Filipino Rebel
of 98,Assumles
QuisHng Role

WASHINGTON, Feb. 7-R-
General MacArthur's army
scorned the call of the embitter-
ed old Filipino rebel Emilio
Aguinaldo for immediate sur
render and once more set itself
today against the shock OF new
assault from a gathering jap
anese horde to the north.
The Philippines commander
sent word of the surrender plea
a. he awaited attack by japanese
armies being reinforced from
nine transports which were un-
loading troops yesterday in Lin
gayen Gulf.
During the past few days
American and Filipino troops
have been bombarded by the
Japanese with radio broadcasts
and pamphlets urging the . to
surrender" said a war depart
ment communique last night.
These appeals have occasion
ed considerable amusement for
the troops.
REBEL BROADCASTS
"A radio broadcast addressed
to General Mac Arthur was made
by Emilio Aguinaldo from Ma
Mia. Aguinaldo, who led the
revolution asbinst the United
States in 1899, b apparently
being put forward by the Jap
anese Is y sort Of Philippine
Quisling. He urged immediate
surrender. The appeal was ig-
nored by General Macarthur"
A short. slight, strutting, pock-
marked, 72-year-old reminder OF
turmoil in the islands, at the
turn of the century, Aguinaldo
lived in feudal grandeur amid
bodyguards. servants and family
retainers at his estate near Ma
Mia for 40 years.
For 40 years he kept his SOL
emn oath not to engage in SUBJ
versive activities against tn e
United States or the Philippine
Commonwealth; but M AMI ! q
knew he always nursed the idea
of being head of an independ-
ent state.
He was q silent, solemn figure
at such state occasions as inau-
gurations or sessions of the ter
ritorial legislature, but took lit
tie part in public life.

10 AI|of Sugar
Henderson Names
Rotion Agents

WASHINGTON. Feb. 7-(R-
Fear of what the neighbors
might think or say is expected
to prove q powerful deterrent
to sugar boarding under the
stamp rationing plan which will
start in q few weeks with regis
tration of consumers in their
neighborhood school houses.
The announcement by price
administrators Leon Henderson
that school teachers would be
his agents in handling the appli-
cations of consumers for stamp
books--one for every adult and
child In the country-placed the
sugar rationing plan, like that
for tires and tubes, on q neigh
borhood basis.
That fact, some officials
thought, might be as effective
as the stern but hard-to-enforce
legal penalties which could be
invoked to prevent sugar hoard
ing or bootleg buying.
Each hovseholder's know
ledge that the people next door
might gossip, and that the Cos
sip might reach the ears Of the
local rationing boards which will
supervise the issuance Of stamp
books. might head off any In
clination to hoard sugar, these
officials noted. - y
Far from threatening consum-
ers that tale bearing might take
place, however. Henderson yes
