Philippine Bureau Creates Information Campaign for Independence
Washington reports the Philippine Bureau in Washington operates openly to educate Americans about Philippine independence, paying writers with literary qualifications. Governor Wood denies hiring Senate or House members, noting visits by many officials to the Philippines, Alaska, Porto Rico, and Hawaii as standard fact gathering. The piece explains the campaign’s purpose and public reception, calling it “all cry and no wolf” in Washington. It also notes irrigation project crops’ value and rising land and water asset valuations through the Reclamation Service era.
