[edit] 10th Philippine Legislature (1934-1935)

The 10th, and last, Philippine Legislature under the Jones Law was elected on the basis of the Pro and Anti political fight between the supporters of Sergio Osmeña and Manuel Roxas (popularly known as OsRox) who supported (hence the "Pro") the acceptance of the Hare-Hawes-Cutting Act, and the camp led by Senate President Manuel L. Quezon who opposed (hence the "Anti") the law and wanted a new independence act.
