SAYS FREE PHILIPPINES
WOULD JOIN THE LEAGUE
M. Quezon Tells Joint Conference
on Insular Affairs Islands
Ready to Elect Governor.

, Manuel Quezon. formerly Philippine
delegate in Congress and now president
of the Philippine senate, told the joint
conference on insular affairs yesterday,
which gave a hearing on the Philippine
plea for independence, that the Filipinos
in urging action by Congress were will
ing to take their chances against the
possibility of enemy aggression by seek
ing membership in the league of nations,
and if given their independence would
elect a governor and have full legisla-
tive machinery in operation in sixty
days.
1t was pointed out by speakers that
even if the league should not be final
ly ratified. the plea for immediate
recognition of the sovereignty of the
islands would be urged. They said
they regarded only lightly fears that
some day the islands might be seized,
and that both political factions were
agreed that the time had come when
the United States should permit the
dominant party to set up govern
ment which would have the support
of the entire people.

RATES, SAYS MR.W00LLEY
He. Senator Cummins and D. J.

Considerations in the return of the

outlined by Robert w. Woolley Of the

Senator Albert S. Cummins and David
J. Lewis of the tariff commission at
the conference on public utilities held
at the headquarters of the National
merican Woman Suffrage Association
last night.
"StabiIizing of the freight rates. in
order that the high cost OF living
may not become higher; the destruc-
ton of privilege through this freight
rate: proper and ample guarantees for
labor, and permanent safeguarding
of invested capital are the big consid-
erations," said Mr.. Wooley. Con
slider freight transportation in rela-
ton to the high cost of living" the
speaker advised, before succumbing
the canned clamor for the end of fed
eral control"
Senator Cummins reviewed the at
tempts to legislate for the transporta-
ton problem, and praised the Inter
state Commerce Commission highly,
declaring that eff there has been fall
ure, it is the failure of the system,
and not Of its administration"
