<p>"DECLARATION OF PRINCIPLES": (1) The Progressive Party believes that sovereignty resides in all the members of this great organization and that the ultimate concern of all officers elected into office will be to work for the general welfare of the group. (2) It considers the constitution as the supreme guide in the conduct of the club's affairs and that the rules and regulations therein provided are just as binding when once approved and adopted. A square deal is our party's watch-word.</p>

<p>ATHLETICS: The Progressive Party believes in promoting athletic competition <pb facs="5427330_0249.jpg" n="3"/>as a means of advertising our club. It also cultivates good will among members. To this end we propose: (1) that free uniforms be provided our women athletes; (2) that free transportation be furnished our athletes who are going to represent our club in the different club picnics of the spring and summer seasons.</p>

<pb facs="5427330_0250.jpg" n="4"/>
<p>PUBLICITY: The Party proposes to publish a quarterly paper dealing with Pangasinan news activities of the club, etc. Names of all Pangasinan and their addresses, and towns where they come from will be published from time to time.</p>
