Of course, IS the neNI~W remarks,
the theory is that the Filipinos, who
prcdominantly wanted independence
when the act was passed, may be de-
cidedly afraid to go it alone today.

I've had occasion once or twice

NATURALLY he knows his home island

not to mention the rest Of the world

DR.. Villamin isn't Philippine n
dependence advocate. On the con-
lrary. he's been here largely as /"
spokesman for the Filipino element
which has oppoSd il all along, main
ly upon economic grounds, and also
because he thinks we've given his
archipelago better government
than it's likely to provide for itself.
Japs Don't Seek War
But htc dotor doesn't believe the
japanese are the least bit thirsty

1T stands, he says, ''to reason j
they get into fight with the Unit
