Want Jones Bill Put oH-commlttee Minority Holds That Criticism of American Policy Would Enoour-
 age Aggression in Far East

Washington. - Protesting against further agitation in Congress al this time of the Jones bill providing q new Governmental plan for the Philippine Islands, five Republican members of the House lnsular Affairs Committee, in a minority report filed. declared that a continuation of the discussion almost certainly would mean the drawing of the United States into the European conflict Both Japan and Germany were mentioned as probable antagonists.
 The Jones bin is now before the House with the ndorsement of the Administration. aud the Rules Com mittee has adopted a special rule to make 1t the continuing order of busi- ness of the House. once the emergen- cy was legislation Is out of the way.
 The minority members say in their report:
 'sro enter upon a debate in which all our relations and interests in the Pacific would be discussed and our rights in the Philippines, Hawaii, Sa- mos, and Guan challenged would he to encourage disregard for our in- terests and lead nations with oppos- ing interests to believe the United States would not go far in derense of possessions so lightly regarded by those in control of the Government. To make the nations of Che world be- lieve we are anxious to get rid of the Philippines is to invite aggression. which would mean war"
 The report was signed by Repre- sentatives Towner, Miller. FesS, Young. and Peters. A supplementary minority report by Representative Frear was also filed. In il Mir. Frear sad that without agreeing to all of the minority report he believed the emergency provision 10 permit the Philippines 10 act immediately for their own protection should he en- acted inta law at ence.
 The majority committeeman In charge of nsular affairs were sharply taken to task in the minority report for their refusal to adopt in commit tee a resolution offered by the min. oriN recommending postpouemen, of further legislative action on the Philippine bin during the present ses- sion. The resolution, it was said, was turned down by party vote, all the Democrats opposing it.
