lof Philippines high commissioner Paul V. McNutt and remove him from consideration for the 1940 presidential nomination. Recent references to "palaces” in the Philippines, Minton asserted. were a jihase of the “smash McNutt” drive. Minton, close political ally of the former Indiana governor, said McNutt had no part of original plans for new governor’s residences in Manila and never expects to live in the new structures since he plans to leave the Philippines p rmanently by mid-summer. McNutt reportedly is considering an intensive tour of “investigation" after leaving Manila to prepare a report for prsident Roosevelt on world conditions. Minton said that plans for the Philippine mansions were drawn by former high commissioner Frank Murphy, now governor of Michigan, and that "concerted efforts are being exerted to put fly specks on McNutt’s reputation." “The plans were all made long before McNutt went to the islands.” he said. "They are not his plans. They mean nothing to him except insofar as he feels the establishments are necessary for American presige in the Philippines “This attack is premeditated and unjust. I see no reason for it other than partisan politics.” Filipino officials who are participating in a Irade conference here,

Apr. 21 — Indiana housing authorities have b. en allotted (3,120,000 for the construction of dwellings for families in low income bracket*, Walter E.
