Reports are that he looks on and s but little. He will not discuss independence while he is in the islands. He is merely “looking.” Let us hope he looks well and fully into the situ- | ation and presents at the end a comprehensive r port upon which our government can base an ade- quate program for a period of years looking toward the education of the islands to the point where they may efficiently govern themselves and not be the | victims of unscrupulous gangsters and politicians. Then, perhaps, the Philippine question may be properly settled and not dallied with as it has in tho past. If the islands should be free, let’s free them. If not, then let us hold them against all! comers, { The Tide Turns When the time is ripe the man is ready. Through ' all history it has been the same. Yet who, look-| ing upon France during the last few hectic weeks and months, with a new mjnistry:ever every week- | end, with the frane tumbling to low levels, would | ' have thought that France would have turned to Ray- mond Poincare ys a virtual dictator, and, having | ’ made such a selection, would have no cause to re- gret it? | Truly the tide turns as France finds she has a strong man at the head of things, a man who has| been studying for months what could be done and/ now has a chance to try out his wings as a benevo- ! lent déspot. And’ who shall say he is not achieving result: With the various blocs of the French political make- up included in a coalition ministry which, it was claimed, was impossible, he has succeeded in fore-! ing through measures that will immediately work | for stabilization of the French franc. Already ‘confidence is displacing despair in' France, Already the word is not failure, but “suc- j France and Belgium will work together, | Poincare says, to concurrently defend the position of thesfranc and guarantee its complete eventual re-! habilitation.
