WHEREAS, the expansion of the Government’s
development program demands increased national revenues;

WHEREAS, the national revenues can be increased
only by popular endorsement and support of tax measures by tax-conscious
citizens; and

promoted, and extended on a nation-wide scale by a government-citizen-initiated
campaign of tax information and education directed to people in all social
levels;

NOW, THEREFORE, I, Ramon Magsaysay, President of
the Philippines, by virtue of the powers vested in me by law, do hereby
proclaim the first week of January, 1956, as Tax Information Week, and hereby
authorize the League of Women Voters to intensify the tax-education drive for
the period from January to March, 1956.

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

Done in the City of Manila, this 29th day of
November, in the year of Our Lord, nineteen hundred and fifty-five, and of the
