The event ofcourse inspired personal and spiritual cleanliness, as people started discussing this over great food that was freely served to all cleaners.

Here is a picture comparison of 1940 and 1960 era Quezon Blvd. So much has changed in 20 years. Streets were almost empty back in the ’40s and have been busy in the ’60s. I’ll post some more pics in the future.
