A possibility appeared today that congressional leaders might take part in forthcoming Philippine-American trade negotiations, arrangements for which brought Commonwealth Presi dent Manuel Quezon to Washington. Any agreement that would modify the 10-year independence program of the 1934 Tydings-McDuffle act would require congressional concurrence. Admitting such a plan had been con sidered. State Department officials ex pressed doubt it would be carried out. Members of Congress, they said, have been inclined to avoid negotiations which might commit them in advance to support particular legislation. Representative Asked. Spokesmen for several farm and trade organizations in the United States and some political foes of Quezon in the islands also have asked to be included in the negotiations, but officials indicated they would be re fused. as the projected conference will be limited to Government representa tives. "All interests will have the oppor tunity to be heard eventually.” one official said. "The whole matter is one for the future." Interest of farm organization grows out of the imports of Philippine coco nut oil. sugar and other products, which the Tydings-McDuffie act would restrict until the Independence date of 1946, when full tariffs wculd be imposed. Preferential Arrangement. Quezon said after a talk with Presi dent Roosevelt Friday he hop-d for eventual agreement on “some pref erential arrangement like you have with Cuba.” but he and State De partment officials were unwilling to discuss the mechanics of devising at this time an agreement that would not be effective for nine years. Quezon planned a formal call to day on Vice President Garner, aho, with more than two score Senators and Representatives, witnessed the commonwealth inaugural at Manila November 15, 1935. Announcing in advance of his arri val preparations were made for trade discussions looking to a later general conference, the State Department stressed the talks with Quezon would be "informal and preliminary.” -• Gov.
