Courage, Filipino Virtue
There are not many of faint
heart in the Philippines. Courage
is one of the proudest virtues of
the Filipinos. There are not many
~ doubt if there are any to-
day...who doubt that we will sue
coed in maintaining our indepen-
dent existence and in restoring
economic life and health to our
country.
But for the feeling of assurance
which we have, thanks must go to
the United States. Were it not
for the benevolent policy and at
titude of America and Americans,
we would be lost indeed. But, of
course, that is like saying that
were it not for San Francisco
Bay, this city would be sadly
handicapped, whereas the fact is
that if it were not for the Bay,
there would probably be no San
Francisco. Thus if it were not
for the benevolent policy of the
United States, there would pro-
badly be no Philippine Republic
in the first place. The Philippine
nation is a nation and is
democracy because of the United
States. Why do you suppose that
the Filipines were loyal to the
United States throughout three
years of the greatest trial that
any people in any age nave
ever been called upon to face?
The Japanese offered us indepen-
dence, too, although we knew that
the very offer was a travesty
of the word. Our loyalty was not
a result of calculation. 1t was not
a product of logic. 1t was faith
and a conviction that the great
nation which had taught us polite
al democracy, which had thaught
us patriotism and idealism, which
had guided us long and far ON
the road to freedom and natonai
dignity was a nation to whom we
owed a basic allegiance in her
great hour of crisis. 1t was as
automatic to us as faith itself,
that we could not betray America
without betraying the Philippines
too Because the ideals of Philip
nine patriotism are identical with
the ideals of American patriotism.
It was senseless....and the Japan
ese should have realized it.....ta
ask Filipinos to forget their loyal
ty and faith in America and shit
that loyalty and faith to Japan.
The Filipino, guided by AZ years
of happy association with Amer
lea. holds an unshakeable convic-
ton that the democratic way OF
life is a fundamental good in IT.
self. and that any denial of demo
cracy is a denial of virtue,
denial of God. To the Filipino,
combination of Amrica, as such,
is condemnation of democracy;
condemnation of democracy is
blasphemy.

Many Leaders Unable
To Retain Gains in
Light Profit Taking
By VICTOR EUBANK,
Associated Press Financial MriteI


NEW YORK. Jan. 17.-Selective
strength persisted in today's stock
market. although many leaders
struggled unsuccessfully with light
profit cashing.
Steels, together with assorted rails,
utilities and industrials, acted fairly
well from the start. Dealings picked
up some momentum on occasional
recovery flurries, but slowdowns we're
plentiful. Gains of fractions to 2
points or so predominated near the
fourth hour.
Hopes for settlement of the steel
meat-packing and electrical wage
controversies still served to hearten
bullish forces. Fears of growing
imitation again inspired a certain
amount Of bidding. Belief that a
technical correction of the sprint
to 15-year peaks was in the offing
caused the trimming of commit
mentS.
In front most of the day were
United States Steel, Bethlehem, Re-
public Steel, Southern Pacific, Bal
timore g. Ohio, Northern Pacific,
Allegheny Corp, Sunray Oil, Cali
fornia Packing, American Telephone,
Columbia Gas, Electric Power &
Light, Du Pont, General Electric,
Anaconda, Kennecott and Aviation
Corp. Among laggards at intervals
were Chrysler, New York Central,
international Harvester, Douglas
Aircraft, Union Carbide, Great
Northern, Johns Manville and
American Can.
Bonds were steady.

tailed 1868 1922 $40 compared with
