$1.00 Now 50 A mwm a A 1.1 By ROBERT S. ALLEN WASHINGTON, D. Philippine President Elpidio Quirino got no definite promises of aid while in Washington, but he did take away with him a pointed hint. It was that the U. S.

would look with favor on the liberation of several hundred imprisoned wartime Filipino guerrillas who fought under American officers. tt The partisans fought valiantly against the Japanese. After the war, they were imprisoned on murder and other charges made, in many cases, by former collaborators now holding high Philippine office. Many of the alleged offenses were "liquidations" ordered by American officers. The imprisoned guerrillas were offered amnesty several years ago on condition they "confessed their crimes." They flatly refused.

One reason was their desire to avoid embarrassing their former American commanders.
