The Philippines Again
Buell, Raymond Leslie | March 11, 1925 issue

The article focuses on the book "The United States and the Philippines," by D.R. Williams. When the November elections ended with a triumphal Republican victory the hope of the Filipinos for independence was crushed to the ground. If they read Williams's attack upon their aspirations their despondency is apt to increase. Writing as a twenty years' resident of the Philippines and as a former member of the Philippine commission, Williams speaks with authority and with a point of view avowedly that of the American resident of the islands. To castigate opponents and then to admit the essential validity of their argument is surely not a convincing method of attack.
