governor general. The opponents Of
the bill have urged that Congress post
pone action until the next session in
order to give the Philippine Legislature
an opportunity to act. If no such &C
ton is tai-en by the Legislature before
Congress reconvenes. the principal ar
gument used against passage of the
bill will be eliminated.
The purpose of having the civilian
assistants authorized is to better assist
the Filipino populace in their efforts for
self-betterment. AS Gen. Wood trav-
eled about the islands the people
was constantly sought. This also is true
with the present governor general. The
idea is whole -heartedly to help these
people to better their condition in
every way. so that the whole Filipino
citizenship may become capable of or
derby, Just, progressive, prosperous and
lf-defCnSlve democratic rule.
To avoid the troubles encountered by
Gen. Wood in having his appointments
of such assistants blocked by failure of
the Legislature to confirm them, Fore
ing him to use Army officers as aides,
and thus provoking the complaint by
the Filipino trouble-makers that mill
tary authority was exercised over them.
the KieSS bill provides that of the funds
annually turned over to the Philippine
government resulting from taxes paid
in the United States on Philippine
products. now principally the United
States internal revenue tax on Philip
pine cigars consumed In the United
States, there shall be set aside annual
ly not to exceed $125,000 with which
the governor general may, with the
prior approval of the Secretary of War,
employ necessary advisers and techni-
cal assistants and other emergency en-
ployeS.
II is made clear in the bill that the
fund to be used is United States fund
which is given to the Philippine gov
ernment. The permanent appointees
must be civilians. Provision is made
that temporary service may be secured
without this limitation.
Salaries Provided.
1t was emphasized in the report Of

Reorganization League Sets
Out Plan of Procedure
for Campaign.

"This movement is for the purpose
Of uniting the loyal Republicans of
Marion County for the approaching
campaign into a solid, working or
ganization of simon-pure Repub-
leans under leaders who will recog-
nize no loyalty beyond the duty to
our party"
Aims of the Republican Reorgani-
cation League were thus stated by
George l.. Denny, attorney, at q
meeting Thursday night in the
Board of Trade Bldg.
Misplaced leadership, untrue, to
the basic principles of the Republic
can party, was blamed for disre-
pute into which political corruption
has carried the party in Indiana.
This sentiment was echoed in adj
dresses by j. w. Esterline; Garrett
w. Olds, attorney; Taylor E. Gron-
niger, former city corporation colIn-
sci; William A. Boyce Jr., city clerk:
Ralph K. Kane, attorney; Wilbur
Grant, Negro; Claude M. McElwaine
and Ralph M. Spann, attorney.
Reorganization is not only needed
to replace the party in the hands
Of the people, but an absolute duty,
Denny contended. He said meet
ings will be held soon for organiza-
ton and selection of committees,
following which the movement will
be carried into each ward and pre-
cinct.
The league adopted this platform:
l. The election of precinct COM
mitteemen Of integrity, who will
elect county chairman free from
corrupt and sinister influences and
from secret alliances and affilia-
tons and pledged to conduct to con-
duct the affairs of the Republican
party in Marion County in an
honest, straightforward and open
manner, and by methods recognized
as clean and busineSs-like.
2. Non-political administration of
educational system.
3. No interference with the oper-
alton of the city manager plan.
4. Faithful adherence to the true
principles of the Republicai party.
