PULLAR & NIVEN IGNORING RUSSIA ON ARMS DELIVERY Commission Comes to United | \TITLE BY CONQUEST | RAPPED BY M'LEAN Connecticut Semator Displeased | With Bill on Philippines (Special to the Herald.) 18.—*I doubt if ever have permanent peace ; as the right to subjugate nations is recognized in said Senator Mc- Lean of Connecticut during a speech lon the Philippine government bill in {the senate. “We is the flood Washington, Aug. we can as long smaller in- | ternational la This | and are to set the example. tide in our affairs we should take it if we are to lead the world. We cannot do it unless we disclaim the right to title by con- | quest.” The senator was commenting upon an opinion expressed by Senator | Clapp of Minnesota to the effect that | the Philippines will never be free and | the people do not want them to be inde- independent because American pendent. “I have too much confidence in the spirit of justice that has dominat- ed the American people to assume that the Philippines will never be in- dependent,” said Senator McLean. But “you will never live to see the day when they are,” insisted Senator Clapp. Besides his colloquy with Senator Clapp, Senator McLean engaged in a discussion with Senator Willlams of Mississippi, who took exception to Meclean's statements that the United States owes it to the Filipinos to help them towards liberty and said that the democratic party stands for independence for the Philippines. “Why don’t you give it to them?” asked Senator McLean. “Speaking from the standpoint of the Filipinos, I would say that the democratic party lied when it declared for Philippine independence. Your party has abso- lute power in the government, yet it does nc® propose to give them in- dependence. Men are judged by their acts, not by their words. We are trying to help you do something for the Philippines, but the best we can get from you is a meaningless declaration in the preamble to thisI bilL” Senator McLean said that nobody knows what the preamble to the Phil- States to Investigate Shortage York, Aug. information New 18.—According to reliable available, rate of autput of military small the arms in the United States has now reached the highest figure attained since the beginning of the placing of orders in this country for the allies. It is noted, however, that the deliveries are being made mostly of British account, and it is because of this situation that an important Russian commission has arrived in New York city to investi- and report on the slowness of It is declared that the total number of military rifles for gate Russian deliveries, infantry and cavalry purposes deliv- cred to Russia from the United SV!\N‘S‘ from all sources since the beginning | of the present war does not 7,000. As against the small guns made available for exceed number of Russia, Winchester Arms company, it is re- rorted, is now turning out about 1,200 rifles a day. These figures are given with saome reserve since there is less definite knowledge available regard- ing the Winchester shop than in the case of most other plants. The 1,200 figure, is reported as con- servative, The Remington shops, at Ilion, N Y., are now turning out, it is reparted, 2,000 rifies a day, and the new plant ut Eddystone, Pa., is credited with a daily output of 2,000 rifles. In the case of Eddystone the output rate will reach, it is predicted, 3,000 guns a day by September 1. * The Eddystone plant, had the advantage establishments in being wdvantage of known the however, it is said, has over many older able to take every madern feature and in consequence it has been possible to build that plant up from the outset with the idea always in mind of in- stalling the economic features. The shops at Ilion, New Haven and Iddystone are all engaged in produc- ing the British Lee-Enfield rifle. The Westinghouse works at Spring- ficld, Mass, are turning out the Ru glan rifle, and the first of the Rus dcliveries were made, it is announced, only a short time ago. The Bridge- port shaps of the Remington com- pany, it is learned, have been disap- pointing in their deliveries up to this time. The za, N. Y in rifie manufacture, newest mechanical and avage Arms company, at Uti- has devoted its attention, it Is said, largely to turning out chine guns, and it is sald that product is giving satisfaction. The powder deliveries for the allies et na time within the last twelve months, it is said, have been other than satisfactory. Even the Russian deliveries, which seem to have suffered the most in other lines, have not been ma- the ippine government bill means, It is susceptible to any interpretation, he said. The title to the bill is absurd. It is part of the alleged constructive legislation of the democratic party, he sald. The people of this country, Me- Lean said, have never voted to free the Philippines, vet the bill purports to declare the people’'s intention to grant their independence. On the contrary the country voted against Bryan on his anti-imperfalism 1is- sue. When the United States succeeded Spain in the Philippines, McLean sald, it undertook serious responsi- bilities which it should carry out. They should not be turned loose to | hecome the prey of some other na- tion, he sald. I The pending bill characterized as practically a treaty. Therefore congress should be very careful ahout adopting the preamble to the bill when nobody knows what it means. Senator Shafroth of Colorado said that the senate must either accept the | preamble or insist upon the Clarke amendment for independence in four vears which the house of representa- tives has voted against, or all legisla- tlon will fail Senator McLean sald that the pre- amble is full of misstatements; that the intention of .the American people when it undertook the Philippine ven- ture is not now known.
