DECLARING THE PERIOD FROM JULY 24 TO 29, 1950, AS INDUSTRIAL PEACE WEEK

WHEREAS, the well-being, peace and prosperity of
the nation demand that its productive forces be husbanded and maintained at the
highest possible level;

Whereas, this can be accompanied only if labor
and capital work harmoniusly together under terms and conditions satisfactory
to both and consistent with the public interest and welfare;

WHEREAS, the ends of democracy and free
enterprise can be served best if labor and capital are allowed to compose their
mutual problems, reach an understanding on their respective rights and
obligations freely and voluntarily and with the least government intervention;
and

Whereas, a labor-management conference designed
to lay the foundations of industrial peace will be held on July 24, 1950, to
last for ten days;

NOW THEREFORE, I, Elpidio Quirino, President of
the Philippines, by virtue of the powers vested in me by law, do hereby declare
the period from July 24 to 29, 1950, as Industrial Peace Week. I call upon all
the chambers of commerce, trade bodies and business organizations, all in­dustrial
and business executives, and all duly organized labor organizations and trade
unions and their leaders to send their representatives to the labor-management
conference to be held beginning July 24, 1950, and to give their full support
and cooperation thereto. I also call upon the government offices and public
officials concerned to lend all the assistance necessary to insure the success
of the conference.

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 6th day of June,
in the year of Our Lord, nineteen hundred and fifty, and of the Independence of
the Philippines, the third.

ELPIDIO QUIRINO
President of the Philippines
