We also envision the U_P. at Los Banos assuming a leadership
role in education and research in Southeast Asia, particularly as
applied to integrated rural development. We will continue our
efforts in the education and training of nationals of other
Southeast Asian countries, in cooperation with the SEARCA,
the Food and Agricultural Organization, the International Rice
Research Institute, the Agricultural Development Council, the
U.S. AID, and others. Furthermore, we intend to _expand our
involvement in regional cooperation in terms of more collabora-
tive research and faculty exchange,
Indeed, the U.P. at Los Banos is in a good position to
enhance regional cooperation and mutual assistance in rural
development. It has the experts and facilities. It also has a
long exposure to and experience in such regional undertaking.
Likewise, 'we. could extend more consultative services to the
government on an institution-wide basis. While we have accom-
modated whenever possible government requests for the special
detail of some faculty members. we realize that OUf staff reo
sources are not inexhaustible. But we can sustain and even expand
OUf service functions to the government by adopting what may
be described as the "general staff" approach. This means that
instead of being dispersed to perform operational work. in other
agencies, the bulk of our departmental faculties can be kept
intact to perform the functions of a- general staff 0"[ technical
advisory group co such agencies. By contributing not merely
individuals but a considerable rime of [he faculty as a whole,
the University can realize greater opportunities for service to
the government and the Nation, At the same time, the faculty
could sustain their teaching and research activities for the produc-
tion of highly qualified graduates to man vital POSts in develop-
mental agencies.
Center for Policy a"nd Development Studies.
Beyond programmed special details and general staff work
for the government, we propose the establishment of a Center
for Policy and Development Studies. This Center shall be an
integrating mechanism to mobilize and harness the various
disciplines in the task of helping the policy-makers in problem
analysis and policy formulation, particularly 10 agricultural de-
velopment. Among the functions of this Center will be the
organization of policy conferences, seminars, and workshops where
policy-makers, scientists, and technocrats from the public and
private sectors can interact. Such interaction or dialogues can
greatly help identify relevant areas for policy studies. The policy-
oriented studies will undergo constant feedback and reaction
through further dialogues. Thus, the policy recommendations of
the Center will be the combined product of the knowledge of
the scientists and the practical insights of the decision-makers.
The will, in effect, serve as an information base for
policy-makers, and as a catalyst in the formulation of public
policy.
In sum, the University can and should serve as a major con-
sulting firm of the government, an "intellectual holding company
of the nation."
UPLB
Asia
as a Center for Rural Development in Southeast
+
It should, therefore; improve endespaod its capabilities to help
other Southeast Asian universities; in collaboration with interna-
tional or regional institutions and foreign universities.
Increasing UPLB's Capabilities
Our manifold functions :require the sustained upgrading and
expansion of our manpower capabilities. Our faculty and staff
development will be intensified. Our personnel will be motivated
to achieve their full potential, so -"that .they can contribute their
best to our University. Thus, we will provide them with oppor-
tunities for job enrichment and for optimal use of their talents
and training. We will improve the system of incentives and
rewards. For a more democratic management, we will encourage
faculty, student and employee participation in decision-making,
particularly on matters in which they have both competence and
concern. In brief, we hope to raise individual and group morale,
and strengthen the esprit de corps of the whole University.
We will, at the same time, adopt plans for further institution
building to meet increasing demands and to our unique
institutional strengths. Considering the mutually-reinforcing effects-.
of teaching, research, and extension,. the' proposed Institute on
Forestry Research should be expanded to Included forestry train-
ing, and made a unit of the U.P. at los Banos where it can be
reinforced by the faculties of the College of Forestry and other
colleges and institutes. In view "of the broad range of knowledge
and expertise required for a dynamic and integrated development
of the rural areas, we envision the expansion of our social science
departments and the establishment of new schools or institutes
of human ecology, of economics and management, of develop.
ment communications, and of agricultural engineering,"
For all these, the D.P. at los Banos will need the increasing
supporr of the government, the alumni, the foundations and
other aid-giving
A Vision of Unity
Many a year hence, looking back through the corridors of time;
we shall recall with a deep sense of _satisfaction our University's
active role in building up the New Philippines. We dream that
by then the V.P. at Los Banos ;hall have fully become-a place
of learning where teacher-scholars and students untiringly work :
at transmuting knowledge into wisdom, reshaping the about
the nature of things to the human scale, and orienting it to human
understanding, human need, and. human hope. Having become ..
that, the University shall have fused the sciences and the human-
ities into one universe of discourse. . ".
We dream that by then, science and technology-in our country
shall have been given both a heart and a- soul, for ... no amount
of knowledge in the head can make up lack of feeling in the
heart. On their part, the humanities shall have walked less along
the road of pursuing knowledge for its own sake and. more along
that which sees in the arts a means of achieving rhe good life
for one, and, consequently, for all.
If these shall come to pass, we'ehould then have a culturally
reawakened and fully developed Philippines. May this dream
realized be" the vibrant testimonial to our faith' in ourselves, in
the Filipino, and in all men.

ALLOCATION OF ADDITIONAL RANGE FOR MESSENGER
The Board approved the allocation of an additional range for
Messenger from Range 2 to Ranges 2 dnd 3.
The posicion of messenger which entails, in addition to deliver-
ing papers and messages, knowledge of procedures in processing of
the papers, effective human relations and routine clerical work,
may be classified into two (2) categories, as follows:
a. Internal Messenger- responsible for performing messenger-
ial work within the university.
b. External Messenger - responsible for rendering messengerial
services within and outside the University.
In this connection, Range 3 shall be allocated only to External
Messenger, the performance of which involves greater risk, in
that the incumbent has to travel to and from his work area, allow-
ing himself to be exposed to road accidents and inclement
weather.

workers. As supervisors, they maintain harmon}' among workers
by adjusting errors and complaints. They determine work pro-
cedures of groups of skilled workers such as electricians, plumbers,
carpenters, painters, masons and mechanics. Upgrading of the
class Foreman from Ranges 4 and 5 to Ranges 5 and 6 will
recognize the supervisory functions of the position and the tech-
nical know-how necessary for the successful performance of the
job.
\'lith the upgrading of the class Foreman and considering the
fact that Mechanic, Heavy Equipment Operator and Electrician
are already allocated at Range 4, Assistant Foreman should be
upgraded to Ranges 4 and 5.
The above upgrading of classes will not entail additional funds.
Employees holding these positions have already reached the

COLLECTION OF FEES
The Board approved the increase in the present journal fee
from r5.00 to,P1O.00 per semester in the College of Arts and
Sciences, this new rate to be paid by both 'undergraduate and
graduate studeats beginning the next academic year 1974-1975.
The Board noted that graduate students had been privileged
with free copies in view of their need for the journals; how-
ever, their demand for the journals has increased, thus requir-
ing more copies for publication. The increased journal fee is
minimal considering the prevailing rate of printing.

CONTRACTS AND AGREEMENTS
Mr. President,
I am deeply moved by the honour you have done me by the
conferring of this degree and the generous terms in which your
citation was framed. I regard it, and indeed 1 accept it, not
so much as an honour for me but as an honour for all Australians,
a gracious and imaginative symbol of the friendship between my
country and yours. I may say that this is the first time I have
received an honorary degree. It is a matter of special satisfaction
that it has been bestowed by an Institution as renowned as yours,
a seat of learning with deep roots in the social and cultural
fabric of your nation, a university which for nearly 70 yeals
has contributed to the growth and progress of the Philippines
and produced so many of its gifted leaders and administrators,
The University of the Philippines has long been recognized
as a training ground for the most distinguished and eminent
citizens of your country. The links between the university
and Government of the Philippines are strong and enduring. I
recall that your distinguished Foreign Minister was a former
President of this university. You yourself, Dr. Lopez, as a writer,
as a diplomat, as a public servant of high renown, have added
lustre to this institution. I pay tribute also to your most
eminent graduate, the President of the Republic, a Bachelor of
Laws of the University of the Philippines. I count it an honour
that the Dame of an Australian Prime Minister should be in-
cluded in such company.
Our rwo countries are fortunate in the quality and number of
their universities and in the way they have helped shape and
safeguard the values of our society. In both countries our govern.
menrs give high priority to maintaining standards of university
education and preserving them as essential bastions of civilized
values. University educarion is an ancient tradition in the
Philippines, first country in the whole of the \'{estern Pacific
to have established a university. In Australia we have been ict-
runate that so many Filipino students have studied at universities
in my country. \'(fc shall continue to welcome them and do all
we can to make their stay in Australia a source of satisfaction
and reward for both our countries.
Dr. Lopez, again thank you and the members of }'OUt Coun-
cil for the honour you have done me. I look upon it as are
minder that our two countries, despite differences in history, in
social structure and in the problems confronting us in an un-
certain and dangerous world, share a profound respect for the
enduring values embodied in all universities and for the prin-
ciples of independent inquiry and academic freedom of which
they are the ultimate guardians. J thank you for the warmth of
your citation and its flattering references to my Government's
policy. I assure you that it will remain an inspiration to me
and my Government and a reminder of the common aims and
shared ideals of the peoples of Australia and the Philippines.
SPEECH BY THE AUSTRALIAN PRIME MINISTER, l\fR. E. G. WffiTLAM
AT THE OF THE PffiLIPPINES, MONDAY,
II FEBRUARY 1974
I should at the outset express my appreciation for the
arrangements which permit me to make this add ress to you here-
and through you, I hope to a wider audience throughout the
Philippines. There are many reasons why I value this opporru-
niry. Among others, it gives me the chance (C' repay to your
national university the compliment paid to the Australian Na-
tional University last September by me otd friend, Australian's
old and trusted friend General Romulo, the foreign Secretary.
With his customary forthrightness and verve, he chose that
forum to explain to Australians last September the nature and
purpose of the New Society. I hope that my giving an address
here underlines the respect in which the people of both the.
Philippines and Australia hoJd universities as institutes of higher
learning. I have been pleased to learn that arrangements are
being made for an Australian professor of economics to spend
a full year at the University of the Philippines on seconclment.
I hope this exchange may prove only the beginning of a Ye-
gular rwo.way exchange of staff between our universities. Ana
of course many hundreds of Filipino students have been
to Australian universities under the Colombo Plan. But it es-
pecially pleases me to demonstrate b)' my presence among you
today my conviction about the key role the youth of this
nation and this region have to play in nation- building. It is
an aid cliche that the youth of today are the leaders of tomorrow.
But such is the pace of events today, such is the speed of change,
that the youth of today arc increasingly called upon to provide
leadership, not tomorrow but today, And nowhere is this more
true than in our own region. M}' own Government came to
power a little more than a year ago largely because a ma-
jority of the youth of Australia, for the first nme in a genera-
tion, voted for change-s-for change on issues on which they
themselves had shown leadership. My Government can only
survive as long as we hold the confidence of men and women
under 25.
Both at home and on my travels I have been made constantly
aware of the deep concern which students feel for the processes
of democracy. As President Marcos said last night, the Philip-
pines is in a process of change and transition. 'From this pro-
cess, I look" forward to the recreation of Filipino democracy
34 UP. GAZETTE VOL. V, No.2
embodying the aspirations of the people and leadership of the
Philippines.
It is with all these thoughts in mind that I express my
pleasure in being able to give this address here-the last of
many in the six countries in the region I have visited in the
past two weeks.
The first thing I have to say is simply this: That the
labor Government, which was elected to office in Australia in
December 1972, has a new and distinctive approach to a great
many of the matters of current international importance in
which your country and mine have a common interest. I have
met here, and in all the other countries I have visited, a genuine
understanding of our approach and the reasons behind it.
As far as the Philippines are concerned, General Romulo told
me as long ago as last September in Canberra that he was very
well aware of the change and welcomed it.
But it is not only a matter of undemanding changes which
are made by Governments, by my Government or any GOY-
ernment. In trying better to understand each other as nations,
we should acknowledge that people change as well as Gov-
ernments.
It is unfortunate, but true, that countries often manage
to develop distorted views about each other, sometimes be-
cause people think that policies of 25 years ago still prevail.
There is one serious distortion that still affects the relationship
between our two counrrics-c-and that is a widespread belief
in this country that Australia is a white racist society whose
policies approximate to the apartheid policy practiced in South
Africa, Officers of the Australian Embassy here, from the
Ambassador down, tell me that whenever they give a public
talk about Australia, the first questions asked by the audience
invariably relate to racial issues-and in particular to the laws on
the admission of non-European immigrants to Australia.
Now the fact is that the attitudes of 25 years ago have
changed profoundly, radically. I know that the case of Sergeant
Gamboa. the rejection of whose application to migrate to
Australia in 1947 caused great bitterness, well justified bitter-
ness and contempt here, is still remembered, It's perhaps not so
often recalled that Me. Gamboa has lived in Australia for
o....er 2U years and is, like myself, an Australian grandfather.
More importantly it should be remembered that the Gamboa
case also caused a grcar outcry in Australia, by Australians
who were able to sec and were appalled to see the inhuman
implications of a policy which had been for so long the
orthodoxy of all our major political parties. It is possibly
because my own party, the Australian Labor Party, was in
power at the time when the Gamboa and other similar incidents
occurred, and because my Party had been traditionally, for rea-
sons deep in Australia's social and economic history, the Front-
line defender of the contemptible White Australia Policy 50-
called that the fighr for change was longest within the Labor
Party and yet in the end the victory was most complete within
the Labor Party. But the Australian people as a whole began to
re-think their attitude, and governments and all parties respond-
ed. For instance, the Government of Mr. Harold Holt, who
visited Manila in the year of his tragic death, markedly
liberaliscd Australia's immigration policy in 1966.
I said earlier that O1y Government depended on the support
of Australian youth, The two issues which have attracted the
attention of Australian youth longer than any others are
Australia's immigration policies and the condition of the Aus-
tralian aborigines, And these both came down to a single issue-
racism. The most recent political issue involving mass demonstra-
tions by Australian young men and women was a race issue-the
presence in Australia of racially-selected sporting teams from
South Africa. Among young Australians today there is one
unifying spirit-uncompromising opposition to racism in all its
forms, So there is no doubting the direction in which the deci-
sive political influence of young Australians-c-wbo are of course,
a large and increasing majority of the Australian electorate-
has forced Australian policy. There will be no turning back-
irrespective of which party is elected by the free choice of the
Australian people to provide their Government.
One of my own Government's first acts upon Lcing elected
to office was to change Australia's vote from No to Yes on two
United Nations resolutions on Southern Rhodesia under con-
sideration at that time, At the same time, we announced our
intention to ratify the International Convention Against Racial
Discrimination. \Vle refused to allow racially selected sporting
teams to visit or pass through Australia.
The timing and nature of these actions were deliberate. They
were intended to signal to the world the priority which the
newly-elected Government would give from then on to questions
of race in formulating its policies and were designed to initiate
the visible process of ridding Australia of any racist image. By
giving the aborigines for the first time the same sratus before
the law and the same political, economic and social opportunities
as other Australians, by revising immigration laws and procedures
to eliminate the racial criterion, and by demonstrating our
sympathy with an understanding of the aspirations of the black
Africans, we are trying to make-and we believe we are making-
a positive contribution to the lessening of interracial suspicion,
fear and hostility throughout the world.
On immigration, we have removed the last remaining pieces
of legislation which could be described as discnminatory on racial
grounds, The Australian Minister for Immigration, Mr. Al Grassby,
visited the Philippines last year to explain the changes in our
policies, and I cannot improve on his reply to a question during
his final press conference. When asked about the so-called
"White Australia Policy," he replied: "It is dead-give me a
shovel and I will bury it." And I here acknowledge the response
of the Government of the Philippines to OUI policy, Until last
year Australians were not permitted to settle in the Philippines.
Now that the Philippine Government has removed this discrimi-
nation Australians may apply for residence in the Philippines
on the Same basis as nations of other countries.
I have dealt with this matter first and at some length not
JUSt because I know the interest it arouses in the Philippines.
It is also a good example of the real nature of the process of
change in Australian policy-making. Change there has been, but
not unpredictable, abrupt, or erratic; because, on so many issues,
the process of change had begun under previous governments in
response (0 the wishes of the Australian people and the realities
of our times. And this means that the important changes which
the Australian Government has made are quite irreversrble-c-irre-
spective of the fate of my own adminisrranon. For the great
changes rest upon things which cannot be changed again, cannot
be pur into reverse,
The same is true of the changed attitudes and policies on matters
concerning our relations with our friends, neighbors and allies.
The changes arc based on realities, they are based on a con-
tinuing and developing recognition of genuine national interests
and they arc based on the wishes of the people. I can best illus-
trate this by reference to our relations with the Philippines and
with the United States and the relations of both cur countries
with the other countries of our region,
Less than thirty years ago, the Philippines and Australia were,
with New Zealand, the three original signatories of the United
Nations Charter from this region. Since then our foreign policies
have followed a 'very similar development. In the immediate
postwar period we both ler ourselves depend far too much on
outside powers, especially the United States. We Joined defensive
alliances against what we accepted, quire uncritically, as the
communist monolithic menace which acording to the prevailing
doctrine divided the world between the forces of good and evil.
We did nor think very much of OUf own particular national
interests or work out independent viewpoints of our own. Our
anitudes of mind were too heavily influenced by 1'0 exaggerated
assumption of our own weakness.
Recently, we have both begun to make what rs surely a more
mature approach and a more realistic approach. We have begun
to think more for ourselves and more highly of ourselves. In
particular, we have come to look at our own region differently;
we see it more through our own eyes. We first consider how
the world looks from Manila or from Canberra not from
Washington or London. We question things we have taken for
granted for a generation and we seek our solutions to our own
problems. In the Philippines, President Marcos has referred to
this new spirit as "national self-reliance." It has been called in
Australia the "new nationalism", though it is not a term I use.
Essentially, what we are both saying is that we must stand more
on our own feet. We do in fact pay the President of the United
States the compliment of accepting that the Guam Doctrine
means what it says-s-and we are both adjusting our policies
accordingly.
Yet neither of us see these changes being made at the expense
of old friends, particularly the United States. Although we are
both less dependent on the United States than we are, we both
attach great importance to our alliance with the United States.
We both wish to maintain dose and friendly relations with that
country,
I do not pretend that the Philippines and Australia will always
view international development in the same war, but I believe
that our approach to the world events is closer in spirit and
objective now than it has ever been.
Similarity of view in international affairs can be seen not
only in our approach to the world at large, but also to the
particular problems of the South-East Asian region. Since coming
to office fourteen months ago I have raise the general question
of the need for a wider regional association than any now existing.
President Marcos perceives the same need - the same gap in
our existing opportunities for consultation and co-operation. He
has spoken of the need for what he describes as an Asian Forum.
In our region there is nothing comparable to the Organisation
for African Unity or the Organisation of American States. The
Australian long-term hope is for regional arrangements which,
although they would be less institutionalised and more informal
than the OAU or the GAS, would give all the countries of the
area, irrespective of their ideological differences, a forum in
which to talk informally together and promote greater under-
standing and co-operation. The parallel I most frequently use
of the sort of arrangement I envision is the Commonwealth of
Nations - formerly catted the British Comrnonwealtl-.
Certainly neither President Marcos nor I pretend that there
arc no major obstacles to be overcome in brin",:ing this kind of
idea co fruition.
There arc two outstanding ones: the continuing conflict in
Indo-China and the lack of formal relations between China and
many of the countries in our region. \X'e fuliy recognise that,
for a variety of historical. cultural. political and economic reasons,
many countries with substantial Chinese communnies ate finding
it more difficult than we have done to normalise their relations
. with China. We recognise that the Philippines has a particular
problem in this regard. But we also note that you have begun
to move in the direction of recognition of the People's Republic
of China, and that this objective has been prodarmed publicly by
President Marcos. Australia was able to move very quickly towards
normalisation but our problems were obviously much simpler.
I should also like to say something about :\SEAN. It has
sometimes been suggested that the Australian in-
terest in a new regional organisation could be met at least
partially, by joining the existing ASEAN, or that in putting
forward our thoughts about new arrangements we are. trying
either to undermine or override ASEAN. \XTe arc trying to do
nothing of the sort. On the contrary, we believe that
is a model, a natural regionaljgrouping. All thar we seek is to
develop ways of working with ASEAN as a reg:unai entity. Only
last month an Australian official delegation consulted with the
Secretaries-General of all ASEAN members at {heir meeting in
Bangkok. As a result, there are to be studies at the official level
on areas of Australian co-operation and support which could be
beneficial to ASEAN, and the Secretaries-General of ASEAN
have been invited to confer in Australia in the near future.
We also wholeheartedly support the ASEAN proposals for
a zone of peace, freedom and neutrality in South-East Asia. We
favour co-operation on a regional, as weH as a national, basis in
facing common security problems. This kind of approach - seeking
indigenous solutions to security problems - accords with the
attitudes and aims underlying our own foreign policy.
It follows that -like the Philippines - we in Australia see
the old style approach to regional security probems as exempli.
fied in SEATO as being out of date in many important respects.
General Romulo was among the first to publicly voice strong
criticism of SEATO as it then existed in 1972 at the Council
Meeting in Canberra. There was of course the usual tut-tutting,
but not for the first time General Romulo has survived to see
yesterday's heresy become today's orthodoxy. i might even say
I have shared the same experience both at home and abroad.
It is a source of deep satisfaction to me that many of the criticisms
then made by General Romulo have now been acted upon, and
that the SF.ATO Secretariat has been reorganized and its predom-
inantly military orientation revised. SEATO couic no longer be
accepted as a military pact for the containment or China.
The policies of both our countries are now directed towards
encouraging the militarily and economically dominant powers
to cease disruptive intervention in the region, so as to let social
and political conflicts work themselves out in truly national
solutions. \Y/e in Australia believe that the dramatically improved
relations between the major powers. with the notable exception
of relations between China and the Sevier Union, represent a
fundamental change which will allow a much greater flexibility
in the conduct of foreign affairs. We believe that. in an armos-
phere of detente between great powers, countries such as Australia
and the Philippines will have new opportunities not only to work
our their own independent place in the world, but also to develop
their relations with each other.
And. of course, relations between our two countries arc widen
i ng and will continue to deepen, irrespective d the success or
otherwise of the detente. \Yfe arc getting to know each other
better. Australians in particular by force of (heir history and
their geographical isolation in old days of slow and costly travel,
unfamiliar, even uneasy. with their own neighbourhood - arc
getting to know better the region in which they live. The more
they get to know it, the more they feel at horne in this region;
their region; and this region is their home, for all time.

V.P. GAZETTE VOL. V, NO.2
I might here appropriately inform you that _President Marcoe
and I have been discussing the possibility of concluding a
Cultural Agreement between our two countries. We are agreed
in principle it would be a good thing and hope to be able to
reach agreement on an actual (ext in the very near future. The
process of nations getting to know each other is advanced-
but only partially advanced - when political leaders such as
. myself make official visits.
Private travel helps considerably ---'" and I am very interested
to bear that the number of Australian tourists" corning here has
increased substantially - on the way to doubling - in the last
twelve months or so. Trade and commerce are other areas where
important contacts arc made, "and here again are encouraging
developments between our two countries. But I fed strongly that
if, at the governmental level, we can set up a framework for
developing the kind of contacts that would bf" promoted by a
Cultural Agrcement, we shall be going a great deal' further to-
wards promoting the kind of closer understanding that should
exist between neighbouring countries such as ours.
There is another agreement being negotiated between o:ur two
. countries and to which I wish to refer now. That is an agreement
whereby Australia will enrer into a joint aid project with the
Philippine Government for the construction 'of roads and related
irrigation and agricultural development work in the province of
Zamboanga del Sur. Under the terms of the agreement, a team
of Australian engineers will set up its headquarters ncar the
city of Pagadian and over a five year perind form the nucleus
of a major road construction and rehabilitancn project. The
: cost to the Australian Government will be approximately 20
million pesos a year ($A2 million) for each of the five years.
This is a large scale project by any reckoning and, for that
reason, of considerable importance; but it has an even greater
significance than may first appear, because it will be the first aid
project on such a scale to be concluded between Australia and
the Philippines. \X'e see it as a response to a demonstrated na-
tiona! need in this country, and we hope it will yield substantial
benefits to people in one of the lesser-developed areas of Mindanao.
\'<'e also see it as reflecting our own current approach to fostering
the relationship between our two countries.
My visits to the Philippines always seem to have had some
special personal significance for me. I first caine here at the
end of the \\lar as a member of the Royal Australien Air Force.
Several visits and many years later, it was here in Manila that
J first heard the stunning news about the Tet offensive in Viet-
nam - which, whatever its military significance, had enormous
consequences, nor least in Australia. I came bcre again on my
way back home after my first visit to Peking in July 1971 while
the region was. still reverberating with - one might almost
say recovering from - the news of President Nixon's decision
to go himself to Peking. Visiting for the first time as my coun-
. try's Prime Minister, this must of course De to me the most
significant in the long and continuing story of Iriendship L.
more than friendship, partnership - between the Filipino and
Australian peoples.

EXECUTIVE ORDER
Executive Order No. I I: A University Clearing House for
Theses, Dissertations, and Graduate Sllccialand
Term Papers in the Main Library
In order ro promote and coordinate research and to prevent
cases of plagiarism as ' ....ell as failure to acknowledge sources
of ideas, findings. erc., in the University, it is herebv directed
that:
1. All academic units provide the Main Library and the
College concerned with a copy of the proposed outline
[or the thesis or dissertation immediately after approval
so that adequate bibliographical service can be rendered
to researchers and graduate students. This would also pre-
vent duplication of research except under exceptional con.
dirions where such duplication is considered. valid and
justifiable.
2. Copies of the titles of special papers and major term
papers containing the name of the student, college, etc.
should be submitted to the Main Library and College Ii-
brary concerned through a form to be developed by the
Main Library, which faculty members may distribute to
their students. This would facilitate indexing and, eventual-
ly, the development of a computerized system of storing
and retrieving data.
3. In this connection there is already a continuing union
list of all theses approved in all Philippine universities
It is proposed that each academic unit, offering graduate
courses be provided with at least one copy of this union
list.
4. Heads of units direct that there be inter-unit and intra-
unit communication on research topics not only to prevent
unnecessary duplication, but more importantly, to coordi-
nate research efforts within the University.
These arc preliminary measures toward the establishment of a
national dearing-house for research undertaken by local or for-
eign scholars either through the NSDB or the University of the
Philippines System. or both in collaboration. For this, a dam
bank would be essential. Similar agencies are already operating
in Thailand and Indonesia. Researchers are required to inform
such agencies of the purpose and nature of their studies and. in
the case of foreign researchers, to leave copies of their raw data
and submit a copy of the final report before leaving the coun-
try. Such a system would result in more integrated and coordi-
nared research on the Philippines and would make related lite-
rature more readily accessible to scholars.

Pa)'ment 01 Lidng AlloJcaflce 01
Pursuant to Presidential Decree No, 390, dated February 17.

manenr, temporary, emergency or casual, whose salaries or wages
arc payable out of the general fund, special fund, fiduciary fund

Teaching Duties of Faculty
This Office has received information to the effect that some
faculty members delegate their reaching duties to graduate office
assistants on days when they are unable to report for work. This
practice, if allowed to continue, is bound to affect adversely the
quality of teaching which the University offers to students, It
must therefore be stopped immediately,
Office assistants are hired to do office work, nor reaching.
We would re-emphasize, in this connection, the primacy of
the teaching function among the responsibilities of professors.
This is a function that cannot be rreared lightly.
Deans of all units and chairmen of departments ",re therefore
enjoined to adopt necessary measures to ensure that the teaching
responsibilities of your unit or department are met efficiently
and responsibly.

bastion of fortitude and of hope. Back in peace, but with hunger
stalking the land, it was again Los Banos that won the field.
And now with the problems of the environment besetting our
society, people arc again looking rewards los Banos, and I am
contidcnr that we will not fail them.
I therefore congratulate the planners of the 1974 Vanguard
Convention especially our National Commander General Fabian
Ver , for the non..Jtr of their decision to integrate the ROTC
commenccmenr exercises with our alumni homecoming. I wish
to congratulate (hem too for their choice of a most appropriate
theme, namely, "Self Discipline for Progress." The task is now
mine (0 address rhc members of this rear's graduating classes,
hopefully as a fitting contribution (0 the exercise-a task which
gives me great pleasure indeed.
President Marcos declared Marrial law that fateful Ja): in
September 1972 as an extreme measure to lift the country from
the anarchic situation then obtaining. Floods and Other natural
calamities had devastated the land, leaving masses of our people
hungry, bare, and homeless. The dissidents, with foreign, as well
as local support, had gone all-our ro topple our duly constituted
government. Our schools had become hotbeds of subversive
acriviries. And as 50 on as the people saw the institution of a
New Society in place of the Old, they readily gave of their
wholehearted cooperation.
What we have seen dearly demonstrated since then is the
natural Ion' uf people for order-not ro mention their natural
craving for freedom and dignity. \\lith faith in ourselves as rhe
New Filipinos, and with faith in the national leadership, there
could han' been no reason for us to fail to realize these natural
tendencies. If ever there was a need ro institute Martial law,
ir was only to reinforce these inherent human traits-to provide
rhc environment for the pursuit of our individual and collective
goals. Discipline has never been meant to be imposed from the
outside: there is no other brand of discipline than self-discipline.
As for progress, we have seen how it has come about so easily
once the proper conditions had been set. I do nor see any need
to recount our gains in this direction; the proof of the pudding,
after all, is in the eating,
Yet it is our very successes in the matter of securing self-
discipline and in the matter of making material progress that
should give us real apprehensions, we come to think
of it, the most terrifying problems that face mankind now have
been spawned by previous successes. Our dwindling stocks of
critical resources have been due to previous successes in our
extraction technolog)'. \X'e face a population crisis because of our
successes in medicine, The air we brearhe in the cities is now
polluted because of the success of the automobile industry.
Science has given us the solution to practically all our problems,
and yet we cannot seem to solve them; we even contincc to create
marc. Of COurse, I am speaking here of the universal experience,
but it would be a very risky proposition for us to consider
ourselves smarter than the rest of mankind,
\\le could indeed be smarter-s-and I am here asking you to
be-br recognizing the basic problem and learning from all our
stock of human experience, In all my endeavors, I have made it
both my personal and official policy to focus on the man. \'('hile
it is true that we have to build on our strengths in science end
technology, we should even pay more attention to the human
condition. This focus on man could then be extended to the
society and to Nature. In other words, our preoccupation for
science and technology should be marched by our undemanding
of (he nature of man and his relation with his environment, both
human anJ natural. If we recall now the success-generated prob-
lcms 1 have cited earlier, it is easy (0 see that those derived
problems could have easily been avoided had people taken a
broader view of man and his environment.
I have called this short address, "Beyond Discipline and
Progress," to direct our concerns to the expense which man and
his environment might have sustained in our drive towards ma-
terial progress through self-discipline. In instilling such discipline
for instance, could we be reducing our people into the status of
robots, passive specrarors, or victims? In trying to catch that
dollar inflow, {or instance. could we be depriving future gcn-
crarions their share of the parrimonv of the country, making of
ourselves a nation of waiters, or creating more misery among
our people by raising their level of expectations without the
necessary wherewithal? These questions have, of course, been
formulated in the extreme and are not meant co be answered.
They are to serve only as caveats-things to be guarded against
if our future is to be bright.
I do not think I have to apologize here for taking such a global
end futuristic outlook in my address. There can really be no
more appropriate forum for this kind of talk than before this
batch of youthful. multi-disciplined graduates of the State Uni-
versuy System and of the Reserve Officers Corps program.
The challenges and opportunities you face under the New Society,
know no bounds, especially with our expanded concept of the
Citizen Army. To be sure, no one (an be a real Vanguard,
i n every sense of the term, unless he is endowed with a certain
futurism, And certainly no one among us can have a bigger stake
in [he future than tht' youngest batch of Vanguards.
May I then extend my most sincere congratulations to rhe
members of the graduating ROTC classes and to the staff who saw
them through.

ADMINiSTRATIVE ORDER
Administrath'c Order 174: Establishment of a
Committee for the Formulation of a Five-Year (1975.
1979) Development Program for the University of the
Phtlippines System
The following are constituted into a Committee, with
Dr. Nathaniel B. Tablante as Chairman and Prof. Juan
B. Uy as Vice-Chairman, to formulate a Five-Year (1975-
'19) Development Program for the University of the Phil-
ippines System:
Dean Armando J. Malay, Office of Student Affairs;
Dr. Priscila S. Manalang, Office of the Vice-President
for Academic Affairs; Dr. Joventino D. Soriano, Col-
lege of Arts and Sciences; Dr. Juan R. Francisco, Grad-
uate School; Dr. Arturo A. Gomez, U.P. at Los Banos;
Dr. Felisa D. Fernandez, Office of the President; Prof.
Mar-ina G. Dayrit, University Library; Atty. Galicano J.
Mateo, Budget Office; Director Romeo C. Tomacruz, Of-
fice of Business Enterprises; and Mr. Antonio P. Cruz,
Physical Plant Office.
The Committee is being created in response to the in-
struction of His Excellency, the President of the Phil-
ippines for the submission of such a program as soon as
possible.
Although the program will concentrate on the develop-
ment of the University of the Philippines in Dillman, it
will include the development as well of the regional units
of the University and the continuing development of U.P.
at Los Bafios, which has just completed its own Five-Year
Development Program (1967-1972). Tbis program will
comprehend the construction of an adequate and modern
physical plant, the acquisition of instructional equipment
and facilities, faculty and staff development, the develop-
ment of academic, research and extension programs, stu-
dent services, business enterprises, and fiscal and budget-
ary rnatters,
Since the President's instruction to me implies that the
necessary funding would be made available, it is essential
that all proposals be quantified so that the corresponding
budgetary estimates can be made. Also, a deal
of relevant material is already available In existing stu-
dies and reports recently concluded, the Committee will
avail itself of such material, updating the data where-
ever necessary.
The Committee is requested to its report not
later than April 20, 1974, so that the Ffve-Year Develop-
ment Program requested by the President. can be .prepared
d bmitt d to him not later than Apr-il 30, 1974.

Quoted hereunder for information and guidance is Me-
morandum Circular No. 720 dated 28 March 1974 enjoin-
i11g all organizers and sponsors of governntent seminars
to observe a moratorium on these activities, and instead
concentrate on more action-oriented training.
"MEMORANDUM CIRCULAR NO. 720
"ENJOINING ALL ORGANIZERS AND SPONSORS
OF GOVERNMENT SEMINARS TO OBSERVE A
MORATORIUM ON THESE ACTIVITIES, AND IN-
STEAD CONCENTRATE ON MORE ACTION-
ORIENTED TRAINING.
"It has been noted lately that seminars being conducted
and/or sponsored by government agencies, or by officials
of said agencies, particularly those working outside the
Greater Manila Area, are becoming so frequent that the
attendance in these seminars substantially reduces the
time of the said officials for actual work.
"In view hereof, a moratorium is hereby desired on
such seminars, and instead, all government officials con-
cerned should concentrate on more action-oriented train-
ing. To this end, all seminar workshops should be con-
ducted on a regional level, and any such seminar-work-
shop should state its objectives in more specific and un-
derstanding terms. Moreover, duly recognized authorities
should be properly selected to discuss the proposed topics,
the duration of any seminar-workshop must not exceed
five (5) working days, and must be planned in such a
way that participants therein should still have ample
time for actual work, and at minimum cost on the part of
the Government.
"All concerned should be guided accordingly.
"This Circular takes effect immediately.

Though one cannot take issue with the need for the
transfer, some of the assumptions behind it have been
shown in the Course of the twenty-five years of the Uni-
existence in Dillman, to be fraught with danger.
The Idea of the scholar as necessarily requiring isolation
very quickly developed among some university constituents
an isolationist indifference to what was happening to the
rest of the country. This indifference-and the pride that
some sudents as well as faculty members took in it-gave
birth to the view of the University as somehow apart
the of Philippine society, a view expressed aptly
In the claim that the University was "a republic within
the Republic."
In this sense, therefore, the transfer enhanced the
traditional view of the intellectual and scholar as some-
how apart from the rest of mankind. The historian study-
ing the University would perhaps note that the University
was, in more than a physical sense, isolated indeed from
the rest of the country during the years immediately
following its transfer, its constituents persisting in the
view that the "outside world" need not intrude into the
University's concerns: a view which found expression
not only in its academic life hut also in the kind of writing
that was favored in the University, the kind of cheerful,
unsocial, if not anti-social attitude that was, to outsiders,
the hallmark of the D.P. student as well as of the D.P.
professor.
This illusion was, however, rudely shattered by the
intrusion of the outside world into the University, in the
inevitable backlash of the Huk rebellion that made itself
felt in the University in the mid-fifties and early sixties
in the form of members of Congress taking a dim view of
those academic activities which lay well within the pro-
tection of the constitutional guarantee of academic free-
dom, but which seemed to indicate dangerous tendencies
among some of the faculty and students. The University
was part of the larger society j it was not a republic
within tho Republic.
Though we tend to view the events of these years as
ones to the University, it seems to me that they
were. t?e contrary. The University emerged from
the isolationism of its early Dillman years into an
awareness of the world, so that coincident to the rise
the student movement by the second half of the 60'03,
It was felt t,hat the parochialism of these early years was,
far. from being to the benefit of the university, dangerous
to It.
Dillman is no longer the isolated suburb of Manila
that it used to be. An entire city has grown around it.
Manila is a mere thirty minutes away; downtown Quezon
City a scant ten. Together with this shattering of its
physical isolation has come an awareness of its role
in the national society and of its responsibility to the
people. It is a development that we can only celebrate,
a fact we should regard with hope. In times that are
admittedly somewhat perilous for the intellectual for
"hom the University is home, the University has be-
come even more aware of the value of its mission: to seek
cut the truth which is the key to individual and social
liberation. It is a mission which the University has yet
to accomplish, and a mission both difficult as well. as
perilous to undertake. But it is, in the final analysis,
the only commitment that a University such as ours can
have and the only one that justifies its existence.
In the twenty-five years since the University's transfer
to Dillman, it has gone from isolationism to commitment,
from indifference to concern, from alienation to complete
integration with the hopes and aspirations, the dreams
and the struggles of our people.

Revised Rulee for the J.M. Feliciano Scholarship Awards
The Jose Ma. Feliciano Scholarship Awards are given
to needy but deserving students who are B.S. in Geology
and/or B.S. (Geography) majors who have completed
at least twelve (12) units of course work in their major
fields and/or in the third year.
A student majoring in Geology or Geography to be
considered for an award must have passed all his courses
in the semester immediately preceding the giving of the
award. The academic load must not be less than fifteen
(15) units and the weighted average not less than 2.5.
In addition, the student must be of good moral character
and integrity.
Each award is given for one semester at a time without
prejudice to renewal provided the conditions earlier set
forth are met. The amount to be given varies but at all
times it will be adequate to cover tuition fees for a
semester and a little extra for school supplies.
Select-ion of the awardees rests on an appropriate com-
mittee elected from among the faculty members of the
Department. Two committees are generally set up:
one for the geology section and the other for the gee-
graphy section.
The Board accepted a grant of P682,200.00 from the
National Manpower and Youth Council (NMYC) to enable
the Institute of Social Work and Community Develop-
ment to undertake a study on the program and service
for out-of-school youths in the country and to develop
a vocational preparation program for them. In addition
to preparing a reesarch design and evolving a program
for this study, the University "ill provide the research
facilities, and recruit and appoint the technical staff.
The Board approved the revision of Rule 2 c (2) of the
rules governing the U.P.-Government Scholarships, as fol-
lows:
Rule 2 c (2)-
"They must be financially deserving. A student shall
be considered deserving if [his family's] the annual
income [or if his parents are dead, the annual gross
income and net taxable income of persons required by
law to give support] of his parentsjpersons required by
la.w to give support shall not exceed (a) P1S,OOO.OO,
U1'088; (b) ['S,OOO.OO, net taxable [respectively]. In case
an applicant has a brother/sister applying for, or en-
joying the scholarship, the annual gross income of his
parents/persons required by law to give support shall
not exceed P5,OOO.00. An affidavit to this effect, sub-
scribed and sworn to before any appropriate officer
of the Bureau of Internal Revenue, must be submitted.
A copy of the income tax return filed by such father or
person for the year immediately preceding the award
of scholarship, duly attested to by the appropriate
officer of the Bureau of Internal Revenue, shall be
attached to the affidavit."
. (Words in brackets to be deleted; those in itaiics to be
added.)
The Board confirmed acceptance of a subsidy from the
PhiHppine Coconut Authority (PHILCOA) in the amount
of P20,OOO.OO to supplement the initial grant given to the
College of Home Economics for the research project
"Determination of Expanded Commercial Application of
Coconut By-Products." In this connection, the Board ap-
proved the provisions and conditions of the subsidy
scheme, as outlined in the Memorandum of the Assistant
Administrator for Operations of PHILCOA.
The Board confirmed acceptance of the following grants
in the University of the Philippines at Los Banos:
a. From the Centro Internacional de Me;oramiento de
Maizy Trigo (CIMMYT)-a grant of US $28,000.00
for the first two years of the research project
entitled "High Quality Protein Corn Integrated
Program for the Philippines." An initial amount to-
ward this grant ($20,000.00) has been remitted by
the CIMMYT under FNCB Check No. 4367 dated
13 June 1974.
The Committee on Contracts with Foreign Agen-
cies recommended approval of the research project
subject to the usual inclusion in the budget of 15%
for overhead expenses.
b. From the Philippine Sugar Institute (PHILSUGIN).
-grants of P7,130.00 and P8,750.00 as thesis support
for Mr. Artemio Galvez and Mrs. Nena Divinagracia,
respectively, PHILSUGIN graduate scholars. These
amounts have been remitted under PNB Check Nos.
98902 and 98003, both dated 27 June 1974.
The Board confirmed acceptance of a grant to the
College of Agriculture, University of the Philippines at
Los Banos from the Philippine Sugar Institute (PHIL
SUGIN) in the amount of P232,200.00, as a continuing
support for the Sugar Technology Course during the
fiscal year 1974-1975 (the amount has been remitted to
UPLB under PNB Check No. 99136 dated 9 July 1974).
PROFESSORIAL CHAIRS
The Board approved the appointment of Obdulia F.
Sison as Professor of Agricultural Education (profes-
sorial chair), College of Agriculture, University of the
Philippines at Los Bafios, effective July 1, 1974 until
June 30, 1975.
The Board also approved the creation of four (4) addi-
tional professorial chairs in Philosophy, Linguistics, Hu-
manities, and Sociology, at the College of Arts and
Sciences, effective July 1, 1974.
In this connection, the Board approved the appoint-
ment to the chairs for a period of three (3) years, from
July 1, 1974 to June 30, 1977, of the following:
1. Rodolfo A. Bulatao, Jr. as Assistant Professor of
Sociology;
2. Armando F. Bonifacio as Professor of Philosophy;
3. Ernesto A. Constantino as Professor of Linguistics;
and
4. Ricaredo D. Demetillo as Associate Professor of Hu-
manities.
The Board likewise approved the appointment of the
following faculty members of the Graduate School, Uni-
versity of the Philippines at Los Banos, to the SEARCA
professorial chairs (created under a Memorandum of
Agreement between U.P. and SEARCA which was con-
firmed by the Board of Regents on 30 May 1974), for a
period of one (1) year, effective June 1, 1974 without
prejudice to renewal for another year,
1. Santiago N. Tilo as SEARCA Assistant Professor
of Soil Science;
demic community used to making fine distinctions and
asking many questions. It remains to be seen whether our
policies in this regard will finally reflect the will and
aspirations of our people. Meanwhile, we can perhaps
agree that the immediate tasks of instruction, research
and community service must be accomplished as efficiently
as possible with a minimum of indecision, confusion and
waste.
In an organization that is OTIe of the largest and
structurally the most complex in the nation, and which
is furthermore radically different from any other, it is
imperative to remember that we have the capability and
opportunity to influence not only the intellectual life of
the nation but the very policies that will determine the
shape of our society. Given the University's incalculable
potential for good or evil, it becomes equally imperative,
first, that the goals of this institution be carefully iden-
tified and defined and, secondly, that we have the skill
and the will to pursue and realize these goals as efficiently
as possible.
Now, it is true that in both these domains, the Univer-
sity cannot be said to be completely autonomous. This
being a tax-supported University.. the State does claim the
right and authority to determine its purposes and objec-
tives and to set down the basic rules by which these are
to be achieved. This prerogative is, in present circum-
stances, being exercised more energetically than at any
time in the past. Yet, so strongly entrenched has been
the principle and tradition of U.P. autonomy that even
under the regime of martial law, \.... e in the University
arc not precluded from indicating our views and taking
a stand as regards both the teleology and the mechanism
of this vast, little universe that is the University of the
Philippines.
Indeed, we have already held various seminars and
conferences on the purposes and goals of the University.
At this conference, however, we are going to deal with
matters less philosophical and esoteric, more pragmatic
and practical, that is with the day-to-day problems of
running the University and administering its affairs.
This, in short, is a conference of the management of
University.
The U.P. has the largest pool of experts in almost any
field that you can name. Push a button, as on a Vendo
machine, and you can get a consultant or several con-
sultants on any subject you want. These experts: always
available on loan, full-time or part-time, preferably with
an interesting emolument euphemistically called an hon-
orarium, are forever being asked to tell or show other
government agencies or private enterprises how to run
their business and manage their affairs more efficiently
and profitably. I would guess that more than half our
University units-the Colleges of Business Administra-
tion and Public Administration, the School of Economics,
the Institute of Planning, the Local Government Center,
the Philippine Executive Academy, the Law Center, to
name only a few-as well as a good half of our faculty
members, arc involved in this type of consultancy. Indeed
I am beginning to suspect that we have been so busy
telling other people how to run their business that we
have had no time to show ourselves how to do likewise.
Like sugar or bananas, we have been exporting so much
expertise on management that we seem to have very little
left for home consumption.
(Parenthetically, I might add, that this is true in other
fields as well. For instance, we have in the College of Law
and the Law Center some of the best lawyers in the land.
yet we cannot get enough legal help to defend the
sity against the writs of injunctions periodically issued
by Judge Jose Campos. And while the Law Center is
codifying all the laws of the land, it cannot even help us
to codify our own.)
So, this week-end, in this salubrious climate and relaxed
atmosphere of Baguio, we are going at long last to have
a good look at the loose-jointed and somewhat creaky
machinery of the U.P. System. Let's compare notes,
study the text of relevant laws and regulations, let's listen
to the experts and learn from them. But, above all, let's
learn from one another. It goes without saying that a
certain humility is an essential prerequisite for this under-
taking, a willingness to learn, even perhaps a readiness
to admit shortcomings or errors. After all, nobody is a
horn administrator or manager; this is an acquired skill.
I imagine that most of our discussions wiII be devoted
to the art and science of running the University and its
various units according to the book. I would suggest that,
having done this, we try to go beyond the rules in the
book and consider how the University and its units can
be administered more efficiently and enabled to perform
their three-fold task of teaching, research and community
service, by changing the rules if necessary. You would
agree that this is a method much to be preferred to the
sometimes unavoidable but always hazardous remedy of
bending the rules slightly without breaking them, or
cunningly going around the regulations in the hope that
the auditor is not looking or is looking the other way.
You and I are partners in the business of running the
University. The daily chores involved are often so tiresome
and time-consuming that I sometimes dream of some kind
of super-computer that can be installed in Quezon Hall
with buttons, that I could push to turn on the University
System so that it would run by itself like an automated
factory, and we could playa round of golf every day.
But one thing I have learned in the last six years is that
there is nothing in the world more utterly unlike a factory
or a machine than this University. There are 50-odd deans
and directors in the U.P., and so we have fifty styles of
management and administration in the System, not to
mention another half-dozen styles right in Quezon Hall
l tself-c-each of them uniquely personal and individual and
all of them fascinatingly different from one another.
It is however the purpose of this Conference to indicate
how we can conduct the business of the University more
efficiently with better teamwork, like the D.P. football team
under a good coach or make more harmonious music to-
gether, like the D.P. Concert ChOlUS under the direction of
Prof. Rey Pagulo. For my part, I promise to study just as
hard as you. For nobody is a born coach or conductor,
either. These skills are also acquired.

PORTRAIT OF AN ACADEMIC
ADMINISTRATOR
By ABELARDO G. SAl\'IONTE
Chancellor, V.P. at LOB BaiLos
Development Conference of U.P. Deans, Directors,
Hotel, Baguio City, 28 July 1974)
VOL. V, NO.7
and College Seeretariee, Pines
This three-day conference, to me, has been very fruitful.
I trust that yon have found it equally so. We owe a vote
of thanks to President Salvador P. Lopez for giving his full
support and encouragement to this endeavor. Not only has
he approved the holding of this conference which is a
"first" in U.P.'s history; he has also actively participated
in all the plenary and work group sessions-another "first"
for a U.P. President. Similarly, one of the most senior
members of the Board of Regents, Dean Tomas S. Fona-
cier has been with us throughout the conference. Of
course, we have not failed to notice the charming and
inspiring presence of Mrs. Maria Luna Lopez and a
number of the administrators' wives.
To the Management Education Council, paper writers
and other speakers, our congratulations for a job well
done. It has been observed that many U.P. colleges and
institutes have long been training executives and managers
from other agencies, but have neglected the homefront.
I hope that this initial effort of the Council to promote
management development among our own college and
university administrators will be continued and even ex-
panded.
For the importance of the management development of
deans, directors, and college secretaries cannot be over-
emphasized. Most of us started our careers as specialists
in our respective disciplines or professions. When we later
assumed supervisory or management responsibilities, we
had to perform the functions of a generalist. How do we
distinguish a generalist from a specialist? A specialist is
one who knows more and more about less and less;
while a generalist is one who knows less and less about
more and more. As generalist administrators, we have
to broaden and be familiar with a wide variety of things-
from custodial service to academic planning, from the
mundane to the sublime.
I need not repeat the many ideas and recommendations
that we discussed in the last three days. This has been
done by the work group reports. I would like, at this time,
to place this conference in larger perspective. Our activ-
ities in the last three days should be considered as a part
of our self-development as managers. Indeed, one of the
basic premises of executive development is that the de-
velopment of an administrator or manager is self-moti-
vnted and self-realized. It goes back to the Socratic adage:
"Know thyself." And in seminars or conferences such as
this, we get together with fellow administrators who
could serve as mirrors in our individual effort to know
more of our respective selves. In other words, as prac-
tising academic administrators, we were not convened here
primarily to be taught by management specialists. We
came here to learn from each other. And after three days
of hard work, I hope we understand ourselves better.
Executive development, moreover, is a continuing proc-
ess; we learn from various situations, whether they be
formal seminars, informal group discussions, on-the-job
activities, or face-to-face contacts. Thus, after this man-
agement development conference, let us not think that
we now know all about the management process. Let us
rather consider our participation in this conference as the
end of a good beginning, as an experience that will mo-
tivate us to know more about the realities, intricacies and
requirements of management. Indeed, any administrator
who thinks that he has finished his management educa-
tion is finished but not educated.
In this conference, we concentrated on the five aspects
of the management process, namely: planning, organizing,
staffing, directing, and controlling. But we realize that,
in actual administrative life, management is a seamless
web, that these five management aspects are interacting
elements of a single, unified process. Many of our prob-
lems as administrators can not be categorized as merely
problems of planning, of staffing, of controlling, and so
forth. Thus, we need to adopt the systems approach in
analyzing our problems and in carrying on our tasks as
administrators.
There is today an "information explosion" in the man-
agement sciences. Regardless of our training and ex-
perience as college or university administrators, there is
much to know more about concepts and techniques of
managing a college or a university. We must be keenly
aware of the need to obtain adequate and timely manage-
ment information for sound decision-making. We have to
be familiar with the social, political, economic and tech-
nical environment of college or university administration
which should include an understanding of the dual struc-
tures of power in the University, namely: (a) the bureau-
cratic or executive, and (b) the collegial or professional.
And we need to recognize that our colleges, institutes,
or centers must be managed not only as integral parts of
the U.P. System, but also within the context of Philippine
society.
Knowledge and awareness, however, are not enough.
They must be complemented by proper attitudinal and
value orientation. Unfortunately, there is often a gap
between what one knows and how he behaves. For in-
stance, an administrator may know all about the latest
approaches to good interpersonal relations, but he may
fail miserably in actual practice. For no knowledge in the
head can make up for a lack of feeling in the heart.
What are the desirable attitudinal and value orientation
and the attributes that the academic administrator should
develop? Instead of presenting a long inventory of atti-
tudes and attributes, let me give a general portrait of a
good academic administrator in the Philippine setting.
First, he is development-oriented. Not only does he get
things done, but sees to it that these things are related
to the effective attainment of developmental goals. He is
purposive and positive in his thinking. While he considers
short-term needs and problems, he usually takes the long
view. He is creative and innovative, ceaselessly searching
for new ways to improve current programs and to trigger
further development.
Secondly, the good academic administrator appreciates
the value of theory and models, but is realistic and prag-

pine General Hospital of the difficult .assignrnent dif-
ferential for the very same reasons that the nurses and
nursing attendants are given these benefits "in view of
their direct participation and involvement in the care of
psychiatric patients and - their exposure to physical ha-
zards in the event of attack of patients." Although it
may be true that the institution workers have no direct
involvement as far as actual nursing care is concerned,
they are very much involved in the control of violent
patients and exposed to physical injuries that -may be in-
flicted by tbese patients.
In this connection, the Board categorized this bene-
fit as occupational ha.zard differential, as differen-
tiated from the difficult assignment differential, the for-
mer applicable to those exposed to some hazards not ne-
cessarily present in the other units or departments of
the hospital (such as radiation and physical harm) while
the latter is given those who work under exacting and
unique conditions and demands which make their work
more difficult than that in the wards (such as those as-
signed in the' operating room, emergency room, etc.).
CREATION OF TITLES AS WRITER-IN-RESIDENCE,
ARTIST-IN-RESIDENCE, MUSICIAN-IN-RESIDENCE,
ETC.
The Board approved the creation of such titles as
Writer-in-Residence, Artist-in-Residence, Musician-in-Re-
sidence <as the case may be) for highly qualified and
deserving faculty members in the creative arts (litera-
ture, fine arts, music), who shall not be regularly per-
forming administrative functions in order to qualify for
the title, effective upon approval. This title shall be held
by the faculty member concerned for a period of three
(3) years, renewable for like periods if proof of produc-
tion is demonstrated, and will entitle the holder to the
following privileges for the period such title is held:
a. A teaching load of not less than three (3) hut
not more than six (6) units per semester or trimester;
b. An honorarium of P3,OOO.OO per annum, in addi-
tion to the full salary j and
c. Temporary enjoyment of cumulative vacation and
sick leaves.
The Board 1Wted that a number of the faculty members
in the creative arts are urgently in need of time to work
on their projects. While some have been given reduced
teaching load of three (3) units, such a reduction has
not really given them ample time to be productive during
their most active years.
It is therefore high time the University extended this
recognition to deserving faculty members who are also
creative artists and writers in their own right in order
to fully exploit their potentials.
It is understood that more than one deserving person
in each category may be appointed at the same time such
that for example there may simultaneously be a poet-in-
residence, a novelist-in-residence, a historian-in-residence,
a painter-in-residence, a sculptor-in-residence, etc.
ADOPTION OF NEW SALARY SCALE
The Board approved the adoption of a new salary Beale
for academic and administrative personnel of the Univer-
sity, effective July 1, 1974, in -order to comply with. the
Presidential directive authorizing the payment of a 10%
across-the-board salary adjustment for all employees of
the national government.
(For the new salary scale, see pages 148-150)
INTERNAL OPERATING BUDGET OF THE UNI-
VERSITY SYSTEM
Tbe Board approved the Internal Operating Budget
of the University System for Fiscal Year July I, 1974
to June 30, 1975, in the total amount of P132,582,500.00,
including all funds.
REVISED RULES ON AUTOMATIC PRE'-RETIRE-
MENT INCREASE IN SALARY FOR ADMINISTRA-
TIVE PERSONNEL
The Board approved the revised rules on automatic
pre-retirement increase in salary for administrative per-
sonnel (those who will retire at compulsory retirement
age of 65), subject to the following conditions:
a. The automatic pre-retirement increase in salary shall
be given not earlier than one (1) year nor later than
three (3) months prior to the date of retirement, as
follows:
(1) One-step increase - for those who shall have ren-
dered at least 15 years but below 20 years of
service to the University at the time of retire-
ment.
(2) Two-step increase, or the maximum step of the
range, whichever is higher - for those who shan
have rendered at least 20 years of service to the
University at the time of retirement.
(3) In exceptionally meritorious cases, the President
may give more than the increases indicated in
(I) and (2) above.
b. For the purpose of determining the automatic pre-
retirement salary increases proposed in item a above,
the 1973 salary scale shall be considered as continuous,
as follows:

RAFAEL PALMA CENTENNIAL COMMITTEE
Dillman, Quezon City
20 September 1974
REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT PURSUANT TO
ADMINISTRATIVE ORDER NO. 238 DATED
13 SEPTEMBER 1974
This Committee was constituted to "consider and recom-
mend a University program of activities to commemorate
the centenary of the birth of Rafael Palma, fourth
president of the University of the philippines, on October
24, 1974."
The Committee, consonant with the President's sug-
gestion to "highlight [Palma's] distinguished career as
liberal thinker, writer, educator and nationalist and
focus attention on his life, career and character for the
emulation of our students and fellow-citizens," has con-
sidered various ways of doing him honor, taking into
account also the very welcome and well-considered sug-
gestions made by Rafael Palma Professor of History
Teodoro A. Agoncillo in his letter to the President dated
24 August 1974.
Rather than a one-day or one-shot observance of Palma's
centenary, the Committee inclines to a continuing com-
memoration lasting a month at least until the end of
November, if not December. This, by way of a minimum
round of activities to honor a man of such stature who,
but for the lateness of the hour, would normally rate a
longer celebration of his many and varied contributions
to the nation.
Accordingly, the Committee recommends:
1. The repair and renovation of Palma Hall and its
grounds, as a condition sine qua non to any commemora-
tion worthy of the building's namesake.
The Committee suggests in this connection (a) the pos-
sibility of student assistance as part of the YCAP
program, e.g., in scraping off the paint from the walls,
(b) the necessity of impressing Director Francisco Hi-
lario's talents in the cause of the AS surroundings, and
(c) the desirability of removing the old, unsightly chairs
from under the AS pavilions where they are stored
helter-skelter.
2. An exhibit on Palma's life and works, to open Octo-
ber 24 at the lobby of Palma Hall with appropriate
ceremonies.
The Committee suggests in this regard that (a) Palma's
family be invited and (b) a big blown-up picture of
Palma be installed in the lobby.
3. A symposium on Palma sometime in November,
when the second semester shall have been underway.
Suggested speakers: (a) President Lopez on "Palma
as Academician and Administrator," (b) Prof. Agoncillo
on "Rafael Palma: A Profile in Integrity and Courage,"
(c) Dean Leopoido Y. Yabes, and (d) Dean Armando J.
Malay.
4. A concert sometime in November.
5. A special issue of the CoUeuian devoted to Palma.
6. An essay contest on "Palma's Legacy to U.P." open
to the students, with cash prizes.
7. Issuance of a commemorative 8ta..mp by the Bureau
of Posts in Palma's honor, upon representations by Pres-
ident Lopez.
Suggested motif: Palma's likeness together with a
vintage photograph of the old Palma Hall in Padre Faura.
8. Installation of a bust or bas-relief of Palma. in
Palma Hall, like Vinzons' in Vinzons Hall.
9. A popular banquet in Palma's honor sometime in
December, involving in particular the "Palma alumni" or
the University's graduates during its Molave Period.
10. Publication of a commemorative brochure.
Finally, the Committee suggests that subcommittees be
given charge of the above recommendations the soonest,
as time is running short.
Parenthetically, the Committee takes this opportunity
to underscore the patent need for a permanent committee
or office to plan all centenary or anniversary activities in
the University way ahead of date, so they are not given
to hasty improvisation or makeshift arrangement.

MEMORANDUM CIRCULARS
Memorandum Circular No. 22: Reopening of National
Archives to U.P. Scholars
Please be informed that the President of the Philippine
has approved the request of U.P. President Salvador P.
Lopez for the reopening of the National Archives to U.P.
scholars.
The President's approval was transmitted in a memo-
randum to the Director of the National Archives from
Presidential Executive Assistant Jacobo C. Clave dated
10 September 1974, a copy of which was furnished the
President of the University.
President Lopez had underscored the importance of the
archives as Han inexhaustible treasure house of docu-
ments pertaining to virtually every aspect of the Spanish
rule in the country," in a letter to President Marcos on
August 7 in response to an urgent appeal from Dr. Leslie
E. Bauzon, Chairman of the Department of History. He
urged the reopening of the archives to enable scholars
to shed light on important phases of the Spanish period
through archival investigation.

The Board approved a recommendation from the Fi-
nance Committee to request the President to have a study
made of the institution of a system of payment of salaries
of University personnel by checks beginning 1 January
1975.
The Board approved the removal of the Class Manager,
Basilan Land Grant (Range 12) from the Index of
Administrative Classes of the University.
As one of the major income-producing units of the
University, the Basilan Land Grant requires a head who
must possess not only technical know-how but also high
managerial qualities. The distance of the land grant from
the main University campus also requires a manager
who can render sound and independent decisions with
promptness and dispatch in order to maintain an efficient
organization.
Removal of the position from said index will provide
flexibility of compensation allocation and insure the hiring
of a top-caliber manager.
a. Division of Social Sciences and Humanities;
b. Division of Biological Sciences;
c. Division of Physical Sciences and Mathematics;
d. Division of Business and Public Administration; and
e. Division of Professional Education.
The Board approved the creation of the following
academic divisions in the University of the Philippines
at Iloilo effective the first semester, academic year 1974-
1975, and the appointment of a chairman for each:
CHANGE IN SALARY SCALES FOR NEW CLASS
POSITIONS OF ADMISSIONS SPECIALIST III, AD-
MISSIONS SPECIALIST IV, ASSOCIATE COMPUTER
PROGRAMMER
The Board approved the change in the salary scales for
the new class positions of Admissions Specialist III,
Admissions Specialist IV, and Associate Computer Pro-
grammer, to make them conform with the new U.P. salary
scales.
The Board noted that when the new class titles were
submitted for approval by the Board, the new salary
scales were not yet in effect; hence, the recommended
scales were still based on the then existing 1973 scales.
d. Offs.t -
(1) Minimum of P2.00 per plate for the first ream;
(2) P1.50 for succeeding copies per ream.
(Note: Materials supplied by requesting party.)
The Board approved the increase in the fee charged b)'
the Philippine General Hospital for medical certificates
(medico-legal certificates, certificates in connection with
claims in the SSS, WCC, etc.) from PO.50 to ?l.OO.
The amount of PO.50 had been the same since post-
liberation days despite increases in the cost of materials.
The Board likewise authorized the PGH to charge non-
patient clients for psychiatric evaluation tests a fee of
P15.00. Income derived from this source will help the
hospital finance its varied activities.

NARRATOR:
I have tried to distill a few basic principles
to guide me in running the University.
The first of these is that the University
is both a conservator of the wisdom of the past
and an agent of change--
the nation's primary instrument for the purpose.
.'
A university that has become as silent as a
has lost the right to be called a university.
SPEECH CHOIR:
Weare running a race with catastrophe.
For, it is far easier to lose freedom without bloodshed
than to regain freedom without bloodshed.
A people may be willing to forego freedom and
democracy for the sake of necessary reforms,
but not indefinitely and certainly not forever.
To try to uproot love of freedom
from the heart of the Filipino
or to extinguish the flame of liherty
that burns in his soul
would be an impossible task.
Rather, we should try together as :l people
to achieve freedom with responsibility,
order without regimentation,
authority without tyranny-
that is, a compromise
between the integrity of individual life
and the imperatives of collective existence
and to achieve all this '
without the violence and bloodshed
that usually attend revolutionary enterprises.

NARRATOR:
I accepted the presidency of the U.P. in 1969
at a time when the position of university
administrator was the most hazardous and
unwanted job in the world.
It was not an easy decision to make.
Having already served in the highest positions
in the foreign service, and actually holding then
the two most important diplomatic posts
of the Republic, I seriously doubted the wisdom
of carving yet another career in the unfamiliar
and not-sa-tranquil grove of academe.
In the end, I decided to accept,
because all my life I have never evaded
the challenge of service.
I have never regretted the decision.
There may be more prestigious, better rewarded
positions than that of U.P. President.
but there is none more important,
more inwardly satisfying Or rewarding.
To be involved with the young
Is to be where the action is.
It is to have a hand in shaping tomorrow.
IX
CHORUS:
This University shall best serve the nation
by embracing forever the true vocation of a
university which is the earnest search for truth
and the tireless pursuit of knowledge,
by committing itself to creative scholarship
and placing itself resolutely
in the service of ideas.
In this time of crisis
we have been told to damp the lights
all over the nation.
Let's dim the lights in the streets,
in the farms, factories and coffee-shops,
even in our homes, if need be-
but we must never let the lights
go out in the University.
For, as long as the lights
are turned on in the University,
our land will never be plunged
in total darkness-
and our people will be able
to live and learn,
to work and eat their daily rice
by the light of freedom
from the lamp of truth.
THE V.P. SYSTEM AND V.P. AT LOS BANOS
By SALVADOR P. LOPEZ
President
(Extemporaneous remarks after recelVmg a testimomal plaque from Chancellor Abelardo G. Samonie
at a teetimonial dinner in the P.resident's honor at the U.P. at Los Banos Union main dining hall,
28 September 1971,)
What a difference between this pleasant gathering
tonight and the time I came to Los Banos in 1969, when,
as the "new boy" at Quezon Hall I had to rush here and
help then Vice-President Umali settle a massive protest
strike of faculty and students. We stayed up most of
the night around a four-sided conference table which the
students insisted upon and which so much reminded me
of the Vietname peace talks that were being held simul-
taneously in Paris.
Mrs. Lopez and I are really overwhelmed by this large
turnout. But as Regent Drilon told me earlier, one wonders
whether this is a rousing welcome or a rousing send-off.
In looking forward to my "tenth anniversary" as Pres-
ident of the University, Chancellor Samonte has impliedly
nominated me for another term of at least four years.
However, his is only one vote out of eleven in the Board
of Regents. But Regent Fonacier and Regent Drilon are
also here and, assuming they are in favor, that makes
three votes. With my own (assuming I'm also in favor)
that makes four votes. We need only two more to have
a majority!
People, however, seem to take for granted my impending
transfer to Padre Faura, back to the foreign service.
If that should happen, then the parallelism between my
career and that of my distinguished predecessor, Dr. Car-
los P. Romulo, would really be uncanny. I was in
Professor Romulo's class in American literature in 1930.
In 1933, when he moved from the Ma.nila Tribune to the
170 V.P. GAZETTE
VOL. V, NO.9
Philippines Herold, Editor-Publisher Romulo invited me
to become the latter paper's daily columnist and, later,
associate editor. After war broke out in December 1941,
I followed him to Corregidor where I worked with him
on the staff of General MacArthur. After liberation, he
asked me to help him establish the Philippine Mission
to the United Nations in New York. So, I have been
following his giants steps all the way, as Ambassador to
the U.N., Secretary of Foreign Affairs, Ambassador to
Washington, and President of the D.P. And now, am I
also going back to Padre Faura and diplomacy, as
Secretary Romulo did in 19691 That would be really too
extraordinary to be purely coincidental.
I have had four careers in the course of a lifetime:
eight years in journalism before the war, four years in
the army during the war, twenty-three years in diplomacy
after independence, and the last nearly six years in
education. Looking back over these forty years, I consider
the presidency of the University of the Philippines to be
the best, most important, most rewarding job I've ever
had. One has an extraordinary sense of commitment, of
being fully used, of being where the action is, of being
with the young and, therefore, of having a hand in
shaping tomorrow.
I would not exchange my six years in the University
for the twenty-three years I spent in the foreign service.
We have taken certain important initiatives in the
University which I'd like to see through. The U.P. System
was established on our recommendation under Presidential
Decree No. 58 issued by President Marcos on November
20, 1972, in response to the need to establish the autono-
mous U.P. at Los Banos. In a sense, the U.P. System had
to be established in order to accommodate the UPLB.
There has since been developing a special relationship
between Diliman and Los Banos. It was fortunate that
in the initial years of the UPLB as an autonomous
university there has been such excellent rapport between
the Chancellor and myself. With a different man in
Diliman and a different man in Los Banos, the relation-
ship might well have been very different. If I have ap-
proved virtually all important recommendations from Los
Banos, it's because the Chancellor had previously served
in Diliman for four years as Vice-President for Academic
Affairs and worked very closely with me on the problems
of the University; in the process, a high degree of mutual
respect and comprehension had grown between us. I hope
our successors in Diliman and Los Banos will maintain
this close rapport so as to ensure the success of UPLB
as an autonomous university within the System.
The success of UPLB as a member of the U.P. System
is crucial for three reasons: first, it is setting a pattern
of relationship appropriate between an autonomous uni-
versity and the System; secondly, it has been the pace-
setter in the development of adequate physical plant and
facilities; and thirdly, it is demonstrating the validity
of the philosophy underlying the D.P. System.
I'm told that Dr. Bienvenido M. Gonzalez once expressed
the belief that his administration as U.P. President would
be remembered for the transfer of the University from
Padre Faura to Dillman, which he boldly initiated and
carried out against powerful opposition. Similarly, I be-
lieve that my presidency would be remembered not only
as the most tumultuous in the history of the University,
but also as a period of unprecedented development for the
institution. These have been years of turmoil, exemplified
by the barricades of 1971, but they have also been years
of growth, exemplified by the establishment of the U.P.
System and of the UPLB as an autonomous member of
the System.
There may be attempts in the future, as there have been
in the past, to erode the unity and integrity of the U.P.
System. But I believe we have contained the most serious
of these attempts. Our main task now is to consolidate
the gains and advances that have been made in the last
two or three years.
I anticipate not the contraction of the U.P. System but
its further expansion. in a few days, I am going to Iloilo,
Cebu and 'I'acloban to preside over the ground-breaking
for new buildings.
For the first time, there is an appropriation in our
budget of PI million for each regional unit as a token
of the Board's desire to ensure that the U.P. System will
grow.
The assumption is that each of these regional units
should be given an opportunity to develop into an auto-
nomous university like Los Banos. But they can do this
only if they devise programs that are responsive to the
needs and aspirations of the people in the regions where
they are located while maintaining the high standards of
the University.
If our years in the University have been years of
growth in spite of turmoil, it's largely because I have had
the good fortune to enjoy an exceptionally fine working
relationship with the Board of Regents. No University
President has worked more closely and cooperatively with
the Board, and the Board with the President. I also would
like to acknowledge the continuing support I have received
from the national government, particularly from President
Marcos, who has given the U.P. the biggest operating
budget ever in its entire history: from P60 million last
year to P90 million this year, an increase of 50 percent-
and all of it programmed.. At the President's behest,
a five-year development program for the D.P. is being
prepared that will give the flagship campus in Dillman
the same massive upgrading of buildings, facilities and
programs that was achieved in Los Banos between 1966
and 1971.
I wish to repeat, I've not done this all by myself. In
addition to the cooperation of the Board of Regents and
the support of President Marcos, I have enjoyed the heip
of many men and women of great ability on the faculty
and in the administration of the University. True, I have
worked very hard on this job, but there are others too
many to name who have worked just as hard. To all of
them, I give my thanks.
My wife has been warning- me that many of my speeches
in recent months have begun to sound like valedictories.
Well, that probably can't be helped. All good things do
come to an end, even the Presidency of the U.P. If I may
advert once again to the impending end of my term, there
are other options open to me in addition to remaining in
the University (if the Regents will have me) or going
back to the foreign service. I hold a unique appointment
as University Professor, and I'd really love to teach and
have time to write. And, of course, there's always the
option of retirement. But at age 63, I don't think I can
stand the rigors of retirement.

By SALVADOR P. LOPEZ
President
University of the Philippines
8 October 1974
His Honor
Mayor Norberta S. Amoranto
Quezon City
Dear Mayor Amaranto:
This will acknowledge your letter of September 13,
1974, inviting our attention to a telegram of Mr. A. D.
Narciso, a city resident who, among other things, sug-
gested that "the City government should apply pressure
on the University of the Philippines to develop and
beautify its campus and make it like a good park and a
tourist attraction".
I wish to assure you and through you, the residents
of Quezon City, that the University has been devoting
a great deal of attention and resources to the beautifica-
tion of its campus. It does not have to be pressured by
anybody to do this. The University has been attending to
this activity since it transferred from Manila in 1949.
Through its Office of Campus Landscaping, the University
at present has a continuing program of campus land-
scaping and beautification. Among 'the projects directed
toward this end is the planting of trees at the rate of
one hundred a month. We have started the development
of the lagoon behind the Administration Building into a
botanical garden with an aquarium. Our Arboretum near
the premises of the Philippine Atomic Energy Commission
and a Children's Playground near the Executive House
As President of the University of the Philippines and
Chairman of the Board of the University Press, I am
doubly gratified by the publication of Dr. Estrella Soli-
dum's excellent study, Towards a Southeast Asian Com-
munity. 1
The encouragement of scholarship is one great reason'
why the University exists. The University is a place
where the human intelligence can have full rein and en-
gage in the search for truth wherever it may lead.
It is fashionable in developing societies to say that
universities should engage only in studies and research
that are relevant to national needs. This aim is not dif-
ficult to achieve, because there is always a great deal
of money available for relevant research: for the develop-
ment of miracle rice, miracle swine, miracle fish, etc.,
or in the domain of population control or environmental
planning.
As President of the U.P., which is the country's main
center of research, and as a member of the National
Science Development Board, which gives millions of pesos
are popular attractions for community residents and out-
siders.
The University Avenue leading to the newly-constructed
Oblation Plaza boasts of well manicured santan hedges
that emphasize the beauty of the Dona Aurora flowering
trees. It is without question the most impressive avenue
in Quezon City or any other city of the country and has
been awarded many prizes. Foreign tourists as well as
promenaders from nearby communities come to visit the
Oblation statue towering above the multi-colored pool and
fountain at the end of the avenue.
In closing, may I in turn urge the Quezon City Govern-
ment to sustain its efforts to develop the Quezon Memorial '
Circle into a beautiful park which the residents of the
City so richly deserve and of which they can be proud.
I certainly agree that we should all take positive action
on the suggestions of Mr. Narciso which merit considera-
tion.
The U.P. will support and assist any program of land-
scape development and beautification which Quezon
City will initiate. It is good to know that this capital city
of the Republic is finally taking an interest in this
matter.
With kindest regards and best wishes.
Sincerely yours,
(Sgd.) SALVADOR P. LOPEZ

MEMORANDUM CIRCULARS
Memorandum Circular No. 40: Economy Measures on
University Expenditur.es
The Budget Commission, pursuant to a directive from
the President of the Philippines, has placed under re-
serve 15% of the authorized FY 1974-1975 appropriations
of all government agencies including the University of
the Philippines. This means that the proposed expen-
diture authorized in the internal operating budget of the
University approved by the Board of Regents on August
29, 1974 will have to be reduced to absorb the cut made
on the government contribution.
In view of this situation, all deans, directors and heads
of offices are hereby enjoined to observe strict economy
in the operation of their units or offices. They are re-
quested to ensure proper enforcement of existing circulars
