REDUCTIONS ARE
QUITE SWEEPING

MANILA, May THE assembly

Appropriation committees financial
measures The salary reductions are
more sweeping than anticipated, Tho
salary of the governor general is re-
duced 10000 pesos, and practically
every official is reduced in sums
varying from 30 to ~ per cent
The forestry bureau is merged wifh
the lands department and the civil
service has been merged with the
auditing bureau. The American Off
cials are most seriously affected, and
It is believed the commission will re-
iect the majority of the proposals.
The American officials and merchants
are disturbed over the proposals,
which many assert are clearly racial
and designed to make It impossible
for Americans to fill positions in the
civil service. They pronounce the
movement a political play on the pre-
judices of the Filipinos and fear is
expressed that whatever the outcome
may be, 1t will prove difficult in the
future to secure recruits in America
for this branch of the civil service.
