M i i 5 ': ! )! i i j WASHINGTON, Jan. 1 It will take mora than on feneration and probably mora than two to prepare- tha Filipinos for eelf-government. In tha opinion of William 11. TaTt. former proaldant. who today faro Ma views on tha admlnlstra tkn bfll for ultimata Independence of tha Philippine fcafora tha adnata committee worklna on that measure. "I'm at laat In a position wMra I can aar Just what I think." aaid Mr. Taft. "Tou called mo here. I'm golne" to tell you Just what I know about thlnga" "Wa cannot," tha former president aald, "give tha Philippines self-govern meat, be cause It cannot ba fivea. Wa canaot present tha Filipino people with a char acter. It muit be acquired. On war to acquire It la through hard knock, aa tha Ancle-Bason race eeaulrrd It. Ofcjeet Lema la Uofraoieo(. "When wa went to tha Philippines wa tried to give K to them hy malntalnlat a constitutional form of government aa an object lesson and by educating tha people In tha language of freo Institu tions. We tried to kave the novenmcnt participated in. but not eairtrolled by the native. "Now, what time do I think will be necessary to train tha Filipinos for self government 7 Tha time that shall give to those people an opportunity to learn English, so that they shall ba aa English speaking people. That wtH take more than one generation! and probably mere than two. If you count thirty years as a generation. You can't educate ail af the people you haven't got tha money. . How II Changed Ilia Vlevr. "When President McKlnley sent me to the Philippine I told him that I thought wa ought not to b In tha Island. II i aid to ma that we had tha bear by tha j tall and that we had to stay. But thai Idea then waa that we would get aut just as soon as we could. Our first purpose In being In there Is to get out. "Democratic promises of Philippine In dependence," Mr. Taft aald further, '"have been the great obstacle in our own work over there. Even now It la causing trouble. Ttal man Rlcarte, who i la charged with fomenting tha present i disturbance, la a professional revolution ist, coming down from my time In the Islands. He lives In I long Kong on funds he collects for revolutionary purpose In the laiunds. Thla present outbreak Is - the result, undoubtedly of hi agitation In trying to Justify hi collection. He probably argued that democrat In the United Btatea promised Independence at fixed time; that the time has now been postponed, and that the promise has been broken."

"I now have 600 families on my list In Monterey who are being furnished corn, bean and rice twice a week," aay Mr. Hanna. "Thar are 1,000 more fam ilies who want ticket ta the relief sta tion. There are probably mora than 1,000 families In Monterey who need help now . and the prospect ara that several thou sand will be very hungry befora January 1 past. "Tha Mexican autoorittrs are interested in doing what they can. but after four years of war, after which the field have been neglected, tha crop are very short and, tha local supply almost exhausted, i "I need for Monterey and nearby towns two cars of corn and a carload of rice and beans each week. Wa wish j ' every town In the cotton states would buy a bale of cotton blanket and aeud . O.etn to Mexico, for these people have ' very little clothing. It la awfully cold, j roe rood situation Is evidently wore her than In Europe, where big harvest Were gathered laat fall." Carranza Takes San Luis Potosi WASHINGTON.
