The site to be chosen should be large enough to provide room for farming and poultry and for other home industries that would likely yield sufficient income with which to maintain the memorial.
The Committee herein created and the committee representing the war widows and veterans and veterans legions shall thresh out details for the preparation of a definite plan to be submitted to the President of the Philippines. Mrs. Trinidad L. Roxas shall be advised of the plan finally decided upon. The cost of the edifice shall be taken from the P560,000 raised by the Committee of Mrs. Roxas for war widows and veterans.
Done in the City of Manila, this 19th day of May, in the year of Our Lord, nineteen hundred and forty-nine, and of the Independence of the Philippines, the third.
