Philippine Commission of Independ-
ence Comes Out Into che Open in
Their Opposition.

Washington, March 29.-Philippine
opposition to the Wood-Forbes mission
to study the question of Philippine in
dependence came out into the open
here. The Philippine commission of
independence, an official body support
ed by the island government, which
maintains headquarters and prop
uganda agency here, attacked Presi-
dent Harding's decision to consider
the question in this way.
In it's regular press bulletin the
independence commission declared that
w. Cameron Forbes, selected by the
President as joint investigator with
Maj. Gen. Leonard Wood, cannot rem
der an impartial report, "even if he
wants to-"
With regard to General Wood, the
commission says: "The Philippines are
loath to place any credence," i'll ''the
opinion advanced" by political OBJ
servers" that the general will hand
in any kind of report he Is being sent
to the Philippines to obtain. ~
The commissions statement declared
that former President Taft wants Mr..
Forbes to be governor general of the
islands again for at least year.

PEACE BEFORE

Soviet Russia's Business

NEEDS FUNDAMENTAL CHANGES
Declares Resumption of Commerce
With United States Depends on
Ending Strife, and Protection
of Persons and Property.

Washington, March 28.-Resump-
Russia will depend upon satisfactory
assurance that fundamental changes
are contemplated involving due re-
gard for the protection of persons
and property and the establishment
of conditions essential to the MAIN
Hughes says in message sent to
the Russian soviet representative at
Reval.
The message is in reply to the re-
cent appeal of the soviet government
at Moscow that the United States
again trade with Russia and that it
negotiate with delegation to be
sent to this country for the purpose
by the soviet authorities.
The note was transmitted through
the American consul at Reval, as the
original message from the soviet gov
eminent was received there.
''The government of the United
States says the communication,
views with deep sympathy and grave
concern the plight of the people of
Russia and desires to aid by every
appropriate means in promoting
proper opportunities through which
commerce can be established upon
sound basis. It is manifest to this
government that in existing circum-
stances there is no assurance for the
development of trade, as the supplies
which Russia might now be able to
obtain would be wholly inadequate to
meet her needs and no lasting good
can result SO long as the present
causes of progressive impoyerishment
continue to operate. It is only in the
productivity of Russia that there is
any hope for the Russian people, and
it is idle to expect resumption Of
trade until the economic bases of pro-
duction are securely established.
Production is conditioned upon the
safety of life the recognition by firm
guarantees of private property; the
sanctity of contract, and the rights of
free labor. If fundamental changes
are contemplated involving due re-
gard for the protection of persons and
property and the establishment Of
conditions essential to the main
tenance of commerce, this govern
ment will be glad to have convincing
evidence of the contamination of such
changes, and until this evidence is
supplied this government is unable
to perceive that there is any proper
basis for considering trade relations"
The State department is known to
take the position that there was no
occasion at this time to reply spe-
officially to the proposal of the Boil
sheviki that trade delegation be re-
ceived by the American government.
Sufficient opportunity, it is held, is
given in the request Of the American
government for assurances from the
soviet government Of change in
heart as affecting their communistic
principles and the rights Of private
property for later consideration of
the question Of the reception of
soviet delegation.

Under Jurisdiction of r. r. Body.

Under Jurisdiction OF r. r. Body.
Jitney regulation has f1ared up in
the legislature again with the persist
ent demand on the part of the trac-
ton lines to bring omnibuses under
the railroad commission. The joint
legislative highway committee has
been asked to recommend for passage
the Perry bill, introduced by Clark M.
Perry, assemblyman from Oshkosh.
This bill provides all automobiles
operated over regular routes and main
tanning regular schedules shall be
brought under the jurisdiction of the
railroad commission as common car
riers. The effect of the passage OF
the measure would be the elimination
of bus lines operated in direct COM
petition with interurban lines. The
railroad commission would have the
power to rule against such COMPETE
tion where no public convenience or
necessity for such service was ap-
parent. The bill would increase the
liability Of bus companies from $4,000
to $4,000 in addition to making them
common carriers. While all lines would
be subject to railroad commission reg
ulations, only those in competition
with other common carriers would be
put out Of business, advocates of the
measure said.

Hoodwink Tobaceo Growers.

Many cigars labeled pure Havana"
contain a sprig Of Havana and much
Wisconsin tobacco. Wisconsin tobacco
is sent from the state labeled ''binders
and comes back into the state labeled
wrappers" Tobacco growers are be-
ing beaten out of thousands Of dollars
each year because of an improper grad
ing of Wisconsn's products, the joint
finance committee Of the legislature
was told by G. nj. Pulley, representing
the tobacco growers of the state. wis
consin tobacco is the only leaf grown
in this country having a neutral ma
vor," Pulley told the committee men,
bers. 'Ir is therefore mixed with Ha-
vana and Porto Rico tobacco and sold
as foreign product Our short tobacco
is resweated until it becomes dark and
heavy and then passes onto the market
as a foreign tobacco. The tobacco
grower sells Wisconsin tobacco, but the
middleman sells Wisconsin tobacco as
foreign tobacco and gets the higher
price" The tobacco growers want a
tobacco division added to the division
of markets. They have asked the legis-
lature for an expert to assist them in
marketing their product. Buyers tell
the Wisconsin growers they cannot
raise wrapper tobacco here Pulley
said. "They say that Connecticut is
the only state in the Union that can
produce this variety. Yet Wisconsin
wrappers are sold on the general mar
ket. In the East there are quotations
on Wisconsin wrappers, yet none are
sold by growers in this state. All our
tobacco is sold as binders at 90 cents
per pound. Wrappers bring $3.50 per
nOund."
