It. seems Odiamar finds himself between the proverbial “devil and the deep blue sea’’; wherein the inevitable consequence is—“damned if he docs, damned if he does’nt”. For chosinglo be right than popular, and for protecting the greater interest of the greater number, he is being ^lambasted and velified by those who have axes to grind against him. xxx The “uprear” of course would be worse should Odiamar choose the line of the legendary “3 little monkeys”, who could see no evil, hear no evil, and speak no evil. xxx Our witness observes however, that to be a successful politico nowadays, one has to resort only to the simple principle of “you scratch my back, and I’ll scratch yours”. So few are those who prefer to lead a lone fight, than to be dishonest to their own conscience. xxx There is no truth to the rumor that the people of Camarines Sur are soon to reimburse a five thousand-peso expenses incurred in the entertainment of Pres Macapagal during his last visit {here 5 days before the last election. ing tnem abroaa, 11 is buv produce wonders and their ; r. ; . , a matter of gratitude to the going abroad for furttosr stu- thl"^ Lt0»*cf recepieut sad not precisely dies is but a luxury.

Actg. Reg, 8upv HED of the ARC, said that there ie a great need for revitalizing tfa^se existing nutrition councils in order to" facilitate tbe implementation and carrying out of the different programs to be undertaken in the eix provinces of this region. According te her, tbe Philippines are very much behind and deficient in the standard intake of food based from the individual nutritional requirement which is necessary for a healthy body. She put the blamed on the slow acceptance of onr people specially those in the rural areas in following tbe practice of eating "balance diet” which Important to Car Owners and Drivers Acting Land Transportation Commissioner Romeo F. Edu yesterday urged owners of motor vehicles to comply with tbe provision ef law requiring that the certificate of registration ol meter vehicles must be carried at all times in tbe vehicles. Edu!said tbat thousands •f motor vehicle owners and drivers, knowingly •r-.jp$rnknowingly, fail to have_with them the registration certificate whenever their vebiales are on tbe road. Tbe importance of this certificate, be said, is that^lt ia the owDar’s or driver’s jpniy evidence of tbe registration o4 tbe vehicle in accordance with law, It is also a ‘‘eotDpanion document of tbe papers of purchase or acquisation of tbe vehicle, he added. Any bona fide deputy or agent of tbe Land Transpertaiion Comiseion or autho rized police officer, is empowered ty compel an owner or diiver of a motor vehicle to preduee tbe registration certificate for inspection, Edu said.
