MANILA, December 5.-The eighth
Philippine Independence Commission
sailed for the United States today.

pressed hope the commissioners would
find Washington in a ready disposition
to comprehend the problems of the
country
The commission was warned, how
ever, in a letter sent to Senator Sergio
Osmena by President Manuel L. Quezon
of the insular Senate, that the admin
istration at Washington is not com
mitted to the principle Of Philippine
autonomy, and also that Congress this
session will be busy with grave prob
lens, and may not be able to give at
tention to independence.
Quezon Unable to Sail.

return here in October, did not sail.
Senator Osmena heads the mission.

tae House of Representatives, Repre-
ntative Pedro Sabido, Senator Ru-
perto MontinoIa and Representative
Emiliano Tirona. The latter two are
members Of the Democratic party, the
others of the Nacionalista party.
While the insular Legislature is on
record fayoring immediate and COM
plete independence, the commission
will have free hand and is generally
expected to base its discussions with
administration and congressional leaders
upon Senator Quezon's l0-year au
tonomy proposal.
This is a compromise providing lin
tied free trade with the United States
with limits on Filipino emigration to
America for 10 years, then a plebiscite
in the islands on independence.
Will Be Here Till June.
The commissioners will go to Wash
ington via San Francisco. Senator
Osmena will return in March, but the
others will carry on, planning to at
tend the national political conventions
in June and urge adoption Of Philippine
independence planks.
Secretary of War Patrick J. Hurley,
who recently investigated conditions
here for President Hoover, both eco
nomic and political, will confer with
members of the mission before making
q final report on his inquiry.
Sending of this new mission to the
United States was denounced last night
in a demonstration under auspices of
the Radical party. Senators Quezon
and Osmena and Speaker Roxas were
described as traitors to the cause of
independence"
