RATES OF FARE FOR PUBLIC VEHICLES

The rates of fare for use of each public carriage shall be computed from the time the same is engaged until dismissed, in accordance with the following schedule:

FIRST CLASS PUBLIC VEHICLES

----------------------------------+-------+--------+--------+-------- |First |First |First |Each |one |one |hour |succeeding |fourth |half | |hour |hour |hour | | ----------------------------------+-------+--------+--------+-------- Motor vehicle of five-passenger | | | | capacity or less. |P 2.00 | P 3.00 | P 5.00 | P 4.50 Motor vehicle of more than | | | | five-passenger capacity. | 2.50 | 4.00 | 7.00 | 6.00 Four-wheeled vehicle, two horses. | .60 | 1.00 | 1.60 | 1.20 Four-wheeled vehicle, one horse. | .40 | .60 | 1.00 | .80 Two-wheeled vehicle, one horse. | .40 | .70 | 1.00 | .80 ----------------------------------+-------+--------+--------+--------

SECOND CLASS PUBLIC VEHICLES

----------------------------------+-------+--------+--------+-------- |First |First |First |Each |one |one |hour |succeeding |fourth |half | |hour |hour |hour | | ----------------------------------+-------+--------+--------+-------- Four-wheeled vehicle, two horses. |P 0.30 |P 0.50 | P 1.50 | P 0.70 Four-wheeled vehicle, one horse. | .20 | .40 | .70 | .60 Two-wheeled vehicle, one horse. | .30 | .40 | .70 | .60 ----------------------------------+-------+--------+--------+--------

Double fare may be charged between one and five o'clock antemeridian. Drivers shall not be compelled to carry passengers beyond the city limits.

In the smaller towns and in the country the hiring of a vehicle, like most commercial transactions, is a matter of bargain. The proper fare depends very largely on the state of the road and the chance of securing a return passenger, and therefore varies very greatly. The customary rate over a frequently traveled route can usually be learned by consulting some disinterested person, preferably an American. In every case the amount to be paid should be settled in advance.

POSTAL, TELEGRAPH, AND CABLE RATES

(a) Rates on mail addressed for delivery in the Philippine Islands: First class, P0.02 for each half ounce or fraction; no limit of weight; post cards, P0.02.

Second class (newspapers and periodicals), when mailed by publishers, P0.02 per pound or fraction; when mailed by others, P0.02 for each four ounces or fraction; no limit of weight.

Third class (printed matter), P0.02 for each two ounces or fraction, except single books weighing more than that amount; limit of weight, four pounds.

Fourth class (merchandise), P0.02 per ounce or fraction; limit of weight, four pounds, except single blank books.

(b) Rates on Mail addressed for delivery in the United States (including Hawaii and Porto Rico), Guam, Tutuila, the Canal Zone, the Shanghai Postal Agency, Canada, Cuba, Mexico, and Panama:

First class, P0.04 for each ounce or fraction; weight limit, four pounds.

(g) Money orders are now issued in the Philippines to be paid in the United States and its possessions, Cuba, Mexico, and most of the British dominions in the Western Hemisphere, at the following rates:

----------------------------------+-----------+-----------+---------------- | | Payable | Payable | | in the | in the | (U.S. | Philippine| other countries Amount of order | currency) | Islands | named above | | (U.S | (U.S | | currency) | currency) ----------------------------------+-----------+-----------+---------------- For orders for sums not exceeding | $2.50 | $0.05 | $0.05 Over $2 and not exceeding | 5.00 | .70 | .07 Over 5 and not exceeding | 10.00 | .10 | .10 Over 10 and not exceeding | 20.00 | .12 | .16 Over 20 and not exceeding | 30.00 | .14 | .24 Over 30 and not exceeding | 40.00 | .17 | .31 Over 40 and not exceeding | 50.00 | .20 | .38 Over 50 and not exceeding | 60.00 | .22 | .45 Over 60 and not exceeding | 75.00 | .27 | .58 Over 75 and not exceeding | 100.00 | .32 | .75 ----------------------------------+-----------+-----------+----------------

Money orders may also be purchased, payable in some thirty-five other foreign countries and dependencies. Information regarding the fees will be furnished by the post-master at any money-order office. No order is issued for a sum greater than one hundred dollars ($100), United States currency.

(h) Under the present customs laws, all goods which are the growth, product, or manufacture of the United States, the Philippine Islands, or of both, or which do not contain foreign materials to the value of more than 20 per cent of their total value, are, with certain exceptions, admitted free of duty when mailed from the Islands to the United States. The only exceptions of importance to travelers are cigars and cigarettes, which are subject to a fine equivalent to the duty, if sent by mail. In order to assure the free entry of other mail shipments, every package worth less than P20 should have its true value and the fact that it comes within the limits just defined, certified to by the sender on the wrapper. Packages whose value is P20 or more require a certificate of origin, which can be issued only by the Collector of Customs at a port of entry. In Manila, however, a customs official is on duty at the central post office at certain hours to issue these documents. The certificate must be pasted in the wrapper or be placed in an envelope to the package. If the shipment is valued at P50 or more, a fee of P2 is charged for the certificate.

(i) Rates for telegrams over the government lines:

For ordinary message, P0.06 per word, including address and signature.

For rush messages, P0.12 per word.

For repeated messages, one-half more than the regular rate.

(j) Rates for cablegrams over the most important private lines from Manila:

To the United States (Continental): Eastern Extension, Australasia, and China Telegraph Company, P3.48 to P3.66 per word, according to locality.
