MANILA, July 15—The Philippine Legislature, meeting tomorrow for its annual 100-day session, is faced with | necessity of wielding the ax of econ- omy with considerable more ruthless- | ness than the Seventy-second Congress, | and of finding new sources of revenue. | All appropriations must be trimmed —most of them already have been re- | duced under a legislative emergency | provision of last year—and taxes must | be increased if the insular govern- ment’s functions are not to be seriously crippled. Available for 1933 from present taxes | will be an estimated $26,500,000 or less. | For the last several years expenditures | have totaled from $35,000,000 to $40,- 000,000. | Gov. Gen. Theodore Roosevelt dis- | covered soon after his arrival February 29 revenues were decreasing alarmingly. | He has been using his powers as Gov- | ernor General, with the full co-opera- | tion of the Filipino officials, to reduce current expenditures. For weeks he has | been at work on a 1933 budget-balanc- ing program for presentation to the Legisiature. | The decrease in income is greater in | proportion than in the United States, because approximately $5.000,000, a fifth of the revenue in sight, must be set aside for the $75,000,000 bonded debt. The appropriation act for the current | year contained a clause inserted at the | sugestion of Dwight F. Davis, then chief | executive, giving the Governor General power to cut any appropriation by 10 per | cent in case of emergency.
