1 t § o "The National Republic has\on .:& eral occasions called attention. to thi fact that the discussion of Philippine independence . is .. useless, because neither congress nor the executive has any more right to alienate American sovereignty in the Philippines. than in Alaska or the states carved out of the Louisiana Purchase. Acquired by Purchase The Philippine Islands were acâ€" quired by the United States not only by conquest from Spain, but by purâ€" chase; we paid twenty million dollars for the Philippines as against three millions for the Louisiang territory and seven million dollars for Alaska; in all cases the United States acquired complete sovereignty which under our constitution is inalienable.. The Suâ€" preme court has ‘decided that the Philippines are "territory of the United States,". not in the sense of "Yee simple title in our government, but in the sense that our sovereignâ€" ty exists there. That sovereignty can be alienated only by the affirmative action of the people or the states, to whom, under the Ninth and Tenth amendments to the federal constituâ€" tion, all rights not specifically conâ€" ferred on the federal government by the constitution are reserved. ; Authority Quoted / "Authoritative support for this position is !gund in two recently pubâ€" lished opinions. ~Judge Daniel R. Williams, who was secretary of the Taft commission in the islands has published a brief in the Virginia Law Review holding that no power is vestâ€" ed in congress to alienate sovereignty over any territory of the United States,. George H. Fairchild, of Manâ€" ila, until recently publisher of the Manila Times, supports the same poâ€" sition with quotations from the deâ€" bates on the constitution in the Virâ€" ginia convention of 1788 which ratiâ€" fied the constitution, and where this very question was discu:sed by some of the men most influential in the That the Philippines as a part of the sovereign territory of the United States cannot be separated from the republic is the contention of the Naâ€" tional Republic which in its current issue quotes editorially a number. of authorative opinions ‘to <sustain the position.

It is needed to pay bills, get: conveniences and necessities, to pay doctors and streetâ€"car fares and buy Christmas wifts. . It ‘gives une security, confiâ€" dence and social faith. But many people slur over the fact that money is not an end in itself. Money is a means to another end. _If one regards money as the end of existence, his life is miserly. â€"Sometimes a person, in need of something beside money, is so discouraged, unhappy, and conâ€" fused, that he thinks he does need money. â€" Then he begins to want what he does not need. He thinks and worâ€" ries about money. It becomes ‘an ob session. ts i The need of'uuny people is friendâ€" liness. People often come to the United Charities for money, when they do not need it. ‘In a recent study of the experiences of 184 families coming to the United Charities of Chicago, it was found that in 16 famâ€" ilies, there was no need of material or money help. They needed advice, sympathy, information, friendliness, some understanding with whom ‘to talk. Among these 184 families, seven of them were: selfâ€"supporting during the entire «time of contact with the Charities. During the year October 1st, 1925, to October ist, 1926, there were 9,â€" 505 families experiencing difficulties, but not in need of material relief that were served with friendliness, advice and encouragement by ‘the United Charities of Chicago. i If you would enjoy some of the real spirit of service, the next time some worried person appeals #o you, why .not take the time to copy the kind of service of the United Chariâ€" tiscs of Chicago and you, personally, show some friendliness, understandâ€" ing and encouragement; even though the stranger asks for money. | The fellow who won‘t take no for an answer is greatly to be admired in a way, but sometimes he‘s an awful pest to have around,.â€"Fort Wayne Newsâ€"Sentinel. # framing and adoption of the federal charter. f $ "On page 258 of these ‘debates James Madison is quoted: â€"â€" â€"=> & MONEY NOT ALWAYS "It will, moreover, be contrary to the law‘of nations to relinquish terâ€" ritorial â€"rights. â€"To make a treaty to alienate any part of the United States will amount to a declaration of war againgt the inhabitants of the alienated part and a general absoluâ€" tion from allegiance.
