WHEREAS, under Proclamation No. 109, dated December 21, 1948, the period from January 2 to January 31, 1949, has been declared as the period for the National Fund Campaign of the Boy Scouts of the Philippines during which said organization is authorized to conduct a national fund drive for the purpose of raising funds for the attainment of its aims and purposes; and

WHEREAS, in view of the fact that the Boy Scouts Fund Campaign this year had to start immediately after a series of holidays and coincided with a period when many school athletic meets were being held, the campaign committees in Manila and in many provinces were not organized early enough to give the workers ample time for active personal solicitation;

NOW, THEREFORE, I, Elpidio Quirino, President of the Philippines, by virtue of the authority vested in me by law, do hereby extend the National Fund Campaign of the Boy Scouts of the Philippines up to and including February 14, 1949.

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 1st day of February, in the year of our Lord, nineteen hundred and forty-nine, and of the Independence of the Philippines, the third.

ELPIDIO QURINO
President of the Philippines
