A year ha passed since Ferdinand Edralin Marcos, sixth president of the post-war Republic of the Philippines, placed his country under the "divine guidance" of martial law and assumed near-dictatorial powers as chief executive and self-proclaimed architect of a "New Society." Presidents Marcos has offered the threat of Communist subversion and insurrection, and the need for national discipline and reform as explanation and justification for his dramatic proclamation of September 21, 1972.
