The Chairman of the Committee on Insular Affairs of the House of Representatives (Fairfield) to the Secretary of State

Washington, March 25, 1924.

Dear Sir: The Insular Affairs Committee of the House of Representatives has directed me to inquire of the State Department as to whether the granting of Independence at this time to the Philippine Islands would be contrary to any provisions of the Four Power Pact.⁵¹

An early reply would be very much appreciated.

Very sincerely yours,

Louis W. Fairfield
