Insular Government Urged
TO Withdraw From Rusincss

lnSular Government Urged
TO Withdraw From Business
Governor Wood strongly believes
that the insular government should
withdraw from business activities as
soan as possible. He says that no gov
eminent in the history Of the world
has ever been able to run business
successfully, since the spirit of com
petition is lacking, management is
bound to be lax because of the practi-
taliy unlimited resources behind it and
policies not commensurate with sound
business judgment adopted as a re-
suit. He cites the recent difficulties
Of the Philippine National Bank, which
have been successfully adjusted only
after much prayer and fasting" An
other government "business" is the
Manila Railroad, which has caused a
continual drain upon the government
finances.
Governor Wood strongly believes
that with the government owning and
operating public utilities it does more
harm than good, since it discourages
private initiative and outside capital
from seeking gilt-edged inves tments in
the islands.
The more and greater opportunities
given to outside capital for investment
the better, he believes. The chief diff
Guilty at present has been that it has
been impossible to stabilize the rate

Orgy of Spending Found
Many Philippine Followers
The orgy of postwar spending that oc-
Cured throughout the world immed-
ately following the armistics found
pines. The years of 1919 and 1920 we're
marked by banner rice. sugar and hemp
crops, the chief exports, and ushered in
an era of tremendously high and inflated
prices. The individual owners of cane
fields instead of receiving the usual
9 or 10 pesos a picul for granulated
centrifugal sugar were asking and get
ting 45 and SO pesos a picul. Instead
OF investing in government bonds or
other gilt-edged securities the country
Tao emulated his city cousin and
bought automobiles and diamonds. 1t
was only natural that this era Of cx-
travagance should be reflected in gov
eminent operation, which was unfor-
tunately encouraged by many banks
that desired to float new bond issues
without sufficient collateral to back
them up,
When the economic pendulum swung
to the other extreme the Philippine
financicrs were caught mapping and
franticaly rushed to cover. The banks
began calling loans without mercy.
Governor Wood assumed his duties
when this condition was at its worst.
His first message to the Philippine
Legislature advocated the closest pos
sible economy in the operation of gov
ernmental affairs. At his suggestion
nearly 900 government employees sud-
denly found themselves jobless. He
demonstrated clearly that the majority
Of the bureau we're not only suffering
from dead weight" in the plethora
of nearly idle clerks, stenographers
and other office supernumeraries, but
were spending in excess of their reve-
nues. To the credit of the Filpinos it
should be stated that as soon as they
were shown how to eliminate unnec-
cessary expense effectually, "even
though it seriously wounded the feel
ings of many stanch political adher-
ents,' they were only too willing to CO.
operate with the Governor General and
adopt sweeping policies of retrench-
ment.
The economies in government expen-
ditures were carried in every depart
ment OF the insular government. Tho
budget as originally prepared called for
an expenditure of 90,575,993 pesos dur
ing the fiscal year of 1922. Before Civ
ing his authorization or presenting it
10 the Legislature for ratification Gov
ernor Wood assisted by the Emergency
Board and the Council of State, re-
duced it to 72,538,593 pesos, or a saving
of 1S,037.340 pesos.
In other words, getting away from
the maze of figures, Governor Wood
demonstrated that by saving 1s,O0O,ooo
pesos (roughly $4,000, ,ooo) the govern
mont could conduct its affairs success
1ully and come out at the end Of the
year with balance Of more than
100000 pesos, which it certainly

above sums are due to the fact that
the proceeds from the irrigation and
port works bonds recently foated have
not been devoted to The purposes spc-
cited to the bondholders, and money
must be obtained to do so; also the
resolution further states that, at is
advisable that certain sums advanced
to the Philippine government by the
United States be reimbursed and that
certain other current obligations Of
the government be discharged.
"It is essential to ths welfare of the
government of TIE Philippines that its
currency system be placed on a firm
basis, and to that end that there shall
now be established and hereafter main
tanned treasury certificate fund,
which shall at all times equal 100 per
cent Of the face amount of outstanding
! treasury certificates in circulation, and
that in addition thereto q gold stand
ard fund. which ut the minimum shall
be not less than Is per cent of all the
outstanding government currency,
whether in coin or treasury certif-
Gates"
! When the measure was presented to
the Legislature it aroused much dis
cusslon, since the opposition pointed
I out that if the borrowing ability Of
the government was stretched beyond
/ its limit it might overtake its foreign
croIit MI ouoiIoH Thu
/ pessimists were defeated, however,
+ since those who advocated its passage
1 showed that money is at present
I easier in the United States and it will
be possible to borrow on a long term
basis.
/ Governor Wood realized that before
such loan could be foated much time
would be consumed and that immediate
steps toward establishing the parity Of
the peso must be undertaken. Accord
ingly he submitted a series Of fnan-
cial bills to the Legislature, all OF
which tended TO help the general eco
nomic situation.
Owing to the fact that much Of the
Legi slature's time was consumed over
the passage of other measures. it be
came necessary for Governor Wood 70
call special session for the consider
alton Of much Of the financial legsla-
tion. All the bills were passed during
the extra session by wide majorites
The economic situation has been great
ly relieved since from the time the bills
were first submitted to the day of their
passage the premium on the peso
dropped from 80 per cent to per cent
Governor Wood expressed himself as
highly gratified over the support given
the measures by the Legislature.
"The splendid support and co-opera-
ton given by both the Senate and
/ House Of Representatives has been
particularly noteworthy. The financial
measures submitted to them by the
| Council of State were many of them
drastic and called for clear thinking
and immediate action. | am deeply
gratfied tLat they passed with such
wide margins, which rebounds to the
credit of the Filipino statesmen"
Keen Private Initiative
Called Best Help to Trade
In addition to instigating legislation
on behalf of the peso, Governor Wood
is firm believer that only by optim-
ism and keen private initia tive can
favorable balance Of trade be estab-
lished. When 25o members of the San
