Section 127

SEC. 127. If, for any reason, any section or provision of this Act is challenged in a competent court and is held to be unconstitutional or invalid, or if, for any reason, the President of the United States excepts from his approval or the United States Congress repeals or declares invalid, any section or provision of this Act, none of the other sections or provisions thereof shall be affected thereby and such other sections and provisions shall continue to govern as if the section or provision so annulled, disapproved, or repealed had never been incorporated in this Act, and in lieu of the section or provision so annulled, disapproved, or repealed, the provisions of law on the subject thereof in force prior to the approval of this Act shall govern until the Legislature shall otherwise provide in the premises. In case the President of the United States should have any objection to any provision or provisions of this Act these shall not take effect, notwithstanding the approval of this Act by the President, and in the meantime the provisions of law on the subject thereof in force prior to the approval of this Act shall continue to govern instead of the section or provision objected. The Philippine Legislature shall, in view of the objections of the President, take such action as it may see fit at the next regular session held after the action of the President, and whatever action the Legislature may then take shall be submitted to the President, for his final sanction.
