ing the money so to be paid stated that
the object nf the APPROPRIATION was to
carry out the obligations of the treaty
between the United States and Spain
No mention whatever was made in the
act OF the Philippines. Nor did the
treaty itself declare that $50 100000 was
TO be the price of the islands. So !
throw that item out in anything ! may
say about the cost of the Philippines.
Also throw out the cost of that part
OF the army and of those ships of the
navy which were sent to the islands.
The United States Government had the
ships and 1t had the soldiers. and the
country was at war"
I'm go no further into this aspect Of
the case Gen. Mcintyre continued, Eek
Cept to say that one must not mix up the
war with Spain with the figures bearing
on the cost of the Philippines to the
United States. Up to date Congress has
directly voted $S.451,925 to the Philip
pines. Three millions Of that sum was
for the relief of the Fiipinos whose
crops had failed and whose draft ami
mails had died
"Ofis citing that charge of $3,451 1925
against the Philippines is the sum Of
s4.975,747 taken from the revenue of
the islands and expended in the eXecu-
ton of the military purposes Of the
United States. Accordingly, within n
meaning which | admit is restricted
there is balance in favor Of the Philip
pines of Sl,523s22
Let me repeat Gen Mcintyre went
on to say. that the Government of the
Filipino people is self-sustainiug. The
taxes collected are paying for an the
functions and activities Of the Govern
ment, for the courts the postal service
the preservation Of the forests, the sur

INTERNAL REVENUE
TOLLS SET RECORD

WASHINGTON, D. c., Aug. 31.-The
greatest total of internal revenue re-
ceipts in the history of the govern
ment, with income tax from individ
uals S42000,O00 under the amount
estimated by the trainers of the income
tax law when it was enacted, were re-
corded in the annual report Of the
commissioner of internal revenue to
day. The aggregate receipts during
the fiscal year ended June 80, includ
ing the corporation tax and individual
incomes taxes reached SAILS, 600
against $3SO,OOO,OOO for the previous
year.
Corporations paid in $39,144, 529 and
individuals 41,046,166, a total of $50
190,695.
Corporations paid in $39,144,529 and
individuals $41,O46,166, total of $780,.
19O,695.
At the capitol today it was explain
ed that the worldwide depression on
account of the war in 1914 partly eX-
planned the falling off from the orig
inal estimate and that while the franz
ers of the law figured that there were
at least 100 people in the United
States with incomes of $100O,000, or
more there were only Al having such
incomes
New York, with $10,221 ,2O7 corpora
ton tax revenue, and STAT ,59S from
individuals produced the greatest fed
eral income tax of all the states.
Under the emergency revenue law
enacted last October, the treasury col
lected $52.O69.126.
