Federal District Court Judge Alex Munson issued a prelimi­nary injunction to five compa­nies which have been accused of violating federal labor laws.

The order was issued on Tuesday in response to a lawsuit filed by the U .S. Department o f Labor on behalf o f 1 3 5 0 garment factory workers employed in companies owned by garment industry tycoon Willie Tan.

The factory workers alleged that they were not being given overtime compensation and that company representatives were threatening, harassing and in­

timidating those who have filed suit.

The complaint namesTan, his father, Siu Lin and brother Jerry, corporate officers o f American International Knitters Corp., American Investment Corp., Mariana Management Agency, Inc., Pacific Garment Manufac­turing Corp., Pacific Interna­tional C ap ., and L&T Corp. as the respondent to the case.

Instead o f an injunction that will restrain Tan from shipping garments that were allegedly produced in violation o f fair la­bor standards, Munson has or­dered the Tan’s to increase their bond from the original $200,000

to $400,000.The bond was increased to

cover for overtime wages al­legedly due the employees who have worked on the garments that are currently awaiting ship­m ent

The court also ordered that a bank account be opened for each of the employees and that they also be provided detailed infor­mation with regard to their pay­checks.

In addition, the court will ap­point a trustee who will oversee the distribution of paychecks and to become the custodian o f all passports in the possession of the non-resident employees during

The complaint was a result o f aFebruary investigation by fed­eral labor investigator Alan McCann who accused Tan of violating federal labor laws.

Another labor complaint was also filed two weeks ago at the district court by 38 of his em ­ployees.

Their lawsuitalso alleged that they have been deprived o f overtim e com pensation and several other alleged labor vio­lations.

Tan on the other hand, ac­cused McCann o f harassment and o f supplying misleading statements to the U.S. Attorney and a federal grand jury.

In interviews this week, Tan said that he welcomed the com ­plaint and that he was favorable with the decision handed down by the court.

“Now that this thing has gone to court, I do not see a need for a grand jury anymore. It will be an overkill if they still tried to do a federal investigation,” Tan said.

The Supreme Court last Tuesday turned down a pe­tition filed by two Com­monwealth taxpayers that the US Inspector General be denied access to local tax returns.

In a majority decision concurred by Chief Justice Jose S. Dela Cruz and Spe­cial Judge Pedro M. Atalig, the High Court upheld a ruling madeby the Superior Court denying a temporary restraining order and in­junction filed by the tax­payers against the Com­monwealth Government and its Director o f Finance.

Special Judge Larry L. Hillblom, the other judge who entered judgment on the case thought otherwise. Hillblom said he voted for the requested mandamus since this will protect the internal sovereignty o f the NMI and the courts created by the people pursuant to die reserved right o f self- government.

Attorney Robert O ’Con­nor, counsel for petitioners Herman S. Sablan and Antonio Salas had asked the high court to issue a writ o f mandamus in order that the release o f tax records to the Inspector

CUC to disconnect delinquent customersb y Terl M. F lo r es

Delinquent customers who keep ignoring their utility bills may soon find themselves without water,power or sewer on ce the Com m onwealth Utilities Corporation (CUC) begin disconnection anytime this month.

.CUC Executive Director Ramon S. Guerrero said the m assive disconnection will start anytime this August and

will possibly end on September which is the end o f the fiscal year.

Guerrero said that they will not only disconnect the over 90- days delinquent residential cus­tomers but, big businesses who have yet to settle their accounts with the CUC will also be in­cluded in the list.

The CUC Executive Director said in an interview Thursday during the opening o f theCUC’s new payment branch at the Oleai

Plaza in San Jose that they will discoinectdelinquentresidential and commercial customers only after the receiptof the regular 15- day notice based upon CUC’s regulations pertaining to delin­quent clients.

Guerrero first tried discon­necting delinquent customers in early January and according to him, they successfully collected $5 million in deficits.

He said that there is a lot of delinquent customers and al-

thoughhc was notable toprovide information as to how much deficits they may collect this time, the amount is expected to be at least, at par with what the CUC collected in January since big establishments will now be added to the list o f those who will be disconnected.

When askedifRota and Tinian residents w ill be affected by the move,Guerrero said thatitmight be considered once they find a need for it.

A Meeting Place For Our f l d # I V I Opinions. . . And Yours. .

•RmTm'RtAT·L e a rn in g fro m o u r

ow n e x p e r ie n c eThe recent land case involving the issue of whether

persons not of Northern Marianas descent have actually been given the chance to acquire land might have served as eye-opener for some of us.

The respect shown by three brave justices for our constitution by coming out with a landmark decision changed the face of the judicial system which for­merly seemed to find itself helpless in weeding out greed in the land purchase system here in the Com­monwealth.

The Aldan-Pierce vs. Mafnas case has set a prece­dent, since it has strengthened judicial power and decision-making in the CNMI.

It paved way for a reiteration of sorts of what was written in Article XII in our constitution that no non- NMI person must be entitled to own real estate, and that such a prohibition must include those of non-NMI descentwhotry to circumvent our basic laws by using oersons of NMl descent as their dummies to further their own personal interest, and for the acquisition of our most precious, scarcest resource — land.

The case provided some sort of a protection for our local landowners who have no experience whatso­ever in dealing with land matters.

We feel that the decision of the three justices of the High Court — Chief Justice Jose S. Dela Cruz, and Associate Justices Ramon G. Villagomez, and Jesus C. Borja, reversing the 1986 trial court ruling has in one stroke halted further abuses of those who inter­pret the laws for their own convenience and personal aggrandizement.

And not only that, the case likewise “slowed down” a bit the impact of rapid development on our islands, especially since we seem to be dazzled by all the growth we see around us.

This has given us the chance to ponder our next moves, to think and foresee the future.

We see this as an opportunity for our local people to digest whatever sensibility and sanity we have into our ability to plan for what is genuinely good for us and for our people.

To see things to come. To learn what to do. To be prepared.

And most importantly, to be wise enough not to be gypped.

It is widely known that tour­ism is the biggest industry in the Northern Mariana Islands. It is the number one revenue gener­ating sector of the local economy. Its potential for growth is even greater than meets the eye.

But the future growth o f this industry is being threatened by the escalating number of crimes perpetrated against tourists. It brings into focus whose respon­sibility is it to protect our visitor industry from permanent ruin.

It is everybody’s responsibil­ity! Indeed, it is far easier and convenient to pass the buck to the Department of Public Safety. But this m atter b ecom es everybody’s in that the money that is generated from this in­dustry goes into the lo ca l government’s coffers which is subsequently appropriated to fund worthy projects and needs of the Northern Marianas Com­munity.

Let us share in this responsi­bility. Let us join hands and report mischiefs and/or culprits w hose n egative a c tiv itie s threaten the future o f tourism in theNMI. I suppose the relevant and overwhelming query is: Do we want to kill the goose that

lays the golden egg? I am sure w e all know that the answer is “no!”

The Director o f Public Safety and the Marianas Visitors Bu­reau are willing to work with each o f us in the prevention of crime against visitors and other crimes as well. Let’sredirectthe energies o f people who to ran into trouble with the law. Let us exercise our sense o f responsi­bility for only then can we in fact pitch-in to make our islands a safe destination for tourists who com e here to experience that mystical triumvirate: The Sea, Sun and Beach.

folks are into ice (shabu shabu) sends a chill up my spine. I’ve heard talk about why one must take vitamins before sniffing smoke from ice. Whatever the reason for the concurrent use of vitamin supplem ents, I still maintain that the best drag, friends, is no drags at all.

I would hope that every resi­dent in the Northern Marianas Community views the use o f ice as a serious threat to the future of our children. I understand that its use is far more widespread

here than marijuana. If such is the case, every government agency must join in the effort to stem the growth of this health problem from getting out o f proportion.

W e’re quite fortunate that this is a democratic society. There are countries in the Asian Conti- nentwhere penalty is death when convicted of importing and using ice or other lethal substafices. Perhaps I am over-reacting. But I’ve heard some ugly tales of young folks having reached a stage where they even sell their mack wheels and auto-sound system just to beable to purchase ice.

Ithas also become fashionable that in a gathering be it at the beach or elsewhere, one can get a sniff for two dollars. This tells me that this problem has reached a serious stage. We don’t want to see users thrown behind bars. Definitely, however, we want importers and peddlers nailed as soon as possible. Let’s help one another. I simply can imagine th e hospital here being overbooked with people who are made to suffer certain mental disorders or what have you out o f ignorance or otherwise.

Dear EditorI hope you will print this letter

in its entirety to correct, for the public, the false statements made by local media regarding the re­cent audits o f CUC by the Public Auditor’s Office.

The Commonwealth Auditing Act states that at the conclusion o f an audit the preliminary audit and proposed findings shall not be made public prior to the re­ceipt of comments from the auditee. It is a matter o f funda­mental fairness that the auditee is entided to explain or rebut adverse or critical audit findings. In som e cases the agency’s an­swer may clarify questionsraised during the audit or change the preliminary audit findings. It is obvious that what should be made public is only the final audit report which includes the agency’s response to the pre­liminary audit.

Two weeks ago unauthorized and incomplete drafts o f three CUC audits, requested a few months ago by the Senate, were obtained by Saipan Cable and made public. CUC had not seen the audits; they were not even finalized by this office yet, nor

were they sighed by the Public Auditor. Saipan Cable was aware that these were unsigned confi­dential draft reports, yet they chose to run a series o f stories quoting extensively from the re­ports. Among the misstatements made were that the audits “were completed four months ago and have still not been made public” by the Public Auditor. This is irresponsible journalism.

Last Friday, the Marianas Va­riety misquoted me as stating that “official copies o f the audits containing Guerrero’s response and the recommendations and findings by the auditing agency have only been made available to the public as o f this week.” This is not true.

The official preliminary au­dits signed by the Public Auditor were not transmitted to CUC until Wednesday, July 17. Two re­ports were sent at that time, a third one will be transmitted early this week. CUC has until the b egin ning o f - Septem ber to comment on the three audit re­ports.

A total o f 10 inmates has re­cently been considered for pa­role for the month o f July after the Board of Parole found them eligible for a shorter serving of their respective sentences.

In its most recent monthly hearing held last Saturday at Room C o f the Superior Court, the Board granted conditional release to the inmates after most of them were able to complete about a third o f their original sentence.

Vicente T. Camacho, Ramon I. Kapileo, Sorens Meyar, Jesus Taisague Hocog, Juan T ones H ocog, Robert M ettao, Jose CepedaCamacho, Dominic Bias Pangelinan, and P oncian o Okaruru were heard for parole during the hearing.

A tenth inm ate,T hom as Ramangmou was discharged on parole on July 22 ,1991 .

Present during the hearing w ere C hairperson Lupe Manglona, Saipan Board Mem­ber David Omar, Rota Member Lucas M endiola, and Board Secretary Alicia G. Taman. Not present was Tinian member

Segundo Castro.The parolees were convicted

o f various offenses and were serving various sentences at the Division o f Corrections o f the Department o f Public Safety.

V ícente T. Camacho was found guilty o f importation of contra­band and was subsequently sen­tenced to serve one year in jail com m encing last March 25, 1991.

After having served one-third of his term, he became eligible for parole last July 25, 1991 on the condition that he performs 120 hours o f community work service.

Kapileo was convicted o f theft o f a vehicle, driving under the influence o f liquor, and burglary and was ordered incarcerated for six years. Because o f the eight months credit he already served, he was left with a term o f 64 months.

He then became eligible for parole on July 1,1991 after serv­ing one-third of his sentence.

Palauan Meyar, on the other hand, was found guilty o f one count o f Information of Robbery and was sentenced to 5 years, two and a half o f which is sus-

pended.He voluntari ly requested to go

back to Palau, which was granted by the Board on the condition provided he gives a copy of his plane ticket.

Jesus Hocog was paroled on the condition that he should not associate with any co-defendant particularly Juan T. Hocog or any convicted criminal, and to apologize and be friendly with the family of his victim. He was found guilty of Second degree murder and was sentenced to 20 years.

Juan Torres Hocog was like­wise convicted o f second degree murder for the killing of Herman F. Fitial.

After serving 6 years and 8 months o f his original 20-year sentence, he became eligible for parole on July 15,1991.

He was specifically instructed not to associate with co-defen­dant Jesus T. Hocog or any con­victed criminal and to apologize and be friendly to the victim’s family.

C arolinian M ettao was charged of count II, criminal copulation and count III at- tempted rape and was sentenced

to serve each count to 5 years in jail, to run concurrently.

He first becam e e lig ib le for parole in January o f this year but was denied b ecau se the board felt he was not ready yet to be released.

He was paroled on the co n ­dition that he refrains from drinking any kind o f a lc o ­holic beverages, and to m ake a fo llo w -u p c h e c k up o f m ed ica l trea tm en t at the CHC.

Hearings for those being con­sidered for parole are held every last Saturday of the month as long as there are inmates eli­gible.

Inmates are considered eli­gible after they have served one- third o f their jail terms, an if they have maintained good be­havior during their sentences.

The Board is an entity com ­posed of CNMI private citizens empowered by law to grant or revoke parole in the Common­wealth.

A prisons official, who sits in during parole board hearings only acts in an advisory manner and has no control over the deci­sions o f the Board.

C a s in o n e a r s n o d o n f i r s t c a s i n o l i c e n s e eby Teri M. F lo r esThe Tinian Casino Gaming

Control Commission recently named Saipan businessm an Antonio S. Guerrero as one in seven casino license applicants who has satisfied the qualifica­tions set by the Casino Gaming Commission.

The Gam ing C om m ission however, deferred its action on Guerrero’s license application pending the appointment o f an experienced casino operator and the approval o f a plan which identifies the funding for the project.

Guerrero’s application was considered by the Casino Gam­ing Commission upon review of thefirstlicensingreport prepared by the com m ission staff to evaluate the qualifications of Taga Resort and Marine Resort where Guerrero is named as the president, sole shareholder and a director o f both corporations.

The applications of the two corporations have been merged by the Gaming Commission as the corporate ownership o f the two ventures are identical, ac­cording to a press release from the Gaming Commission.

The report scrutin ized Guerrero’s land acquisition on Tinian and his source of funding to finance the land transactions. Based on the findings o f the report, Guerrero’s associate Highness Kosan has qualified as a financial source. Although Kosan’s company has with­drawn from the project, to date, he has lent Guenrero $53 million dollars to purchase land on Tinian.

Guerrero has acquired 52 hectares of private land for the project, the bulk o f which was

leased to Tinian Marine Resort Ltd. The project site is located at Tachungnya Beach which is ap­proximately 1/12 miles south of San Jose Village on Tinian.

The Marianas Land Corpora­tion has approved in concept to lease an additional 50 hectares o f land which is adjacent to the project site.

The entire project which in­cludes two hotels, an 18-hole championship golf course and condominiums along the casi­nos is expected to cost $300 million dollars. The two hotels are expected to be constructed within the next two years.

The report was a result o f an intensive six month investiga­tion into the qualifications o f the six casino license applicants. Further reports are expected in the coming months as the re­maining five applicants still need to fulfill qualification standards set by the Tinian Casino Gam­

ing Act.The report recommended that

Guerrero and three of the five directors of the two companies, Tam otsu Tom inaga, Teruo Segimori and Masatoshi Kanai be licensed as key casino em ­ployees.

In apress release, Guerrero said that such as move shows that the Gaming Commission is following the right direction.

D esp ite the Gam ing Commission’s approval o f three of Guerrero’s executive officers, the report recommended the dis­qualification of Gary Lee Pinkston of California, U.S.A. for his fail­ure to disclose certain business interests. He was also involved in a business that had filed for bankruptcy and commission of­ficials also found that he had provided misleading information.

Although Pinkston was an “important consultant to the project and was originally named

as an officer and a director, his role in the project ceased on May 28,1991,” according to a press release from Guerrero’s office.

Guerrero is seriously consid­ering Sheraton and two other in­ternationally known hotel casino operators. ITT Sheraton currently has 500 hotels in 64 countries and has been in operation since 1937. In the Asia Pacific region, the company operates 34 hotels and it has also successfully operated a hotel-casino in Townsville, Aus­tralia since 1986.

Christopher Bachran,' vice- president and director o f devel­opment of ITT Sheraton said that he is eager to continue to develop his company’s relationship with Guerrero’s companies.

A recommendation was also made on certain measures that could be accomplished to achieve financial stability. Also included in the report were proposed con­ditions that should be imposed on

the two Guerrero-owned compa­nies upon the issuance of a casino license.

The report is a result of an in­tensive six month investigation into the qualifications of the ap­plicants. Kroll and Associates, an international corporate investiga­tion firm and the Japan offices of the Arthur Andersen & Co. ac­counting firm assisted the con­sultants, attorneys and thd ac­countant of the Commission dur­ing the investigation.

Gaming Commission Chairman John U. Hofschneider said that the report is “another milestone as Tinian moves closer top estab­lishing itself as a first class desti­nation casino gaming resort.”

A hearing date w ill be set by the com m ission to d iscuss the finding and recom m en­dations contained in the re­port upon w hich a final d e­cision on the application w ill be made.

CUC's G uerrero tells solons: "We need sew er funds now"b y R a fa e l H . A r r o y o

CUC E xecutive D irector Ramon S. Guerrero recently urged the legislature to immedi­ately enact an appropriation of $8 million needed by the corpo­ration to remedy the problem of untreated sewage at Agingan Point Sewage Treatment Plant.

Transmitting official copies of an administrative order is­sued by the United States Envi­ronmental Protection Agency, Guemero exhorted lawmakers to immediately respond by pass­ing the supplemental budget act, which contains appropriation for a sewer project.

The Corporation is currently in urgent need of funding in or­

der that it may be able to comply with the order, which came out after the EPA found the Agingan Plant violating provisions of its National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System permit.

Specifically, the Agingan STP was found to have allegedly vio­lated effluent limitations on biological oxygen demand, sus­pended solids and settleable sol­ids.

It also failed to comply with discharge monitoring reporting requirements, and has allowed the partial bypassing o f treated wastewater to marine waters.

Writing a letter to Senator Juan S. Torres, Guerrero asked for legislative action in order that appropriations are set to enable

the CUC to award a contractor to facilitate the construction of a 3- million-gallons-a-day treatment plan.

L egislators are currently deadlocked on the passage o f the supplemental budget act appar­ently because o f differences on what projects have to be priori­tized.

A C onference Com m ittee composed of senators and House representatives was created to come up with a compromise that would be suitable for both houses of Congress.

Originally, an $8 million ap­propriation was agreed upon by the Committee for the Agingan project, but was later on reduced to $4 million, allegedly due to

the addition of two other appro­priations — the Talafofo Water project and the purchase o f boats for the use o f the Northern Is­lands.

Guerrero’s letter was meant to convince those in the Commit­tee about the seriousness o f the sewage overflow that is being dumped into the sea, and to re­vert the appropriation back to the $8 million originally re­quested for the southern sewage system.

“My office is desperately try­ing to tell our legislators the im­portance o f this matter that must be resolved before an epidemic occurs. I understand that our government has other important issues to deal with but I believe that nothing is more urgent and important than a crisis that is about to happen,” Guerrero said.

The CUC Chief added that while he respects the Adminis­tration in its water priorities for the Talafofo water studies, he sees that the project will take several years to accomplish, un­less the government has $32 million ready.

He contended that while CUC might not have water available in some areas (if the Talafofo project is not prioritized), there is hope in getting water in those areas, with whatever funding available.

“I can assure the legislature that there is no foreseeable epi­demic in the availability o f wa­ter, but we have a serious prob­lem at hand with untreated sewage at Agingan. This is al­ready contaminating our sea, our fish, and other edible harvest that our seas provide for human con­sumption and at the same time, scare our tourism industry away from the Northern Marianas,” Guerrero maintained.

“I will rest my case here but I want every legislator to know

that those sewage overflows that we see getting to our main roads are causes of unexpected major developments in infrastructure which the CUC must immedi­ately address to upgrade our lift station island-wide,” he added.

On the other hand, Senator Torres said that he will not stop “pestering” the House conferees in order that the sewage problem would be seriously addressed.

According to the senates', he believes that it was either some people in the Committee do not realize the urgency o f the Agingan situation, or perhaps they just opt to abide with what­ever position the governor takes on the matter.

“I talked with Bill Hogreweof CUC’s Sewer Division at my office and he updated me on the problem. I even went to look for some House conferees so they can all sit down and discuss the problem butl saw no one,” Torres said in an interview with the Marianas Variety.

The senator, apparently dead set on having the $8 million allo­cation passed by the legislature, is currently arranging for a meeting where Ray Guerrero may be able to talk with mem­bers of both the Senate and the House in order that they may be briefed on the problem.

, He lamented that the execu­tive branch seem to consider the Northern Islands sea craft pur­chase and the Talafofo Projects more pressing priorities. “I am disappointed that the governor doesn’t see the Agingan sewage problem as it should be seen,” Torres said.

“This problem will affect the lives and health of our people aside from the fact that it may also jeopardize our tourism in­dustry.”

South Pacific Forum criticizes French nuclear testing

POHNPEI, FSM (AP) - The 15 nation South Pacific Forum on Tuesday sharply criticized French nuclear testing and called for immediate cuts in emissions o f “greenhouse gases.”

A communique issued at the end o f the two-day annual sum­mit expressed “deep dismay” withFrance for its continued nuclear testing in French Polynesia, even after joining the N u c lea r N on-P roliferation Treaty.

“In this regard, the forum agreed to give consideration to an expanded program o f opposi­tion to France’s nuclear testing in the region,” the statement said, without specifying any particu­lar action.

The forum, meeting halfway between the Philippines and Hawaii (Hi the island o f Pohnpei, stressed the urgency o f securing international commitments “to control the adverse effects of climate change.”

Low-lying islands like forum members Tuvalu, Kiribati and some o f the Marshall Islands could become uninhabitable if ocean levels rise from the green­house effect, as many scientists predict.

The communique called for “significant and immediate re­ductions in emissions o f indus­trially generated greenhouse gases, particularly carbon diox­ide.”

It said industrialized nations were primarily responsible and should give high priority to in­creasing energy efficiency and developing alternative energy sources.

The forum praised Paris’ ef­forts to bring “peaceful evolu­tion to self-determination” in the French territory o f new Caledonia. But friction was evi­dent before the final communi­que was drafted.

On Monday, Fiji Prime Min­ister Sir Ratu Kamisese Mara, the group’s official spokesman,

said the forum wanted to send a delegation to N ew Caledonia each year to monitor implemen­tation o f the Matignon Accords. The 1988 pact set up a 10-year process leading to a referendum on self determination and ended fighting between European set­tlers and independence-minded indigenous Kanaks.

B ut French governm ent spokesman Louis Le Pen sec re­buffed the proposal on Tuesday, say in g it w as up to N ew Caledonians to monitor devel­opments.

The forum, in its 14 page com- m unique, a lso condem ned driftnet fishing that threatens regional fish stocks and reaf­firmed its wish that the United States live up to its commitment to dismantle its chemical-weap­ons incineration plant at Johnston Atoll.

Mara said the forum chastised Washington for “inadequate” consultations before the de- structionproject was undertaken.

The forum also:-expressed concern over con­

tinuing economic problems fac­ing many members and said priority should be given to im­proving higher education and vocational training.

-called for increased regional cooperation in fighting drug trafficking and other crime.

-endorsed applications by the Federated States o f Micronesia and the Marshall Islands, both former U.S. trust territories, for admission to the United Nations.

-chose former Kiribati Presi­dent Ieremia Tabia as the next secretary-general o f its Secre­tariat to replace departing Henry Naisali.

The forum groups Australia and N ew Zealand with Fiji, Papua New Guinea, the Feder­ated States o f Micronesia, the Solomon Islands, the Marshall Islands, Niue, Nauru, Tonga, the Cook Islands, Vanuatu, Western Samoa, Kiribati and Tuvalu.

Gov't, agencies adopt "Flextime" schedule

b y T e r i M„ F lo re sGovernment agencies in the

CNMI will start maintaining longer hours o f operation once the “Flextime” schedule is im­plemented.

The program which gives the em ployee the flex ib ility to choose workhours was launched on Tuesday by Gov. Larry I. Deleon Guerrero and Personnel Officer Jesus Mafnas.

The Personnel Office adopted the new working hours on Mon­day and Guerrero said that the program will not only ensure improved and efficient service but it will also give the public more access to governm ent

agencies.The scheme will make it pos­

sible for employees to report to work by 7:30 a.m., while those who opt to report to work in a later hour will serve until 6 p.m.

The new schedule will also allow the Personnel Office to remain open during lunchtime and after the normal working hours.

Mafnas said his office under­took to implement the program not only to help the public but also to increase the employee’s morale.

Guerrero said the program wi) · also help minimize traffic con­gestion particularly during the

Flextime was recommended by the Saipan Chamber of Com­merce in 1985. Later, a task force pursued the proposal which Guerrero would like to see implemented in other g o v ­ernment agencies as well.

Statistics show that for every pay period, the government loses $35,000 a month due to non­p roductivity. The im p le­mentation o f the new schedule will save the treasury a large amount of money, Mafnas said.

Priority projects to be drawn for fed grants

b y R a f a e l H . A r r o y o

The Department o f Environ­mental Quality and the Sewer Division o f the Commonwealth Utilities Corporation are cur­rently in the process o f identify­ing which particular projects would make up a priority list that would be given federal funding by theUnited States Government.

A public hearing has been scheduled August 28 , 1991 whereby the two agencies will discuss and present the Fiscal Year 1992 Federal Construction Grants to the general public for review and comments.

Under the Clean Water Act, the US Government, through the US Environmental Protection Agency, provides construction grants for wastewater improve­ment projects, sewer lines and sewage plants rehabilitation projects.

These construction grants are federal monies provided by the EPA for the programs included ip the priority list drawn up by both CUC and the DEQ.

US Congress has ceased to implement construction grants programs nationwide in 1990, but the CNMI was awarded an extension of the program for fis­cal years 1990 and 1991. How­ever, it was still uncertain if giants will be available for 1992.

According to a notice issued by DEQ ChiefF. Russel Mechem II, this uncertainty has made the identification of priority projects on the list especially important this year since the CUC Sewer Division will be left to be more dependent on local appropria­tions for funding.

Machem in an interview said that the public hearing will be held in order that inputs from the public and other concerned

“I know we need water here in the Commonwealth. But what is more important, adequate water or the health o f our people,” he asked.

“I’m very serious about this, and am considering arranging for a possible Conference Com­mittee meeting in order that this issue may be tackled,” the sena­tor said.

Headded, "After Ray guerrero talked with the Conferees, and still they won't listen, and the problem worsens, my conscience is clear. They should be held responsible."

agencies may be heard in formu­lating the composition o f the pri­ority list.

“W e have to identify the projects that need funding from the US government as against those which can be taken care of with local allocations, since fed­eral funds are not enough to solve a ll our sew er p rob lem s,” Mechem said.

The DEQ Chief pointed out that the important thing is to set priorities so that one or two projects can be in place for FY 1992.

Currently, the balance avail­able for projects under the con­struction grants program is esti­mated to be $2.4 million. This is apart from the rehabilitation project ongoing for the Tanapag and San Roque sewer lines which is budgeted at around $1.2 mil­lion.

“Basically, our division pro­vides ‘regualtory oversight’ in the preparation o f the priority list for projects o f this type. We sit with the CUC to identify them,” Mechem added.

C ited a cr iter ia for prioritization are: that the project must show a pressing need for the sewage collection treatment; the project must fall within the scope o f budget; and it must be primarily aimed at existing resi­dential areas.

It was also pointed out that construction grants are not in­tended to accomodate future growth or expansion on sewage systems for the Commonwealth.

“We focus only on what is the pressing environmental need in the system. The grant is only for the rehabilitation o f existing fa­cilities and is not meant to fund expansion,” he asserted.

PUBLIC NOTICEThe Division of Environmental Quality (DEQ) will be

holding a public hearing in conjunction with the Commonwealth Utilities Corporation (CUC), Sewer Division, on Wednesday, August 28,1991, at 7:00p.m„ at theGarapan Elementary School. At this hearing, DEQ and CUC will discuss and present the Construction Grants Priority List for the Fiscal year 1992 to the general public for review and comments.

Construction Grants arc federal monies provided by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) to fund major sewer projects in the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands (CNMI). The U.S. Congress tended Construction Grant Program nationwide in 1990. Fortunately, the CNMI was awarded an extension of the grant program for fiscal years 1990 and 1991. However, it is uncertain that grants will be available for fiscal year 1992.

Therefore, the FY-1992 Priority List is especially im­portant ill is year since CUC Sewer Division will be more de­pendent on local appropriations. The Priority LisL is the annual ranking of sewage projects based on health and population factors, required for all projects that may be eligible for federal landing.

The government and legislative representatives as well as die general public are encouraged to attend and comment on funding priorities, project ranking and allocations planned for FV-92.

Dated this 19th day of July, 1991./s/F. RUSSELL MECHEM II, Chief Division of Environmental Quality

Governor chides solon on budget measureb y T e n M . F lo r e sThe Legislature has yet to act

on the passage o f the sup­plemental budget and apparent delay has already caused Gover­nor Larry I. Deleon Guerrero to issue a warning to the lawmak­ers.

“If the Legislature does not immediately appropriate the $42 million in revenues I have iden­tified, I will begin spending money under emergency pow­ers granted to me by the Consti­tution,” Guerrero stated in a July 31 letter to the presiding officers o f the legislature.

Guerrero further expressed his frustration over the lawmakers inaction on the supplemental budget which he had submitted on February 1 o f this year in a press conference on Tuesday held in his office on Capitol Hill.

“The legislature better get their act together,” Guerrero said on Tuesday.

The supplem ental budget originally amounted to $34 mil­

lion however, on July 9, the amount was raised to $42 mil­lion when the Governor submit­ted an additional $8 million in surplus money which had been identified by the Office o f Plan­ning and Budgetand the Depart­ment o f Finance.

Guerrero informed Senate President Joseph Inos and House Speaker Pedro R. Guerrero that m oney is already available however, the lawmakers have yet to approve it before the amount can be expedited.

“Money is needed and there is an amountalready available yet, the supplemental appropriations bill have yet to be passed,” Guerrero said.

There were strong indications a week ago that the supplemen­tal budget will eventually be passed however the Senate and House conferees failed to agree on the issue o f the sewer col­lection system appropriation.

Although an agreement has already been reached between

the two Houses and a draft o f the bill was already being finalized, com m ittee m em bers sub­sequently found that some por­tions o f Section 104 were unilat­erally altered.

Senator Juan S. Torres and his group changed their minds when they reviewed that sewer appro­priations have been cut into half and that there w ill only be a $4 million allocation for both the Central and Southeastern Saipan.

Torres and his group found the reduction unacceptable par­ticularly when they learned that the project will entail an amount of $16 million.

House Conference Commit­tee member William C. Ada however said that the delay was due to the disagreement of the solons in the allocation of re­sources for Saipan, Rota and Tinian.

Ada said that the disagreement stemmed from the allocation of personnel requests was brought up by each of the three districts.

Reyes said that no one was injured in the incident that was reported at about 4:41 p.m. on Monday.

In other news:*A Filipino contract worker

employed by Sablan Construc­tion was rushed to the Common­wealth Health Center Tuesday afternoon after he was shot by a stray bullet believed to be from an air rifle.

Initial reports indicate that Dewayen was clearing land near the Sablan Const, barracks in San Antonio when he felt some­thing hit his shoulder.

Reyes said that upon discov­ering Dewayen may be hurt, Catalina Borja immediately transported him to the hospital

where he was later treated and released.

A continuing investigation is being conducted by the police. No arrests have been made.

*Several missing items in­cluding casette tapes and elec­tronic gadgets which were re­portedly stolen from Thai House store two months ago were con­fiscated by the police in an abandoned shack in San Anto­nio on Tuesday.

Toys can aid learning, says teacherb y T e r i M . F lo r e s

More often than not, parents buy the toys that their children ask for. Although parents often bear in mind the fun their chil­dren will have in playing, they should also consider the educa­tional value of the toy to their children.

Sharon Robbins, a teacher in one o f the local schools on the island, has been working with children for the past several years. In her experience, Robbins said that toys do have an impact in the way a child learns.

“Toys do not only give chil­dren fun and enjoyment but, they also help them learn the funda­mental skills o f reading and un­derstanding the complexities of life,” Robbins said.

As ateacher, Robbins has seen children improve their cogni­tive reasoning and basic motor skills through play. She said that children may tire o f sitting in one comer listening to a teacher read however, when faced with a number of toys, they easily respond to what their teachers are trying to teach them.

Studies also show that parents should also involve themselves in a child’s play. “Whatever children see, they imitate and when they see that their parents are having fun teaching them, they are more encouraged to

leam,” Robbins said.In her experience as a teacher,

R obbins has observed that “gifted” children belong to a family whose parents were in­volved in every aspect o f the child’s growth, whether it be play or some other activity that en­courages family participation.

In her short period o f stay on the island, Robbins found that although toy sections in de­partment stores on the island has a wide array of toys for all the members o f the family, there are only a few educational toys that can be availed of.

Robbins recently started a toy business where parents can avail o f educational toys at reasonable prices. The toys have been se­lected by a group o f educational specialists and the designs were selected from toymakers all over the globe.

They are made of sturdy du­rable plastic and may teach chil­dren the stimulation, muscle coordination to the basic rudi­ments of the numbers and the alphabets to more com plex games catered to older children.

Robbins held her first toy show at the Carolinian Utt last Satur­day and she said that she plans to do some more shows in the near. future.

She said that schools and par­ents can also organize their own toy shows not only as fundraising

Taxicab industry bill approved

A bill to regulate the taxicab industry in the Commonwealth (H.B. 7-191) was signed into law last Wednesday by Gov. Larry I. De Leon Guerrero ac­cording to news release from CNS. In a short ceremony at his office attended by several offic­ers of the taxicab industry, Gov. Guerrero said he hopes there would be uniformity in rates for all places for tourists and resi­dents alike.

In a letter to the Presiding Officers o f the Seventh Legisla­ture, the governor stated: “The ever-growing tourist industry and the increase in population mandates the regulating o f transportation service provided by taxicabs to our visitors and residents. The legislation will augment the safety for the visi­tors and residents, as well as provide a first-rate taxicab in­dustry.”

In passing the legislation, the Legislature finds it necessary and beneficial “to regulate the taxi­cab industry in order to provide safe, clean, and dependable transportation to the guest and residents o f the Com m on­wealth.”

The new law will, the CNS release said, among otherthings, establish a Taxicab Bureau within the Department of Fi­nance which will promulgate rules and regulations, adopt a

schedule o f taxicab fare estab­lishing mandatory fares for all hires o f taxicab, and establish mandatory metering procedures. Meters shall be installed and operable in each individual taxi­cab within 90 days o f the effec­tive date o f the law. It will require all taxicabs to be insured under a general or public liabil­ity policy o f insurance, and mandates that applicants for a taxicab driver’s license must be a citizen o f the U.S. or any other territory under the administra­tion o f the U.S. and a bona fide resident o f the Commonwealth.

US District Courtthreats McCann made last Feb­ruary almost came true on Fri­day when labor officials asked the court to restrain his compa­nies from shipping merchandise for export to other countries.

Tan and his family have been involved in the garment industry for the past eight years and, ac­cording to him, this is the first time that they have been deluged by several labor suits.

He also denied several allega­tions made by several com ­plainants in a similar lawsuit in­cluding the unreasonable de-

■ a Continued from pag· 1ducrions on the food and housing provisions as well as the alleged threats and harassment made by company officials.

He said that all the deductions m ade are reflected in the employee’s pay stubs and that company officials had never threatened or harassed any o f his employees.

Tan’s businesses involves 2,000 workers o f which the ma­jority come from Mainland China while the rest ate Filipinos and local residents.

High Court,General may be blocked.

The writ o f mandamus is be­ing sought after the IG indicated an auditon theCommonwealth’s incom e tax returns, including those o f petitioners.

C iting a provision in the Commonwealth Code that pro­hibits the disclosure o f their tax returns and return information to any person, including the United Statesgovemmentor any o f its agencies, the petitioners filed a complaint for declaratory and injunctive relief against the CNMI government and the Fi­nance Director.

The trial court last July 10 denied the temporary restraining order that would have provided immediate relief, since the audit was reportedly about to take place.

Petitioners were concerned that if the IG performs the in­tended audit, their individual tax returns and return information would be disclosed to the IG in violation o f the Commonwealth Code.

In its three-page decision, the Superior Court determined that the lawsuit was in essence one to enjoin the enforcement o f 48 U.S .C. Section 1681 (b), through which federal statute the IG had announced its intention to con­duct an audit o f the Commonwealth’s assessm ent and collection o f income taxes.

Since any injunction ordered against the defendants has a di­rect bearing on the asserted statutory duty o f the IG to audit the defendants, the trial court ruled that the IG is an indis­pensable party to the action and must be joined

“Failure to do so dictates a denial o f plaintiffs application for a restraining order or injunc­tion,” the trial court argued.

In concurring with the trial court’s decision, the Supreme Court clarified that one seeking mandanus must show that the lower court order is clearly erro­neous.

In their decision, Dela Cruz and Atalig ruled that “the rem­edy o f mandamus is a drastic one, to be involved only in ex­traordinary situations.”

The decision also argued that only exceptional circumstances amounting to a “judicial usurpa­tion o f power” will justify the invocation of this extraordinary remedy.

Also, Dela Cruz and Atalig

Continued from page 1said that petitioners presumed that the government, upon request by theIG would voluntarily turnover the tax documents.

Both the Chief Justice and the Special Judge said that “there has been no showing that the gov­ernment or its finance director will breach the non-disclosure provision of the Code.

The High Court lik ew ise agreed with the government’s response to the petition for man­damus that the IG’s announce­ment is one to conduct a “per­formance audit” and that the an­nouncement “does not express an intention to audit Common­wealth income tax returns or tax information.”

During oral argument, the Commonwealth government ap­parently informed the high court that the IG is presently reviewing Commonwealth government’s concern with respect to the non­disclosure provision of the stat­ute.

“Whetherthose concerns would ultimately be addressed by the IG so as not to violate4 CMC Section 1701 (d) is not yet known. For now it is premature to presume other­wise,” the Supreme Court order read.

Differing with the two other judges on the panel, Hillblom that the temporary restraining order and the injunction shouldnothavebeen denied.

He argued that under the “Cov­enant that created the Common­wealth of the NMIin political union with the US...”, there is no federal authority or basis for federal scru­tiny o f local tax returns.

According to the dissenting judge, intrusion by US govern­ment officials into therelationship between CNMI taxpayers and the CNMI government would be an intrusion on the concept of self- government, as guaranteed by the Covenant.

It was also said that the right of individual taxpayers to confiden­tiality regarding their tax retfirns is protected in the CNMI by specific statute and by all citizens’ consti­tutional right to privacy.

“The information in the returns of the petitioners belongs to the taxpayer and is not an account of (or belonging to) the CNMI. Such individual return information is, thus, not available to the Inspector General under 48 U.S.C. Section 1681(b). Thus, the statute does not apply,” Hillblom said.

Boy Scouts launch road signs projects

by Terl M. Flores

Boy Scouts from troops 903 of San Vicente and 907 o f San Antonio and KoblerviUe have launched a project that will see the improvement o f road signs located in 11 areas on the island.

The latte stone marks indi­cating village boundaries was set up by the Saipan Chamber of Commerce about two years ago and the scouts are currently re­painting them as part o f their community-service programs.

The project is being under­taken by the scouts in coordi­nation with the Rotary Club of

Saipan, Saipan Chamber o f Commerce and Sablan Con­struction.

Cal Reyes o f the Boy Scouts o f America Saipan Chapter said that the project is one way of extending their help to the community.

“ It is a lso our w ay o f extending our gratitude to two c iv ic organizations, the R otary and the C ham ber, w ho have been supportive o f all our p rogram s,” R ey es said.

The scouts are expected to finish painting the latte stone signs within two w eeks tim e.

Government lifts ban on Imelda return

MANILA, (AP) - The Philip­pine government W ednesday lifted its five-year ban on the return oflmeldaM arcos and said the widow o f the late President Ferdinand Marcos was free to com e home from exile in the United States.

In announcing the decision, presidentialExecutive Secretary Franklin Drilon said the ban on the body o f the late president, who died in September 1989 in Hawaii, would remain in force.

Drilon added that tax fraud charges would be filed against Mrs. Marcos and her three chil­dren by Thursday. They would be the first criminal charges filed by the Philippines against the family o f the late president since Marcos was ousted in the 1986 “people power revolution” that propelled President Corazon Aquino to power.

“Effective today, the Repub­lic o f the Philippines will inter­pose no objection to the return to the P h ilip p in es o f Im elda Marcos, her children. . . and her grandchildren,” Drilon said.

“The Philippine government will request die united States to withdraw th e . . . departure con­trol orders to allow Im elda Marcos, her children and her grandchildren to return to the Philippines,” Drilon said.

He said the Philippine consul general in N ew York would be told to issue “one-way” travel documents to allow Imelda and her family to return.

Drilon said there would be no restrictions placed on Mrs. Marcos and that she would be

free to run for president if she wished in the May 1992national elections.

Drilgn said that in addition to the tax cases, the government would file charges by Oct. 20 in connection with millions o f dol­lars the Marcos family allegedly stashed in Swiss bank accounts.

The Swiss Federal Court has ruled that the money cannot be returned to the Philippines un­less criminal charges are filed here by December.

“W e are also warning any group that may want to use her return for political purposes against creating disturbances or starting activities intended to disturb the state of. stability of the country,” Drilon said.

“This option is being under­taken so that justice will take its due course and in the hope that with the return and prosecution o f Imelda Marcos, the Philip­pines will be ridding itself fi­nally o f the remaining ghost of the dictatorship.”

The announcement was made one day after the government confirm ed it had asked the United States to extend by one- year a ban on allowing Mrs. Marcos or her husband’s body to leave the country. The ban expires Oct. 1.

Marcos died in exile in Ha­waii mi Sept. 28, 1989 while underaU.S.federal racketeering indictment

Imelda went on trial the fol­lowing year, but was acquitted o f all charges by a federal jury in New York in July 1990.

V. THE GENERAL RULES OF A COURTROOM

A courtroom is where a judge sits and listens to the evidence and arguments o f counsel. It is a place where the “truth” is be­ing sought so that a just decision be rendered. It can therefore be said that a courtroom is just like a church. It is a solemn place. If you are in a courtroom you must observe the certain general rules. Among them are as follows:

1. N o talking: Do not speak unless you are asked to do so.

2. N o food or drinks: Do not drink or eat in a courtroom. Chewing gum or betelnut is also prohibited.

3. No smoking: Smoking is also prohibited.

4. N o horsing around: You cannot laugh or do anything that may disrupt a hearing. If you do, the court may find you in con­tempt and you may go to jail.

5. No unsupervised children: If you bring your child, make sure that he/she keeps still in the courtroom. If an infant starts to cry, please take him/her out of the courtroom. The best way to avoid problems with children is to leave them at home.

6. Slamming of doors: As' you enter or leave the court­room, you should close the door slowly. Do not slam it.

VI. THE COURT-ROOM SET-UP

As you enter our courtrooms, you will generally see that the front portion is carpeted and the back is not. The carpeted por­tion have the following:

1. Counsel tables: This is where lawyers and their clients sit. The right side is where plaintiffs/complainants sit and on the left side is where defen­dants/respondents sit. If you are neither, do not sit here.

2. Jury Box: This is where jurors sit in either a criminal or civil matter as “judges of the facts”. If you are not a juror, you cannot sit here.

3. Witness Box: This is where a witness testifies from. Do not sit here unless you are called as a witness. The Deputy Clerk will call your name when the time comes for you to testify.

4. Bench: This is where the judge and the deputy clerk sit.

Right behind the tables where attorneys are seated you will see a wooden divider. This divider is called the “bar”. When an auomcy is permitted to practice law in a jurisdiction, it is said that he is “admitted to the bar”, that is, he is permitted to enter beyond this divider and address the court.

The remaining portion o f a courtroom is filled with benches. This is where the general public is permitted to sit and observe a hearing. If you do not know where to sit, sit here.

VII. YOU AS A WITNESS

When you receive a witness summons, it is recommended that you call the party who subpoe­naed you as a witness. Find out why you are being subpoenaed and the type o f questions you will be asked in court. I also recommend that you call at least a day before the hearing to find out whether the hearing has been postponed or cancelled.

On the day o f the hearing, a party may ask the judge to have all witnesses “excluded” from the courtroom. This means that all persons who are going to tes­tify in acase mustremain outside the courtroom unless they are called to testify. The purpose of this rule is to have people testify as to what they know and not what they’ve heard (especially from other witnesses).

When you are called, proceed to the witness box and remain

'standing. Raise your right hand because the deputy clerk will first administer the oath. The deputy clerk will ask you; “Do you solemnly swear to tell the truth, the whole truth and noth­ing but the truth in connection with the case no being heard, so help you God?” Your response should be “I will.”

After you have taken the oath, then you can sit down and wait for the questions. Remember, you only answer the questions you are asked and nothing else.

The lawyer who calls you as a witness will first ask you ques­tions. This is called direct ex­amination o f a witness. When he is finished, the other lawyer will then ask you questions. This is called cross-examination of a witness. Depending on your tes­timony, a re-dirqet or re-cross examination may be permitted. Also, the judge may ask you questions.

When a question is asked of you and you do not know the answer, say no. Do not try to guess the answer. When you do not understand the question, do not be ashamed to ask that the question be repeated until you fully understand it. And, if you do not understand the English language, let the court know. The questions may be translated in the language you understand.

Rem em ber to speak loud enough so that everyone can hear you. If the judge/jury cannot hear you, then you just wasted everybody’s time. Also, re­member to tell the truth. If you lie to a material fact, you may go to jail for perjury (lying under oath).

VIII. YOU AS A DEFEN­DANT

If you are in court for the first time as a defendant in a criminal/ traffic case, you have certain rights under the laws o f the Commonwealth. .

First, unless you are charged with First Degree Murder, you

have the right to be released on bail. The main purpose o f bail is to ensure your presence in court. The court must take into ac­count (a) the nature and cir­cum stances o f the charges against you; (b) the weight of the evidence against you; (c) your ability to post bail; and, (d) your character. M oney or property may constitute a bail. In non-serious cases, the court may release you on your personal recognizance (promise to ap­pear) or to a third person (third party release).

Second, you have the right to be represented by a lawyer. If you are “indigent” (poor), the court will appoint a lawyer to represent you free-of-charge. The Public Defender’s Office is generally appointed to represent indigent defendants.

Third, you have the right to remain silent. You need not make a statement because if you do, the statement may be used as evidence against you.

Fourth, you will be given rea­sonable time to consult with a lawyer and to prepare for your defense.

Fifth, if bail is set and you remain in custody, you have the right within ten (10) days to have a preliminary hearing (a hearing where the government presents evidence to show that there is probable cause to believe that you have com m itted the charge(s) against you.)

If you are a defendant in a civil case, your attorney will advise you what to do and what not to do. Since there is no constitutional right to be repre­sented by an attorney in a civil matter, you should hire your own lawyer. You should not try to defend yourself, especially in complex matters.

A Marianas High School stu­dent is spending her summer vacation in Hilo, Hawaii as the CNMI’s representative to the 13th annual Hawaii - Student Science Training Program. At theUniversity o f Hawaii in Hilo.

Ji-Hyun Cho is one of 32 par­ticipants who have been selected to join an enrichment program designed to present the rudiments o f calcu lus-p hysics to high ability high school students from the Mainland, Japan, Guam and the Commonwealth.

Ji-Hyun Cho of M HS

The seven week resident pro­gram began on June 17 and is expected to end tomorrow. The program consists of lectures, physics laboratory, computer programming, languages, réci­tation-discussions, field trips to observatories and installations and research projects under the supervision of working scien­tists and a mathematician.

Four VHH faculty and one visiting faculty serve as program instructors while four counsel­ors and tutors and a laboratory assistantall of whom are program alumni who also assist the stu­dents in their needs. Students who were in financial need were assisted by the friends of Hawaii -SSTP.

One o f the highlights of the program was the early morning excursion to the 10,000 ft. level of Mauna Loa on July 1 were the participants observed and gath­ered scientific data on the total solar eclipse. The students did not only view the complete se­quence o f the eclipse but, they also had the chance to see nature’s most spectacular phe­nomena.

This early, the students are already planning a reunion for next summer.

Sablan onMIHA’sGarapanassets:“We needfunds”

by Rafael H. Arroyo

The Mariana Islands Housing Authority indicated that it will support the provision for the existing site o f the Garapan El­ementary School to benefit the Public School System if the legislature would only assist the Authority in its bid for financial recovery.

This was the gist o f the state­ment recently issued by MIHA Executive Director Juan M. Sablan in response to a letter dated July 16 sent by Rep. Stanley T. Torres.

Torres was asking the MIHA Board of Directors to approve the granting of a deed to the PSS for that public land which Garapan Elementary School presently occupies.

The House Committee Chair­man on Health, Education and Welfare made the request to provide the Board o f Education and the PSS the security need for long range facility and operations planning.

It was noted that a deed for such property would better en­able the Board o f Education to fulfill their constitutional duty to exercisecontrol over thepublic school.

“Without such a deed, the public school may at som e time in the future find itself in a pre­carious situation with regards to serving the elementary students in the Garapan area,” Tones said.

According to Torres, it is very important for elementary school children to have a public school available to them within a rea­sonable distance from their homes.

Garapan Elementary School has been observed to be centrally located and fairly accessible for most o f its students.

“Although I realize the rela­tively high economic value of the property there; there is also a social value and educational importance to the school and campus that is much more diffi­cult to quantify, but much less valuable in their own terms,” the congressman said in his letter to MIHA Board Chairman Joaquir Q. Atalig.

On the other hand, Sablan in­dicated a willingness to transfei the deed for the school’s presem site, but countered that MIHA must be provided with othei property in exchange.

Sablan indicated that the au thority has been working closelj with the Marianas Public Lane Corporation to effect a land ex change program for the Garapai

Lu ce foundation aw ards M icronesian Institute $ 20,000

The Micronesian Institute has been awarded a $20,000 grant from the Henry Luce Founda­tion Inc. to “support the further developmentof the Micronesian Endowment for Historic Pres­ervation this was announce by Henry Luce III, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer o f the foundation.

The young, non-profit En­dowment was created “to pre­serve M icronesian culture through the protection o f cus­toms and historical sites and through traditional education.” Incorporated in 1985 in Majuro, republic o f the Marshall Islands, the Endow m ent uniquely encom passes the fam ily o f Micronesian peoples, crossing political and national bound­aries.

The Luce Foundation grant will be used by the Micronesia Institute, guided by Endowment officers and advisors, to en­courage the establishment o f an American National Committee for the Endowment. It will also be used to initiate approaches to foundations, corporations and governments for substantial grants to the Endowment and to enable the Endowment officers to participate in major in­ternational conferences when other funds are not yet available to Micronesians.

The goal is a fund o f at least $5 million at the termination of the Compact of Free Associa­tion with the Federated State of Micronesia and the Republic Of uie Marshall Islands. The fund will be of use so that the FSM and the Marshalls may continue programs in historic preserva­tion despite the potential cut-off o f US funds.

It is also aimed at preserving the programs at the Republic o f Palau whose political status is still unsolved and that Guam and the Northern Marianas may grow. The fund is managed by Kidder Peabody Jnc.

Historic Preservation Offic­ers of the different Micronesian areas have been named as offic­ers and directors o f the Endow­m ent FSM-HPO Teddy John has been named as president while CNMI ’ s M chael Fleming was appointed as the vice- president.

Secretary o f the Interior and Outer Island Affairs o f the RMI Carmen B igler is the Endowment’s treasurere while the secretary is Victoria Kanai of Palau.

Other directors include BerminSigrahofKosrae; FSM, Emensio Eperiam, Pohnpei; FSM, Elvis Killion O ’Sonnis, Truk State, FSM; Andrew Kugfas, Yap State, FSM; Rich­ard Davis of Guam. It is hoped

that the HPO’s o f Kiribati and Nauru will later become part o f the Micronesian Endowment

The Endowment was formed in conjunction w ith the Micronesian Institute which serves as its U.S. associated or­ganization. Thomas King, PhD, consultant and formerly with the President’s Advisory Council on Historic Preservation, is acting as pro-bono Washington D.C. representative to assist in the creation o f the American Na­tional Committee.

Private supporting commit­tees in each region will be formed once the Endowment Fund has grown sufficiently. The Endow­ment will also draw committees

o f professionals in appropriate disciplines for expertise and project evaluations.

Grants and contributions to the fund may be sent to the Micronesia Institute at 1275 K. Street NW. Suite 360, Washing­ton, D.C. 20005-4006 , ear­marked “endowment”. All con­tributions are fully tax-deduct­ible according to section 501 -c3 o f the US tax code.

In addition to the Luce Foun­dation, grantors to the Institute for development of the fund to date include M obil O il M icronesia Inc., the lam Mactaggart Trust o f Great Brit­ain and C ontinental Air Micronesia.

Sincerely,/s/Mary E. FlanaganLegal CounselOffice o f the Public Auditor

Dear Editor:I have never been so privi­

leged to write you (since you are the b est m edium o f co m ­m unication) until a recent incident that I was involved with.

It was about a young Chuukese man who was arrested and sub­sequently released. He was an em ployee o f Jin Apparel Gar­ment Factory, one of the many garm ent factories here on Saipan. The factory alleged that he “stole” shirts, prompting his getting fired from his job.

I have no relationship with the young man in question, but I have the responsibility of over­se e in g h is w elfare sim ply because he has been under my care after he “nomaded” to my house.

Anyway, the guy wrote me an “authorization slip” to pick up his paycheck, a salary of some days he worked before he got terminated. I submitted the le­gal note to a Chuukese “local supervisor,” who in turn, sub­mitted it to aChamorro personnel manager.

I was then referred to a certain Richard Borja. I explained to him about the note and he ad­vised that due to a “case” they arc working on, he could not release the check. I told him that

neither he nor the garment fac­tory has the right to hold onto the poor man’s paycheck because he has not been found guilty of their allegation in a Court of Law. Borja firmly refused to budge and held on to his belief that because o f their allegation,, the paycheck would have to be withheld.

Because the young man has gotten to the point where he ex­perienced hunger, I approached the Commonwealth’s labor Of­fice for assistance. First, over the telephone and later in person. One o f the officials, Joe Salas, came to the rescue. He wrote a letter to Mr. Richard Borja di­recting and advising him to release that check.

After three days of fruitless effort on July 26, I visited Jin Apparel, this time with the letter from Mr. Joe Salas. I personally hand carried it to Mr. Richard Boija. He read it butstill refused to release the check without the presence o f Mr. Pertino Ruben.I tried again, unsuccessfully, to make him understand the simple fact that they have no right to hold onto Mr. Ruben’ s paycheck without the Court first finding him guilty o f what he is charged with. And then it will be up to the Court as to how or when, if ever found guilty, he will pay for damages.

Startingto lose patience, I went and brought back Mr. Ruben to Jin Apparel. This was when the nightmare began. A few minutes after arrival, a “swarm”of police officers emergencied to Jin Ap­parel. Mr. Borja I assumed, called them up because the of­ficers asked me why I was “bothering” them. My frequent phone calls and subsequent ap­pearances must have given them that wrong impression.

To me, it seemed like the scene was that o f a mass murderer being cornered by police officers and vehicles in a rapid deployment operation. It was merely- a matter which could have been resolved by the company itself.

The officers on the scene, in­cluding Mr. Richard Borja, were pressuring Mr. Ruben to admit thathedid“steal” theshirts. They questioned him withoutalawyer, something which Ruben did not realize to a basic legal require­ment and right. Mr. Borja maintained thatif Mr. Ruben did admitandbroughteven twoshiits

back, he would drop the case.Because Mr. Ruben had been

arrested and q uestioned , I thought o f the whole thing as “double jeopardy.” Mr. Ruben was given two choices: either he admitted taking the shirts and the “case” would be dropped, or he denied that allegation, and he would be given his paycheck.

Perhaps the Labor Office, and other appropriate offices or agencies should closely monitor the business “behavior” garment factories manifest to their em­p lo y ee s , as w ell as the Commonwealth’sDepartmentof Public Safety “attitude” towards the public.

CUC to . . .Continued from page 1San Jose, residents from the San Vicente, Papago, Koblervilje, San Antonio, Kagman and out­lying areas way down south will have more access to the CUC when paying their bills.

The main branch o f the pay­ment section o f the CUC at Lower Base can still be utilized by the residents from the north­ern part o f the island.

Guerrero in addressing the guests who graced the opening o f the CUC payments branch said that the new office is meant to alleviate heavy traffic at the CUC’s main office in Lower Base.

“This would bring us closer to the public as w ell as to facilitate the payment o f bills,” Guerrero said.

A lso, entries made on the computers in the San Jose office would automatically be linked to CUC’s main computer net­work at the Lower Base office.

“So wherever our clients go, whether at our new office or still at our old office, they can make payments,” Guerrero added.

It was noted that CUC clients have been complaining about power disconnections being made even after payments have actually been made to local banks accepting utility pay­ments.

“The problem with payments coursed through banks is that it takes two to three weeks before they get remitted to our main office. So by that time some of these customers have already experienced disconnection,” Guerrero stressed.

He said that with the new fa­cility , this problem may be eliminated.

Guerrero also disclosed plans that a study on rate structure increase has just been completed and that the CUC is presently preparing to inform the governor and the legislature about the de­tails o f the study.

Plans to increase power tax are also in the offing, from 11 cents to 12 cents per kilowatt for residential consumers, while for commercial users, tax will be raised from 16 cents to 18 cents per kilowatt.

He also made public the cre­ation o f two teams composed of certified electrical engineers from the US who will undertake power monitoring activities on every government and com ­mercial building to determine their daily power consumption.

“This is in order that w e may know if the CUC is losing and if our clients are being charged correctly,” he indicated.

“This w ill also be undertaken for the islands o f Rota and Tinian to see how much each o f them has to pay,” Guerrero added.

The Executive Director also announced that CUC’s office personnel will now be sporting a new set o f uniforms specifi­cally tailored to reflect profes­sionalism that the CUC strives to achieve in dealing with its clients.

Sablan on MIHA’s . . .Continued from page 19

school property.He pointed out that he and the

governor have written MPLC to provide MIHA the exchange, but the MPLC Board was reportedly not responding very favorably on the matter.

MIHA suggested that other alternative must be explored should MPLC turn down the request, such as appropriating funds from the general fund of the government in order that MIHA gets compensated to al­leviate some o f its immediate cash flow problem.

“W e need immediate funds to continue to operate until HUD approves our request to lease North Garapan Annex I and II. For two and a half years, we have been trying to convince HUD that MIHA’s financial re­covery is contingent upon dis­p osin g M IH A ’s a sse ts in Garapan,” Sablan said.

He added that proceeds from the lease w ill be used to payoff M IHA’s obligations with the contractor, the Commonwealth Development Authority (CDA), and the banks. “Some o f our obligations should have been absorbed by the CNMI govern­ment or by the CUC because they are related to infrastructure.”

According to Sablan’s letter to Tones , MIHA built houses with paved roads, sewer system, power and water systems with the understanding that the leg­islature will appropriate money for the infrastructure.

“W e spent over $10 million on infrastructure projects and the legislature failed to provide the funding. That’s why we ended up with the obligations to the contractors and the banks.”

“The beneficiary o f these projects is the general public including businesses connected to MIHA’s system without pay­ing a single penny. While MIHA is straddled with the obligations, other government agencies, like the CUC, are reaping the benefits. CUC charges connection fees, and collects monthly revenue from our system,” Sablan la­mented.

DEQ water report this week

The Division o f Environmen­tal Quality (DEQ) analyzed water samples from Saipan’s recre­ational beaches this w eek. Sam ples collected from the Saipan Beach Hotel contained excessive concentrations of fe­cal coliform bacteria, which violate the CNMI contamination level as defined in the CNMI Marine WaterQuality Standards.

DEQ therefore advises the general public not to swim or fish within 300 ft. from these locations until further notice

FRIDAY-AUGUST 2,1991 - MARIANAS VARIETY NEWS AND VŒWS-37

More funding being sought for public library

The CNMI public library still needs some $592,000 in funding to keep the project going, in time for the targeted grand opening date, which is scheduled for Decem ber 12, 1991.

This was learned from a letter dated July 31,1991 sent by Sen. Juan S. Torres to all members o f both the Senate and th e H o u s e o f Representatives.

The letter was apparently urging all legislators to take the initiative in helping the library to really take o ff the ground.

The senator was apparently

Somewhere somebody needs help«

P lease help support your lo ca l chapter

taking the cue from Friends of the Library Chairman Anthony Pellegrino who said that the original time schedule for the supposed ribbon cutting for the public library may be delayed because of inadequate funding.

Torres lam ented that the shortfall in funding goes on even if the governor is allegedly aware of the situation and hasn't initiated any funding request which can be addressed

in the FY 91 supplemental budget.

"Are we to have a beautiful building for the library without books, furnishing equipment, s u p p l i e s , an d m o s t importantly, personnel to take care o f the d ay-to -d ay operations o f the library. I trust that your conscience be your guide in helping secure funding for the project," the senator said.

PIC Saipan Clubmate flies o ff to Thailand

David Olopai, one of the pi­oneers of thePacific Islands Club (PlC)-Saipan Clubmate will soon be flying off to Thailand to con­tinue his career with the fast growing resort company.

Olopai, who is the last o f the original group o f PIC-Clubmates started with the company since its opening in 1988. He has spent his time teaching tourists sailing, diving and other sports that guests can avail o f from the ho­tel.

Olopai will assume similar

David Olopai duties at the new PIC resort in Phuket, Thailand which is scheduled to open on October.

PIC-Saipan General Manager Terry Short said that Olopai’s new job is typical of the in­creasing opportunities for local persons as resort operations like the PIC expand their present op­erations and create new ones throughout the Pacific. In addi­tion to the soon-to-open Thailand branch, PIC has opened a world class golf course in Bali and is also working on possible resorts in Fiji and Australia.

Olopai said that the combi­nation o f good benefits and the opportunity to travel and meet people makes it likely that he will be working for PIC for a “good long time.”

“It shows that the rewards are there for those who hang around and put in the time, both here on Saipan and overseas as well,” Short said.

He said that local hiring has been a priority since the resort opened, though the competition between the local tourist indus­try em p loyers for e lig ib le workers have been increasingly tough.

A summer work program for local students has been popular and a number o f participants for this summers training has been back for the second time.

The program does not always work directly to produce long term employees for PIC, Short said, noting that one former summer program employee is now a trainee for the Marianas Visitors Bureau.
