States. Mr.. Quezon and the Hon. Ser
gio Osmena, Speaker OF the Philippine
House of Representatives and Vice
President Of the Council of State, are
the leaders of the Nacionallsta party,
which has been In power since 1907.
While Speaker Osmena is not so well
known In the United States as Quezon,
he is Nconsidered one of the ablest men
In the Islands. Senate President Que
zon recently referred to Osmena as
"the greatest Filipino since Rial"
The personal relations between Os-
mena and QueZon are probably without
a parallel In modern politics, They
have been the leading political figures
in the islands for II years, yet there
has never been the slightest indication
of rivalry between them Throughout
their college life as well as their long
political service each has refused to be
a candidate for any position that the
other aspired to.
During the years Quezon wns the
Philippine delegate in the American
Congress he won the esteem and con-
fldence Of both the Republican and
Democratic sides Of the chamber.
Whenever he spoke ne was assured OF
a good attendance. One of the official
short hand reporters once declared
Quezon used the purest English of any
member of the House.
Osmena, as president of the Nacion-
Rlista party, Is the leader Of the na-
tional movement for independence.
"Osmena is the premier de facto' Of
the Philippines" said leading Fillpl-
