my resignation as chairman of the
allied forces was agreed upon one year
ago, to take effect at this time" his
statement said. But my announce

will not tolerate. This cause Is first
and above any mans personal interest.
II withdraw my resignation and re-
submit 1t, to take effect December l.,

through the present campaign, giving
my maximum support to the fight for
the eighteenth amendment and for the
integrity Of the Constitution"
Docs Not Amplify Stand.
DR.. Polling. a speaker here at the
first convention Of the Allied Youth and
the closing conference of the Allied
Campaigners for Prohibition, did not
amplify the statement and the reason
for his sudden change in plans could
not be determined.
1t was supposed, howevey, that in

of Thursday had something to do with
the withdrawal
LII SCdUcIl6IlL, 1OllOR SAID.
II can see where it would be altogether
feasible to write one plank for both
party platforms, a plank at once loyal
to the Constitution and representative
Government, but let all men know that
beyond such a statement of principle
of procedure, no plank can be at once
wet enough to hold the vets and dry
enough to hold the drys."
"Opening" Is Seen.
Some newspapers saw in this an
Opening" whereby the major political
parties, particularly the Republican
party. might write platform satisfac-
tory both to the wet and dry elements
of the party.
This view was supported. in the
opinion of some observers, by the state
ment of DR.. Polling:
Let the platform recognize an honest
difference of opinion on the eighteenth
amendment. Let the platform bring
forward the constitutional procedure al
ready provided for the expression of the
peoples will"
He then ISSUED challenge to the
opponents of prohibition:
state your alternative. We shall lay
no obstacle in your way to bring it con-
stitutionally to the people. Should you
have the votes to win, you will win-win

The council condemned the system
Of control of Government river and

the more than 100000 professional en-

ticularly so to that faithful and Ell

have heretofore been denied the recog-
milton and advancement to which they
are entitled for under a military
regime only military officers are recog-

PHILIPPINE BILL
Hawes and Cutting Hope
"0bjectionabIe" Features
Will Be Eliminated.
BY the Associated Press

BY the Associated Press.
The House today referred the Philip
pine independence bill passed by the
Senate to a conference committee for
adjustment of differences between that
measure and the one passed by the
House last session.
AS the Hawes-Cutting measure, pro-
viding for independence of the Philip
pines in II years, was prepared for con-
ference. supporters Of Philippine irlde-
pendence at the Capitol were inclined to
regard as too hasty unfavorable reac-
tion in the islands to the bill. Some OF
those who have long advocated freeing
the island possessions were resentful at
the threatened boycott against Ameri-
can products.
Conferees on the Hawes- Cutting bill
are expected to get to work Immediately
to iron out differences between the
House last April granting freedom to
the islands ip- eight years.
Senator HaWes. Democrat, Missouri
co-author of the Senate bill with Sen
ator Cutting. Republican. New Mexico
advised the Filipinoe to wait until the
bill emergeS from conference and is
finally disposed of by Congress before
passing judgment.
The bill is not settled yet" Hawes
said, 1T is going to conference. Two
Of the things We regard as most OBJ
jectionable may be eliminated"
The Missourian referred to the total
exclusion of immigrat ton and the
81 ,000-ton duty-free sugar import
quota voted by the Senate. both pro-
visions being stricter than similar
clauses in the House bill.
The latter provides for an annual I'M
migration quota of 100 and permits
850.000 tons Of sugar to come in each
year without payment Of tariff.
Manuel Roxas. Speaker OF the insular
House and joint chairman Of the In
dependence Mission here. said he was
informed the Senate conferees would
strive for acceptance Of the House i'm
migration and sugar quota provisions in
conference.
Meanwhile. speculation over what
action President Hoover will take when
the bill reaches him continued Re-
publican leaders believed the measure
would be vetoed. They felt it would
have to be rewritten radically to meet
the views of Secretary Stimson, a for
mer Governor General Of the islands,
and Secretary Hurley, who last year
visited the possessions and later reported
to the President that they were not
economically ready to assume self
government.

TRADE DISASTER FEARED.
U. s. Importer Attacks Restrictions
Under Independence Bill.

MANILA. P. l., December 10
Horace B. Pond president of the
Pacific Commercial Co., largest Amer
lean importers in the islands, today
disclosed his personal estimate that
the trade restrictions under the Hawes-
Cutting independence bill passed by
the American Senate Saturday would
reduce Philippine exports from $780,
900 to $25 100000 and imports to
100000 a year. or below the present
annual inSular revenue
1T would be disaster to the economic
life Of the Philippines" said Pond. pre-
dieting the consequences of promulga-
ton of the independence measure. He
denounced the clause that would ex-
clude Filipinos as Asiatics instead Of
permitting them a small quota.
La Vanguardia. leading afternoon
newspaper of Manila, today features

Protest Still Stands
