Excerpt from Internal Taxation in the Philippines The "Internal Revenue Law of Nineteen Hundred and Four, " enacted by the Philippine Commission on July 2, 1904, repealed all of the old Spanish laws, then remaining in force and imposing internal taxes. It substituted in lieu of such taxes a system of internal taxation based largely on the American policy of obtaining a maximum of revenue from the manufacture, sale and consumption of articles of luxurious or optional use and a minimum of revenue from other sources. It has seemed wise to preface this paper with a brief summary of the various Spanish internal taxes obtaining in the past and especially at the time of the American occupation of the Philippine Islands. This will afford opportunity to students of tax problems and tax administration to judge as to the relative merits of the existing tax system, and of that which it replaced, and to form an intelligent opinion as to the necessity for the change.
