Prior to the Philippine national elections of 1946, at the height of the last Commonwealth elections, Senate President Roxas and his friends left the Nacionalista Party and formed the Liberal Party. Roxas became their candidate for president and Elpidio Quirino for vice-president. The Nacionalistas, on the other hand, had Osme\u00f1a for president and Senator Eulogio Rodriguez for vice-president. Roxas had the staunch support of General MacArthur. Osme\u00f1a refused to campaign, saying that the Filipino people knew of his reputation. On April 23, 1946, Roxas won 54 percent of the vote, and the Liberal Party won a majority in the legislature.<\/p>\n

On May 8, 1946, prior to his inauguration, President-elect Roxas, accompanied by US High Commissioner Paul V. McNutt, left for the United States.<\/p>\n

On May 28, 1946, Roxas was inaugurated as the last President of the Commonwealth of the Philippines. The inaugural ceremonies were held in the ruins of the Legislative Building (now part of the National Museum of the Philippines) and were witnessed by about 200,000 people. In his address, he outlined the main policies of his administration, mainly: closer ties with the United States; adherence to the newly created United Nations; national reconstruction; relief for the masses; social justice for the working class; the maintenance of peace and order; the preservation of individual rights and liberties of the citizenry; and honesty and efficiency of government.<\/p>\n

On June 3, 1946, Roxas appeared for the first time before a joint session of Congress to deliver his first State of the Nation Address. Among other things, he told the members of the Congress the grave problems and difficulties the Philippines face and reported on his special trip to the United States to discuss the approval for independence.<\/p>\n

In 1946, shortly after his induction to presidency, Manuel Roxas proclaimed the Rice Share Tenancy Act of 1933 effective throughout the country. However problems of land tenure continued. In fact these became worse in certain areas. Among the remedial measures enacted was Republic Act No. 1946 likewise known as the Tenant Act which provided for a 70\u201330 sharing arrangements and regulated share-tenancy contracts. It was passed to resolve the ongoing peasant unrest in Central Luzon.<\/p>\n

On August 5, 1946, the Congress of the Philippines ratified the Treaty of General Relations that had been entered into by and between the Republic of the Philippines and the United States on July 4, 1946. Aside from withdrawing her sovereignty from the Philippines and recognizing her independence, the Treaty reserved for the United States some bases for the mutual protection of both countries; consented that the United States represent the Philippines in countries where the latter had not yet established diplomatic representation; made the Philippines assume all debts and obligations of the former government in the Philippines; and provided for the settlement of property rights of the citizens of both countries.<\/p>\n

On 19 September 1946 the Republic of the Philippines notified the United Kingdom that it wished to take over the administration of the Turtle Islands and the Mangesse Islands. Pursuant to a supplemental international agreement, the transfer of administration became effective on 16 October 1947.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

On March 11, 1947, Philippine voters, agreeing with Roxas, ratified in a nationwide plebiscite the “parity amendment” to the 1935 Constitution of the Philippines, granting United States citizens the right to dispose of and utilize Philippine natural resources, or parity rights.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

President Roxas, on January 28, 1948, granted full amnesty to all so-called Philippine collaborators, many of whom were on trial or awaiting to be tried, particularly former President Jos\u00e9 P. Laurel (1943\u20131945). The Amnesty Proclamation did not apply to those “collaborators”, who were charged with the commission of common crimes, such as murder, rape, and arson. The presidential decision did much to heal a standing wound that somehow threatened to divide the people’s sentiments. It was a much-called for measure to bring about a closer unity in the trying times when such was most needed for the progress of the nation.<\/p>\n

Disgusted with the crimes being committed by the guerilla movement Hukb\u00f3 ng Bayan Laban sa Hap\u00f3n (Nation’s Army Against the Japanese, also called “the Huks”) and possessing evidence of their subversion, Roxas issued a proclamation outlawing the Huk movement on March 6, 1948. It had become an imperative in view of the resurgence of Huk depredations, following the unseating of the seven Communists, led by Huk Supremo Luis Taruc through acts of terrorism.<\/p>\n

On April 17, 1948, two days after Roxas’ death, Vice-President Elpidio Quirino took the oath of office as President of the Philippines.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Roxas’ son, Gerardo (“Gerry”), became a member of the Philippine House of Representatives and a leader of Liberal Party of the Philippines. Gerry’s sons, Manuel II (“Mar”) and Gerardo, Jr. (“Dinggoy”), served as representatives from Capiz. In 2004, Mar became a Senator and was also elected president of the Liberal Party. His daughter-in-law, Judy Araneta (widow of Gerry), continues to be a prominent and driving force of the Liberal Party.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
