MAJ. GEN. WOOD TO
REMAIN AT HIS POST
Washington, D. C., Dec. 8. Maj.
Gen Wood, governor general of the
Phillippine Islands, will remain at his
present post and decline to accept
the offer of the University of Penn
sylvania to be the provost of that
institution, administration officials
said yesterday they had been inform
ed. An officiul announcement to this
effect is expected from the War De
part today.
Previously Gen Wood had made re
quest of the university for an exten
sion of time before assuming the
office of provost in order to see the
completion of the legislative pro
gram he had sponsored in the Phillip-
pines. It was expected that the
Philippine Legislature would enact
certain reoganization proposals soon
after Jan. 1, but it is now understood
that the Legislature and other gov
ernment machinery have failed to
function as was anticipated. Certain
features of the program which Gen
Wood put forward, it is believed, will
be under consideration for some
time before they are finally msde
effective.
In some official quarters it was
indicated that Gen. Wood’s decision
to remain in the Philippines would
be made known officially to the
cabinet members when they meet
