There are manyAmericans who, have sacrificed theirtime -and efforts because of their lovefor justice and for our cause.We hear of many Filipinos in dif--ferent parts of the country praisingtheir American friends for what these': friends 'liave done for' them. We hearof Americans being referred to as their"mothers," or with equivalent affec-tionate. terms. These countrymen ofmine have reason to call these goodpeople with such terms. In this coun-try unlejs you have friends, life isreally a sad thing. Fortunately, thereare some people who see only thehuman side of life, It is these peoplewho come forth to offer their assist-ance. They thoroughly appreciate thefact that a little kindness to the home-sick will gladden the latter's heart be-yond words, To them service is a joy,Without this type of Americans, life inthis country would be unbearable in-deed.Here in the State of New York, Fil-ipinos are. fortunate to have a friend inthe person of Assemblyman William F.Smith. Like. thousands of Americanshe h'as .never met a Filipino before hemet the writer, who has struggled invain 'f~lmost seven years to take theIhr ~fnina:tions in this State and beadmitted 10 practice law, And like ,alltrue Americans his desire to be of ser-vice to .those deprived of justice dom-inates -his whole being. This is becom-ing lnore manifest as I know him more ..Before I met this friend. of the Fil-ipinos in this State, I saw .and wrote . to men of prominence who assured me

2 T'HE FILIPINO STUDENT BULLETINAssemblyman William F. Smith(Continued from page 1, col. 1)

I have also spoken before the graduatedivision of the New York UniversitySchool of Law, of which I was a mem-ber in 19'29. As a . result of this, Prof.John Edmond Hewitt of that institu-tion rendered every encouragement andappointed a Committee of Five to actas my counsel.I have strong faith {n the justice ofmy fight and, at last, I met the manwho meant business, As r said before,he had not seen a Filipino until thewriter was introduced to him, and, inspite of that fact, he immediately gotto work and introduced the bill thatnow bears his name. Mr. John A. Rossof 111 J ohn St., New York City, whohas observed and 'sympathized with mein my fruitless efforts to take the Barexaminations in New York, and whointroduced me to Assemblyman Smith,said. "I know an Assemblyman who.wil! help you', and he is 'aniaii 'wli:o' hasalways kep.t hi's word. If you care to

see ,him,. I will give you a letter ofintroduction. He is a friend of mine:"I went to Mr. Smith's office. I told'him the story of my difficulties, whichcovered more than six years' period.After hearing my story, he said, "1shall try to do what I can for you, Mr ..Manzon." He said nothing else butthat, vet r became fully convinced thatsomething was going to .be done, T'her ewas a different tone in the ring of hisvoice, It was a voice of earnestness,sincerity and candor. And two dayslater, when I .ca me back t o his office,he said, "It is a good thing you came,I was, just thinking of you a momentago," He reached over his desk andshowed me a copy of the letter he

wrote to Judge Cardozo of the Courtof Appeals, asking that the Judge dosomething to remedy the situation. Henot only wrote to the Judge but wentto the Court of Appeals to plead mycause, and from Albany be wrote ad-vising me that 'the Court suggestedthat I should file a petition for per-mission to take ,the Bar Examination.This I did.The Court did 110t seem aware of theexact status of the Filipinos in Amer-ica, for, in its reply to my petition, itsaid, in part, "The Cour.t is desirous to.know what your idea was in applyingfor, permission to take the Bar,", andit suggested at the same time that" theCourt is sufficiently' interested in your

case.. and would give further considera-tion: if you would care' to amplify yourpetition or file brief in support there-of." I filed my brief, and the COUItin its reply stated that it was power-less to change the law, but suggestedthat my remedy was with the Legisla-ture,The State Legslature was already 1nsession, and nothing was done yet. Iwrote to Assemblyman Smith and toldhim I was very anxious for news. Iheard nothing from him, but my con-fidence in his words were unshakeable.I called him up at his office when hecame back to tOWIl, and in his char-acteristic brevity told me not to worry,and that I would hear from him. Thenon April 9th, he wired me, in answer to

my telegram, that the bill was intro-duced in the Assembly and Senate, andthat he would advise me later, Iwasnervously anxious, and on the 11th dayof April, 1930, I received a telegramfrom him informing me of the goodnews that the bill passed' both branchesof the Legislature and that it wasgoing to. the Governor for his 'signa-ture. The news brought joy to myheart. One can easily appreciate myfeelings, after seven years of waiting!And on April 25th, 1930, GovernorRoosevelt signed the bill, and it be-came ,\1 law of New York State. Thebill bears the name of the Filipinos'friend, and it is now known as CHAP-TER 8( )Z of the Laws of 1930 of the 'State of New York, It permits Fil-ipinos, who are residents of this State,to take the Bar Examinations and beadmitted to practice law.Assemblyman Smith opened the wayfor Filipinos in New York. They cannow have lawyers of their own kind,the 'same as other nationalities,' whospeak 'their sentiments. They can havelegal representatives of their own be-fore the Courts of Justice in 'NewYork.I learned from Assemblyman Smiththat Senator Marcellus H, Evans in-troduced the bill in the Senate, and Iwen t to see the good Senator to thankhim for what he bas done. The Sen-ator is a man of the type of Assembly-man Smith, He speaks in few words,and to the point. He said, "Bill work-ed hard for you, He is a hard worker,and a hustler. 'vVe all admired theway he put your bill through." TheSenator, like the men whom I have hadthe pleasure of seeing afterwards, is aman of firm conviction, a believer inhuman justice, and a friend of those

who struggle for an ideal. He toldme that he thoroughly appreciated mysituation because he also had had toelbow his way thr u school. I-Ie is oneof those who never lets anything dragalong. He said in bis letter to me thatevery pressure should be brought uponthe Governor for his early approval ofthis humanitarian piece of legislation.,When I came to his o-ffice, he repeatedit, and the next day, when I came 'backto show him the letter I wrote to 111r.Rosenman, Counsel to the Governor,upon his suggestion, and asked hisopinion' about it, he said, "Very good."And instead of handing -back the letterto me, he called in his Secretary, andtold her to put postage stamp on it,after sealing it himself, and asked herto mall it .right away. From this littleact, I saw ,the real man himself. Hehates wastes of time, and his responset o requests of which he is capable ofdoing Is spontaneous.I also had the pleasure of seeingpersonally Assemblyman Frank A.Carlin, of New York, who is a memberof the Judiciary Committee in thisState, and who has done a whole lot inthat body to push the bill thru. Hespoke very highly of the Senator, andof Assemblyman Smith, he said, "B1I1certainly worked hard for this bill. Heworked harder for it than he did forthe other bills he Introduced, and. thereare qurie a number of them, His heart

EDITORIALSCONGRATULATIONS AND BEST

WISHESWe take this opportunity to extendour heartiest congratulations and bestwishes for a successful career to our.fellow country men, who' have grad-'uated this past school year from thevarious colleges and universities of thiscountry. We covet for them the match-less opportunities th.at are theirs byreason of their training in the develop-ment of our Motherland, We needto-day leaders, not only in the field ofpolitics, hut also in economics. ~ndreligiou. Above all, we need Christianleaders, men and women who wouldplace the people's and. country's wel-f;.l.I:eabove self and personal aggran-,'dizement. May 'we not catch the true

i' ..spirit of the Poet when he prayed:'"Dear Lord, I do not ask for gain'Nor wealth within itself:. .: Unhappiness is oft the bane, Of him who lives for pelf."Dear Lord, I do not ask for power,For oft mine eyes have seenThat he who climbs earth's highesttowerHast lost tha vway serene."I do but ask for health and peaceAnd wherewithal to live,And, if Thou shouldst my goods in-crease,The faculty to give."T . do but ask an humble heart,All upward looking soul,The' will to make an earnest start,

And strength to reach the goal."To serve mankind, Iask for love,For that's the only wayThat Imay reach Thy Throne above,Thy bounties to .repay,"These things, dear Lord, Imeeklyask, .In deep humility,That I may go aboutmv taskOf serving- man and T'hce."

-M. A. A.WHY CANIT WE?

The other day, I came across twolines from the pen of a Negro, which. throw light upon my inquisitive mindof, the attitude of some of our fellowChristians toward others who are dif-ferentiated primarily by the. color ofthe skin. ."You say your Jesus set-a. you free,Why don't you let-a your neighborbe?"These. are. two sententious statementswhich we professing. Christ ians.oug~t ito' take cognizance of. We delight Inour being Christians and proclaim Ott!Jesus as .the One who died upon the'Cross that you and I might be free.We call Him Love, an-d recite Hisdeeds of loving-kindness. We rejoice ill our having Him as our Lord andSavior anel sympathize with the "heath-ens" whose future we occupy ourselveswith motherly solicitude and wonderwhy they are so slow in acceptingJesus. Why? We ask ourselves .. Itis plain, We love Jesus, but we 'donot practice His teachings. We do notlive His life. We talk much, but doless, May we not talk less and domore? The "heathens" would then be

convinced that our God is the God ofLove. "If Jesus set-a. you free, whydorr't , you let-a your neighbor be?"Neighbor? Wily don't you let-a yourbrother be? Why .Can't We?-M .. A. A.WHO IS M.Y NEIGHBOR?

When Jesus was asked, "And who.is my neighbor?", He told the Parableof the. Good Samaritan, which is re-corded in the Gospel according to St.Luke, Chapter lO.30-3?, inclusive,"A certain man went down "fromIerusalern to J.ericho. .He fell .~):no11:&":'thieves, who stripped him of hIS rat-men.t, wounded him and departed,leaving him half dead. By chance therecame down a certain priest that way.When the priest saw the man, he pass-ed on by the other side,' Likewise"when a Levite came that way he only looked at him and passed on by th ...other side also."But a certain Samaritan. ashe jour"neyed came where the dying man was. Whel{ he saw him he had compassionall. him and went to him and bound uphis wounds. Then he brought him toan inn on his beast and there took careof him.. The next morning when hedeparted, be took out two pence, andgave them to the host, and said to him,'Take care of him. and whatsoever thouspendest jnore, when I come again, Iwill repay thee.'"Which now of these three, thinkest

thou, was neighbor unto him that fellamong the' thieves?" asked Jesus. Theman said, "He that showed mercy onhim." Then said Jesus, "Go, and dothou likewise."In this beautiful story Jesus showsus our neighbors and portrays the love

of a man for his fellow man that par-takes of the divine grace of the Creatorof all things. It is made mare mar-velous when we learn that the Jewsand the Samaritans were not in goodterms at that time. The Samaritan hadmuch more reason, therefore, to go onby the other side of the street than' did.either the Priest or the Levite. Yet,humble and an unassuming as be was,he knew more how to do a Christianact than either the sacr ificial Priest orthe presumptuous Levite,Jesus did not explain who a.ur neigh-bors are either by geographical loca-tions or by the proximity of tb~ .~lace,He did not show that our neighborsare only those who live near us as is

our ordinary understanding of theword. And were Jesus living to-day,I am sure He would not say that ouronly neighbors are the Chinese, Kor-eans, and Japanese and the peopl~ 'o rthe nearby countries. No, Our neigh-bars are the sick, the afflicted, and theneedy no matter what race and countrythey may belong and status, they. !TIa>;have in society. We are neighbors OIthe needy. We are here not only toalleviate the pain .and suffering of thesick by our Christian ministries, butalso to awaken, invigorate, and vitalizethe 'dormant and lethargic spiritual lifeof our people to the consciousness thatthe world is but a larger family than.our own with God as our heavenlyFather, and we all are His childrenbound together by a "tie that bnids"-the love for one anothcr.c=M.
