The shock of his death was the Ereater because his friends all expect- | €d him to return here next September. Senator Sergio Osmena, one of the prinzipal leaders of the opposition to Gov. Gen. Wood, was another of those Who issued a statement paying tribute to his late political opponent. “I heard of Gen. Wood's death with profound sorrow,” said Osmena. “We have had our political disagreemnets, but Gen. Wood always tried to do his best and what in his honest opinion was right. He was an indefatigable worker. One evening last year, when he was unwell, I had many opportu- nities to observe how hard and how continuously he worked.” Tribute of Admiral.

THE EVEN WOOD'S SUCCESSOR 10 PROVE PROBLEM Carmi Thompson Mentioned as Next Philippine Governor. R, By the Associated Press. RAPID CITY, S. Dak.. August 8.— The death of Leonard Wood places be- fore President Coolidge another prob lem of finding a man to represent the Government in a country where con ditions are troubled. y Just how soon Mr. Coolidge will name another Governor General of the Philippines is not certain, but it was regarded likely that he would not act before leaving the Black Hills. Who ever the man proves to be, however there scemed to be no reason for e pecting any radical cha in the policy at Manila, because ident Coolidge had been in accord h the administration of Gov. Gen. Wood. May Name Thompson. The confidence placed by the Presi- dent in Carmi A. Thompson when he sent him to the Philippines to make an investigation of conditions there has led to the belief that Mr. Coolidge may choose him as Wood's successor, although it is likely that he will take other names under consideration, in- cluding that of Henry L. Stimson, the President’s special envoy to Nicaragua in the negotiations for peace in that civil war torn country. What effect Gen. Wood's death will have on placing the jurisdiction of Philippine Island affairs under the In- terior Department rather than the War Department remains to be seen. The President favors placing all insu- lar affairs under a civil administration and the report of hi tor, Mr. Thompson, a of the difficulties that beset the W Ington Government at Manila were attributable to the ¢ atmos- Dhere” of Mr. Wood's administration; President Decply Affected. Mr. Coolidge, however, was careful to point out in submitting the Thomp- son report that in selecting men to aid him Mr. Wood was forced to turn to Army officers because of difficulty in obtaining confirmation of native civilian experts who might be better fitted. Apparently. the death of Gen. Wood was a shock to President Coolidge. Shortly after his recent visit here it was said at the Summer White House that the President believed Gen. Wood's indisposition to be temporary and that Mr. Coolidge expected him to returfl to Manila to remain thcu in definitely. To many observers, however, it was plain that the governor general was a Mr. Wood himself, however, insisted that he was in good health, but it seemed to those who had seen him in the full stride of his lifc that it was his indomitable spirit that dictated his own opinion.

FRANKFORT, Germany, August 8 {#).—The German dye trust announces that as a result of negotiations car- ried on at Mannheim and Heidelberg between Director General Bosch and other ieading dye trust officials with Walter Teagle, president of the Stand- ard Oil Co, of New Jersey, an accord has been reached for an intimate working agreement in the United States with regard to both operation and patents of the two organizations and for combining the results of tech- nical experiments on both sides of the Atlantic in the raw oil business.

WOOD TO REST AT ARLINGTON BY SIDE OF COMRADES (Continued_from First Page.) ‘Wood had the interest of the Filipinos at heart. Carmi Thompson, wib went to the Phillippines in 1926 as the personal envoy of President Coolidge, declared in his report that “on the whole Gen. Wood is to be recommended for his administration.” Mr. Thompson, however, urged the breaking of the deadlock in Philippine rule resulting from the split between Gen. Wood and the Legislature and the creation of a “civil rule” and the removal of the “military atmosphere” in the insular executive branch of the government. Defends Army Aides. Gen. Wood in a published articles subsequently defended the appoint- ment of Army officers in his cabinet, declaring that the idea that regular officers were temperamently unfit for civilian duty in peace time was er- roneous. Before becoming chief executive of the islands Gen. Wood investigated conditions there for President Hard- ing and reported against the granting of independence. This report, made public after he became governor gel eral, added fuel to the controversy that marked his administration. Pedro Guevara, resident Philippine commissioner, in'a telegram to Mrs. Wood said: “It is with profound sor- row that I learned of the untimely death of your beloved husband. Please accept my heartiest sympathy.” Commenting on the general, a said that, “despite our pol difterences, 1 sincerely belleve Gen. Wood was an honest man and had in his heart the welfare of the Filipino people.”” BODY TO BE BROUGHT HERE. Gue- Military Detail Will Accompany Re- mains of General.
