The key to success today has not
changed from what It was fifty or a
hundred years ago It still is right
thinking which has Its application In
action — that la the result of the cor-

more emphasis than It does today
The business man who thinks logi-
cally makes unerring decisions and
then has the courage of his convic-

attain his goal If he thinks along
the wrong lines If his reasoning pow-

'here: let the-1 Phil-
ippines '’be trie
Thls ' wag the ' key-
'note of a speech' by
! Congressman ! Ed-
ward J Klng of till-
nols ( Republican) j
In which he review-
ed the Amerlcan-oc-j
cupntlon of the Is
:lauds‘froiii 'the'flr&t'
day to the-'pregetir
time He-deCltfred'
that t Ire Uh Fted
States 'was honor
bound to -grant In-:
dependence without further delay
Congressman King Is one of 'On' in-
creasing number of Republicans lit the
House Who are urging quick action'
on ' Philippine ’ independence' ’Mr1
King is the author 'of a bill Which- pro
vldes that within one year the' Philips
pine government under ’ presidential
proclamation may assemble a cobvemi
tlon and frame a 'constitution'- ’
After the constitution la ratified by
the Filipino people the President may
recognise the Philippine Islands as' “a
separate and - self-governing 'nation'’ '
The ' transfer of Unthorlty Is ' to be '
completed within one’ year - Provision '
Is made for safeguarding American -la-1
vestments In the Philippines and for
the providing of 'coaling stations 'and:
submarine bases In the Islands by - the
United States '
Word from the Philippines la "that
the people expect early indepebdence-
and will be sorely disappointed If they
do not get It - t
"No nation has the right" said Con-i
gressman King “to -hold gnother'people
In peonage even 'though it may be
argued by the professoriaf'ttHit the
condition Is simply one -of 'tutelage'
“A little more observance of the
golden rule In ' national ‘’and Interna-
tional affairs would soon dispel that’
desire for exploitation the fiercest foe’
of freedom In the world today
"When we went to the Philippines
we declared before the whole world
that we were not actuated by 'any 'self-'
Ish desire of conquest or territorial
aggrandizement but solely by human!--tarlan
Impulses"
Congressman King caned attention'
to the fact that Filipinos are now
falsing funds to erect a monumeift to
Admiral Dewey which he said was In-'
directly a tribute to the American peo-
ple as well as to Dewey He recalled
the cable jthat Dewey had sent to
President McKlnley which - was as
follows :
“In my
opinion these peopte (Fili-
pinos) are superior in Intelligence and
mdre capable of self government than
the natives of Cuba and I am familiar
with both”
Congressman King then recited 'the
preamble to the Jonea law passed
August 29 1016 and declared It WUs s
definite pledge of Independence The
preamble stated ‘it Is as It ha always1
been the purpose of the people of
the United States to withdraw their
sovereignty over the Philippine Islands
and to recognize their lndepebdencto as
soon as a stable government can 'be
established therein” '
Congressman King stated there 'was
no question but that the Filipinos had
established the specified J stable gov-
ernment and therefore It la the
olemn ' duty of the United States to
grant the promised Independence
The American soldiers In GoblUns -gave
the pour little German children a '
real Christmas which Is the American
spirit says General Allen If they
hadn’t how could they have enjoyed
Christmas themselves? ‘ask ‘Hdutttob'il
