Governor General Harrison addressed Yale alumni at the Black Rock Club about President Wilson’s self determination ideal arising from Francis Huson’s 1900 appointment as Governor General of the Philippines. He argued the islands are trustees for Filipinos, not colonial spoils, and described municipal and provincial reforms since 1916. Wardwell recounted Russia experiences and Red Terror perceptions, while Adee praised American support for troops in France.
