GARNER IS FLAyED
.0N PHILIPPINE BILL
Attempt to Force Vote on In
dependence eaSure
Brings Protest.

The unexpected discussion Of the
Democratic leadership in the House to
force a vote tomorrow on the Philippine
independence bill, perhaps under sus-
pension Of the rules, with all debate
limited to 40 minutes, brought down
vigorous protest from several quarters
yesterday.
Characterizing Speaker Gamers sud-
den announcement of the program as
"a high-handed procedure" Represent
ative Bacon, Republican, of New York,
charged that it was an obvious move to
jam the bill through the House before
members had an opportunity to study
1t and while many of them were away
from Washington.
Farm Organizations Busy.
Three Of the major farm organiza-
tions. confronted with the prospect Of
immaculate consideration Of the measure,
were busy yesterday circularizing House
members In behalf of two amendments.
Although these organizations, the Farm
Bureau Federation, National Grange
and the Milk Producers Federation,
favor the Hare bill as against the
HaweS- Cutting bill in the Senate, they
insist that the measure must be changed
If 1t Is to benefit agriculture
Decision to take up the Philippine bill
which has been reported by the Insular
Affairs Committee under the chairman
ship OF Representative Hare, Democrat
OF South Carolina, was announced by
the Speaker just before the House ad-
journed after its vote on the revenue
bill and when most of the Represent
atiVes had left the chamber. Speaker
Garner said yesterday he would ask
unanimous consent for immediate con-
sideration Of the Hare bill and If it Is
not obtained he will recognize Chair
man Hare's motion for suspension OF
the rules.
Anxious for Action.
Both political parties for 80 years
have asked for consideration Of Philip
pine independence, he said, "and il
ought to be disposed of. The matter
has been under discussion all over the
country. There has been a unanimous
report from the committee on the Hare
bill and I will take responsibility oi
recognizing a motion to suspend the
rules II unanimous consent agreement

GLASS BILL SOON
MAY Be CLARIFIED
Senate Subcommittee Tues.
day Will Consider Meyer
Suggestions.

Clarihcation of the situation in re-
gard to the Glass banking bill is ex-
pected in Senate Banking and Cur
rency Committee circles this week. The
subcommittee of the Banking Commit
tee, headed by Senator Carter Glass,
Democrat, of Virginia, plans to hold a
meeting Tuesday morning for the pur-
pose of taking up the amendments to
the Glass bill suggested by Eugene
Meyer, governor of the Federal Reserve
Board.
The subcommittee also will consider
the question of going ahead with the
investigation of the conspiracy" of
bankers charged by Senator Glass, who
alleges that bankers were brought here
from different parts of the country and
told what to say against the bill in a
might school in charge of certain
prominent banking heads.
Opposition Is Reported. ,...
Efforts are being made, it was learn
ed yesterday, to have Senator Glass
drop the proposed investigation. Inti-
nations have been conveyed to him
that If the investigation is dropped,
some of the bankers will abandon their
opposition provided the bill is modified

serve Board.
Under the circumstances, 1t would
oGrse 10 surprise in Senate circles if
the proposed inquiry was abandoned.
Notifications Easy.
Senator Glass has expressed the view
that the subcommittee can agree on the
modification of the bill in 2 or 3 hours.
The Virginia Senator is prepared to
accept considerable share of these
notifications, according to his COL
leagues, although he has not publicly
announced such a purpose. If the SUBJ
committee can agree on a modified bill,
a favorable report to the Senate by the
Banking Committee is looked on as
certain.
In spite Of the furore Of opposition
aroused by the bill in some banking
quarters, Senator Glass is hopeful of
legislation. If he can get a favorable
report from the Banking Committee he
win do his utmost to have the bill put
on the Senate program and taken up
for consideration
Chairman Norbeck of the Senate
Banking Committee expects the COM
mittee to give attention in a prelimi-
nary way to the stock market inquiry
the latter part Of next week.
