Manila, May 24.-The discomfort among
the natives at the appointment OF Amer
lean Judges and alleged discrimination In
the civil service In favor of Americans
Is finding expression, encouraged by some
OF the native judges, who are aware that
the reorganization of the judiciary will
result In the loss OF their positions.
Judge Nero of the court Of first instance
OF Tondo, one OF the leaders of what Is
beginning TO be called the radical wing Of
the federalists, declared today that If yuch
things continue there will he a second rev

ridlcule the prediction. The Philippine

thoroughly considered. 1t Is undcniable
that most Of the native judges lack the
competence required. One of them has
been removed for malfeasance and others
are suspected OF Irregularities. The elias
sihcatlons OF the civil service avoid dis
ordinations, but native and Spanish quail
lhcations are not equal to those of capable
Americans Some departments are employ
