WHEREAS, the period fixed in Proclamation No. 57, dated February 26, 1948, as extended by Proclamation No, 60, dated March 20, 1948, for the active solicitation of voluntary contribution for the United Nations Appeal for Children has been found inadequate; and

WHEREAS, there is need of further extending the said period in order that the campaign may be made still more effective and successful;

NOW, THEREFORE, I, Elpidio Quirino, President of the Philippines, do hereby further extend up to May 15, 1948, the period within which active solicitation of voluntary contribution for the United Nations Appeal for Children may be made.

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 30th day of April, in the year of Our Lord, nineteen hundred and forty-eight, and of the Independence of the Philippines, the second.

ELPIDIO QUIRINO
President of the Philippines
