By E. P. CLIPSON.
X Mystery regarding the political po
sition and party affiliations of Herbert
jHoorer has been dispelled by the an
nouncement of hts conditional will
ingness to accept the Republican presi
dential nomination. He has said that
J* will accept if it ts felt that the
jissues necessitate It and It Is demand
ed of him, and farther clarifies bis
attitude in the following words:
j "If the Republican party—with the
Independent element, of which I am
Jnaturally affiliated—adopts a forward
looking, liberal, constructive platform
on the treaty and on our economic la
nes, and If the party proposes meas
ures for sound business admjnlstra
,tion of the country, and Is neither re
actionary nor radical In Its approach
{to onr great domestic questions, and Is
packed by men who undoubtedly as
sore the consummation of these poli
cies and measures, I will give It my
entire support"
• Although Hr. Hoover's declaration
created somewhat of a sensation, It
relieved the tension existing in the
camps of other candidates. Surround
ed by silence and secrecy, his atti
tude had occasioned more or less
quaking In both Republican and Dem
ocratic strongholds. one promi
nent on either side felt like hurl
ing a Javelin at him for fear that It
might rebound and act as a boom
erang. Each party wanted his sup
port and the competition had been so
keen as to take on tbe characteristics
of a race, with each side endeavoring
to get to him and land him first
Mystery entered the situation some
weeks ago when Secretary of the Navy
Daniels, positively refusing to give
a name,' but speaking most eniphnt*
Ically and authoritatively, said he
knew who tbe next president of the
United States would be. The most
active guessers were practically unani
mous In tbe theory that the secretary
had In mind Mr. Hoover, the
food man had made promises or
definitely committed himself to the
Democratic party. The theory as to
the deflnlteness was modified later
when Mr. Hoover, pushed to some ex
tremity for a declaration as to his po
litical affiliations, stated that be had
of late years been aligned with the
Progressive Republicans. In the con
gressional elections of 1918 he ap
peared to favor the Democrats, nnri
rood* some stntements Indorsing the
leading policies of President Wilson.
The action of Mr. Hoover has
brought the political pot from a more
or less simmering state to an actual
boiling point His entry makes him a
strong contender for the Republican
nomination, and his declaration of
principles will have much to do with
preventing both parties from adopting
either extreme reactionary or ex
treme radical viewpoints. He has
stated that no one should be able to
dictate the policies of great parties,
yet every man and woman has a right
to decide what Issues and measures 1
ha will support He thus creates a po
sition which jnakes it possible for him 1
to repudiate both parties after their
national conventions. Some observers
see in this a hint that If the candidates 1
and platforms of the two'partfrs. do 1
not aatiafy the liberal tiipugbt of £he
nation, Mr. Hoover will be willing to !
support a third and Independent tick- '
f et Keinwhlle several booms hsve 1
'already been affected by his entry
Into the race. His supporters are en- '
gaged to an active campaign. In the
Minnesota primary, where It was nec
aeaary to write or paste bis name am ■
OM ballot, he showed unexpected
strength, and he leome itroog la eer«r
*1 eute prima rlee which are to coma.
The money question, a* usual, en
ters Into the political situation. Sen
ator Borah charges the manager! of
Oeneral Wood and Oorernor Lowden
with using unwarranted trams. Deni
als coma from both candidates, with
an expression of willingness to hare
their expendltnrea probed. Inasmuch
aa the legitimate expense* of such
onp«l tv require large fund« f ui»
difficult to see how eny cendlilnte est
make much of a showing without
them. Former Secretary McAdoo t*>
fleets this condition when he states
that he has no fund, therefore Is not a
cendldnte.
In Germany, the. coalition cabinet
headed by Herr Mueller promises to
j remain In power until the elections,
I early In June. Concessions to the la
j bor element had much to do with
j stifling the radical crisis In the Ruhr
| oasln. Spasmodic hostilities In that
! and adjacent areas had not been com
1 pletely suppressed, but the outbreaks
had taken on a guerrilla aspect, with
the red forces disintegrating under
lack of supplies, poor discipline and
Inefficient leadership. Considerable
of a bluff to affect enforcement of the
terms of the treaty of Versailles seems
evident In the Ruhr and contiguous
situations. If the Ebert government
had been permitted to send troops
Into the neutral zone, It would have
suspended one of the Important pro
visions of the treaty. The weakening
of this one provision could have been
made the basis for assaults upon oth
er portions of the covenant, with a
gradual and possibly complete defeat
of the unfulfilled terms.
Settlement of the German crisis Is
not absolute. Factional disturbances
are occurring, and are likely to con
tinue, but that an ultimate condition
resembling order will be brought about
Is not unlikely. The effect which the
troubles have had on foreign credits,
so necessary to Germany, and the con
sequent withholding of food supplies,
raw materials, etc., has had a profound
Influence on the nation as a whole.
One of the most disastrous conse
quences following the Kapp-Luettwltz
revolution and later troubles has been
the effect upon the morale of Ger
man workmen. They are reported as
loitering on their Jobs, discontented
and strongly Imbued with the feeling
of 111 treatment Production Is In nn
unhealthy state; precisely what the
red leaders desire for the further
ance of their designs.
Emir Felsel, who lately proclaimed
himself king of Syria, looms ns an ad
junct In a class with D'Annunzto, Mus
tapha Kemal and other trouble mak
ers. Self-determination for Syria Is
not only hts fetish, but' he Is for the
complete Independence of the coun
try; wishes both French and lirltlsh
troops sent home at once, and all
zones of Influence by other nations
abolished. His activities and the
working out of his designs are being
watched by the Jews of the world, as
a complete fulfillment of his program
would render Impossible the establish
ment of the proposed Zlon nation.
Mnstapha Kemal, nntlonnllst lender In
Turkey, continues Ills campaign to stir
up feeling against Christians In Asia
Minor. In a recent proclamation he
deposes the sultan as chief of the Mos
lem world, and raises a call to arms
throughout Islam. Fortunately his In
fluence is not general as yet, but there
Is no denying the fact that he Is nn
Important factor, with n strong fol
lowing In Turkish politics and a grow
ing ability to create antagonism to (he
allies and all Christians.

far the difficulty asserts itself In the
financial relationships of different
parts of the country, with the bank

seems to be for mid-western and west

W|S v iSP/ "ability," "capad
and "suffl
-* 1 ' dent education"
* —What do thoy
Maximo M. Kalaw. mMn , n bUck
and whltel
Senator Bhogun may think no people
Is capable of self-government that doea
not establish the Judicial recall, or that
has no Billy Sunday. John Smith of
Somervllle may think no people la
capable of self-government that does
not vote his democratic ticket, or go to
church on Sundays.
"Capacity for self-government" is as
broad and elastic as tbe world, and If
that should be the criterion for the
granting of Philippine Independence,
America might as well say to the Fili
pinos, "I will give yen Independence
when It pleases me to do so."
Fortunately, the American promise
to the Philippine* le not based on such
obscure and abstract conditions. It la
baaed on a definite saleable thing.
When America, through her Congress,
officially told the Filipino people that
tbey would be granted their Independ
ent as soon as they could establish a
stable government, no abstract oi / ob
scure condition was meant. Stable
government, according to American
usage, means • certain, definite thing.
The Ualted States promised the Cu
bans the same thing, that "when they
have established a stable government,
then American troops would be with
drawn." As soon as the Cuban people
elected a government stilted to them
selves, capable of maintaining order
and fulfilling all international obliga
tions, there was a stable government
In Cuba, and American troope were
withdrawn.
When Congress puw) the Jones
law, It simply borrowed the phrass
"■table government" from the Cffban
history and applied It to the Philip-
Pine#. Tha history of Philippine leg-
Ulatlon ihowi that In black and whlta.
With full knowledge of what It meant,
tha FUlplniypeople accepted the Jones
law and Immediately began aettlng np
the atable government required by Con
grem ei a pre-requlsite to Independ
ence. The atable government la now
a fact. It la Indeed more than that; It
la an undisputed fact
The official representative of the
United States la the Philippine Islands,
the Governor General, reported to the
American Congress and the administra
tion that "the Filipino peopfeliave es
tablished the stable government de
manded by Congress as a pre- requisite
for the granting of Independence—
namely, a government' electe#iy the
suffrage of the people, which la sup
ported by the people, which la capable
of maintaining order and of fulfilling
Ita International obligations."
The Philippine question Is therefore
Do longer a question of politics, argu
ment or supposition. To tha Philip
pine mind, at least. It Is now a ques
tion of whether the Dhlted States Is
ready to discharge Its own obligations
fully snd completely. America went
before the world In the recent war as
the avowed champion jf "self-determi
nation" and Filipinos cannot see how
America can consistently refuse to act
Tha Filipino people, however, have
no grudge or grievance against the
American people. Theirs Is a message
of friendship and gratitude. They seek
Independence as the natural and log
ical outcome of America's "policy In
the Islands snd of America's aolemn
promise to them. They come willing
to give privileges and concessions not
Incompatible with their national wel
fare.
The Filipino people sre willing to
accept Independence under any of the
following conditions: Under a League
of Nations, guaranteeing Its terrltorisl
Integrity; under the protectorateshlp
of the United States for the first few
years; under a treaty of neutrality be
tween the United Mtstes, England, Ja
pan, France and other powers, or even
without any condition whatever—«bio
lute and complete Independence. They
have no fear of Japari. Philippine In
dependence, In our opinion, Is not Inlm.
lesi to Japanese Interesta. The Japa
nese are now free to come to the Phil
ippines, but st the present time there
are less thsn 10,000 Japanese In the
Islands. There are six times ss many
Japanese in California as there are In
tha entire Philippine Archipelago.
The Filipinos are willing fo take
tbefr chance as a nation. Smaller na
tlona beset by graver problems and
danger; have taken a more hszartkras
chases at freedom, and bavs me
