f * t h e BICOL STAR ★ May 18, 1968 * "The Star Witness” ★ • By ELIX ABEJERO > Another Legislative Mill Output The last sentence of the first paragraph in this column last week should have read: "This time the less fortunate students who are in some way forced by circumstances to quit schooling in order to earn a living will now have the chance to resume their studies even if some of them have already grown up, and possibly - have already a family of their own.” ★ ★ In its regular session last Tuesday, the Provincial Board considered, at the instance of B/Member Abonal, a petition to the Secretary of Justice requesting among others the designation of municipal Judges as concurrent cadastral judges in their respective municipalities in order to expedite the termination of cadastral cases The idea is to ultimately expedite the issuance of titles so as to enable the small land owners to avail of the credit facilities of Banks, Certain Bonk policies you know frowns upon untitled properties offered as collaterals to loans. ★ if Another Abonal motion considered by the Provincial Board is a request to Pres, Marcos to authorize the PNB to make an allocation of 2 million pesos for Cam. Sur thru the RCA so as to enable that Agency to go on with its palay purchase here at the authorized ceiling price, instead of the fluid price dictated by ollien financiers. ★ ★ The General Appropriation bill has financially hurdled its last obstacles in the Senate. As anticipated, the Liberals were not only outnumbered - they were also out-fought. Also as expected, the 100 mill o i-pesoitem for rural and community development was likewise untouched and incorporated with the final budget inspite of a Roxas, of a Salonga, and of a Padilla, in that chamber. * ★ The most intriguing question now, is as to how far that rural and community development fund could go. Will it really reach all barrios for, and under its intent and purposes as enacted? It being a lump sum appropriation ■ what must be the criteria for its disposition or distribution? The liberals insisted that there must be safeguards - now for what? and why? ★ ★ Of course there is no truth to the rumor that only nacionalista barrio councils will be entitled to the 100 million peso lump sum fund, ★ ★ Likewise, don’t ever believe also the rumor that these rural and community development funds will only be released in the mid-year of 1969. Priority Road Recommendations ...

Philippine Gamble Pays Off (Continued from page 7) Though he has his critics, most Filipinos seem to approve of the start made by President Marcos. Right now, he appears to have a good chance to become the first President of the 22-year-old Republic ever to be reelected when the 1969 elections roll around. If he does get a chance to finish the job he has started, the Philippines shows signs of the possibilities of significant progress. From the Hilltop . . . nies their freedom. In 1954 the French Indo-China Empire was lost to the Ha Chi Minh Viet-Minh forces and even the Americans todate are trying hard to 'negotiate' an honorable peace from across the table confrontation with the Norih Vietnamese in Paris, site of the present cultural and industrial turmoil. In the United States-the Americans are fighting social and racial insurrection and they are concentrating an effective implementation to afford a better chance of livelihood for the American Negros. While Frenchmen are building ‘barricades’ against the government-soldiers numbering 100,000 strong, we here seem unaware of the tide of social necessity and change and what do we have: we are facing multi-facet realities and before long we should be aware of the dangers and the spread of the so-called ‘invisible torces’ of discontent in our midst. NOTICE Ftebella bares . . . Iriga Townsfolk . . (Continued from page. 1) vetoed by Your Excellency for the following reasons: "1. That the town annual income [reportedly 1’303,000 plus] is inadequate to undertake the normal functions and operations of a city government. “2. That additional taxes will be imposed on the residents, 60 per cent of whom are reportedly tax delinquents their properties having been destroyed by the strong typhoon Welming. “3. That about 99 5 per cent of the inhabitants are small real property owners who will have to suffer most of the additional tax burdens which the new city may require. "4. That, contrary to reports, no actual open forums in town and in the barrios had been held by our town officials for the purpose of informing the inhabitants relative to the status of cityhood. "5. That the resolutions passed by the municipal council and the league of barrio councils favoring the city status do not reflect the actual reaction and sentiments of the residents because they are overwhelmingly against the conversion of Iriga into a city. "6. That the members of the municipal council and of the league of barrio councils cannot act as spokesmen for the residents; to represent them for and in their behalf on the question of cityhood inasmuch as said council members were elected to their respective positions on purely party issues, not on the issue of oity status the same had never been raised as an issue by any political party during the preceding elections. "In view of the foregoing, we hereby respectfully submit and appeal to Your Excellency to veto House Bill No. 7270 in the interests of the Iriga residents who are vigorously opposed to the measure. We shall, however, welcome any move to hold a plebiscite for the purpose of conversion which, we believe, is more democratic rather than force upon us the city status via the legislative mill. "Hoping Mr. President that you will extend your utmost consideration on our stand on the matter, and with our highest esteem and regard, we remain.
