A joint statement from Senate

Written for the United Press

MANILA, July 25.-'' o~ some
time past we have repeatedly secy-
ed notice to the governor general
by correspondence and through per
sonal conferences and public speech
es that we would extend co-Opera-
tion only so long as he conformed
his acts to the Jones law, allow
ing the Filipino people to continue
exercising that degree of authority
already enjoyed by them. -
This was the statement of Sen
ate President Quezon and Speaker
Roxas, answering the statements
of General Wood that he was not
informed of the causes for COM
plaint and was surprised at the re-
signation of the government. Also
that he followed the advice of the
departmental secretaries and that
the designations constitute an at
tack against the American repre-
sentative.
For several days Immediately
preceding the crisis we made efforts
TO avert a rupture" President Que
zon and Speaker ROxas continued.
And earlier in the evening Of the
day when the designations were
rendered we discussed the whole
subject for two hours with the gov
ernor, but to no avail.
General Wood, therefore, was
duly informed of our protests
and compaints.
General Wood has tried running
the Philippine government by him
self, aided by military advisers.
Resignation Only Protest
"The resignation of the cabinet
does not constitute an attack
against American sovereignty or
the lawful authority of its repre-
sentatives in the islands. The re-
siguations were simply an orderly
but firm protest against injustice
and the encroachment Of rights
guaranteed by the Jones law and
secured by the laws Of the country. -
Public order is not disturbed IN
the islands. The Manila Chief of
Police interfered with peaceful
gatherings but aftervard this was
disavowed by Genera Wood. Then
radio officials refused TO transmit
messages of the Filipino independ-
enee commission unless General
Wood authorized them to DO so. This
~ contrary to the usual practice,
thereby delaying for t" days
messages intended for the aflrma-
tion of the American people
General Wood later cxI ined
that radio office refusal TO l.ndlc
the commission S message W.. due
TO a Misunderstanding OF nrders
issued from his office without his
knowledge.
These incidents greatly provoked
the Filipinos, who have exhibited
self-eontrol and unanimously con
slider the incident as a conflict be
ween autocratic and constitutional
hts and not as challenge TO
rican sovereignty.

|. W. W. TO SEEK
COURT DELAY
IN INJU NOTION
Failure of Petition May
Close Office In Los
Angeles
By United Press Leased wire

SACRAMENTO, Cal, July 20
The question Of permanent in
junction against the |. w. W. plac-
ing in contempt of court all mem
bers of the organization probably
will not be decided when it comes
/ before Superior Judge Busick here
today.
District Attorney j. J. Hcndcr-
son announced today he has infor-
nation that counsel for the Indus
/ trial Workers of the World will ask
for a postponement for more
! thorough preparation of their case
The temporary restraining order
several days ago by Judge Busick k
has aroused nation wide interest
and in some cases criticism of what
is called bv many editors "an at
tempt to break down the consti-
tutional right of the individual to
trial by jury
The general defense commit
tee which carries on the legal
fights of the |. W. w. contends
that the fundamental question of
free speech is involved in the case,
as well as the trial by jury ques-
tion.
The present temporary restrain
ing order does, and the proposed
permanent injunction would, en-
power any superior court judge to
imprison without trial any member
of the organization.
Contempt Procedure
The procedure is Il contempt pro
cedure and is based on the assump-
tion that members of the I. w. w.
having been duly warned that their
membership in the I. w. w. is un-
lawful, have defied the courts in
maintaining that membership.
In the eyes of District Attorney
Henderson who appealed for the
injunction, the ease resembles that
of an individual who has threaten
ed to commit crime and is put
under peace bond or otherwise res
trained from carrying out his pur-
pose.
"The organization is committed
to policy of force and violence, -
he declares. cts members are CON
victed in our courts on this basis
right along. The question of free
speech does not enter into the mat
ter at all. 1t is question of free
action-action of violence.
And to this statement the I. w.
W. legal defenders reply that no
member has been convicted in re-
cent years of using force or vio-
lence. They declare that the
states criminal syndicalism act of
1919 is out of date as applied to
the organization, but that convic-
tions are still being secured under
it.
And they add that even if the ori-
ginal law was applicable to the I.
W. W. at the present time the in
junction in effect would denv
members the right of jury trial and
is in direct opposition to the CON
stitution of the United States.

Furniture Style Origin.

The story of modern furniture right
ly begins with the crumbling of the
Middle ages. The baronial hall stage,
with its religious formality, combined
with its rugged simplicity, was being
followed by more withdrawn. domes-
tic and luxurious life. As always, this
was reflected In the furniture. The
strong and simple high and narrow
Gothic style. with Its characteristic
pointed arch, began TO be debased.
France is said TO be the first coun-
try to be Influenced by the Italian Re
naissance. but there the Gothic and
the classic FLASHED. The process OF
grating the Italian style on the Gothic
hardly began In England until 1850
when II was nearly completed In
France. BY the end of Elizabeth's
reign, 1908, there was a semblance Of
unity, and the Jacobean period Gre
ated itself.
