NEW TAXATION IN THE PHILIPPINES.

COMMERCIAL TAX RAISED 200 PER CENT.

The following cablegram, in slightly condensed form," says a Manila content porary, has been forwarded to the Secretary of War

The Philippine Legislature, without previous public knowledge has rail roaded through far-reaching internal revenue amendments, effective January 1st, 1915. The general commercial tax has been raised two hundred per cent, which is regarded as highly destructive to commercial conditions already great"! ly depressed, and impairs existing

contracts,

"All the Manila commercial bodies combined hereby petition President Wilson, through you, to request the Philippine Legislature to suspend the operation of this law and permit a full hearing of the mutter. No objection to equitable taxation exists."

The cablegram was signed by the repre- sentatives of the Filipino Chamber of Commerce, the Chinese Chamber of Com- merce, the Manila Chamber of Commerce, Spanish Chamber of Commerce, the Manila Merchants' Association, and the shipowners. distillers, and tobacco associations,

It epitomizes the desires and the con sensus of opinion of over one hundred prominent merchauts and commercial representatives who assembled in the offices of the Manila Merchants' Association at the call of President Pitt, to protest against the enforcement of the recently amended Revenus Bill. The cablegram was drafted by a committee composed of Rafael Reyes, Antonio Q. Escamilla, Fernando Marinez, Gabriel La O, W. S. Macleod, P. C. McDonald, and Gregoric Araneta.

(including the unsold portion at an estimate of 2. per lb.) the company had made a profit of £60,220, which was increased by the amount brought forward to £71,419. Deducting the interim dividend of 15 per cent. there remained £39,919 to be dealt with. According to present estimates they would have to supplement their capital account by sums placed to reserve out of revenue. The directors believed that £12,500 would more than suffice for that purpose, and they considered that it would be wise to make that provision in one lump sum, and, further, to leave untouched-and, indeed, alightly increase the exceptionally large amount of £11,000 brought forward, con- tenting themselves with a final dividend of 7 per cent, without deduction of income-tax.
