Aguinaldo

One reason was that he spoke
only Tagalog. his native dialect,
refusing to learn English. To
those who asked why, Aguinaldo
invariably replied: 1--WE have
been promised our freedom. II
that promise is kept, no one need
speak English"
Aguinaldo never forgo. that
when a United States warship
carried him back to the Philip
pines from exile by the Spanish
in 1898. he rallied $4,000 of his
countrymen to aid American
troops throughout the siege of
Manila and to victory over the
Spaniards.
But when Philippine national
list hopes were dashed by the
treaty of Paris which recognized
American jurisdiction over the
islands, he led his armies in open
revolt. He was captured by
General Frederick Funston aft
er two years of stubborn fight
ing. On April 10. 1901, he took
an oath Of allegiance TO the
United States.
In recent years Aguinaldo has
had little influence in politics,
and 1t was doubtful whether his
appeal would carry much weight
with the Filipinos.
JAPS BACK PUPPET
The japanese, however, were
backing up this apparent use of
a Philippine puppet with q con-
slant psychological campaign
against American influence In
occupied portions of the islands.
The newest development Of this
campaign was set forth in the
war departments night COM
muniQue:
THE latest pamphlet dropped
by Japanese aviators over our
lines declares that American
money Is rapidly become value
less and that the pay the soldiers
are receiving from the United
States will do them no good.
The pamphlet concludes by urg-
ing the Filipino troops to sur
render.
American and Filipino sold
iers fighting on Bataan PENN
sula have received frequent re-
ports from Manila about the
worthless invasion currency
the japanese are attempting to
circulate at the point Of the bay
onet. Hence this psmphlst ap-
pears to them particularly lud-
ferrous" ~

ering rationing to large industri-
al users, hotels, restaurants, and
institutions have not yet been
announced.

A. A "Wsr Ration Book No.
1" is being printed for each per-
son in the country, regardless of
