PEACE FUND CAMPAIGN
As a means of implementing the peace campaign of the government,
special stamps called BARANGAY was issued, bearing a symbolic design
with the prominent figure of a "Cabeza de Barangay" overlooking a
vast plain of grains being harvested by peaceful and contented
citizens. On the right
foreground is a lovely country maid glowing with health and carrying
joyfully an armful of palay stalks. Inscriptions:
COMMUNITY UNITY, STRENGTII, PEACE, AND SECURITY.
