Elpidio R. Quirino
At the point when President Manuel Roxas died on April 15, 1948, Quirino
succeeded him as leader of the republic. For his shortcoming in enduring
wild unite and debasement in his gathering, allowing impropriety in the military,
and ignoring the ruined predicament of the larger part of Filipinos, he
was exceptionally disagreeable, and in 1953 he was vanquished by Ramon
Magsaysay.
After the war, Quirino was chosen VP in 1946 race, subsequently the second
and keep going for the Commonwealth and first for the third republic. After
the passing of the officeholder president Manuel Roxas in 1948, he succeeded
the administration. In what was guaranteed to be a deceptive and
false 1949 presidential decision, he won the president's office under Liberal
Party ticket, overcoming Nacionalista strive and previous president José P.
Laurel and additionally individual Liberalista and previous senate president
José Avelino.
Elpidio Quirino (1948-1953)
At the point when Quirino's organization begun, after war
recreation was all the while experiencing and the HUKS were
all the while making riot in the nation. The economy was fluctuating
a result of the ascent in the unemployment rate and
expansion; and issues with respect to lodging, education, impoverishment
and farmland escalated. To tackle the issues in
the nation, he guaranteed to repair the current framework. He
likewise plans to control the costs and make makers shoppers
as well. PACSA, ACCFA, Labor Management Advisory Board,
Rural Banks, "Fireside talks", and HUKBALAHAP absolution
were the projects/arrangements he built up amid his organization.
Miserable families, agriculturists, his organization, HUK-
BALAHAP individuals, and the overall population were profited
from this. Issues like the uprising of the HUKS still continued
amid his time although the remission. He was additionally not
ready to cure the issues of the masses. Discussions like deceiving
in the decisions and utilizing government cash to buy a
Golden Orinola made the general population detest his organization.

Ramon F. Magsaysay(1953-1957)
Ramon F. Magsaysay
Magsaysay was a liberal, the Nacionalista Party supported him for the administration
against Quirino in the 1953 decisions, and Magsaysay won. He guaranteed change in almost
every fragment of Filipino life, however he was regularly ruined by a congress that
lone spoke to the interests of the affluent. Magsaysay managed to sanction agrarian
change, giving nearly 90,000 sections of land to 4,500 penniless families for settlement/
cultivating purposes. He additionally set up a procedure to hear and address subject
grievances, and kept up notoriety for moral soundness all through his administration, all
of which went far toward guaranteeing his prevalence.
Ramon Magsaysay was named as "the guy" on the grounds that many considered him
as the president who truly associated and spoke to the regular man being a president
with a thoughtful heart to the masses. He even opened Malacañang to people in general.
His death was given issues telling that his plane didn't really smashed however it
was sneaked in with a bomb that brought on the plane crash of the president.

Carlos P. Garcia
The Philippines consented to various conditions set by the
United States as a necessity for the Philippines to get war
reproduction help. The stream of imports had enormously
expanded making the Philippines intensely ward of imported
items. Imports originating from the United States
were likewise permitted to enter the nation without taxes,
the Philippines additionally guaranteed not to change its
swapping scale from $1 is to P2. The state of the Philippines
before the organization of Garcia was the Philippines
are quite recently recouping from the eventual outcomes of
World War 2, with this the Philippines encountered a few
financial difficulties.
The concentration of the Garcia organization concentrated
on financial freedom from remote intrigue. Garcia needed
the Philippines to be an industrialized, self-managing nation
that would not need to intensely depend on the results of
remote organizations. Garcia additionally had a go at embedding
his Austerity Program with expectations of wiping out
debasement in his organization at the same time supporting good
fiber to the administration pioneers and representatives. Toward
the finish of his term Garcia was
condemned for his absence of program
for the Filipino normal man
which was the concentration of the
following president Macapagal that
is the reason he lost the decision to
him.

Diosdado P. P. Macapagal
Diosdado Macapagal was picked by the general population of the Philippines to be their leader in 1961 and
his term finished in 1965. Thought to be morally sound by most amid the time, he may have filled in as a
motivation to his kin. That is the reason he incorporated the requirement for the nation to have a decent
handle of good ethics and morals. He likewise needed to end debasement, neediness, vagrancy, and different
issues that tormented the normal man. Amid his whole term in any case, none of what he guaranteed
or needed was truly accomplished. This makes him look very awful as a pioneer of the nation as opposed
to what he should be viewed as. He's the kind of individual who's more on talk as opposed to activity.
The downgrading of the Philippine Peso began amid his term which makes him, according to a few,
the base of a considerable measure of today's issues in the nation. Other than that, he returned organized
commerce and free entrptise to the nation which compacted nearby merchandise and organizations which
keep on suffering up to today. When it went to his guarantees to the normal man, the agriculturists specifically,
he was not able keep his them amid his term. He was not able give them the land they required
on the grounds that besides having no particular time table with reference to when they were to get the
land, the legislature didn't have the cash to buy the land from the hacienderos which was to be disseminated
to the ranchers in any case. Fundamentally, he made better than average discourses and the nation
didn't "bite the dust" when he was in power yet he couldn't do anything incredible that issues were expelled.
In the event that ordinary citizens today are gotten some information about what he did, the appropriate
response might be as outrageous as "Nothing!" or clever as "He fathered a dwarf!" Diosdado
likely wasn't an awful man and may really be "ethical" in spite of the issues. Shockingly, his term and his
authority are currently observed as either inefficient to the nation or were the underlying drivers the as yet
proceeding with fall of the Philippine economy today. That is the reason he is evaluated sufficiently high to
pass however not sufficiently high to be viewed as a decent president.

Austerity Program Success (?)
Editorial Article by Joriza Marie A. Siaotong
The Austerity law has given the Garcia administration a shine in the dark. This
law was implemented to solve corruption in our mother land. A number of the
Filipino population has given back their trust to the government knowing that this
might be it, this is the moment we have all been waiting for. The government being
one with the nation and not being robbed.
But the plan of the supposed to be answer ended up taking the wrong turn and
brought back the evil, that is greed and thirst for power. A law that was supposed
to end corruption didn’t actually end any corruption in the Philippines. Former
president Carlos P. Garcia meant well, but meaning well didn’t completely
banish a crime surrounding politics. A law that might have been the answer to all
these chaos inside the government ironically met the problem once again and
this time, there is no more sense to the law.
It’s scary how the thirst for anything can ruin something really positive and life
changing for majority of the people. The want to be selfish flourished and the
want to be selfless became irrelevant. No matter how strong or innocent a leader
is, when his colleagues decides to be seduced by selfishness and greed, the
power of the one and only hope gets drowned out by the many who don’t care
about the ‘many’.

“Government of the people, by the

Health & Lifestyle article by Joriza Marie A. Siaotong
Ramon Magsaysay was considered the best president by many people. The
fact that he didn’t let the Filipino people see that there is a line between the
president and his people. He showed what it’s like to be actually one with
the Filipino nation. A leader who walks along with his people is the one who
was made by the people. A leader would not act as a God, for it it God who
created him.
A simple lifestyle by the president is what amazed people. Instead of going
around the world purchasing expensive wines and materials, he chose to
drink an Ilocano wine for his toast along with international politicians. He
showcased what Filipinos do have and not something that ‘we can expensively
afford’.

Get to Know More about the Leaders during
the Third Republic
By: Anna Mikael D. Balan
The Third Republic of the Philippines was introduced on July 4, 1946. It denoted
the peak of the peaceful campaign for Philippine Independence—the two points of
interest of which were the order of the Jones Law in 1916 (in which the U.S. Congress
vowed freedom for the Philippines once Filipinos have demonstrated their
ability for self-government) and the Philippine Independence Act of 1934
(prominently known as Tydings-McDuffie) which set up a ten-year move period
amid which the Philippines had Commonwealth status. The Third Republic likewise
denoted the acknowledgment by the worldwide group of countries, of the nationhood
of the Philippines—a procedure that started when the Commonwealth of the
Philippines joined the Anti-Axis Alliance known as the United Nations on June 14,
1942, getting acknowledgment as an Allied country even before independence.
Thus, the introduction of the Third Republic denoted the satisfaction of the long
battle for autonomy that started with the Philippine Revolution on August 23, 1896
and which was formalized on June 12, 1898 with the Proclamation of Philippine Independence
at Kawit, Cavite.
From 1946 to 1961, Independence Day was celebrated on July 4. On May 12,
1962, President Diosdado Macapagal issued Proclamation No. 28, s. 1962, which
announced June 12 as Independence Day. In 1964, Congress passed Republic Act
No. 4166, which formally assigned June 12 of consistently as the date on which
we observe Philippine independence. July 4 has been seen as Republic Day from
that point forward.

we regard it – as we must – in the light of
basic democratic principles. The first of
these principles is the declaration of the

General Trends
The return of fashion
By 1947, the Paris fashion houses had revived, and at the end of the day Paris
continued its position as the mediator of high design. The "orderly, rhythmic evolution
of fashion change" had been disturbed by the war, and another heading
was long late. The cushioned shoulder, tubular, square shaped line, and short
skirt (that had been around since before the war and was related to uniforms)
was gone. A progression of style patterns drove by Christian Dior and Cristóbal
Balenciaga characterized the changing outline of ladies' garments through the
1950s. Television joined fashion magazines and films in spreading dress styles.
The new outline had limit bears, a clamped midsection, bust accentuation, and
longer skirts, regularly with more extensive stitches.
Fashion in the years after World
War II is described by the resurgence
of high fashion after the
somberness of the war years.
Square shoulders and short skirts
were supplanted by the delicate
womanliness of Christian Dior's
"New Look" outline, with its clearing
longer skirts, fitted midsection,
and adjusted shoulders, which
thusly offered route to an unfitted,
basic look in the later 1950s.
Developments in material innovation
taking after the war brought
about new textures, for example,
spandex, volleyball shorts and
easy-care texture completes that
fitted the rural way of life of the
1950s with its accentuation on
easygoing sportswear for both
men and ladies. Surprisingly,
young people turned into a compel
in fashion.
The beginnings of Easter fashion
During 1950s, designers in the decolonised Third World tried to make a personality
particular from European design. Urban experts in Asia and the Middle East, for
instance, may wear Western style suits with indigenous headgear, for example,
the Astrakhan, fez or keffiyeh. In India, the customary Sherwani was adjusted
into the Nehru neckline business suit, while ladies much of the time wore sarees
in the working environment. In the interim, the Red Chinese built up the unisex
Mao Suit in green, blue and dark to advance communist estimations of equality.
(Nicholson, 2014) Due to their moderate, current plan, both sorts of suit would
later be received by mod and British intrusion innovators amid the 70s, particularly
The Beatles and The Monkees. .

Casual clothing
& teenage

One outcome of the Post-
World War II financial extension
was a surge of engineered
textures and easycare
forms. "Drip dry" nylon,
orlon and dacron, which
could hold warm set creases
subsequent to washing,
turned out to be hugely well
known. Acrylic, polyester,
triacetate and spandex were
altogether presented in the
1950s. Amid the 1940s nylon
leggings were a unimaginably
well-known item as
they were a lightweight
other option to silk and
fleece tights. For the term of
WW2 the Du Pont organization
delivered nylon solely
for the war exertion. Toward
the finish of 1945 the interest
for nylon tights was
great to the point that Nylon
riots resulted at stores offering
the items. Social
changes ran as an inseparable
unit with new economic
realities, and one outcome
was that numerous youngsters
who might have ended
up breadwinners right off
the bat in their adolescents
before the war now stayed
at home and ward upon
their folks through secondary
school and past, setting
up the idea of the high
school years as a different
phase of development.
Teens and school co-eds
received skirts and sweaters
as a virtual uniform, and the
American fashion industry
started to target young people
as a specific market section
in the 1940s.

In North America, greasers had a comparative social position. Already, young people
dressed correspondingly to their folks, yet now an insubordinate and distinctive
youth style was being created.
Youthful grown-ups coming back to school under the G.I. Bill embraced a simple,
utilitarian closet, and kept on wearing Levis with shirts and pullovers for general
casual wear in the wake of leaving school. Jack Kerouac presented the expression
"Beat Generation" in 1948, summing up from his group of friends to portray the
underground, hostile to copy-cat youth assembling in New York around then. The
expression "hippie" was begat by Herb Caen of the San Francisco Chronicle in
1958, and the cliché "beat" look of shades, berets, dark turtlenecks, and unadorned
dim dress gave another design contrasting option to young people of
both genders, supported by the promoting masters of Madison Avenue.
Womenswear
The new look
In the United Kingdom, the Teddy
young men of the post-war period
made the "first truly independent
fashions for young people", favoring
an overstated adaptation of
the Edwardian-flavored British
design with thin ties and limited,
tight pants worn sufficiently short
to flaunt ostentatious socks. In

On February 12, 1947, Christian Dior propelled the primary gathering of the
House of Dior. The new accumulation went down in fashion history as the "New
Look". The mark shape was portrayed by a beneath mid-calf length, full-skirt,
pointed bust, little midsection, and adjusted shoulder line. Resisted at initially,
particularly in America, where fashion magazines indicated cushioned shoulders
until 1950, the radical new outline soon turned out to be monstrously famous,
impacting style and different creators for a long time to come.

The "delicate quality" of the New
Look was tricky; the bended coat
peplum molded over a high, adjusted,
bended shoulders, and full
skirt of Dior's garments depended
on an internal development of new
interlining materials to shape the
silhouette. This outline has radically
transformed from its past
more manly, solid, triangular
shape to a considerably a much
more feminine form.
Miss America contestant Yolanda Betheze
All through the post-war period, a custom fitted, female look was prized and extras,
for example, gloves and pearls were famous. Customized suits had fitted
coats with peplums, normally worn with a long, limit pencil skirt. Day dresses had
fitted bodices and full skirts, with gem or low profile neck areas or Peter Pan collars.
Shirtdresses, with a shirt-like bodice, were well known, as were strap best
sundresses. Skirts were tight or full, held out with slips; poodle skirts were a short
craze. Ball outfits (full-evaded outfit for white tie events) were longer than lower
leg length dresses (called "ballerina length"), achieving the floor and worn to balls
(as they are today). Semi-formal gowns, "more quick witted than a day dress yet
not as formal as a supper or night dress" were worn for early-night parties. Short
shrugs and bolero coats, regularly made to match low profile dresses, were worn.
Meanwhile, in Israel, straight forward Biblical shoes, blue cotton shirts and utilitarian,
khaki military roused dress stayed well known decisions for some ladies because
of continuous monetary grimness and the need to feel arranged for war.
Clothes for Space Age
From the mid-1950s, another unfitted style of apparel showed up as a contrasting
option to the tight abdomen and full skirt related with the New Look. Vogue
Magazine called the sewed chemise the "Shirt dress." Paris designers started to
change this prevalent form into haute couture. Spanish fashioner Balenciaga had
demonstrated unfitted suits in Paris as right on time as 1951 and unfitted dresses
from 1954. In 1958, Yves Saint Laurent, Dior's protégé and successor, appeared
the "Trapeze Line," adding novel measurement to the chemise dress. These
dresses highlighted a molded bodice with inclining shoulders and a high midriff,
yet the mark shape came about because of a flaring bodice, making a waistless
line from bodice to knees. These styles just gradually picked up acknowledgment
by the more extensive public. Coco Chanel made a rebound in 1954 and a vital
look of the last 1950s was the Chanel suit, with a twist trimmed cardigan-style
coat and A-line skirt. By 1957, most suits highlighted gently fitted coats achieving
just beneath the midsection and shorter, smaller skirts. Balenciaga's garments
highlighted few creases and plain neck areas, and taking after his lead chemise
dresses without midsection creases, either straight and unfitted or in a princess
style with a slight A-line, got to be distinctly famous. The sleeveless, princess-line
dress was known as a skimmer. A more fitted rendition was known as a sheath
dress.
Nylon stockings being investigated
A famous style of brassiere for ladies amid the 1950s was the "bullet bra", where
mugs were pointed in a conelike shape. This brassiere configuration was promoted
by performing artists like Patti Page, Marilyn Monroe, and Lana Turner,
who was nicknamed the "Sweater Girl".

Sportswear
New York had turned into an
American design center focus
amid the war, and remained in
this way, particularly for sportswear,
in the post-war period.
Women who had worn pants on
war benefit declined to surrender
these down to earth pieces
of clothing which suited the
casual parts of the post-war
way of life. By 1955, tight fitting
drainpipe pants got to be distinctly
prominent among American
women. Casual sportswear
was likewise an undeniably
huge part of ladies' closets,
particularly the white T-shirts
advanced by Bridget Bardot and
Sandra Milo in the vicinity of
1957 and 1963. Casual skirts
were thin or full. In the 1950s,
pants turned out to be extremely
restricted, and were
worn lower leg length. Pants
edited to mid-calf were houseboy
pants; shorter jeans, to
beneath the knee, were called
pedal-pushers. Shorts were
short in the mid 1950s, and mid
-thigh length Bermuda shorts
showed up around 1954 and
stayed in vogue through the
rest of the decade. Free printed
or weave finish were in vogue
with jeans or shorts. They additionally
wore swimsuits to don
training.
Bathing suits, including the
Gottex mark well known in Israel
and America, were maybe a
couple piece; some had free
bottoms like shorts with short
skirts. High waisted Bikinis
showed up in Europe and the
South Pacific islands.

Hats and Hairstyles
Hair was worn short and twisted with the New Look, and hats were fundamental
for everything except the most easygoing occasions. Wide-overflowed saucer caps
were appeared with the soonest New Look suits, however littler caps soon prevailed.
Short trimmed hairdos were trendy in the mid 1950s. By mid-decade hats
were worn less every now and again, particularly as more full haircuts like the
short, wavy poodle trim and later bouffant and apiary got to be fashionable.
"Beat" young ladies wore their hair long and straight, and adolescents embraced
the pig tail, short or long.
Maternity wear
In the 1950s, Lucille Ball was the first woman to demonstrate her pregnancy on
TV. The TV program I Love Lucy conveyed new consideration regarding maternity
wear. A large portion of the maternity dresses were two pieces with free tops and
limited skirts. Extend boards obliged for the lady's developing figure. The time of
increased birth rates of the 1940s to the 1950s likewise brought about concentrate
on maternity wear. Indeed, even universal creators, for example, Givenchy
and Norman Hartnell made maternity wear attire lines. Regardless of the new
accentuation on maternity wear in the 1950s maternity wear styles were all the
while being captured on non-pregnant ladies for advertisements.

Suits

Quickly after the war, men's suits were broad shouldered and frequently double
breasted. As wartime limitations on fabrics facilitated, pants got to be distinctly
more full, and were generally styled with sleeves (turn-ups). In America, Esquire
presented the "Bold Look", with wide shoulders, expansive lapels, and an accentuation
on intense, facilitated accessories. In Britain, garments proportioning
stayed set up until 1949. Grounded troopers were furnished with a suit by the
government, for the most part in blue or dim chalkstripes. Savile Row, the customary
home of bespoke or custom fitting, had been vigorously harmed in the
Blitz and was ease back to recover. In 1950, Harper's Bazaar broadcasted the
"Arrival of the Beau". Savile Row presented the "New Edwardian Look", including
a somewhat flared coat, characteristic shoulders, and a general smaller cut, worn
with a wavy overflowed bowler cap and a long thin jacket with velvet neckline and
cuffs. This was the style secured by the Teddy Boys, who included splendid socks
and a bootlace tie, accomplishing a "woozy blend of Edwardian dandy and American
gangster." The frightened tailors of Savile Row dropped the clearly Edwardian
touches, yet the style of matching suits kept on moving far from the wide English
wrap cut, and single-breasted two-piece suits with smaller lines and less cushioning
in the shoulders got to be distinctly popular all over the place. Dull charcoal
dim was the typical shading, and the period of the dim wool suit was conceived.
By the later 1950s, another Continental style of suit showed up from the form
places of Italy, with more keen shoulders, lighter textures, shorter, fitted coats
and smaller lapels.
Hats and Hairstyles
Men's hair fashion supported the wet look, accomplished by the utilization of
items, for example, Brylcreem. Young fellows regularly developed their hair out
and, with grease or other hair medicines, coiffed their hair into pompadours.
Accessories
Browline eyeglasses were usually worn by men amid the
1950s and mid 1960s
Sport coats took after the lines of
suit coats. Tartan plaids were in
vogue in the mid 1950s, and later
plaids and checks of numerous
kinds were worn, as were corduroy
coats with cowhide catches and
auto coats. Khaki-sha ded jeans,
called chinos, were worn for easygoing
events. Bermuda shorts,
frequently in madras plaid, showed
up in mid-decade and were worn
with knee socks. Hawaiian shirts,
worn untucked from suspenders,
likewise turned out to be generally
famous amid this era.This summer
form of the Hawaiian or Carioca
shirt turned out to be especially
mainstream in America, with even
President Truman being captured
wearing a marine flora shirt. Knit
shirts and sweaters of different
sorts were prominent all through
the period. Some young fellows
wore tight pants or pants, calfskin
coats, and white tee shirts.
