Political Action Will

paign.
Washington, July IS. — Flushed
with successes In the last elections,
the Conference for Progressive Politi
cal Action, founded only a year ago,
is laying plans for a great political
campaign In 1924 which will extend
to every state and every congressional
district in the country, according to
a statement from headquarters here.
"Of course,” the statement said,
“conference workers realize their
campaign in 1922 "as only a skir
mish and preliminary to the greater
contest that they will wage in the
coming presidential year.
"In that year meddlers, muddlers
and mutts who dance as marionettes
to the music of dictatorial corpora
tions "111 lie swept out of congress,
the federal departments and the
White House.”
The conference is headed by Will
iam H. Johnston, president, of the In
ternational Association of Machinists.
Warren S. Stone, grand chlpf of the
Brotherhood of Locomotive En
gineet-s, is treasurer. Men and
women prominent in the so-called
“progressive thought” circles of the
country are included in the member
shin of the national committee.
Throughout the statement strikes
a highly confident note, predicting
“the year 1924 will become mentor
able as the year when every-day
Americans will assert their political
independence and take control of their
own government, wdthout interference
I \ or dictation from, a minority of
i^iss-consclous wealth manipulators.”
Not only will “the people take a
greater responsibility unto themselves
and participate hi all the affairs of
public life so that a real reign of
■ law and order will prevail,” but it
is the plan “that administrative gov
eminent, controlled by special priv
H itege, manipulated under private
^B license for tlie personal profit of the
^B financial and Social 'blocs,' must be
ended for all time in these United
“Kxperiences gained in 1922 have
Ifc convinced the most stupid and the
most bigoted observer that the work
ing people refuse to ha party idolators
or pawns uptm the viitical chess
hoard of money lords, landlords and
industrial lords," the statement de
clared.

P. I. Cabinet in
Row With Wood
Members Resign as Result-of
Clash in Views With U. S.
Governor-General.
Bv International News Seri lee.
Manila, July 1C.—Following almost
continuous conference for the past 48
hours at the home of Manuel Quezon,
president of the senate and Filipino
political leader, me Philippine cabinet,
with the exception of Vice Governor
Eugene A. Gilmore, who is secretary
of public instruction, signed a docu
ment tendering their resignations,
which was submitted to Governor
GeneraV Leonard Wood today.
This marks a crisis in the relation
ship between the governor general and
Filipino governmental participation,
which has been strained some months
and presents a problem that probably
only congress or the president will be
able to solve.
It was understood today that Que
zon and Speaker Roxas of ihe house
will tender their resignations from
the board of control, of which Gov
ernor Wood is the third member, thus
leaving Governor Wood without con
stitutional co-opcrntors in the con
duct of the government.
Since Quezon controls the legisla
lure that body is not expected to co
operate with the governor general.
Mayor Fernandez also resigned to
day. Apparently Senate Leader
Quezon is the moving spirit in the
effort to shear t lie governor general
of 11 :£ powers.
Governor Wood's offices had no
comment to make early today. R
was understood an effort was being
made to patch up tlie differences
existing over ttie reinstatement of Of
ficer Conley, American head of the
gambling squad. Conley was prose
cuted by Secretary of the Interior
Jose Laurel on avhat was declared
to have been a "franteup'’ and when
the prosenftion failed, Governor
Wood asked his reinstatement.
A peculiar development is that the
same lioard which recommended Con
ley's reinstatement now recommends
his discharge. Governor Wood stated
he was puzzled over this change in at
titude.
A strong possibility existed today
that the outward break between the
governor and the cabinet may be
patched up. hut it was conceded that
at the bottom the situation was seri
ous.
