Secretary of War William H Taft in Chautauqua argues for a golden mean between too much self government and too little education for Filipinos. He portrays education as essential for public responsibility and self government, noting the educated minority can guide reform while the majority remains easily influenced by wealth and elites. He cites religion, public opinion, and language unity as factors in preparing the islands for eventual self rule.
