The '''Naval Appropriations Act For 1922''' was passed by the [[67th United States Congress|67th US Congress]] on July 12, 1921. The bill's purpose was to allocate funds for the [[US Navy]]. The money was for the fiscal year ending June 20, 1922.
==Details==
The act did several things:
:a) Congress declared that the [[income tax]] laws of the [[United States]] also constitute the income tax laws of the [[United States Virgin Islands|Virgin Islands]], with the proceeds from the laws, when they function as Virgin Islands laws, to be paid into the treasury of the Virgin Islands rather than the treasury of the United States;
:b) Post [[World War I]] demobilization relegated District [[Commandant]] duties to a subordinate and secondary status, as it was stipulated "that no part of this appropriation shall be available for the expense of any naval district unless the commandant thereof shall also be the commandant of a navy yard, naval training station, or naval operating base"; and
:c) a new uniform Naval District staff manual was published, to be revised in 1927, but it ended up being the last of its kind. After World War II, each District devised its own staff manual.
==Amendment of 1921 Act==
The Naval Appropriations Act of 1921 was amended by the 70th United States Congressional session prohibiting ordnance or ordnance material
being applied for any other purposes other than the specified provision of the appropriations.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://legisworks.org/congress/70/publaw-782.pdf |title=Naval Appropriation Act of 1921 Amendment ~ P.L. 70-782 |date=February 20, 1929 |series=45 Stat. 1249 ~ House Bill 5491 |publisher=Legis★Works |access-date=May 28, 2018 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20151017152750/http://legisworks.org/congress/70/publaw-782.pdf |archive-date=October 17, 2015 |url-status=dead }}</ref>
