WILL WOOD Veto
The PHILIPPINE
PLEBISCITE ACT?
Governor General Silent
on Future Action

MANILA, P. L. July 2S.-Will Gov.
ernor General Wood dare to veto the
bill passed by both houses of the
Philippine legislature providing for a
popular referendum on the issue of
full, complete and immediate indie
pendence from American rule?
This question is on the lips Of every
one in the islands-everyone that Is.
except the governor general himself,
who continues to keep his own coun-
ell, not taking a single Filipino leader
into his confidence. Wood vetoed a
similar measure last year. The re-
Spouse of the Filipinos was to pass
the present bill as the very first act
Of the newly-installed legislature.
In view of the campaign now going
on in the United States to make it
appear that the Moros do not desire
independence for the Philippines, con
siderable significance is attached to
the fact that the Moro representa-
tives voted in favor of the referen-
dunn measure. The bill was passed
unanimously, thus presenting a united
Filipino front to the foreign enemies
Of independence.
Wood has not given the slightest in
dication of what his eventual action
will be. The supposition is that he is
waiting for advice from Washington.
Even if he should again attempt to
block the efforts of the Filipino con-
gress, it is undoubted that the bill
will be passed over his veto.
What the attitude of the United
States government would then be is
not so certain. Filipino leaders point
out that opposition to the present bill
makes a mock of everything American
politicians have ever said regarding
"self-determination of nations" The
bill does not even provide for self
determination. It merely offers the
Filipino people the opportunity to
say whether they want independence
or not.
Colonel Carmi A. Thompson, per
sonal representative Of President Coo
lidge in the Philippines, has not been
any more communicative than Gen
Wood on the question of the referen.
dunn. AS the editor of the Manila
Times said this morning, 'He pre-
tends not to notice It,"

Violent Hurricane Cuts
Off Southern Florida
from Rest of World

JACKSONVILLE, Fla, July 2S.-
Hurting itself out of the southeastern
seas, near hurricane today had cut
off most of the lower east coast of
Florida from communication with the
outside world and had wreaked dam
age as yet unestimated.
The storm blowing in from the Ba-
hama Islands late yesterday fell with
terrific force on the lower coast cities
from Fort Pierce to just below Miami,
a 120-mile strip of seaboard. Palm
Beach, Lake Worth, Del Ray, Boca
Ration, Fort Lauderdale, Miami Beach,
Coral Gables and Florida City on the
extreme eastern tip of the Florida
peninsula all felt the tropical gales.

I gives some indication Of its extent
and the interest that is taken in it.
There are some co-operatives that
sell RED Star" coffee, for instance
carrying the, Soviet Emblem in the
homes of workers; while other CO.
operatives are purely capitalist enter
prises in the hands and under the
control of capitalists.
An extensive campaign of educa-
ton must be carried on among
those affiliated with the cooperative
movement. This is realized to some
extent by some of the co-operatives
when they support educational activi-
ties, issue publications and other lit
erature, in leafet and pamphlet form.
The DAILY WORKER can also be
made a great factor in the education
of co-operators.
DUT The DAILY WORKER, in order
- to become an educational force
among co-operators, must first win
the confidence and then the energetic
support of the active, vanguard ele
ments in the cooperative movement
This can be done by giving atten-
ton in the columns of The DAILY
WORKER to cooperative activities
To be sure, this has been done to
some extent in the past. Plans for
giving increased attention to this
working class activity have already
been put into force. In every Mon
days issue there appears a special
cooperative Section" which takes
up the news and the aims of the move
ment. This section will be broadened.
1t will win the interest of co-opera-
tors. They will send in their news,
their views, and put down in writing
their hopes for the cooperative move
ment, to make it an effective weapon
in the class struggle.
Thus The DAILY WORKER will
get a foothold in the cooperative
movement. 1t will get large numbers
of co-operators as readers. It will
win financial support from co-opera.

number of workers and farmers ac-
lively interested in the co-operatives
an increased support for The DAILY
WORKER can be found. 1t must be

THE fact that a worker or farmer
l. participates in the activities of
the cooperative movement is an indi-
cation that he is consciously trying
to break the capitalist shackles that
hold him in bondage.
Cooperation spreads in many direc-
tions. 1t conducts stores, builds
houses, runs mines, goes into banking
and insurance, establishes bakeries,
laundries, restaurants, diaries, schools,
bookstores and even enters the UNI
dertaking business. The farmers
have shown an especial interest in
co-operatives, even more so than the
city worker.
Eighty-nine delegates from $50 CO.
operative associations and wholesale
societies in 10 different states took
part in the 1924 congress of the Co.

AMERICAN DOCTRINE

. To use an expression of the day
John R. McQuigg, national COM
mander of the American Legion
"said a mouthful" recently when he
nointed out at a meeting OF the
Virginia state legion at Alexandria,
the dangers which threaten the
United States as the principal world
creditor and the greater dangers we
will face if we permit ourselves to be
misled by misguided pacifists into
neglecting the defensive machinery of
the United States. Commander Nc
Quigg said in part:
"The United States is the richest
prize of the ages, the greatest in
heritance since time began. 1t will
be ours only so long as the world
knows we are ready and prepared to
defend it. World courts and similar
tribunals cannot do away with mans
cupidity, nor quench nations thirst
for power and dominion when that
nation thinks itself strong enough to
win.
"The American Legion has no pa
thence with those well meaning but
misguided persons who, even now,
are making strenuous efforts to palsy
the arm of America and deprive US
of the small defense we now have.
They shut their eyes to the history of
our country, and ignore all experience
of the past. They apparently are will
ling and anxious to jeopardize all we
have gained in the last century and a
half, if only they are permitted to
attempt the creation of all impos-
sible Utopia"
Concluding, he said: "The men who
compose the legion know what war is.
They have seen it at its worst, and
they want no more of it if it can be
honorably avoided. But the legion
recognizes that controversies and
quarrels between nations are almost
certain to arise, and that mere agree
ments not to have wars have been to
a large extent futile"
Here is real sensible American
doctrine. Uncle Sam never has
chip on his shoulder and never will
have until national sentiment changes
tremendously from what it is at pres
ent. But adequate defense is not
militarism but national insurance.
Every great American from George
Washington down has recognized
this fact and America must not be
led from the traditional path by any
misguided sentimentalism which
might easily be fatal to our future
progress.

THE MOTION PICTURE.

Even familiar as most of US are
with the increasing number of moving
picture theatres, the expansion of the
business of making films and the great
attendance on the showings of these
pictures, we are likely to be astound-
ed by the figures given to President
Coolidge by Will H. Hays, general
mentor of the film business. Although
there are now more than 10000 pic
ture theatres in this country, it seems
well-nigh incredible that the average
weekly attendance is 80 millions, Mr..
Hays's estimate for 1925. But even
allowing for some shrinkage, the at
tendance admittedly is enormous, so
enormous as to bring US to serious
thought once more on the tremendous
influence this form of entertainment
is having on the American people, and
the possibility of extending the use
fitness of such mighty agency.
The primary functions of the NOV
ing pictures are to entertain the pub
lie. If the public does not respond
sufficiently, the picture must be shelly
ed. In all are involving large initial
cost and expensive presentation, the
public largely controls the character
of the exhibits. Theatrical producers
we know, do yield unnecessarily some
times to what they believe to be pub
lie taste. The motion picture pro-
Queer, we know, is handicapped, if he
be of somewhat idealistic inclinations,
in gauging his production to the av-
erake intelligence and the average
taste, for the hope is that his picture
may be so popular that it will run the
whole course of picture houses in this
country and reach many of those
abroad.
There still is room, however, for re-
finements in both character and pro-
cess, for more consideration for the
moral effects and instructive values
without compromising the popular ap-
peal. The overwhelming thought is
that if a picture is essentially evil
IN its effects it may do incalculable
