This is reflected in 1mn enhanced morale which is, after all, most important. I firmly believe that every officer and man of the Philippine Constabula1·y is today a better man at his task because he feels secure in the conviction that his tenure and advancement depend upon merit. From aill parts of the Islands encouraging reports have come to my office. In the regular routine of its highly important police duties, and in the meeting of special emer~ gencies, the Philippine Constabula1·y has arcwitted itself well. Most important of its emergency activities were those in connection with the Sak dal uprising last May. There can be no denial of the fact thiait the Constabulary aded with commendable promptness and courage. Several of its members gave their live'! in the course of their duty, and thus demonstrated again to all the people of these Islalld~ that the Philippine Constabulary can be depended upon to m.aike the supreme sacrif ic~ in their defense when necessity requfres. Thirty-four years have elapsed since the organization of this force, which today is more firmly entrenched in the public confidence than ever before, and is now in the process of considerable expansion. It is my earnest hope that the years to come will justify the promise of the present. and that. this fine and useful organiziation will re-dedicate itself on its 34th annive1·sar:v to the high ideal of unselfish and disinterested service . .. ~ , '· Governor-General.

Says Chief Of Constabulary TO THE OFFICERS AND MEN OF THE PHILIPPINE CONSTABULARY. August 6, 1935. ; On August 8th of this year, the Philippine Constabulary wili enter into its Thirtyfifth year of existence. Thirty-four years-almost three and a half decades of constructive work, of loyal and efficient leadership, mark the rugg;f1 d highway ov~r which this org~nization has traveled to its present position. Let us, in retrospect, look at these years wit1' a feeling of pride in service faithfully rendered-and, inspired by our pa.st record, march onward into the future determined to maintain the high standards that have won for µs so large a measure of public admiration and confidence. When the Constabulary was org·anized in 1901, its main purpose was to rid the provinces of existing bands of outlaws who remained at large after the cessation of hostilities between the United States and the Philippine Islands. This work was pe1·formed efficiently by the Philippine Constabulary, and many officers and enlisted men sacrificed their liveS; in the loyal fulfillment of their duties. Now om· problems are different. The high cost of living, the love for luxury, the ecmwmic depression with its attendant evils ~uch 0 as unemployment, have brought about a sitrnaition in the Islands where there seems to be restiveness among our masses. Commun~st leaders, taking advantage of this, are busy spreading dangerous and subversive pro~agand~. and among our poor and ign01·aint classes their doctrines are not always unweIC:ome. ')·ney are easily led, and emergencies like the recent Sakdal uprising may occur at any moment. The Philippine Constabula1·y has to be on the alert continually to prot~ct the peaceful citizens from the depredations of a few malcontents. ! After the inauguration of the Commonwealth, the Constabulary will be called upoo to shoulder bigger res·ponsibilities, and it is our solemn duty to loyaJly carry out any mission with which we may be entrusted· by our Government. ~adt~ / .

Purposes For Which It Was Organized? By ROBT. G. WOODS Chief Clerk, Philippine Constabulary Thirty-two Years A By St'anc1er The Insular Police Force was organized thirtyfour years ag0 on August 8, 1901, to replace Unit> ed States volvnteer troops who had returned home to be mustered out of the service. Upon request of the Civil Governor William H. Taft, about the middle of 1901, for an Army officer to organize an Insular Police force Captains Henry T. Allen of the 6th U.S. Cavalry and D. J. Baker of the 26th U. S. Infantry were detailed to organize and put the force on foot. Later the War Department detailed 14 other officers, namely, Captains W. S. Scott, H. H. Bandholtz, James G. Harbord, W. C. Rivers, Herman Hall, Mark L. Hersey, J. B. Bennet, John W. Craig, Dennis Nolan, Lieutenants Louis J. Van Schaick, J. C. Rhea, C. E. Kilbour 11e and Majors M . D. Cronin and Peter E. Traub to assist in perfecting the organization of the new force. The discipline imposed, the momentum, train· ing and prestige given to the Insular Police force by these officers will endure beyond the life of any individual in its service today. Its thirty-four years under the strict regime and tutelage of the United States of America have rounded out and made of it the greatest force of its kind in existence. Whatever the future may hold for this force -be it expansion or complete dissolution as a unit, nothing can eradicate the record of its past achievements. The accomplishments of the organization are indelibly written on the pages of Philippine history there to remain a monument to devotion and unswerving loyalty to duty. Whatever the cal\ in the past, the Constabulary has .not been found wanting. Sin'1.'1Y and in .groups, men and off~cers on different occasions have trudged through mud and swamps where no trails existed and threaded the courses of streams in lieu of roads in almost impassable jungles and waded neck deep across rivers infested with crocodiles. Heavy tolls to the ravages of black water fever, dysentery and malaria have been paid. They have stood gu3.rd in districts where cholera raged, put down uprisings of fanatical sects, stormed fortified places and met the wild rushes of bolo men. They have braved the poison arrows of wild men in the forest, the fatal knives of the Pulajans, and the death dealing razor-edged blade weapons of Sulu and Lan~o. Some have performed spectacular deeds of heroism and were rewarded with medals and fitting decorations; but the steadfast devotion, loyalty and bravery of the rank and file have been little acclaimed. True to their calling, they have followed where their leaders led without question and given their lives without hesitation. Within a short time, so short, that we may say tomorrow, t_'1is organization will be delivered by its present Commander-in-Chief, the GovernorGeneral, ink the hands of the President of the Philippine Commonwealth, its new Commander-inChief, and we hope, as the nucleus of the army of the Commonwealth, for it is entirely fitting that the Philippine Constabulary whose record is so replete with glorious deeds and whose ability to meet situations as they arise as has been so constantly proven, shou!d become the nucleus of the larger unit more able to cope with the changing requirements of the times. In parting with this unique force which we think has no counterpart-we wonder if it has ful. filled the purpose for which it was organized or whether it has come up to the standard expected of it by the organizers, at least eight of whom have passed to the Great Beyond? To these at least during the ear)y years of its organization, three enlisted men of the force proved their loyalty. Permit me therefore to detour for a moment to describe the devotion to duty of these three men, six months after their enlistment, who might have been disloyal and lived but instead chose loyalty and death. THE COLACHE AMBUSH Their detachment consisted of five second class privates returning to their station at Bulusan from the barrio of San Vicente in Sorsogon province, an approximate distance of five miles. About one half hour after leaving San Vicente, the detachment was attacked by an outlaw band under the leadership of Antonio Colache, Sorsogon's chief bandit. The place of attack was admirably located Au_s·ust, 1935 KHAKI and RED 11 Major General J. G. HARBORD (Retired) Colonel and, Assistant Chief, Philippine Constabidary 1903-1913 .. for an ambuscade. The road led down a hill and crossed a low swamp ravine which was overgrown with low under-brush through which ran a large stream. Colache selected this spot for his attack' and distributed his men estimated at about 140 to' the right and left of the road on each side of the stream. The detachment was commanded by 2nd Class Private Amb1·osio Fruto, who, with Gabino Dio ana Sergio Dellosa were marching abreast; about 30 paces behind them came Eugenio Faraque and Fernando Filonia. The men in advance had crossed the stream and were completely surrounded whe11 the bandits showed themselves. Fruto immediately ordered his men to open fire, and shoot their way to the sea, which was about 50 paces to the left. The attempt to do this proved futile, as they found bolomen massed on that side. The detachment then turned and succeeded in shooting its way through the bolomen in the direction of San Vicente, and it s·eemed as if they might escape as they had gotten back some 300 yards, when a new and more determined horde of bolomen came up from the direction of San Vicente and attacked them from the rear.

At this point the road ran along a cliff which extended over the sea. (Continued on page twelve) Page 12 KHAKI and Rli:D August, 1935 ... ~. Major General MARK L. HERSEY Has The Insular Police Fulfilled The Purposes For Which It Was Organized? . (Continued frorn page eleven) When rJellosa was killed, the two remaining soldiers jumped from this cliff into the sea; one of them dropped his gun as-he leaped and the other threw his rifle into the sea, and recovered it the following morning. T'ne two soldiers swam out to sea and were picked up by a friendly fisherman. The first news of the engagement to reach their commanding officer was through a note from th~ ~'Teni.ente" of the barrio of San Vicente, stating that the Comtables had been attacked and had fallen back to ~he barrio.

The next morning the detachment found the bodies of the men the condition of which chilled the:r blood. Frnm the 1 toes of tl-iese dead soldiers to the tops of their heads there was not an inch of flesh on their bodies that had w,t been cut or hacked by bolos. Their legs and arms had been disjointed and their stomachs laid open, the frames of their bodies hung together by st rips of flesh. Their remains were picked up in sheets and buried at Bulusan. These Filipino soldiers gave their all for tlfoir country. The~-' made a gallant fight, without even a soldier's herifage of a fighting chance. Suspicior1 was o·n the conduct of Faraque and Filonia, the two survivors, but after the campaign which followed this disaster, officers questiop.ed captured prisoners closely relative r'o the conduct of the two constables ( C.ontiniied on page fourteen) August, 1935 KHAKI and }{1'.,'D . l\Iajnr General C.

Takmg m~o consideration that the two survivors were new 1:1' the ~ervice with overhelming odds azalnst th~m, i:, was not thought that their conduct could be Justly criticized. This enz·;i,g-ement is considered by members of the Constabnlary the most remarkable in its histo1 y because the outlaws repeatedly called to the soldiers that if they would surrender and turn over their arms thP.ir lives would not be taken. The loyalty of these soldiers in the face of such conditi_ons and oc1<ls is c1<'serving of the highest commendation. Subsequent engagements of different detachments under command of Amerjcan officers in Luzon, Samar, Leyte and in Mindanao and Sulu - proved to rh0 satisfaction of the High Comm~nd that Filipinos serving in the Constabulary durmg those turbulent days had no superiors as fighting men and that their loyalty was unquestionable. A THRILI.JNG PERSONAL ENCOUNTER The most thrilling personal encounter experienced bv any Constabulary officer, occured at midnight J"une 24, 1921, in Parang, Sulu, when. Li~u tenant Tiburc1o Ballesteros battled for his life ag~1inst two moro outlaws with huge blade weapons· in which he killed his attackers after he himself had teen seriously wounded. ·Maharajah Mahang and Datu Maula.na with their band of outlaws held up a J olo garage truck, murdered the chauffeur and conductor, took their arms and cnsl: and robbed the passengers of jewel· ry and money. This· band consisting of fifty moro outlaws, attacl~ed Lieutenant Ballesteros and twenty-five Constahles a few hours later at Parang MauWag and in the encounter Mahang was wounded ::rncl two of his leaders killed. Mahang, later organized a band of desperados who were responsible for several robberies and murders in Si!ankan. He cornmu.nicated to Lieutenant J. Ollvas that he, (Mahang), wished to meet him (Olivas) in ::i, house a few hundreJ yards from the detachment station. to co.nvey certain information to him. Olivas with a few men went to the rendezvous dressed in moro costume and unarmed as agreecl. Afto;· partaking of a moro supper, he ar-· ranged with Maharajah Mahang to meet a~ain in a moro mosque nearby for the purpose of having Mahang and followers surrender to him. This agreement was communicated to the Provincial Commander, who discussed the matter with Olivas, and other officers. and finally concluded that the proposed surren(ler was a ruse of the outlaws to kill officers and men and get their firearms. Olivas was consequently withdrawn from the field and Mahang informed by the soldiers that the officer could not be present at the surrender due to .'.111· other assignment. It should be mentioned here however that Maharajah Mahang was protected and co.ntrolled by Panglima Jat1oany, the strongest and probably the shrewdest datu in the Sulu archipelago, and that Friday, the day set for the surrender, is considered by a Moro :he most propitious day to run amuck, and be killed. The different detachments in the vicinity of Silankan were therefore ordered to proceed to the neighborhood of the mosque on the day set for Maha:·a.iah Mahang to meet Lieutenant Olivas, to hi.de ~n the bushes, and to be ready to render assistance to the Provincial Governor and 'Provincial Cornrrander who had posted themselves in the house next to the mosque, with a few men, to receive the unconditional surrender of Maharajah Ma.hang and his band. Neither Ma.hang nor his band appeared. Lieutenant Ballesteros, with a detachment of twenty-five enlisted men was stationed at Silankan, about twenty miles up the coast from Parang and aftor· an enagement with the outlaws, fate decreed that he visit ,Tolo, the capital. At .noon, on Septemher 24, he set ont with a trusted corporal on a vinta enroute to Jolo, and arrived at Parang, the station of a brvther officer, Lieut'enant Alfonso M. Tigno, arou.nd six o'clock in the evening where he expected to spend the night and possibly the next d11y. He dined with his friend and with him ca11ed on two Moro lady teachers. At ten-thirty o'clock the officers returned to Lieutenant Tigno's quarters. Before retil ing, Tigno confided to Ballesteros that four Moros wanted for murder might visit him sometime that night to make arrangement for the capture of Maharajah Mahang and Datu Maulana, conditioned that they be exempt from prosecution. He asked the cooperation of his visitor who assured him of any assistance that might be required. About the Rame hour, in the jungles a few miles from Parang, the out1aws Hassan a11d his followers, Indassan and Isarael, went to the house of Policeman Uhad. and requested him to accompany them to Pa:·ang, as the Constbaul::ixy had cal1ed them for a!1 investigatirm. Uhad k.nevv Hassah because both had at one time workerl with the Constabulary in an inYestigation of petty crimes. It was also know.n to Policemau Uhad and to Lieutenant Tigno that a letter had been written in Moro dialect and sent to Hassan requesting him to go to Parang for an investigation.

The Officers, convinced that the Moros had a sincere desire to help in the capture of the other outlaws, accepted their proposal and promised exemption from criminal responsibility if the murderers were apprehended. Just as the outlaws prepared to leave and were on the porch, Lieutenant 'Tigno expressed his desire to ascertain whether the agreement entered into with them met with the approval of his provincial commander, Captain Miguel Nicdao, who1,1 he informed by telephone at J"olo of the arrangement. .Captain Nicdao, not only refused to consider the proposal of the Moros but ordered Lieutenant Tigno to disarm and confine them in the Constabulary guardhouse. Lieutenants Tigno and Ballesteros were ·sorely disappointed at the turn of events but in view of explicit orders of the p;ovincial commander they reluctantly informed the outlaws that the agreement just entered into had to be annulled. When informed that necessity demanded that they be disarmed, the outlaws assumed a belligerent attitude and accused 'figno of treachery, whereupon a wordy battle ensued between the officer and Hassan, spokesman for the outlaws. While Tigno argued with the Moros, Ballesteros slipped o:it of the Sala. got four armed soldiers from the b~'.rracks, and reentered the quarters through the kitchen unnoticed by the Moros w·no were on the balcony. Two of tl~e soldiers were stationed at the door of the Sala, with bayonets fixed and guns loaded. The other two were posted in the office with Lieut. Ballesteros. Thus, reinforced, Tigno informed the Moros that tt.ey were under arrest. The outlaws resisted the attempt of the soldiers to arrest them and Hassan attempted to strike Tigno with his barong. To protect himself, Tigno fired his pistol point blank Ht Hassan. Whether he hit his target will never be known. The outlaws rushed at the Constabulary men and for a few minutes bedlam reigned. No one "knows what really happened nor how it happened. It appears however that Tigno dashed into the dininp- room of the house with two moros at his heels ~lashing, cutting and jabbing with campilan and kriss. A soldier at the door knocked one of the moros down with the butt of his rifle while the other sol<liers began to fire at the moros on the porch. The light-from a single kerosene lamp in the dining room-having been extinguished in the tumult, all W!lS in stygian darkness with six amok moros on the war path. Lieutenant Tigno was fatally wounded and af. ter running through the kitchen and down the back steps he drnpped dead in the yard. Some of the frenzied moros entered the bedroom which was en. shrouded i.n ci.:trkne::;s and .iabbed. cut. and liter. lly slashed the bedding of the two officers into shreds. In the meantime, the soldiers kept up a fussilade of shots while Ballesteros remained in the of., fice, with thc· harong of Policeman Uhad, his back to the wall awaiting development. He had .not long to wait. Two husky outlaws dashed into the room with kriss aPd barong drawn. Both slashed viciously at the officer who parried and countered. His blow reached home, to the hea1t of one of the Moro~ who ~ank to the floor dead. The other Moro's kriss, alsc· found its mark when it struck home on the officer's lower lip and chin; the lip was split and a tooth was lost-only the hard chin bone saved an offir•er for the Constabulary. Blind with rage and pain, Ballesteros, flew at his antagonif..t like a he-lion in mating time, aiming to grasp the outlaws throat but missed it. The moro then seized him by the throat and from the impact both fell to the floo.r, each trying to cut the other's head off. The moro, an expe1t with cutting weapons, the kriss and the barong, was making such progress that Ballesteros attempted to ' grasp the wrist of the Moro's right hand with which he was wielding his weapon, but instead he grasped the kriss. the shai·pest two edged blade weapon in existencP.. The moro attempted to regain possession of the wer.pon by pulling· it through the officer's hand. The hand was cut severely but Ballesteros held on to the kriss like grim death while he used hi.$ own barong· to advantage.

H€ then proceeded to slash head, neck and body until he had finally cut the moro to ribbons and to death because there was nothing left of him to live. The officer rose from the floor more dead than alive, went ~o the door and ·stopped the shooting which was still in progress. The three moros who escaped death and the wounded, including Uhad, the policeman, h>td disappeared. In addition to the wound on hi~ chin and lip and in the left hand, Lieutenant Ballesteros received several wounds on various parts of his body. A doctor and the Provincial Commander were sent for and arrived in a short time to find Ballesteros in a serious condition and ~carcely a!:>le to speak. Lieutenant Tigno and two moros '"'ere dead and one moro was wounded. All of this Lghting, including the verbal encounter, took place within the short space of about ten minutes. Ballesteros is still an officer in the Philippine Constabulary. The elimination of the outlaws was in the performance of a duty assigned. In thirty-four years of service, the Insular Police has fought more than two thousand engage· ments with oat1aws, bandits, pulajans, colorums. moros and sakdals. In 1905 its greatest c1:1:mpaign year it had 383 engagements or more than one a day. Casualties for that year were three officers killed, and seven wounded, fifty-o.ne enlisted men killed and twenty one wounded. During 34 years of serviC'e the organization lost 111 officers, 59 Americans and 52 Filipinos. During the same . peri-0d it lost 2107 enlisted men in enforcing the laws, maintaining peace and peserving order. Today it is better prepared, ,numerically, mentally, financially, physically and has better and more modern arms than in the days of the Empire when disorder was at ii:'s peak. In handing the organizatio.n over to the President of the Commonwealth it is done with the firm conviction that this body of men will, in the future as in the past, never be found wanting in any emergency. Upon the advent of the Philippine Commonwealth, the second "New deal" in 37 years, its first line of def e?:<ie, the Philippine Constabulary finds itself faced with new duties to perform, civic du· ties, which require much patience and intelligent thought. 'Discontent caused by communists, sa'kdalism, anak Pawisism and other organizations with subversive tendencies are on the rampage. The third Internationale representatives headed by Bolsheviks with instruction from Moscow caused the commn .. nistk co.ngress to convene for the purpose of urg_ ing concerted attacks on the new commonwealth. The defective relationship existing between landlord and tenants based on tradition and the pernicious feudal system of the midd.Je ages encouraged the ignorant taos to follow where Karl Marx disciple~; lead. A crowd of jobless and hungry peuns follow blindly with shouting and hurrahs the red banner of the soviet leaders who promise them jobs and food in plenty, from fish and rice to peaches and cream, and, believing that they have everything to gain and nothing to lose; they fol low-verily, environment, conditions and circumstances lead them to stake their all on the creation offered by K~rl Marx. COMMUNISM, as acceptedly defined, among local member~. is an organized effort to overthrow organized gwernments. The communists in the Philippines stand on the sa~e platform and advocate the same principles and aims as the communists in Mosccw, Berlin, Paris, London, China, J a· pan and the United States. They all take their orders from the Third Internationale with headquart ers at Moscow and obey them implicitly. In the Islands, there are a large number of communists and persons with .communistic inclinations scattered throughout the rice-producing regions of Central Lu~on, in the sugar cane fields . of N egros and Iloilo, and in various factories , business establishments and transportation companies in and around Manila. The leaders conduct surreptitiously intensive campaigns in the rural communities in an effort to prepare for a showdown to accomplish theit aims. They campaign among non-communist organizations with the end in view of converting them t'o communism through gradual injection of Marxian doctrines and principles. In their propaganda they advocate and foster class struggle, proletarian dictatorship, state control of all .natural resources and factories, abolition of inheritance tax and other radical innovations. They at first resort to constitutional methods as practiced in democracies in promoting their objectives, such as peaceful assemblies, demonstration parades, and strikes until new members and new converts have become familiar and accustomed to their tactics that very little encouragement is required to goad and inflame their minds towards social upheawtl. The central theme of the Red movement is the final use of force to bring about chaos and anarchy in order to overthrow the socalled capitalistic system. The Communist organization in the Philippines is not yet a member of the Third Internationale becaui\e the active members have not reached the required meffbership number. The local organization then is a branch of the Far Eastern Bureau of America and China, and is controlled by the socalled Political Bureau composed . of the Executive ,Committees of the National Confederation of Peasants in the Philippines, locally known as the "KALIPUN ANG PAMBANSA NG MGA MAGBUBU( Continued an page fifty-six ) Page 18 KHAK I and RED August, 1935 + + Former , Chiefs ':::.• Brigadier General HENRY T.

SCHOOL MOVED TO BAGUIO In 1908 the Officers' School w.as moved to Baguio and e t.ablished en a newly acquired prcperty called Constabulary Hill, now kn.:iwn as Camp Henry T. Allen, named after the first Chief, the late General Henry T. Allen, organizer nf the Constabulary. By 1908 the original roster had been greatly modified, owing to the .adjustments inevitable t o a new organizati.:in getting established. Some of the original appnintees were not suited to the service. Some had died in b.attle, others by reason of disease, and some had gone to seek wealth or adventure in 10ther walks of life. As time went on the standards of the service were steadily raised, and ips-J facto entrance requirements were higher th.an £ormely. One had to prepare himself f"r the j.ob .and w.atch his step in order to keep it. It was realized that the Constabulary 10f£ered an interesting and very useful career, and the high command set about choosing materi.al for officers that was likely tD reflect er dit on the organizati.on. 'l'his .attitude resulted in the building up of .a remarkable esprit de Lieutenant Colonel ORVILLE M. JOHNSON Superintendent, Constabulary Academy corps, and made the name of Constabulary known and re pected throughout the length and breath of the land. It was still a pretty early day in the history of American Qccupation and most of the important positions in the C:0nstabulary as well a in other departments of the government were held by Americans. Although occasional appointments were still made here it was the prccedure at this time to b,ring young men over from the United States to fill vacancies in the lower grades. The men brought over were gr.aduates d colleges or military academies and consequently had excellent educational groundwork s0 that .a few months .of intensive training in pecial ·ubjects were sufficient to C\.nvert tltem into efficient junior officers. During the time this plan was :fnllowed an average of two classes a year was brought over and sent to the schQol in Baguio, the number in each class depending of c.ourse, on the number .of v.acancies existing in the grade of third lieuten.ant. EARLY CURRICULUM At this time the curriculum of the schnol consi tcd of the Compiled Acts, Pen.al Code, Military Map Reading, the CX:nstabulary Manual, Guard Regulations, Infantry Drill, Fencing, Dancing the Rigiodon, and a smattering of Spanish.

Aurelio Ramos was the District Commander from Januar:; 1, 1926 to January 28, 1927 and Col. G. B. Franci~co from January 29, 1927 to May 4, 1934 when he was appointed Chief of • Sttaff of the Constabulary. Lieut. Col. Juan Quimbo who now commands the District, succeeded Col. Francisco. At first, the district embraced the provinces of Antique, Bohol, Capi.z, .Cebu, Iloilo, Leyte, Masl..>ate, Negros Occidental, Negros Oriental, Romblon and Samar but on August l, 1927, Masbate was transferred t!o the District of Souhern Luzon. The District started with 23 companies with authorized strength of 1046 men. With the transfer of Masbate to the Dis-crict of Southern Luzon the strength was i.'educed to 1004. Forced economy reduced this to 914 o,n July 13, 1931, to 789 on Febuary 9, 1933 and to 760 on January 1, 1934 On account of the last reduction the 20th Company Bogo, Cebu, 24th Company, Sara, Iloilo and 48th Company, Dumaguete, Negros Oriental were disbanded. The district now has an actual strength of 1003 men. A total of 310 municipalities distributed in 479 islands covering an area of 5,649 ,308 hectares and inhabited by about 4 ,000.000 people, must be patroiied and controlled by the Constabulai·y force orf this district_ The Distrn:t is systematically covered by patrols both by officers and enli.sted men as of ten as the depleted E'nlisted strength permitted. In addition to its other police work the Constabulary has cooperated with the local authorities in controlling cholera in Bohol, Cebu; Leyte, Negros Occidental. Negros Oriental and Samar, locust in Bohol; Capiz, Iloilo, L·'yte and Samar. There were times when the locust situatio1 n in Negros, Bohol and Leyte became so bad that general patrolling had to be suspended so that as many me.n as possible could be detailed on locust duty. While high standard of training and discipline are exacted 0f our men, no effort is spared to make their garrison life as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. They are p.rovided with good reading matters, musical instruments and athletic goods. There are two stations now with se.nior bowling alleys. Cebu has a gymnasium where enlisted men are trained how to box by professio.nal boxers. The largest Constabulary Post Exchange in exist'0nce is, m1doubtedly, the one in Cebu.

It is also slaughtering pigs and cattle and selling the pork and beer to officers and enlisted men at about 40 % cheaper than in the local market. The District can boast also of a band that is second only to the Constabulary Band in Manila. Organized on October 9, 1931 , it was able to make its debut on 'Sept. 30, 1931 after an .intensive coul'se of training. It is composed of a conductor and 24 players. Only professional musicians who can proficiently play musical instuments on notes at first sight were e1ilisted.

Mindanao. This District is comprised of the provinces of Cotabato, Davao, Sultt and Zamboang~ . It is necessary here to give the history of the District of Mindanao and Sulu in order to understand the background and problems of the two neVi districts in the southern part of the archipelago. The District of Mindanao and Sulu was orga.nized on July 1, 1903 under the designation of "Fifth District''. Territorially it covered the Moro Province, which contained the Districts (now Provinces) of Cotabato, Davao, J.•'.nao; ~ulu and Zamboanga; and the Provin::.'es of Sungao. and Mirnmis, which together included the territory now embraced in the Provinces of Agusan, Bulcidnon, Misamis Occidental, Misamis Oriental and Surigao. Captain (now Major-General, Retired) J. G. Harbord, U. S. Cavalry, a tem~orary Colonel of the United States Army and Assistant Chief of Cc. !lstabulary, was assigned to command the Dii:>trict with Headquarters at Zamboanga. The Mindanao Constabulary started with an amhorized strength of 34 officers and 1,000 enlisted men whi:!h number was soon reduced to 660 enlisted men. There were, at the same time, some 8 500 federal troops within the district composed of American Infantry, Cavalry and Artillery an:l se\"eral companie of Philippine Scouts. To form the newly authoriz~d Constabulary non-commissioned officers and privates available for prcmotion were transferred from the older districts to make up the non-com miss· oned strcngch and the required number of privates was obtained by locai enlistments from the Moros, Pagans and others of the district . Almost one half of the original force were Moros while fully three-tourths were enlisted within the District. The island of Mindanao and the islands of the Sulu groups differed from the northern islands in that disordc1 s taking placs thereon were not temporary d1sonlers incident to an insurrectin but were, and for centuries had been, the normal or· der of things; lhe lacK of government was not due to a temporar:v breakdown of an establisheci government but due to the fact that no government had ever existed. l<'or uncounted centuries the people, Mohammedan Moros and Pagan hmmen alike, had lived under lhe primeval system of "let him take who Colonel LUTHER R. STEVENS Com11lancling, District of Southern Mindanau and the Sixth Regiment of Infantry has the power and let him keep who can,'' and not only did they put up a strenuous and valiant fight to maintain this order of things but, due to their lack of contact with civilizatio.n. could ac· tually conceive of no other mode of !iving. In Sulu, lhe pcwer of the Sultan of Sulu had built up a despotic state under Mohammedan laws, which were greatly at variance with our ideas of government, but in Lanao and Cotabat'o a.ncl among the Pagan tribes i.n the rest of the district, the people were corn:;tantly engaged in internecine strife with adjoinmg tribes or with other families in their own lribe. Each one protected himself as best he could, succumed to superior force when that was his Jot, and, with great gusto and en· lhusiasm, raided. pillaged and killed or ensla~ed his neighbor whenever he got a chance. Prior to the organization of the Mindanao and Sulu Constabula•·y .no semblace of government. other than family and petty rival rule had ever been establiEt>d among these people. Spain had made and precariouslv mai.ntained a few settlements, penal and military along the coast, had compelled Sulu to make a vague acknowledgement A'ugust, 1935. K ·-l!A :f(J and RED Page_49 of her sovereignty and had inade a few not always successful expeditions into the interior. However the Spanish government had made contact with o.nly a very sruall percentage of the population and h'er influence was negligible 01:Jtside of the range of the guns mounted upon her few forts. The United States Army had made headway, but up to this time it had been a milital'.'y force in a hostile country and had not been able to exert much influence except by words and bullet. The problem confro.nting the government in 1903, was to stop this merry carnival of human sacrifice, murder, slavery, kidnapping, slave raiding, cattle s·tealihg and other sanguinary outdoor sports of similar nature, and to convert the assorted reprobages who engaged therein with so much zest i.nto peaceful, us·eful, and contented citizens of a state capable of self-government. As the Constabulary was the principal punitive arm of the civil government, it became the most useful and most used force in attaining this· end. The Moro province, at that time, was under a. special form of Government in which the Department Commander of the United States Army was the Provincial Governor, and the Dls·trict Uoverners were appointed from Army and Constabulary Officers. The Constabulary in the province was by law, placed under the eommand of the governor. The newly organized Mindanao Constabulary immediately began to put forth every effort to make itself so useful to the governor as to become his chief reliance in government activities, law enforcement and police work. A long. line of Governors of that province followed the policy of using the Constabulary for all work that it was strong enough to do and regarding the Arm~, troops· of their commands as reserves to be used only when the Constabulary lacked sufficient strength tot meet the manifold demands made uport it. In furtheranee of these policies, as soon as ·- ----!.......__ ~ _ ...._.._ __ _ ___ ___ ___ _ _ I ,•., Major HERBERT C.

In Cotabato and Lanao, Army and Constabulary troops worked side by side, with the Constabulary taking over more and more of the work, as its strength was increased until federal troops were withdrl!w.n entirely in 1918.

From 1911 to 1918 the Army and Constabulary were in joint control and the Army finally withdrew i.n 1918. T.he Army troops in the district have been reduced until only two companies of Philippine Scouts and no American troops are Oh du~y therein and they have not been called upon for police duty t or many years. As the Army was withdrawn the Constabulary has been increased until the actual strength of the District of Mindanao and Sulu is 128 officers and 2,411 men, divided into 52 companies occupyi.ng 48 stations and 7 sub-stations. More than forty per~ ent of the P hilippine Constabulary is serving under the District Commander of Mi:-1da11ao ,a11d Sulu. The Army and Constabulary m Mindanao, working in closest harmony, tackled their probl<m without delay and the Mindanao Constabulary got its baptif:;m of fire early.

To his end all government officials, provincial and Constabulary .t!ik.e became missi cnaries bf civilizatio.n and exerted every possible effort to get in touch with · the people by p::aceful means. Many were f',.J reached, often at considerable risk to the office?' involY·ed, and listened, with various degrees of enthusiasm __ or lack thereof, to explanations of the new order. A few. at first then later many accepted the new doctrine, abandoned their more barbarous customs, and settled down. Many of the nomadic tribes· were settle:i into newly formed tcwns and be~ame reasonably industrious farmers. Many of the wild chiefs were taken into the government service and became, i'if their forn, apostles of the new order of things among their less advanced brethren. In this work the Constabulary and civilian officials cooperated so closely and their work was so mutually interdependent that no marked distinction can be made_ between the work of the provinci<·l authorities and the Constabulary. To make this relation even clos··- er, many_ Ccns.tabu.la.ry officers were appointed to August, 1935 KHAKI and RED Page ul positio):s in the provincial governments in addition to theil'1 Constabulary duties. Every province in Mindanao except Surigao, Zambo;'.nga and the Misamis province3 has. at some time, had a Constabulary officer for go·;ernor, and Cotabato still has, while large numbers of officers h E,ve held assignmen~·s as District or Provincial Secretaries, Deputy Governors, Just.ic('~ of the Peace, District Health Officers Muni ~ipal President, Chiefs of Police, Jail Wardens and like positions. Not all of these peoples could be reached by peaceful means. As was to be expected, a b_,rge majority objected strenuously to the abolishment of their age old license and refused to desist therefrom until force was used. Not all who tried the new order rc:ra;ned ·loyal thereto and some, at lcasl', finding the habits of genentions stronger trrin their newlv acquired loyalty to the government, reverfad to their customs of the past.

The cost in lives of officers and men ha'S been he'.:!vy. A by product of this .Constabulary activi~y that should not be · overlooked is the part played by indi viduals after they left the Consbbulary service. The you'ng rr_ en of the Mo10 and Pag·an tribes who lived in contact with the government during their one or more enlis'ments acquired a resoect for and understand:ng of the go\ ernmen~ that made them pe: uliarly sympathetic to the nevi order. In their daily life they had lived, worked, and shared every hr.rdsh!p and danger with men of strange tribes and young Christians from the north and lost much of their suspicion of and hosdlity to strangers.

All these new ideas they carried back t<? their tribes upon discharge and helped to disseminate among their people. Also the young men from the north, through association in the service, acquired a knowledge of and sympathy for the Moro and Pagan which made them very valuable to the government after discharge. Many pos·itions in all grades of government service in Mindanao from Provincial Governor to policemen are filled by former Constabulary men. To direct and control the Mindanao Constabulary has always been a task o_ f the first magnitude. The forces engaged have been dispered over large areas, with transportation and communication facilities almost non-existent. To command under such conditions has required men of vision, energy and tact. The district has been pa0 rticularly fortunate in having had commanders of this type and in the list of men who have commanded it are many who gone on to greater tasks and some who have been promoted to positions of world wide importance and have gained enduring fame.

Brigadier Geneval Basilio Valdes, Chief of C10nstabulary, personally made the presentoation t.:i General Kilbourne. In making the present.ation, General Valdes said: "LADIES AND GENTLEM:EN:"We have here with us toda.y .a distinguished soldi€r, a man whose record in the United States Army and in the l'}ther orga:niz.atkns with which he has been C'onnected, is full ,3f brilliant deeds. One June 11, 1909, Brigiad"icr-General Charles E. Kilbcurne, then Captain, in an order from the W.ar Department, was detailed as Inspector for the Philippine Constabulary and continued in that positi.on until he sailed for San Franciscl'} .-:in April H, 1911. "His work as Inspeckr of the C0nstabulary brought him in contact with various units in the provinces. His duties included, n-0t @ly the inspection .-:if the furce 'Yith regard to dr:II, discipline iand efficiency, but .also the study of the peace c•:nditi·ons in the various J.ocalities which he visited. General Kilbourne was later made Superintendent l'}f the 0-:insta.bulary Schoel ,at Baguio. ''The then Chief of Constabul.ary nerded a man,. not only industrious, but of tact m1d good judgment to supervise the instruction of the new Constabulary officers and he picked Gener.al Kilbourne. The young office1·s who graduated under his supervisicn went forth fully equipped for. thefr difficult duties in spite of the limited time alkitted for their instructi.cn. His w01·k as Superintendrnt wias perfoTf.ormed in such a highly efficient and satisfactory manner that the 1-oss of his services was keenly felt. "General Kilbourne 's , service in d is1xising l()f a b:and l'}f 1\foro pimtes which .attacked and 1coted a village in Celebes, Dutch East Indies, in March 1910, are highly commendable. He happened to be at Bong.ao at that time inspecting the Constabulary when a Dutch warship arrivoed with a report of the r.aid .and .asked a ·sistance in c.apturing the dfenders. General Kilbourne, theu..Captain Kilbcurne, imme'di.ately organize&.d a force nf Constabulary and v~lunteers, took them }}> the islands where the pirafos had been loc.ated and ~ his wise dispositicn of his f.orce and his energy in pr'Qsecuting the .cperatitms, aided greatly in the capture or death of the entire band within a few days.

These excerpts are from a General Staff Document No. 17 of the United States Army, published for the information of the Regular Army and the Organized Militia of the United States. The excerpts follow: FRANCE Promotion ,of Officers Second lieutenants are promoted to first lieutenants after two years. Lieutenants are promoted .to· captains by arm as vacancies occur, two-thirds by seniority, one-third by selection. Captains are promoted majors as vacancies occur, one-half by seniority, one-half by s·election. All promotions above majors are made by selection. GERMANY Promotion of Officers No law regulates promotion nor limits a.g·e. The Emperor promotes officers conforming to certain traditions. Practically, officers deemed fit for a higher grade are promoted by seniority. Those that are passed over are warned to apply for retirement. Promo dons take place ?-"S follows: To first lieutenant from the anti; · c;:i,ptain, by corps in the infantry, cavalry and artlllery, by arm in the chasseurs, pioneers and train; to major, from the arm, except in the infrntry, where it is by regiment. AUSTRIA-HUNGARY Proniiotion of Of jic.ers Principally by seniority, exceptionally by selection. The number of promotions by selection must not exeeed one-fifth of the vacancies. Officers can not be proposed for selection when they -are in the la~-t quarter of the seniority li'st. Promotion from the grade of colonel is exclusively by seniority, but officers thus promoted must have been found efficient.

'Second lieutenants .ire promoted after three years of service to first lieutenantcies. From first lieutenant to captain, one-fourth by selection, three-fourths by seniority, all subject to examination. Lieutenants are promoted to captaincies, even if there are no vacancies ir~ that grade, after 15 years' service as officers.

The Executive Committee of the "K~.LIPUNANG PAMBANSA NG MGA MAGBUBUKID SA PILIPIN.A!Sl'' is composed of nine members who are in charge of the propaganda work among tenants i.n the different provinces. They have organized communist sections called l;alaiigays in the different barrios of the provinces of Central Luzon. Each section is campaigning intensivelv to gain additional followers. Communist leaflets and newspapers, such as the Si nag, Ti tis, Kislap, Liuanag and Ang Bayang Api; and other Red literature are mimeographed or printed in Munila, and distributed among tenants for the purpose of feeding their minds on Soviet ideas and principles. ln their propag·anda, to foster class hatred, they inject into the mind of the mass"!s Red ~e>rum which impresses upon them the uelief that their poverty and misery are traceable to the greed of rich landowners, capitalists, and injustices of the government. In short, they tell the rank and fik that the wealth of the landlords i~ the fruit of the sweat of their labor of which they are robbed without mercy. Protect Your Properties With They spread communism in the different fac. tories, establishmenl:s and industrial firms in the Islands for the purpose of converting laborers to soviet principles. Once in every so oft~n a ce.!'lsus is taken or a complete check.up of followers is made to ascertaiJi their membership. To test their strength and influence among tlie masses, walk_ outs and strikes are ordered in factories and i.n haciendas as a sort of rehearsal to ascertain the temper of the laboring elemenlt that the leaders may decide, whether they are prepared for a social or political upheaval. The flapping wings of Sovietism are now be. ing eX''.ended to the very camps of the enlisted personnel of the Philippine armed forces. Leaflets, especially prepared for the purpose, are introduced into the ranks of these forces in ~n attempt to break their morale, weaken their discipline, con. vert them into outright Reds, and thus facilitate the overthrow of the government. The advent of the Sakdalistas, Paliha..-i ng B.a. yan, Tangulan and other radical organizations are, by and large, the danger sig.:is of the times It is part of the duty of the Insular Police to assist the constituted authorities in under1~aking an intensive tducational campaign for the enlightenment of these masses, to supervise and urge com. munity assembles in the different towns and bar· YCO Paints of Superior !l.uality MADE OF OIL Prepared or Paste These points are: 1.

It must be remembered that the reawakening and the reconstruction of Italy and Germany under the ba~ner of Facists and Nazis, respectively, have so far saved the lands of Garibaldi and Bismarck from being swept into the on rushing tide of communism. No effort should be spared to encourage the resurgence of the true Filipino spirit and the fortification of the national soul. Let the good element throughout the nation be told forceably and in no mistakeable words that only by working together .and givi.ng the best that is in them can the security of the nation and the tranquility of the home be maintained. When the average intelligent Filipino with his natural love of home pe.ace and quiet, realizes that his very future and that of his children de-pends upon the conservatio.,'1 and not upon the des. truction of the best qualities of the present social system, he will give the radical agitators a cold reception . It is then .and not until then will BoL shivism, the terror of the Romanoffs, disappear from these shores. The foregoing is part of the duty cut out for the fosular Police force to perform and when it takes its place as the guardian of the peace in the "New Deal'' for the Philippines. To profunctory enforce the law, maintain peace and preserve or. der, only, is not sufficient-it is necessary for the law enforci..'1.g machinery to inform the unlawful abiding element of society, the evil doers and rack. eteers why it is necessary that laws must be en. forced, peace must be maintained .and order must be preserved .at any cost. The Chief of iConstabula2·y in his an.nual report for the year ended December 31, 1934, made the follow!ng recommendation to curb and eradicate communistic evils: 'xx public welfare demands that proper steps be taken to curb and eradicate communis. tic evils. To this end, it is recommended that steps be taken by the proper authorities for the creation of a committee in the House of Repre. sentatives to investigate the activities of com. munism i.n he Philippines that proper laws for reforms may be enacted. These reforms are absolutely necessary owing to the fact that the executive departments of our government do not have ample authority to handl'? the revolutionary activities of communism." - · The one.millio..'1 peso Quirino Colonization Act when carried into effect will no doubt relieve the unemployment situation in Manila and in the larger neighboring towns. The enactment ! of the proposed measures recomme.n;ded by· the ·-Govern. or-General tending to uplift the downtrodden taos will likewise help ameliorate the grievance of the masses. Upon. the inception of the Commonwealth government it is also hoped that the provision of the Constitution limiting and regulating big land holdings will be put into full effect. The large haciendas have long been the source of much agrarian trouble and their speedy dissolution ancl sale in small parcels to tenants will most certainly reduce discc.ntent among the masses. In the Ilocos provinces where land holdings are small and pretty well eqnally divided, trouble between land owners and tenants are practically unknown.

These policies have been found to be very popular and attractive because they combine all the advantages, and privileges of the regular blue seal policies of the company, besides giving the advantages of a regular family income and a retirement pension for the insured. Giving an idea of the services rendered by the company to the Filipino people, the manager reported that for the year 1934 alone t'iie lnsu1a: :: Life distributed throughout different parts of the Islands a total of Pl,154,689.12 as follows : Matured Policies ..... . ......... · :P2€·9,430.79 Dividends for Policy Holders .. · · 198,317.44 Cash Surrender Values ........ ·. 436,144.95 Disability Payments ..... · .. · · · · 6,705.90 Death Claim Payments .. · · .. · · · · 245,090.00 As evidence of the liberal policy followed by the company, towards its policy-holders, the rate of interest charged to policy loap.s has been voluntarily reduced from 8 per cent to 6 per cent despite the fact that the policies as already issued did not call for such reduction. Great progress in the amount of business written by the Hawaii agency of the Insular Life during its first year of existence was also reportea by the manager.

The first officer w.as Lieutenant Harry Miller, U. S. A. and the enlisted men were recruited in Bontcc from lowlanders and natives. The Constabulary Reservation was where .jt is n.:iw, it occupies a little more than a hectare in the heart nf the community. The first b: uildings were the barr.acks built like a stable and cne officer's quarters built in the type of a native house-.all made d po:ir materials and constructed with crdue workmanship. The residence of the Senior Inspect.or, n0w Provincial Ccmmander, was at Bontoc because Lubuagan was then a part d Bon toe. With the divis'.on of the Mcuntain Province intn sub-provinces, Lubuagan became the c.apit,al of the subprovince of Kalinga and the c.:impany ceased to be under the contl'c.l nf the Senior Inspectcr of Bontoc. Since then this company has been a sep.ar.ate and complete unit. In the old days, the company had great difficulty in bringing in its necessary supplies .and equipments for lack of l'Oad except .a horse trial which :was hardly passable. They had to be transported .at a distance nf 70 kikmeters from Bontoc to Lub:uagan by means .:if native cargadores iand pack-horses, which took abriut five days to travel The cargiadores had got to be guarded fl'C m head-hunters; pack~hnrses and properties to be watched over from being st·::>len; and the hardest d all w.as to build c.amping shelters at every- stopping place along the w.ay. The old day having gone by; the company no wenjnys g~c d transp.:irtation facilities with almost a first class automobile line connecting Lubuagan with the outside world. The company has an .actual strength of 39 men, cncsisting d 34 husky native Kalingas and 5 Ilncanos, officered by Second Lieutenant G. Balboen.a as Company Commander, and 1st Lieutenant R. S.

In the old days when government control w.as unknown .at all iarnnng the different warring tribes, the company was charged with the responsabili ty of esti:.b.lishing civil government by crganizing i·.ancherias .and settlements and .:if bringing hostile tribes tngether thl'o'Ugh '' canaos'' or fiestas so as to build up friendly relations among themselves.

The company patrols, the district covering 16, • 759 kilometers or an average. These patrols visit all the sitios and barrios in the district and their contacts with the mass has considerably lessened the corr.mission of crimes particularly cattle rustling, offenses against person and ViolaUon of the hunting 1aw. Aside fro'TI purely Constabulary work this command lent invaluable cooperation to the bureau of animal industry by maintaining quarantine posts near and along the jurisdictional lines between the provinces of Isabela and Ifuga·o. Animals such as carabaos; cows; horses; goats; pigs; dogs and sheeps, when crossin,g the quarantined for 5 days before they were allowed to pass through. With this, was partly attributed the suppression of animals diseases in this district. The Constabulary in this station perform duties similar tc that of "missionary'. While out of the statio.n officers and enlisted men, aside from their patrol ·work, invariably explain to the natives the advantages of advance civilization such as the building of well-ventilated houses, the utility of modern medicarr.ent's, the essentials of sanitation and the impotanc-i:: of educaUon. The soldiern likewise have a great deal to do in the construction and keepin,g up of trails, as they are often called upon the round up road-tax laborers. The Station Commander, has the confidence of the people; tr. him they invariably go when they have any trouble. In this way he is able to adjust local misunderstanding and differences among themselves thus preventing commission of crimes.
