President Waters, speaking to 800'
farmers in the meeting of the state
Institute on the subject, "Keeping

question.

before the extra session, have been

through Congress as a Democratic
measure.
Mr. Quezon, whp has Just return

bill. The bill purposes to establish
a provisional government, more lib

eight years, beginning July 4, 1913,
and that after July 4. 1921, the
United States shall relinquish all

full and complete Independence.

sovereignty over necessary naval

the bay and harbor of Manila,
which 'would be left entirely to the
Filipinos. Other deep water har
