520			_aThe Bayanikasan Constitution provides the basic guidelines for that democratic democracy. The fundamental problem is universal: Man has conquered outer space but has yet to conquer inner space that is Man himself. Public poverty cannot be the foundation of private wealth. Araneta warns that under the existing rules of the game the alternative to unequitable wealth distribution is the equitable apportioning of poverty. His alternative is to democratize private property, not by abolishing it but by making it universal. One hundred Masses, the unveiling of a marker, the issuing of a postage stamp, the launching of books: these are the ways a nation will commemorate the birth centennial of Dr. Salvador Araneta, industrialist, intellectual, constitutionalist. Few among the young will recall the stature of this man, or his contributions to the history of this country. He was that rare combination of a rich man with a social conscience; an entrepreneur who believed that Philippine industry must pull itself up by its boot straps; who put limitations on the creation and accumulation of wealth on the sound principle that wealth must be equitably shared and be used for purposes to benefit the whole and not just a few. Araneta served President Ramon Magsaysay, just as he served the country as a delegate to the 1935 and 1971 Constitutional Conventions – deciding in the case of the latter to leave the country and exile himself when his country chose to meekly accept dictatorship and a sham Constitution passed by the convention to which he once belonged.
