BY the Assoclated Press. President Roosevzlt had a sug- gestion today that he convene an economic conierence to correct “im- perfections or inequalities” of the 1934 Philippine independence act. The suggestion came from the Foreign Policy Association, which de- scribed Gen. Douglas MacArthur's Philippine militarization program as evidence of “what amounts to a covert conspiracy to keep the United States in the islands.” Detailing problems faced by the Filipinos on the road to independence, a report by the organization suggested the plan to create a standing army of 20,500, backed by 500,000 reservists, was “intended to strengthen military power in the Western Pacific in the event of war with Japan.” Organizes Defense Program. ‘With President Roosevelt's approval, the former chief of staff started this year to organize a defense program for the new Commonwealth regime, which was designed by Congress to bridge the gap to complete independ- ence in 1946, David H. Popper of the association’s research staff advanced the ‘reason- able hypothesis” that with the im- minent expiration of the non-forti- fication provisions of the ‘Washington naval treaty the American Navy may develop a first-class base in the Philip- pines. “If war comes,” he added, “the islands might then be held for a time by Philippine-American forces, immobilizing sufficient Japanese strength to facilitate naval opera- tions against Japan in the north by way of the Aleutians.” The conscription system devised by MacArthur, said the report, would be “a potent weapon in the hands of President (Manuél L.) Quezon should he consider it necessary to quell un- Test by dictatorial methods.” “Legal Dictatorship.” Quezon’s first year at the helm was described as a “legal dictator- ship.” “Unless & statesmanlike policy is pursued prior to independence, the United States may be forced by the breakdown of the commonwealth gov- ernment to intervene under the terms of the independence act,” the associa- tion said, and added: “If independence is to be won and maintained it will be necessary to combat what amounts to a covert eonspiracy to keep the United States in the islands. The pressure exerted by Philippine and American commer- cial groups with a stake in insular economic life coalesces with certain “‘moral’ factors involving racial pres- tige, American influences in the Far East and the United States’ obliga- tions to rescue the Filipino from the clutches of other nations.” “Completing this nexus of imperial- 4st thought is the apparent attempt, under American military authorities, to make the islands s strategic asset to the United Sta Sonnysayings Me an’ baby is mad to each other ‘cause our pennies didn't come out eben!

PLYMOUTH, Mass., December 21.— A tiny ship, its storm-ripped sails streaming in the wind, ploughed into Plymouth Harbor just 316 years ago today and a brave little band knelt in thanksgiving, then stepped ashore. That tiny ship was the Mayflower; that little band, the Pilgrims, 102 rong, seeking the right to worship d in their own wey—a right denied them in England. Their descendants did them honor today with traditional rites. The Society of Mayflower Descendants planned to place & wreath on Plymouth Rock, on which historians say the Pile grims stepped as they left the May- flower. Iron bars and a massive concrete canopy now guard the big boulder from chiseling souvenir hunters. Huge pots steamed in the kitchens of scores of Plymouth homes as busy housewi thawed out “Indian sau- quetache,” first cooked, then frosen overnight in accordance with a recipe from early Indian friends. Into the dish goes white beans, hulled corn, corned beef, turnipe, po- tatoes, salt pork, chicken and game— & delicacy, declare those who have tasted it, unexcelled anywhere. Over the “sauquetache” and whortle- berry pudding, another Indian deli- cacy, will gather members of the Old Colony Olub, oldest social organisation in the eountry, to praise the deeds of William Bradford, Miles Standish, John Alden and their mates.
