(Special Correspondence of The Star. and Chitago Daily News Forelgn Bervice.) MANILA, P. L,-April 3.—The appar- ent drift toward early Independence of the Philippines is causing cursory examination of the economic loss in- volved in severing the relations be- tween the United States and the ar- chipelago, in view of the fact that ap- proximately 3 per cent of United States forelgn trade In exports 1is 39"& the islands—not an important fgure at all—and 70 per eent of Phil- ippine export trade is with the United States.
