Excerpt from Philippine Government The many and important changes that have been effected recently in the organization and administration of the Philippine Government make necessary an up-to-date textbook on this subject adapted to the needs of school pupils, teachers, and young citizens generally. With the Jones Law came autonomy and a greater need for an enlightened public opinion. At this particular stage in the development of Philippine institutions, the Government occupies a place of unusual prominence in the public mind and in the press. The day has come in which one who would read current Philippine news understandingly, think correctly, or act the part of a good citizen, must possess some knowledge of the Government and its functions. Moreover, the provisions of the Jones Law increased enormously the percentage of voters and consequently the number of citizens who participate actively and effectively in governmental affairs. It seems to the writer that one of the greatest needs of the new-fledged voter is a brief and concise treatise that will acquaint him with the powers and the operation of the Government, his relation to the state, and his rights and duties as a citizen thereof.
