[ Proclamation No. 733, July 2, 1941 ]

DECLARING THE 5TH DAY OF JULY, 1941, A SPECIAL PUBLIC HOLIDAY

Whereas it appears to the Chief Executive that, inasmuch as the fourth and sixth days of July, nineteen hundred and forty-one, are public holidays, the fifth day of July, nineteen hundred and forty-one, can be declared a special public holiday to the great advantage of the banking houses and no disadvantage will result to the public in general; and

Whereas it is expected that banking houses will see to it that negotiable papers which would fall due on the fifth day of July, nineteen hundred and forty-one, if the same were not a holiday, should not be protested until the sunset of the following Monday, July seventh, nineteen hundred and forty-one;

Now, therefore, I, MANUEL L. QUEZON, President of the Philippines, by virtue of the authority in me vested by section thirty of the Revised Administrative Code, and there being in my judgment sufficient reasons therefor, do hereby proclaim Saturday, July fifth, nineteen hundred and forty-one, as a special public holiday.1aшphi1

In witness whereof, I have hereunto set my hand and caused the seal of the Commonwealth of the Philippines to be affixed.

Done at the City of Manila, this second day of July, in the year of Our Lord, nineteen hundred and forty-one, and of the Commonwealth of the Philippines, the sixth.

MANUEL L. QUEZON
President of the Philippines
