President Marcos Inst week created a trust fund, roughly amounting to P24 million, for asistance to private education. The creation of this special fund, to be drawn from the 28 million dollar Special Fund for war damage, was embodied in the agreement forged earlier, between the Philippines apd the United States on June 11, 19b8, and authorized by the United States Public Law 88-94. Under this law, a special fund of about t*24 million will be set aside to be known as “Fund for Assistance to Private Education.” U. S. Pledges .. . Bonn during the past three days, made his statement November 22 in commenting on the decisions reached by finance ministers and central bank governors of world’s leading monetary nations. One of their decisions was to accord a 2,000-miffion-dollar credit facility to the Bank of France. The fund created for this purpose will be administered by the Private Education Assistance Committee, composed of secretary of education as chairman and with representatives from the National Economic Council, the Catholic Education, of the Philippines, the Association of Christian Schools and Colleges, and the Philippine Association of Colleges and Universities as members. Marcos Ready to Grant Individual Pardon to Huks Impose Control or Die by JUAN G. FRIVALDO President Marcos has indicated that he was ready to grant pardons to Huks on an "individual meritorious cases, but not in favor of granting general amnesty as proposed by some sectors.” The president spoke during hjs regular “Pakinggan Ang Pangulo” radio-tv weekly series, interviewed by a panel of Manila newspapermen and editors on the peace and order situation and the progress of the administration’s Central Luzon development program.

It is about time President Marcos and the Monetary Board impose control or face the danger of revolution. Our country is going to the economic doghouse unless we start immediately protec • ting our own people and our own economy. Foreign manufactured goods that could easily be manufactured in our. country are flooding the Philippines. Machines that could build our small factories are never acquied. That is why we continue buying packaging plants that hardly increase our production. As a result we are languishing into a perennially agricultural country, the proverbial hewers of wood. Our trade balance is continually growing against us. Our overall national progress dips to 2.4% while our population growth soars to 3.2%.f Our per capita income is lower than Japan, Taiwan, Malaysia airiUThailand. That is why the poor in our country is getting poorer, our", rich growing richer. That is why the prices of commodities are rising faster here than in other countries while our labor wages remain stationary, is why our squatters are- mushrooming, seven million of our people are jobless, five million children out orschools. This trend cannot continue for long. A povetty stricken people may lose their patience someday and rise Even affluent France, Gemany and Bahamas are swirling in demonstrations. Hjw much more the poor Asiatic buffetted by uncontrolled population growth. Students in many countries are restive. Philippine youth are not that stupid not to realize what is happening in other countries, nor not^to know the misery of the Filipino people. The tragedy is that this economic plunge to trouble could be easily arrested, if we only would try. The Central Bank, the Monetary Board and Malacanang has all the powers to institute economic reforms without need for additional legislations. For instance, the Central Bank can announce that in two years no more than 50% of the usual dollars would be allowed to buy spare parts.’ You can bet your soul that Filipino and foreign capital will race to put up factories to supply us with spark plugs, generators, axles, etc. Today look at the stupid spectacle of 35 vehicle assemble plants in Manila area. Yes, a small country like ours has 35 assem bly plants. earnings through grants * Here is another example. Malacanang and Central Bank can nr InnnQ TnfjB^culty train-^announce that beginning 1969 only 80% of the usual dollars would ^opment he allowed to, buy powdered milk; in 1970 another cut of ,20% is ■ • applied till we trraduallv eliminate milk imparts. Just you watch big dairy plants come uo in our country. Watch our people pamper their cows like babies. But look at our stupidity today. We throw P450 million to subsidize tobacos which is a vice and notdas centavo to milk. Spare parts and milk are just simple examples of how we can protect a young industry and encourage new ones. Here is another example. Baby hand agricultural tillers ace here to stay. It will eventually replace c t"rabao in our fields. Yet what do we do? We just sit smug and. importing all our hand tillers from Japan when all the small fra'efSfi we need could easily be manufactured in our country. India and Taiwan are now manufacturing their own hand tractors. Everybody knows that the Philippines attained unprecedented industrial progress during the import control days. Factories sprung / up, production increased. Since full decontrol wa? instituted, our economy gradually went .down, Marcos made it (worse. America, Japan, England, Israel applied Jtheir own controlEven Australia impose milk tarnfs on New Zealand, her former daughter. Even the common market is nothing but a tall tarriff wall. But the Philippines lives on the hollow pride of free enterprise on an empty stomach. Masba'e Diocese is notv independent as lono as < VV L concerned.

President Let me repeat, our economic train is running headlong into a crash. That is why the government is forced to resort to police state, to use the PC to repress discontent, to strike fear into our people to appease their economic difficulties.

Luna St., City of’Naga A Part of History Marcos Ready.., Taking a humanitarian view of the Huk problem, the President declared that the problem now existing in Central Luzon is essentially a social problem, caused by conditions of poverty and forced upon the people by the feudal terms of land tenure. As such, he said, it should be solved only by means of social action. The President stressed that these conditions can be changed only by “providing the poor of greater economic independence, better opportunities for education, and modern facilities for protection of their health." Realizing these problems when he took over, the President said, that in June 1966, he launched the Central Luzon Development Program with the immediate goal of accelerating greater f agricultural productivity. Some 26 government agencies are cooperating to achieve the objectives of the program. The President reiterated the policy shift after his conference with Central Luzon provincial and municipal officials and AFP officers, saying that the peace and order in Central Luzon is the primary responsibility of local leaders. It was at the time conference where the Pampanga mayors reported to the President that the reported killings in their province have no relationship with the progress of social action NOTICE Pursuant to Section I, Rule 74 of the Rules of Court, notice is hereby given to all whom it may concern that the Heirs of the late GERVACJA LLAGUNO who died intestate on June 6, 7956 in Lupi, Cam.
