FILIPINOS FAIL TO
RECOGNIZE CLASS
With WOOD
Protest Generals Lies
Too Respectfully
Especial to The Daily worker)

MANILA, May 2.-One Of the larg-
est mass meetings that have ever
been held in Manila took place Mon
day at the Grand Opera House to pro-
test against the uncalled for and un-
justified assertions Of Governor Cen
eral Wood against the Filipinos CON
tanned in the cablegram to the Sec
rotary of War which he had published.
The meeting was organized and par
ticipated in by the majority and min
GRITTY parties of the PHILIPPINES, labor
unions, professions, representative of
Filipino capital and other bodies This
protest is general throughout the en-
tire archipelago. Resolutions Of pro-
test are continually pouring into the
office of the Philippine independence
Commission at Manila from all corners
Of the Philippines.
At the Manila mass meeting the
following resolution was adopted:
Resolution.
I'VE, residents of Manila, gathered
in mass meeting at Manila April 81,
1924, in defense Of the Filipino peo-
pie and their just aspirations and
urged by deep sense of patriotic duty
hereby make known solemnly and
publicly our formal sincere and ener-
getic protest against the declarations
contained in the cablegram of Gov
ernor General Wood to che secretary
Of war. We consider that these declar-
atoms deeply wound our sentiments
as people; that they are unfounded;
they constitute an offense to the good
name, character and dignity of the
Filipino race and nation; that they
are inspired by prejudice inherent;
plan for political and economic domi-
nation and imperialistic tendencies;
that they are in open and direct con-
tradiction with respect to law and to
the spirit of peace, order, and prog
ress Of which the Filipino people have
always given proof and which Cover
nor General Wood himself in previous
official reports forwarded to the Sec
rotary of War could not help but ad-
nit and recognize; that they abso-
lutely lack foundation either in light
Of statistical data or facts; finally.
declarations of this character, made
solely for the purpose of preventing
the Filipino people from obtaining the
independence to which they have a
right, only serve to create in the
minds OF the Filipinos suspicion and
doubt as to the real intention and
purposes Of America in the Philip
pines and to destroy thus the friendly
relations existing between Americans
and Filipinos which the two people
are under equal obligation to promote
and preserve permanently in this
country. In making this protest we
do so without any feeling of hatred
or sentiment of hostility or animal
version toward the high official who
has provoked it and without in the
least diminishing the respect and 10y
atty to American sovereignty. We
make it solely for the love of truth
and in the interest of justice and |
above all in defense of what we be- |
lieve to be ours by right, thus reafirm- |
ing once more one sole natinoal |
creed: 1.-THE immediate, complete and |
absolute independence of the Filipino
people"

Expectation that President Cool

to him by the District Commission
ers with their recommendation, was
voiced at the White House today.
Whether he will sign or veto the
measure is a matter Of conjecture.
The opposition to the bill by thou
sands of influential residents and
practically all organizations of the
District is understood by him. Con-
gress passed the bill, however, by
large majority. This, it 10 declared,
will not Influence the President in
his action.
The bill it is understood will
reach the White House early today
and go directly to the President. +,
The bill is being vigorously OPP
posed owing to the personal tax
feature which makes a levy of $1.20
per 500 on the cars valuation. 1t
also provides for 81 registration
fee and a. tax OF cents gallon
on gasoline.

Even though he had long cast

Coolidge May Sign.
President Coolidge's attitude to-
ward the. bill remained in. doubt
today, although the last official
word from the White House was
that he was opposed to a bonus in
any form. This announcement
however. was made at q time when
there was NJ talk of anything ex
cept a cash bonus, such as President
Harding vetoed. and unconfirmed
reports have been current for sew
eral days that Mr.. Coolidge will
approve the insurance policy plan
now supported by Administration
leaders in Congress.
There 10 feeling, too, that the
Presidents opposition has been
weakened by the notice served
upon him by his lieutenants at the
Capitol that they will be forced to
vote against him should he elect
to exercise his right Of veto. The
Republican leaders in the Senate
declare. that they have enough
votes to nullify the veto. and they
are ready to use them.
Support from Democrats.
Confronted by this situation,
many of the Democrats, already
pledged to support the bonus, will
throw their votes behind the in
surance bill after making an effort
to have the Senate give the vet
Grams straight cash payments as
an optional plan.
From any angle, the President
has delicate and difficult prob.
lem to deal with. If he approves
why he has changed his mind since
declaring he was opposed to the
bonus; and II he vetoes it, there is
every chance In the world that this
veto-the first that he has exer.
ctsed-will not be sustained by q
Republican Congress.
Bill Little Changed.
The bill to be passed by the Sen.
ate is almost identical with the
House bill. assuring little delay in
conference before the measure
reaches the White House.
The only veterans who will re-
ceive cash are those entitled to $50
or less at the rate of 81 a day for
home service and $1.25 a day for
service overseas. All the others will
get the insurance policies. the
amounts being figured on the same
per diem basis. It Is estimated that
the cost Of the bill win be less than
