will use it against the Reich.
Mr.. Roosevelt said he did not

He asserted that the various

He was informed that an ar

Jap;nese mistreatment of the
British and said the author had

DEvELoPAENTs in the Phil
II ippines have started a lot Of
commentators specula ting on
why the United States took the
islands in the first place. and II
they have any economic and
strategic value. why didn't this
country prepare 10 defend them.
There also is raised the ques-
ton Of what the United States
will do in 1916 when Philippine
independence is TO become ef-
fective under a bill passed by
congress several years ago.
American control OF the Philip
pines began when Commodore
Dewey caught the Spanish fleet
in Manila bay and raised the
American flag in the Philippine
capital. Though that was the
beginning. American control did
not become a fact for a year or
so because a highly educated
and imaginative little Filipino,
named Aguinaldo. had sold a
considerable number of the ma
tives on the idea that the
Philippines belonged to the Fill
pinos. Some Of the hardest fight
ing of the Spanish war took
place in the effort to convince
the Filipinos that in benevolent
assimilation by the United States
lay their future security and
prosperity.
That Was 50 years ago. To-
day the flag Of Japan flies over
the Philippine capital. the first
time since the surrender OF De-
troit In 1912 that foreign troops
substituted their flag for the
stars and Stripes over an Ameri-
can fortress. Since then we
have thought that It couldn't
happen again. We have not yet
recovered from the effect Of the
solar plexus wallop which the
fall of Manila gave us.
When we were busy with the
Spanish deal there were isola-
tionists and anti imperialists
who preached that the Philip
pines would always be more of
a liability than an asset. Most
prominent among these was
William Jennings Bryan. There
