PHILIPPINE BILL
VETO FIGHT FORMS
Sponsors of Liberty Seek
TWo-Thirds Support if
Hoover Kills Measure.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
Sponsors of Philippine independence
were mastering their forces in Congress
today for an effort to override the ex-
pected veto of the measure now before
President Hoover freeing the islands
after a 1O-year period of transition.
Presidential disapproval of the bill
became almost an absolute certainty
yesterday, when Mr.. Hoover turned the
measure over to Secretary of War Hur-
ley for recommendation, and these, the
cabinet officer strongly indicated. would
favor a veto.
Necessary Support Seen.
Friends of the legislation we're con-
fident they could pass the bill by the
necessary two-thirds vote in the House.
but were doubtful about the Senate.
Every test in the House has indicated
far more than the necessary strength
to override a veto, but there was no
such test in sentiment in the Senate
because the measure passed without a
record vote.
Some advocates of Philippine freedom
felt, however, that if they could get
the veto to a vote in the Senate they
might muster the required votes, but
were fearful of a filibuster that would
prevent any action and thus allow the
veto to stand.
Improvement Is Noted.
AS he left the White House with a
copy Of the bill in his pocket, Mr.. Hur-
ley conceded that the measure had been
improved since it left committee a year
ago, but added he had seen nothing
yet" that would alter his opposition
to it,
The bill as placed upon the Presi-
dents desk Tuesday was a compromise
Of Senate and House differences. The
Chief Executive has been silent upon
the present bill, but has given no indi-
cation of any change in his attitude
since discussing the subject publicly
more than year ago, Immediately after
Secretary Hurley's return from Philip
pine inspection tour.
At that time, Mr. Hoover said the
economic independence of the islands
must be absolutely assured before politi-
cal independence could be successful.
He has not spoken since of any in
creased hope for economic independence
there in the immediate future.

OFFICIALS DENY
SOME WILL
ESCAPE
Chiefs to Accept Reduction
With But One Possible
3 Exception Seen

NRA salaries will be clipped
all the way down the line, with
possibly one exception, according
to definite information from NRA
headquarters today, which secuted
reports that the IS per cent cut
projected would not hit officials
receiving $4,000 a year or more.
Officials said that the best
proof that the cut would be IN
elusive was the fact that they
themselves are taking it. Only
one official, it was said, might
be exempted-the same one who
was previously exempted from the
blanket provision that no salary
in excess of $4,000 year should
be paid at the NRA.
Getting around the legal pro-
visions against administrative
promotions is one of the big NRA
problems in imposing the pay
cut, readjusting salaries and ultl-
mately restoring salaries, but 1t
has been done.
Advice has been sought from
legal officers of the Government
whereby the successive steps may
be taken, and everything will be
permissible under present laws,
it is said.
