such articles when shipped from the
is accomplished by providing for the
payment of IS per cent. of the duty re-
quired by the Dingley tariff act. The
provision concerning the export duty is
as follows:
THE rates of duty which are re-
quired hereby to be levied, collected
and paid therein upon the expectation
thereof from the Philippine archipelago
as provided by the act of the United
States commerce under such rules and
regulations as the secretary OF the
treasury may prescribe.
Another amendment permits the en-
ployment of foreign vessels in the IN
terror island traffic as well as In the
traffic between the United States and
the islands. Still another amendment
strikes out the House provision au-
thorizing the Withholding of the cost of
collecting Philippine taxes and duties,
thus requiring the gross amount in
stead of the net amount to be be de-
posted in the special Philippine fund.
An administration amendment sug-
gcsted by the treasury department was
added as follows:
Merchandise in bonded warehouses
or otherwise in the custody and control
of the officers of the customs, upon
which duties have been paid, shall be
entitled on shipment to the Philippine
islands within three years from the
date of the original arrival to return
of the duties paid, less 1 per cent. and
merchandise upon which duties have
not been paid may be shipped without
the payment of duties to the Philippine
islands within said period under such
bonds and regulations as may be pre-
scribed by the secretary of the treas
ury.'
Senator Lodge, chairman of the COM
mittee, expressed the opinion after the

After the committee adjourned the
Democratic members of it held con-
ference and decided to present a minor
ity report to the Senate recommending
that so long as the Philippine islands
remain a part of the territory of the
United States free trade be permitted
beween the island and this country and
urging that the islands shall be put up
on an independent footing at as early
a day as possible, when they will sug-
gest that the full Dingley rates be
charged on Philippine imports.
