MANILA, Dec. 26.-More tlmn half
the Americans formerly to tho employ
„f the Philippine government have
t een been retired nlnce July, 1913.
There ar e only a few moro than 1,200
i Amrerlcaas In tho service whereas,!
four years ago, juat beforq, the arrival
of the new Democratic administration,
there were more than 2,600. |
.Meanwhile there haa been a steady j
Increase naturally to Filipino employes
of the government, the list showing I
1,000. . .. I
Tho law which permits Americans or
long service with tho government to
retire with a three-year pension
! ranging from 66 per cent of a year*
salary to the full amount, la largely
responsible for the number of Ameri
can retirements which have Increased I
very largely since the law waa passed. I
Tho past year has seen 400 retirements I
and the prevloua wear saw almost as
many more.
The policy of the Harrison adminis
tration In training Filipinos aa rapid
ly as possible for responsible posts in
tho government service has mado tho
successors of these retired Americans
almost entirely, FUlpIons. This fact,
tegother with the lncreaaing aetttivi-
ties of tho government, duo to the
Increased prosperity la tho islands, Is I
responsible for the big Increase of
Filipinos In tho government service.
