vanced by leaps and bounds. Lower
temperatures have doubtless been a
factor in the improved tone of the
trade, meat consumption invariably. in

neighbors are exempt. To the extent of such additional taxes Americans are at a disadvantage in competition with others for business.
 This handicap operates not only upon the interests of American citi- gems in the Philippines. but also to the detriment of American shipping and commerce. whose maintenance and development depend in great part upon the outlet and representation af- forded by Americans established over seas. In the keen competition for the worlds trade our merchants and car riers cannot afford to rely upon alien representatives or to enjoy represent tation by our own citizens only at a cost higher than that borne by com petitors. But the natural tendency of the present policy of taxation is to eliminate Americans established in business abroad or to induce their eN- patriation."

AMERICANS ABROAD
 VOICING PROTESTS
Do Not Want to Pay Income
 Tax at Home Too

Manila, r. l.. Dec. 4.-(Correspond- ence of The Associated Press.)-The board Of directors of tho American chamber of commerce of the Philip pine Islands has adoped resolution which is to be forwarded to tho United States congress, protesting against the application of the fed- craI income tax law to Americans re- siding abroad and paying taxes in the Philippines or foreign countries. The resolution recommends to congress that the revenue act of 1918 be amended as to exempt from taxation the income derived from sources without the United States of non-res- ident citizens.
 The resolution says: Under former acts of congress income taxes were uniformly imposed upon all esdents of the Philippine Islands. Americans.- Filipinos and aliens; and in accord ance with American principles and traditions. such taxes accrues. not to the United States. but to the insular government.
 Under the revenue act of 1918 in- come taxes for the revenues of the United States are imposed upon American citizens residing in the Philippines. but not on .Ff1ipinos and others there residing. although all alike share Inc protection of the Unit ed States and the Filiplnos owe tho same allegiance and enjoy tho same rights ns American citizens. Other nations. as, for example, Great Brit ain. do not tax the local income of their citizens or subjects residing abroad.
 Americans in the Philippines pay the same taxes to the local govern ment as their neighbors and are then required to pay to the United States additional taxes from which their
