The carabao supply, badly depleted during the Japanese occupation, was needed to increase the rural economy. Magsaysay ordered the navy to seize shipments of carabao en route to Manila for slaughter. In- spectors found a majority of the animals were healthy. Magsaysay put investigators to work. They found the country’s carabao supply was decreasing and rustling was a thriving, profit- able business. One area reported more than 3,000 carabaos stolen from farmers for butchering in Manila. The President asked Manila Mayor Arsenio Lacson for permis- sion to place an army veterinarian in the slaughterhouses. Lacson re- fused on the ground it would vio- late existing laws. Magsaysay countered by signing an executive order banning the slaughter of carabaos for one year.

It is in recognition of this fact that NSPE has chosen the week during which is birthday is celebrated for} the annual tribute to engineers) throughout the nation. Concern with the status of the engineer has always been the primary interest of the National Society, 211 of whose members are registered profession- al engineers. To insure effective give-and-take of ideas and to af- ford every member an opportunity to contribute to and benefit from society programs and activities, the NSPE has been set up as a three-level organization with local chapters, state societies, and, of course, the National Society as the coordinating body. Foremost among the programs that the Society sponsors is its con- ulng study and research into the vlems of engineers in industry. rther facilitate this program, a1 the Society established the ‘ossional Engineers Conference ard for Industry, a group of out- standing engineers, whose work has already resulted in the pub- lication of three widely-heralded and frequently-quoted _ reports.

Q. Can an oyster see? A. Oysters, as well as other bi jvalves such as clams and scallops do have means of “seeing.” Com- {pletely surrounding these animals is a flat sheet of tissue called the mantle which has several functions vital to the well-being of the ani- mal. On the edge of this structure there are organs known as pallial eyes. These eyes are sensitive to a decrease in light, such as a sha- ington, D.
