In answer to the Governments claims

during the trial that their client was not

HAWES' FIGHT WON
FOR PHILIPPINES
Missouri Senator Is Happy
as Islands Plan to
Honor Work.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
One of the happiest men in the
Senate is Harry B. Halves, Missouri
Democrat, whose long labors in behalf
of Philippine independence have come
to a successful end.
Behind flower covered desk he was
enthusiastically surrounded by friends
after the Senate had voted to override
President Hoovers veto Of island free
dom, thus enacting the independence
bill
Streets in Philippine Island towns
already have been named for Senator
Hawes and Filipinos here are talking
of erecting monument in the islands
to his name.
Work Dates From 1880.
The largest bridge in the Philippines
was named for Representative William
A. Jones. whose name is on the 1916
bill, which gave the islands their present
form of autonomous government. But
a bigger bridge may be built for Hawes,
F1iptnos said
Hawes' active interest In Philippine
independence dates from 1890, when
he was a member of the Senate Insular
Committee, which at that time was
hearing the pros and cons on the ques-
ton.
In the introduction of the book he
wrote on the Philippine problem the
Senator said his interest first became
aroused by contentious that the Fill
pinos did not want q free nation Of
their own. He went to the islands to
see for himself.
There may have been, therefore, !"
he said, "a bit of knight-errantry in
the work I have given to this subject.
I am willing to confess that there was.
But the more I went into it the more
serious 1t became-serious both for
Americans and Fiipinos-and the more
1t seemed to be challenge to the
best American craftsmanship"
Given Big 0vations.
Senator Hawes was greeted every
where in the Islands during the Sum-
ner Of 1891 as the champion Of Philip
pine liberty. He was criticized at home
and by his countrymen in the Islands
as q troublennaker, grandstander and
lobbyist, but he returned after his tour
thoroughly convinced of the sincerity
Of the Fiipinos in their demands for
independence.
He found sympathetic support from
Senator Cutting, Republican, of New
Mexico, who aided in drafting the new
legislation; Senator Pittman, Democrat,
Of Nevada, who engineered the political
floor fight for the bill; Chairman Bing-
ham Of the Senate Territories Com
nittee; Chairman Hare of the House
Insular Committee, and others Hare
was the author of the bill passed by the
House and merged with the Senate
measure.
Hawes will retire from the Senate in
March.

COUNSEL RESIGNS
, IN STOCK INQUIRY
Seabury-Trained Man Says
Norbeck Interfered With
Work.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, January 1s.-Irving
Ben Cooper, a young investigator
trained in the Samuel Seabury school,
has resigned as counsel to a Senate
inquiry into stock market practices,
but information from Washington to-
day was that the inquiry would pro-
ceed.
In announcing his resignation last
night, Cooper said Senator Peter G..
Norbeck of South Dakota, chairman of
the Investigating Committee, had denied
him free hand" Norbeck, in WASH
ington, declared the senatorial power
could not be delegated.
Norbeck Not Disturbed.
"1'he resignation is not important" !"
Norbeck said. The investigation will
proceed"
Until yesterday Cooper apparently
had been proceeding with preparation
of material for the inquiry, which was
expected to delve deeply into the Kreu-
ger g. Toll and Insult bankruptcies. He
was said also, the New York Times de-
clared, to be seeking information on
large income tax evasions.
In his resignation, Cooper declared
Norbeck, after agreeing to give him a
free hand, had informed him that an
agent of Norbeck's was to be stationed
in Cooper's Office to direct the inquiry.
This agent. Cooper said, was to de-
termine mot only as to matters which
/ was TO present to the committee, but
those which was to refrain from
investigating"
THE investigation which you pro-
pose should make under the circiim-
stances recited above" Cooper said. "I
regard as one not calculated to elicit
the facts which should be disclosed and
refuse to be a party to it."
Norbeck Defends Action.
Senator Norbeck issued this state
ment:
Mr.. Cooper seems to have created a
mystery where in fact there is no mys-
terry. The agent to whom he refers in
his letter Of resignation was John Mar
rinan, who has been on the staff of the
Senate Committee on Banking and
Currency since the stock market inquiry
began and who conducted the recent
investigation into Kreuger & Toll.
Over period of 18 years MIR. Marrinan
has been Washington newspaper man
and he has held responsible positions in
the Federal service.
1T was suggested to Mr.. Cooper that
Mr.. Marrinan serve as contact man
between him and the committee. At
no time was there any discussion with
Mr. Cooper regarding specific cases or
individuals to be investigated.
Says He Was Relieved.
He has been relieved merely be-
cause I, as chairman of the commit
tee, declined to delegate to him powers
of the Senate which I, as a Senator,
would think 1t unsound and dangerous
to delegate to any one. The commit
tee cannot surrender its powers or give
any one authority to hamper the in
vestigation.
BY granting Mr.. Cooper's demands
for unlimited authority, the committee
would have lost control Of the investi-
CATION"
Cooper, 31-year-old lawyer, was one
of Seabury's chief aides in investigations
of New York City. He was credited
with revelations that led to a shake-up
in the vice squad and to the removal
of Sheriff Thomas M. Farley.

Two Shops Settle
in Packing Strike;
Others Stay Closed
Press Strives to Trick
Workers Back by
Fake Reports

PITTSBURGH, Pa, Nov. 21-Tyo
Independent shops and the Meat
Transportation Company signed an
agreement with the Packing House
Workers Industrial Union last night,
which, besides granting other de-
mands, includes a provision for mo
distribution of meat prepared in
striking plants"
The press here is attempting to
stampede the strikers back, printing
news that the strikers are return
ing. They hope in this way to bring
about decentralization.
Officials Of the N,R.A., federal and
local, have been holding secret meet
ings with small groups of drivers. The
Pittsburgh Provision Co. especially is
attempting to break them from the
strike. This was exposed and con-
demned at a meeting of which more
than 200 workers of the plant were
present. They unanimously decided
to stop all strike breaking.
Many workers who were tricked
into scabbing, have been pulled out
OF some of the small jobs and joined
the union. Intensive preparations are
being made to bring out all small
shops of strikebreakers which have
been neglected up till now.
Most likely under the guidance of
the MIRA. officials and some A. F..
of L. leaders. some tools amongst the
strikers are being used to disrupt the
ranks on the Communist" issue.
Lena Davis, representative of the
Communist Party, spoke at a mass
meeting Sunday and this Is being
used as an excuse by these people to
confuse the strikers. This is being
combatted by the strike leadership.
The Communist Party is helping to
mobilize the workers throughout the
city to help win the strike. Some
shops are meeting today to act on
proposals offered by some Of the
large independent farms.
Armour workers in East Liberty de-
cided almost unanimously to continue
the strike and defeat a maneuver of
the company through a secret meet
ing to get group of the strikers
back to work. The same action took
place in the Pittsburgh Provision Co.
and Wilson.
Over 200 police were at Armours
in East Liberty today guarding 30
scabs. Arrests continue but the mill
fancy of the strikers is high, stopping
many meat trucks and stores from
selling scab meat.
The hearing on granting per-
nlanent injunction is still going on.
The court room today was packed
with strikers.
Strikers are in need of relief and
finances to continue the strike and
urge all workers organizations to
rush funds to the General Strike
Committee, 400 East Ohio St., Pitts
burgh, Pa.
