WORLD WEIGHS HISTORIC MANILA
Anxiety Mounts Philippines Acclaim Its Nev President
BY WILLIAM PHILIP SIMMS


WASHINGTON, Nov. ii.
With undisguised
m i S g iv ings, Washington
and the world are weighing
the significance of the his
toric events of Friday, Nov.
Is, at Manila.
In the presence of Vice
President Garner and scores
of OIL er distinguished
Americans who have trav-
eled halfway around the
world to witness the in
auguration, Manuel Quezon
will become the first presi-
dent of the new Philippines
Commonwealth.
To ali intents, the Philip
pine Islands then will be
free. Cannon will thunder
the traditional salute for
the new chief of state.
Governor General Murphy will
cease to be Governor General. His
title will be High Commissioner.
He will rate 10 guns-tWo less
than Quezon. Ten years hence,
the archipelago will become the
Philippine Republic and Muir
phys successor an ambassador in
a foreign land.
But, while America thus re-
deems her solemn pledge, anxiety
mounts, not only in Washington,
but in London, The Hague, the
Far East and Australasia over the
future Of the islands.
THROUGHOUT the Orient.
Il Europe and America, observ-
erS are convinced that Japan may
Supplant the United States in the
PhlllppineS-not all at once, but
when an opportunity presents it
self. While the rest of the world
is preoccupied with problems
nearer home, Nippon is sys-
tematically expanding in the East,
territorially, politically and 9TH

Once the American flag is
hauled down, says Winston
Churchill, former First Lord of
the British Admiralty-and pos
Slble new head of the British
navy after the Nov. IA elections
the whole Pacific equilibrium
will be destroyed.
Churchill frankly fears the
Japanese. He is afraid because IN
the hands of a strong power the
Philippines would be pistol
pointed at the heart of British
and Dutch East Indies, Singapore.
Hongkong, India, Australia and
New Zealand.
British North Borneo is ONLY a
step. From there to Java and
other Dutch possessions is Just
another hop. Only narrow straits
separate these islands from Sing

stronghold Westward is India
and southwark is Australia.

miles from the Philippines across

"EHE United States should

ability Of her Navy to protect the
Philippines" said Churchill. And
naval experts in this country and
abroad agree the American fleet
would not have chance.
The Philippines are 1864 miles
from New York and the industrial

Naugatuck, July Is - Warden
John J. Sheridan today expressed
himself as being "fed up" on the
motor patrol question, following a
published story yesterday in which
criticism Of keeping the patrol
auto locked up was expressed. The
story claimed that 1t took police
more than 20 minutes to go from
headquarters to the scene of the
hoidup on Rubber avenue Tues
day because of a new arrangement
adopted at the request of the
warden.
Under this arrangement Chief
Adamson was home eating lunch
at the time, Patrolman Reardon
was doing. traffic duty at the cor
ner of Main and Maple streets.
Patrolman Richard Kelly was on
duty in Union City and Captain
Sicily was at the desk.
Warden Sheridan said that the
only complaints he had received
lately concerning the motor patrol
seemed to emanate from CORE
spondents of Waterbury morn

interested" he said, II never hear
anything about it from anyone else.
If these correspondents want the
motor patrol back so much. I may
give 1t to them as toy to play

the motor patrol was one of the
campaign issues prior to the recent
election, vet he was reelected by a
substantial margin.

Hopeful of Dam
Warden John J. Sheridan expects
a report on the New Dam water in
few days now from state experts.
Samples of the water had been
sent for inspection after reports
of pollution were heard. Health
Officer Walter Baker Is hopeful
no. pollution will be reported, the
warden said.
1t was pointed out that in the
opinion of the health officer
things are better there now than
they have been in past years be-
cause of the Millville reservoir.
However, in the past when the
dam was being used by thousands
each summer, there was no COM
plant of pollution. The Russell
Company, which has denied being
the cause of pollution, has been
in it's present site for many year
but no complaints concerning poll
luton were made before this year.
Despite reports some had barred
their children from swimming
there, there is still large number
of youngsters and many adults
cooling off by taking a swim there
during the days and evenings. And
from the cries of joy emanating
from there constantly, there are
many not disturbed by the pollu-
ton report.
