Feb. 22.—i(U.R)—The national council for prevention of war today sought to block appointment of former Gov. Paul V. McNutt of Indiana as high commissioner of the Philippine Islands. Frederick J. Libby, the council's executive secretary, asked President Roosevelt in a letter to withdraw his nomination of "McNutt. He said McNutt is "definitely not the type of man to represent the United States during this formative period of the Philippine republic." “The peace movement, as you know,” Libby said, “is profoundly disturbed over the influence which Gen. Douglas MacArthur is having in the Philippines, in the direction of their militarization. As high commissioner, Mr. McNutt will apparently intensify that unfortunate tendency. I hope you will withdraw his appointment." I Pay Debts With a LOAN X A More Liberal Service With the return of better business conditions. our organisation has adopted a more liberal loan service.
