and naval strategic areas for
the United States. The constitution
must be submitted for approval to the
President OF the United States and the
Filipino people
The bill provides for limitation Of
Filipino immigration to the United
States during the transition period and
provides quotas for the free entry Of
principal Philippine exports to this
country. These would be:
Refined sugar, 1000 tons; unrefned
sugar, 300 600 tons; cocoanut oil, 200 600
tons; cordage, 5000, 900 pounds. No
limits are fixed for the free entry Of
American products in the Philippines.
American sovereignty would be COM
pletely withdrawn from the islands
eight years after the date of inauglra-
ton of a commonwealth government in
the islands. With two years estimated
as necessary for adoption of a consti-
tuition, complete independence would be
possible 10 years after enactment Of the
bill
Specific provisions are made for con-
tinuation Of American control Of Philip
pine finances during the period Of
transition.
Guevara Makes Plea.
The bulk of opposition from the Re-
publican side was based on criticism
of Democratic leaders, whom, they
charged. were preventing a free op-
portunity for debate on the bill.
The greatest ovation came at the
conclusion of an impaSsioned plea for
the bill by Resident Commissioner
Pedro Guevara, himself a former cap
tain in the insurrecto army OF Agui-
naldo, which fought bitter bush war
fare against American troops seeking
to subdue the islands after their an
nexation from Spain.
Eager followers of the debate were
the several hundred Filipinos who
crowded into the House galleries to
applaud speakers championing their
cause These included members Of
the Philippine independence delega-
ton sent here by the Insular Legisla-
ture and led by Sergio Osmena, Acting
President of the Insular Senate, and
Manual RoxaS, Speaker of the Philip
pine House of Representatives.
Resident Commissioner Camilo Osias
closed the debate amid wild applause
which greeted his admonition:
Pass this bill, grant Independence
to our people and 100000 Filipinos
and their children and their children's
children will forever enshrine Amer
ica'S sacred name"

WINCHESTER. KY, April S CE9.-
Clark Circuit Court yesterday remanded
to Harlan Circuit Court the trial Of
murder charges against 10 miners in
dicted in connection with the battle of
Evarts, in which 4 men were killed last
May.
The cases were sent back to Harlan
on the plea of the defense that no

tain witnesses to Winchester and that
lawlessness in the mine area, which
caused the trials to be transferred here,
had subsided.
After trials in Mount Sterling. Mont
gomery Circuit Court remanded II other
cases back to Harlan. TIE action in
Clark Circuit Court will result in more
than so murder cases arising from the
battle being tried in Harlan County
where 1t occurred.
