REMINDER ISSUED

WASHINGTON, Sept. 29.-(R
- Housewives were given a
reminder today that enough
steel goes into U. S. tin cans
every year to build 900 de-
stroyers as the War Production
Board issued an appeal to
keep it working
Calling for immediate inten-
sification of the tin can sal
wage collections, WPB chair
man Donald M. Nelson said
two out of every three used
tin cans are being thrown
away, and that their salvage
is vital to the adequate produc-
ton of copper, tin and steel
for war goods.
The present salvage rate of
zoo, 1000, 900 cans a month must
be doubled at once if sche-
dulles are to be maintained,
said Nelson, adding that steel
mills are counting heavily on
this scrap source.
Local salvage committees are
in charge of collections.

onstrated at Hawaii and Singapore,
that navy cannot defend a naval
base. It places upon the Filipinos
an implied obligation to defend,
though they lack the means, our
naval bases, and it places us in
the position where we have a naval
base at a distance of 1000 miles
to which we cannot guarantee an
assured defense.
Regardless of what Japanese
propaganda or Filipino Quislings
may make of it, this is not a
statesmanlike solution of the prob
lem. Senator Tydings says that
we must take this action as a
propaganda measure. 1t would be
better propaganda because far
more convincing to the thoughtful
if we took position that the effec-
tive independence of the islands
must be accomplished by the
formation OF a reliable regime of
security in the Pacific.
A Filipino who does not see that
is not fit to govern an independent
state. An American who does not
see that is making the fatal error
of creating distant ENHANCEMENT
without providing the necessary
means to carry out the commit
ment.
For what earthly good is indie
pendence to the Philippines if the
United States in incapable of de-
Tending them? And how can the
United States afford to retain the
commitment, which the naval
bases as well as considerations of
humanity would entail, if no agree
ments have been reached which
make secure the whole region in
which the islands lie We cannot
withdraw entirely, and wash our
hands of the Philippines, without
washing our hands also of China,
the Netherlands, Indies, Australia.
The Philippines are the strategic
center of that whole region. If it
were our intention to leave the
Far East, we need not have had
a war with Japan in 1941.
On the other hand we cannot
take the tremendous risk of staying
there with just enough force to
get into trouble and w h not
enough force to be invulnerable.
If Bataan and Corregidor have not
burned that lesson upon our
minds, we are hard to teach when
it comes to foreign affairs.
The Philippine question is, there
fore, inextricably bound up with
the whole settlement in the Pacific
and eastern Asia. If it is advisable
to pass the Tydings bill now, let
it be done. But let it not be done
without our making it clear that
we are aware of the problem and

of its immense consequences. To
act as if we thought the inde-
pendence of the Philippines were
something which could be enacted
by a Congressional vote would be
reckless and imprudent to the last
degree.
The independence Of the Philip
pines, the kind of treaty which
would have to be negotiated with
the Filipinos on the subject of their
defense, cannot be separated from
the agreements we reach or fail
to reach with all the other great
powers of the Pacific. In the abb
sence Of adequate agreements with
China and Russia on the Asiatic
mainland, with the British and the
Netherlands empires, the United
States cannot, except at exorbi-
tant cost and danger, project it's
power 1000 miles across the Pa
cific Ocean. To attempt to do that
without even having clear knowl-
edge of what will be Filipino for
eign policy, and Filipino military
policy, would be sheer folly.
So now that the President, the
Secretary of State and President
Quezon, have raised the question
in such a way that it must be
acted upon, the era when high
sounding generalities could pass
as substitute for foreign policy
comes abruptly to an end. 1t has
come to its end also in Europe,
and we must move now from de-
batting distractions to the negoti-
alton of agreements with the other
great powers.
