of an
Philippine Independence
Under the Hawes-Tdings act the Philippine
islands are to receiye their independence in
1946. During the war President Roosevelt, to
offset efforts of the 4aps to gain favor among
the Filipinos, promised the islands immediate
Independence after .liberation. President Os
mena went ashore with General MacArthur and
the latter as soon as the enemy was cleared off
from part of Leyte turned the civil administra
tion back to Osmena and the Philippine govern
ment. Paul V. McNutt, now manpower commission
er and former commissioner in the islands, rec
ommends that the granting of complete inde
pendence be deferred until the islands are re
habilitated economically. Secretary Ickes has
expressed the view that immediate independ
ence would be harmful to the islanders. The
conclusion of these officials is based on the eco
nomic demoralization in which the islands have
fceen cast by the invasion and by American
fighting to oust the invaders.
Japan stripped the islands of much of their
produce. In sugar for instance, it is reported
that none may be expected for export until
1947 because plantations have been neglected
and some of the refineries damaged, j Manila
has suffered destruction of property and utility
. facilities which will run into hundreds of mil
lions of dollars. The whole economic life of the
Islands, except that for personal subsistence,
has been badly wrecked after three years of
warfare. - .
I The immediate need is the rebuilding of plant
and restoration of agriculture. In some irops
this may come rapidly, as with copra, hemp and
tobacco. Sugar production will be slower.
Building construction will have to be, delayed
except for essential structures until the Pacific
war is at or near an end. The Filipinos them
selves, when they face their problems, will
doubtless see the wisdom of continued connec
tion with the United States, especially if that is
1946, but the Filipino government; would b
wise to ask the U. S. to stayion for a few years.
Car Situation "Tight!'
The effects of the hard Winter which forced
shipping embargoes earlier jthi.yeaj are being
felt in the delay in moving of ;rain out of the
farm belt. Cars were tied up in eaitern yards

Much of the 1944 corn copi: was 'poorly fin

This must be consumed as! animal feed before

the winter there is no danger of loss, because of

Of perhaps greater importance over the long
er term is the question of trade relations be
1 tween the Philippines and the United States.
The islands have been the most prosperous of
the far eastern territories, largely because of the
investment of American capital and the relative
freedom of trade with the United States. Be
fore the war the subject of tariffs proved some
" thing of a nightmare to far-seeing Filipinos who
wondered how they could maintain the stand
ard of living if their goods, whose biggest mar
ket was in the United States, had to hurdle tar
iff barriers. That question looms again. If the
islands are absolutely independent then their
exports would have to compete with exports
from Japan, China, India, etc. for the American
market. The prospect was not a healthy one for
the Filipinos. The trade question is one which
ought to be worked out before the islands are
set adrift, particularly in their present stater
American capital is concerned about its- fu
ture in the islands. Government there has been
stable; but Americans may hesitate to make new
commitments until they see something about
what the economic conditions in the islands will
be, as well as the political situation,
j Clearly it would be a neglect of our duty to
the Filipino people who have so splendidly
proved their loyalty to the United States to cut
them adrift abruptly. Their own government
though is the one to take the lead in proposing a
T continuance of some relationship with America
until economic and political restoration in the
Islands is well advanced. For our part we
should be ready to assist in this restoration,
and for the longer term to establish some pref
erence system for trade. This will help bind the

Editorial Comment
THE WEALTH OF THE INDIES
Even before the Americas were discovered, the
East Indies were fabled as one of the richest terri
tories of the world. Columbus was enroute there
when he found his way blocked by a new continent.
Many of our waterways were discovered by men
'seeking a new road from Europe to the Indies. The
islands of the Caribbean took their name from their
oriental predecessors on the charts of the fifteenth
and sixteenth centuries. Of all the territories the
Japanese have, conquered in mis war the Nether
land Indies probably are the most valuable to them.
The clearing 'of the. enemy from Mindanao, and
probably also from the islands of the Sulu Archi
pelago, will give us a land dagger pointed at the
heart of Japan's rich Southeast Asian empire.
Zamboanga, on Mindanao, provides the Allied
, forces in the Pacific with air bases from which the
. northernmost of the Indies, Borneo, can be brought
- under -air siege. The Indies already have, been
. partly cut off from Japan through the air and sea
blockade made possible by establishment of air and
naval bases on Leyte, Mindoro, Luzon, and Palawan.
. From Zamboanga, and the islands to the south, the
great oil centers of Borneo and enemy installations
. in the Celebes can he attacked, directly and heavily,
. and probably made of little value to the large Japa
nese forces still operating there. When the time
comes for direct attack, Mindanao will be the stag
. . ing base. . - '
-' How well the Japanese have been able to exploit
the resources of the Netherlands Indies since they
seized them in 1842 probably is not fully known.
The resources were great Before the war the Neth
erlands Indies produced 3? er cent of the World's
rubber, 19 per cent of the world's tin, 72 per cent
.of its kapok (used in making mattresses and life
. belts), and, of course, 91 per cent of its quinine.
Other war minerals, such as manganese ore, wol
fram and molybdenum also were there. ' The oil
- - output was -only 3 per cent of the world's supply,
but the IS39 production of almost 8,000,000 tons was
'more than the Japanese could hope to get from any
: other source. .Without the wealth of the Indies, the
.Japanese" could not have continued the war this
. ; long. Recapture of this war-making wealth will
come too late to mean much to the Allies, but deny--1

False Reports on Victory s -
Obviously the war in Germany is moving
rapidly to a climax, and, as he world can plain
ly see, to a conclusion. But we must not be
premature and assume that the fighting will
soon be over. The collapse pf the German lines
on the east; bank of the Rhine shows interior
weakness, .but before this j the Germans have
shown amazing capacity o pull out of bad
holes and reorganize their forces.
We need to be chary about : accepting as true
brief flashes; on the radio, such as came in Tues
day saying that the Germans had "quit." The
correction was prompt. Eisenhower had said
the Germans were " whipped'! i which has quite
a different meaning.

Berlin the news will flow iery promptly. Ra-

The Forgotten Forest
! The farm forest has been the
forgotten forest of America all
through the generation of Paul
Bunyan operations in the . big

the farm forests and "pecker

producing as much lumber as our
own region.
; Offhand, would you guess that

in Oregon in point of Settlement,
has 100)00 acres of second
growth forests on farms? Some

White on forest maps, yet you
see fine farm forests along every
highway. They sum up to a
giant timber crop, a rich resource.
: All of which Is a introduction
to an account of a farm forest
operator of Oregon by my friend,
Harold (the Viking) Olson, pride
of Aberdeen in the Northwest lit
erary tribe. His . story is of
Charles Marshall, farmer owner
pf 30 acres of Douglas fir 60
years old and red cedar swale
in Clackamas county.
Life of a Forest Farmer
Charley Marshall is 52 and was
bprn about three miles from his
prosperous farm in Clackamas
county, Oregon. He's a tree far
mer in every sense of the word
although his magnificent wood
lot is not yet in the American
Tree Farm System. He practices
sound forestry on his woodland.
In winfer time between farm
chores he works for himself out
in the woods.
:,4I feel best when I'm home
working," Marshall avowed.
"Sure, I take vacations. I've been
out to the coast for -a day or two,
but I'm always glad to get home.'
Sundays? That's our day off. We
do the chores, then sit in the
house, reading. Maybe there's '
a fence or a trough to fix, so we
do that, then go in and read some
more. Then there's ; something
else to fix. You cant sit in the
house all day long. That's im
possible." Marshall has about a fine a
stand of 60-year-old fir timber
as can be seen anywhere, on a
slope bordering his pastures and
fields. He has brought it along
nicely, cutting out just enough,
for firewood, to keep the stand
properly thinned , and vigorous.
He gets $9 a cord for fuelwood,
. f .o.b. the Tarm. Now that he's
getting technical help from Walt

ice forester, he knows he could
well thin) the stand some more
by taking out piling.
"But I don't think IH cut any
piling," he said. "IH thin yrtiere
I have toj and turn it into fire
wood. I'm shooting for sawtim
ber, and as you can see, the stuff
is pretty far advanced right now.
I don't like to cut any for piling
because it's hard to fall stuff in
nere witnout injuring trees near
by." ;
Where a Forest Is Fun
Along a creek bed he has
stand of old growth red : cedar
and wants to plant rnprel He
figures cedar will always be
valuable, just like fir and all the
other west coast trees. j
For years Marshall has har
vested each winter a big crop of
firewood for Oregon CirJ and
Portland j while improving his
stand of timber. With it he took
also a soul-satisfying crop of
pleasure in doing just exactly
the work; he likes to do In his
spare time.
"I have seen this timber grow
in my lifetime," he said. "Just
