 Manila, July i2.--Military head quarters today issued this statement in commenting upon its change Of policy toward members Of the Phil ippine Scouts who recently refused duty at Fort Mckinley:
 "followinG a careful review of the proceedings of the boards Of officers charged with investigation of the un- fitness for retention in service of in- dividual Philippine Scouts involved in disturbances at Fort Mckinley, it has been decided that the testimony in many cases indicates their insub- ordination was much more active than at first supposed. In practically all cases under consideration the in- dividuals before the boards exhibited an attitude of disrespect and defiance and expressed themselves as fully cognizant of the grave military aspect of their offense.
 Indications are that a consider able number of the 206 men so con- dueted themselves as to render in- advisable the maximum penalty as- sessed by tho boards, namely. dis charge without honor, but with full pay and allowances.
 Action on the proceedings of all the boards in these cases therefore has been suspended pending further investigation with view to trials by courts martial where necessary.
 "It is inpracticable at present to state how many will be tried but it is expected eventually that large proportion of those soldiers whose elimination has been recommended by the boards will come before military courts"
