CREACIÓN DE UN NUEVO MUNICIPIO EN LA PROVINCIA DE SURIGAO El CLERK DE ACTAS, leyendo: BOUSE BILL NO. 1681 ' [Introduced by Repreeent.ative Ortiz) The purpose of the attached bill is to reestablish the former munieipality of Tagana-an whieh has been in existence during the Spanish regime until the year 1906 when its territory was divided between the present municipalities of Surigao and Placer by the annexation of the barrio of San Jose and the sitios of Kabongbongan, Navago and Panalsalan to Surigao, and the barrios of Tagana-an, Talavera, Bamban, and Himamaug to Placer. The interest and welfare of these barrios demand that they be. organized as. in former times into one independent municipality. These barrios are very far from the municipalities of Surigao and Placer and the only means of communication is by sea, which is often times perilous. Due to their distance from either the municipality of Surigao or Placer the said barrios ha.ve neglected and its was rare that the same were given any amount for publie works by the mother municipalities. It is for these reasons that the inhabitants of the above named barrios have always been clamoring for separation from the municipalities of Placer and Surigao and for their organiza¡tion into one independent municipality in order to be able to attend properly to their own aft'airs and interests and 'to do ali the improvements possible within their own territory. The proposed municiPa1ity·of Tagana-an has a population of four thousand peopte and counts with sufficient income :e:~in~l°p:e~:n~uf6eº1!ut:i~i;:ttl;i~!1":~0!~!i~::l b~ird~ with a plaza of one hectare in front, a concrete school building likewise with its corresponding plaza of one hectare, a muniCipal cemetery and a site near the bank of the river especially appropriate for a market, all of which are owned by the barrios of Tagana-an. Approval of this bill is urgently recoinmended. (Sgd.) MONTANO A.

The name proposed is in honor of Don Benito Magno, as a token of gratitude on the part of the inhabitants of the municipality which he hoped established. (Sgd.) CA.MILO ÚSIAS · Senator for the Second District AN ACT PROVIDING FOR THE CHANGE OF THE NAME OF THE BARRIO OF CUTING, IN THE MUNICIPALITY OF POZORRUBIO, PROVINCE OF PANGASINAN, TO DON BENITO, AND FOR OTHER PURPOSES. [Presenta.do por el RepfelleiJtante Moleoeo] Los antiguos pueblos de Antique y Guintas que ahora forman parte de la cabecera de San José, provincia de Antique, como sus arrabales, han estado urgiendo su separación de este óltimo municipio porque la distancia de dichos arrabales a la población de San José, en donde tiene su asiento el gob~erno municipal, es enorme.. Dichos arrabales tienen ingresos suficientes para formar un nuevo municipio . y su organización daría lugar a que se atiendan mejor sus necesidades. En cambio, permaneciendo como tales, apenas reciben la porción suficiente de los fondos municipales para_ promover su adelanto y mejoramiento. El orden público sufre igualmente por 1a falta de vigilancia necesaria de parte de los agentes de autoridad a causa de la gran extensión que ahora comprende el municipio de San José. La separación de dichos arrabales y su organización en un nuevo municipio están recomendadas por la Junta Provincial de Antique. Por estas consideraciones, se presenta el adjunto proyecto de ley.

El nuevo municipio asf creado se denominará General Fullon, y el asiento del gobierno municipal estará en la población del arrabal de Antique. ·
