ENJOINING THE HOLDING OF A RICE AND CORN PRODUCTION CONTEST FOR A PERIOD OF FOUR YEARS FROM JULY 1, 1962 TO JUNE 30, 1966

WHEREAS, one of the objectives
of the five year integrated socio-economic development program of the present
administration is the increased production of agricultural crops, particularly
rice and corn;

WHEREAS, the increased
production of these two principal staple crops of the Philippines will bring
about a more abundant supply of food, increase the income of our farmers,
improve their standard of living, augment our sources of animal food for
greater livestock production, and foster the growth of other industries;

NOW, THEREFORE, I, Diosdado
Macapagal, President of the Philippines, do hereby enjoin the Rice and Corn
Production Coordinating Council to undertake the holding of a rice and corn
production contest every year, for a period of four years from July 1, 1962, to
June 30, 1966, as a corollary to the present Rice and Corn Production Program.
I urge all government officials and employees, national, provincial, city,
municipal, and barrio officials, especially barrio lieutenants, school
teachers, and civic organizations to cooperate actively in carrying out this
project.

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
28th day of September, in the year of Our Lord, nineteen hundred and sixty-two.

DIOSDADO MACAPAGAL
President of the Philippines
