Tests for Ateneo Scholarship Set Congressman Fuentebella Concreting Poblaciones of Pili, Baao, Iriga, Nabua, Bato A Year of Continuing Confrontation By: BUBBY P. DACER President, Federation of Provincial Press Clubs of the Philippines (Inaugural address delivered during the 6th Annual Dinner-Induction of the Federation of Provincial Press Clubs of the Philippines at "Bulivagang Plaridel” of the National Press Club January 27. 1968) The President of the Philippines, Ferdinand E. Marcos, in his inaugural address on his induction two years ago this month, called upon the people to make this nation-the Filipino nationgreat again. There was no pretention in that call-there was only a quick sense of history and tradition, an awareness of a degeneration in national morality, a sharp appraisal of the weakening of national strength and enterprise, and a continuing faith in the. tremendous potential of the Filipino for great accomplishments. The last two years have witnessed an administration quick to respond to needed reforms in national policy and passionate in its desire for accomplishments. Anxious to test the response of the people to its programs, this administration, in the off-year elections just past, fielded its candidates on the single and all embracing issue of performance. Now, it seems obvious, that the administration is proceeding in the right direction. The mandate of the Filipino electorate was overwhelming, by electing to the senate all but one Liberal party candidate. The naked fact, however, is ungainly. Two years after the Marcos administration, the Filipino nation is no where on its way to becoming great again. In the cities, employment is scarce and crime is on the increase. In the countrysides, the exodus of manpower is unchecked, the people remain poor, and conditions remain feudal. There is here a broad gap that needs to be bridged. For even as so much in accomplishment is credited to the Marcos administration, so little is felt in (Continued on page 4) Rev.

S. Vessels MANILA—The capability of the Philippine Navy has been greatly increased with the recent acquisition of six vessels from the U.S. Government. The six vessels are the U.S. Navy minesweeper frigate RPS Quezon, the Coast Guard Tender RPS Limisawa and four patrol craft fast baats Nos. 3Q6, 307, 308 and 309. President Marcos accepted the vessels from U.S. Charge d’Affaires James M. Wilson, Jr, during turnover ceremonies at the Philippine Navy headquarters.
