CHAPTER VIII
8/42

The dictator was to be known as the president of the revolutionary government.

There were to be four secretaries--one of foreign affairs, commerce and marine; one of war and public works; one of police and interior order, justice, education and hygiene; one of the treasury, agriculture and manufactures.

The government could increase the number of secretaries if necessary.

They were to assist the president in the despatch of business coming under their departments.
In addition to the president and his secretaries, there was to be a revolutionary congress composed of representatives from the provinces of the Philippine Archipelago, elected as provided by the decree of June 18.

In case a province was not able to elect representatives, the government would appoint them for such province.
