DECLARING THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 27, 1952, AS A SPECIAL PUBLIC HOLIDAY FOR NATIONAL THANKSGIVING.

WHEREAS, Divine Providence having bestowed upon
us untold blessings, for which we are infinitely grateful, it is fitting that a
day be set aside on which to dedicate our noblest thoughts in prayer and
thanksgiving to Almighty God for such bounty;

NOW, THEREFORE, I, ELPIDIO QUIRINO, President of
the Philippines, do hereby declare Thursday, November 27, 1952, as a special
public holiday for national thanksgiving. I call upon all the people to turn
their thoughts and actions on that day towards Almighty God and offer Him a
prayer of thanks for all the blessings He has showered upon us.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand
and caused the seal of the Republic of the Philippines to be affirmed.

Done in the City of Manila, this 18th day of
November, in the year of Our Lord, nineteen hundred and fifty-two, and the
Independence of the Philippines, the seventh.

(SGD.) ELPIDIO QUIRINO
President of the Philippines
