Pliolo Department On the Eseolla, Manila ILOILO — LEGASPI DAVAO and destroys the other. It is, rather, a contest in which each contending party fully and fairly lays before the court the facts in issue and then, brushing aside as wholly trivial and indecisive all imperfections of form and technicalities of procedure, asks that justice be done upon the merits. Lawsuits, unlike duels, are not to be won by a rapier’s thrust. *** ” Philippine Safety Council By Frank S. Tenny Executive Director THE Board of Directors of the Philippine Safety Council has an­ nounced seven winners of the PSC “Award of Merit”, given for outstanding contributions to safety during the year 1949. The list of awardees follows: 1. San Miguel Brewery — For industrial safety measures built into the new glass factory at Farola and the bottling plant at Polo. 2. The Manila Fire Department — For courageous and intense fire-protection services rendered in spite of shortages of equipment and difficult fire prevention problems. 3. Ayala y Compahia — For creating a model private security force, both for the protection of tenants and to advance public safety. 4. The National Bureau of Investigation — For outstanding service to the police departments of the Philippines by conducting their national police-training schools. 5. Pangasinan Transportation Company — For setting an outstanding record of driving-safety of 1,000,000 kilometers travelled for every accident to one of its buses. 6. Philippine National Red Cross — For outstanding service to the public in water-safety, first-aid, and disaster-services, as well as the creation of its National Committee on Safety Services. 7. Manila Fire Insurance Association — For services to the public far beyond those expected from a commercial entity in the fight for fire prevention and arson detection. These 7 winners were chosen from a list of 12 nominees by the PSC Directorate. A suitable certificate will be presented in the near future to each winner at a ceremony to be held in the winner’s office. In commenting upon the awards, Safety Council Executive Director Tenny said, “We congratulate these seven organizations for leading the fight for safety and for their contribution to the National Safety Move­ ment. In 1948 there were five winners. Last year, 1949, there were seven. Let’s hope that many more organizations will be eligible for this annual safety award for the year 1950”.
