Garment Assn. against illegal activities Dear Editor: Your personal opinion as aired in the

Marianas Variety's August 12th edition of ''Get the Point" deserves equal time from the Gannent Industry Association we feel, as your 5 AM assessment of what had happened may have put you in a bad frame of mind.

First, as President of GIA, let me point out Eurotex has never been, and appears never will be, a member of the Association.

~econdly, if you please, let me personally pomt out that the Garment Industry Association was incorporated for many reasons one being to prevent what you refer to ~ the "favorite sport" of garment factory and construction companies; "Midnight Deporta-

tion" ~ as well as other unfair and illegal business pracllces, and for a unified voice in all concerns. - GIA wholeheartedly agrees with your condemnation of anyone; night clubs, restaurants, hotels, . construction companies, employers of domesllc workers, garment factories, etc., who violates any civil, criminal or human rights of its employees.

As hard as it is to do, GIA is still in the process of writing and implementing a Code ofEthics and ~n th_e mean time carefully overseeing and ~licmg 11:5 members to. be sure no one company is harm mg the reputallon of the industry as a whole. Unfortunately, we have no control over factories

Kidnapping (alleged) must not be winked at by CNMI justice

They are awaiting the report from Commerce and Labor before deciding.

My sources tell me they feel it is a "labor problem."

Since when? I agree that paying substandard wages, working long hours with no overtime, and other factors ARE labor concerns. But, the poor, over-worked Commerce and Labor bureaucrats can not be all things for all people.

napping are not charged with a felony, then the lack of prosecution will send a clear message that the practice is tacitly approved by the law enforcement arm of the Commonwealth (and I don't mean the DPS, Ed.)

I just wonder if the F.B.I. would be interested in the shenanigans at Eurotex and other businesses which use brute strength and 'Rent-a-Cops' todo their dirty work. In many ways the tactics employed by these type folks equal those of the Klan in the southern U.S. -except they don't hang aliens from the first tree ... they just put them on a plane for 'home' -and use that as a 'lesson' to others not to mess with the boss.

Reader upset over comments Dear Editor: As indigenous residents of the

Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, we take strong exception to some recent remarks made by Philippine Secretary of Foreign Affairs, Raul Manglapus during his visit to the Marianas. The regulation at foreign labor and immigration in the CNMI is an internal matter and we strongly object at his attempt to interfere in our local affairs under the guise of basic human rights violation. His statements regarding separation of families and basic human rights are plain hypocrisy. Let's look at the facts: ·

More importantly however if he is so concern about basic human right violations, we suggest that Mr. Manglapus take a closer look at his own country. The abject conditions of poverty and unequal distribution of wealth are one of the most glaring and shameful violations of basic human rights.

The current alien labor and immigration problems in the CNMI are local problems of our own making. The recent bills attempting to control he number of foreigners in the Commonwealth, albeit uncomprehensive, are an attempt to control this malignancy, a cancer that will eventually spell the demise of the indigenous people if left unchecked. We have the right to do this. For those moralists and critics who say that the intent of these bills are "discriminatory", we ask this question: Is there a nation in the whole world whose immigration and labor laws do not protect its nationals and therefore "discriminate" against outsiders? Even the U.S. immigration laws are discriminatory in this sense.

A little birdie told me that the way things work with some factories which hire mainland Chinese workers has absolutely nothing to do with the law. Representatives of the company allegedly make deals with the workers or their agents in China - promising so much money for so much produced. If they don't make the quota - they hav;e to work until they do.

In other words, this is "piece work" and not allowed under U.S. labor laws.

When the workers realize they are on U.S. soil and entitled to more money for their hours, the bosses won't pay, saying the workers are bound by the 'deal' made in China - not the laws of this Commonwealth and the U.S. . . . then the problems start.

111111J111111111111111111111II1111

We'll see what happens with the garment workers in the next few months. Richard Pierce, the head of the Garment Factory Association, has a letter to the editor in today's paper decrying the tactics ofEurotex and folks of their 'cut.' He and I had a little discussion about his industry in general and he reminded me that my assessment of 'criminall{

low wages was off-b~. because the wages here are much higher than in their homeland.

But, he had no come-back when I reminded him that in their homeland they could buy food, clothing and other things much cheaper than in the Commonwealth, too.

11=1111111111 fl 111111111111 1111 111111 I

My grandfather said that nothing is free in this world. and that has always proved to be true, because when the employers try to cheat employees out of their money, they get caught and have to pay up, eventually.

Is it really worth it? If a worker can not do the job- then don 'thire them. If it takes two alien workers to do the job one local person can do at twice the price, isn't it worth it to hire a local person?

11 I I I 11 11 I I I I I II I 111 11 111 11 1111 I I

Finally, I want to congratulate officer Hall of the DPS. He told me that he has been accepted for the California Highway Patrol. Despite our initial meeting at the end of handcuffs, I have since found that he is a very good officer and I wish him well on the mainland.

lllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllol

ls/James U. Hofschneider ls/MS. George ls/Paz Younis

The Philippine government condones, sanctions, and supports the routine separation of Filipino families. The export of cheap labor is a big industry in the Philippines. Each year, millions of dollars in hard earned currency earned by Filipino contract workers abroad, are pumped into the Philippine economy. Everytime a Filipino is granted a permit by Philippine government to work abroad, he or she is separated from his or her family. Our point again is this: what Mr. Manglapus calls a violation of "basic human rights" is institutionalized by his own government and inherent in the contract labor system .

We ask visitors and guest workers of the CNMI to refrain from being self-righteous about

our internal political issues, especially if they do not have any appreciation and knowledge of our hbtory, culture, and values. It is arrogant for any foreigner to apply its history, politics, and morality to our fragile community for its own benefit.

Reyes says he hid after Mack was shot \~!£~mpage 1

"I came up to look . . . the woman was lying down ... face down."

Reyes also testified under cross examination that he was about 25 feet behind and somewhat to the side of Mendiola when he walked into the boonies with Mack and Conley. But Reyes said he could hear Mendiola talking.

Then Reyes said he ran away from the scene of the crime to Koblerville.

Taylor took an aggressive posture in his cross examination, which began Wednesday.

He said that Reyes had denied knowledge of the crime in an interview with police in March. "At the time you told them that, you knew it was a lie, didn't you,"

he said. "Yes," repliect Reyes. "What did he '(Mendiola)

say?"_ Taylor asked. "Hand over your watch," Reyes said. "And the wallet. . .and the lady's watch."

Reyes also said that after Mack was killed, he hid in the brush for 15 to 20 minutes. Then he came back out after he heard the third shot, he said.

An attentive observer during Reyes' testimony Wll$ Mrs. Patricia Mack, who was the first witness called in the case.

Mack, 55, and Harry Conley, · 78, both gave short and tearful

testimony Tuesday about the last time they saw their spouses on Oct 27.

"The last time I saw him was

when he drove me to my office at the Department of Environmental Quality at about 7:30 in the morning," Mack said of her late husband. "He was to pick me up at 4:30 in the afternoon."

Mack said some friends drove her home and she called the police later that evening. "I notified the police that he had not shown up and I talked to several other people on the phone about his absence," Mack said. · She also said she had not

planned to see her husband again that day until it was time for him to pick her up from work.

A great deal of Mack's testimony focused on her husband's watch, allegedly stolen by Mendiola, and other personal items in his

Harry N. Conley, Jr., said that he and his wife were good friends with the Macks. He ~d that at around noon on Oct. 27, Galen Mack came to his house in San Antonio to take his wife shopping because his health was poor and he was not driving. Conley said his wife was planning to go to two stores to buy baked goods, drinking water and laundry detergent.

Near sunset that day, Conley said he went to his neighbor's house and had somebody contact police to report that his wife was missing.

After giving testimony, the elderly Conley stood up and a bailiff rushed to his assistance as he broke down in tears.

The prosecution also brought in Dr. Arthur J. Loerzel, a Guam pathologist, who explained photos of the wounds and bodies to

Director Ed Manibusan detailed the police procedure for interrogating witnesses, which includes writing every question and answer given in the interview.

The prosecution's last witness Thursday was Melvin Emiliano, of Chalan Piao, who was out crab hunting on the night of Oct. 28 with a friend when the two discovered the bodies.

He said his friend saw the man lying face down and the two turned their flashlights on the body from about 25 feet away. Then they went to San Antonio and contacted the police. When officers took the boys to the site later that night, they also discovered Conley's body, Emiliano said.

"I'm going to try and anticipate what you might be wondering," he said. "but, of course, I'm not going to be able to answer all the questions in your mind."

Defense attorney Marty Taylor told jurors their job is to seek the truth. "It is not simple," Taylor said. •This is going to be one of the most difficult things you will do in your lives."

What they have to do is find guilt beyond a reasonable doubt and to a moral certainty, he said. "In order to convict, you will have to make a determination that you will live with for the rest of your life," he said "If you have any reasonable doubt in your mind in regard to any of the~ 11 counts, your duty will be to rule •not guilty.'"

The defense counsel said that on the day of the incident, Mendiola was working in the UMDA warehouse and worked past 5 p.m. that day.

students left the Commonwealth Aug. 9 to attend school in the United States Mainland fol," one year under the sponsorship of the Future Fanners of America.

The students are Gardner Barcinas of Rota High, Anna Maria Cruz of Tinian High, and Leocardio Mafnas of Marianas High. They will be living with

host families. This is the first time for the

CNMI tot ake part in this Future Fanners of America program, said Assistant Associate Superin-· tendent oflnstruction Leo Boyer, who coordinated the selection process in the CNMI.

He said the three students, who will be in eleventh grade this coming school year, were se-

lected on the basis of their maturity and grades. All the three have B or better grades, he said.

Boyer said Instructional Program staffer Jessica Guerrer helped in orienting the students in Saipan before their departure for the Mainland. The studen~' parents were present at the orient.ation, he said.

FHP donates $200 to Cancer Society drive Members of the Saipan branch of the American Cancer Society recently accepted a $200 check to aid their efforts from the local office of FHP.

Investment insofar as the local people are concerned is limited to the elitist group-a handful of people who can afford to invest some of their money in these ventures. A lot of them (locals) will subsequently sell their stocks hoping that their decisions would retain the value of their investments when the company isn't financially stable.

Thus, alienation is created when locals sell their stocks or when a majority of the local population (cash poor) are notailowed to invest because investment can only occur if an individual has money to invest So we find these developments (absent local participation in direct investments) to be imported and the profits rcaped-majorityexported back to investors in Japan, etc. It will be interesting to find how much per dollar imported into the N orthem

Marianas actually stays here and is recycled in the CNMI. This alienation has a very negative effect upon the local

population in terms of future security. It has forced us to look toward the government for jobs. Before the creation of the EDLF (now CDA), the banking institutions here (because of peculiarities in the laws under the former Trust Territory Government) have not been able nor willing to loan money for private entrepreneurial development. This too contributed, to a large degree, to our attitude that security can only be found in good paying government jobs.

That we have looked toward the government for security inevitably created a vacuum-job openings in the private

job vacancies in order to operate. We created this vacuum either by design or through oversight. In this amalgam of confusion, we have allowed our own policies to run against each other-we urge our young people to take up vocations in trade, etc. Yet we discourage them almost instantaneously by exempting these jobs from the CNMI minimum wage law.

Unless we partake in these economic ventures through investments so to make development a meaningful aspect of growth, we will never have any appreciation for all the furniture that we have seen set in our living room (CNMI). Development, therefore, will have displaced the local people more so than anything else. Think about it

Rita lnos C·ommended for work in CAPE programs:

"One of the finest" PSS - Principal of Rota Ele

mentary Rita lnos was commended by ~e Director of the Honolulu-based Center for the Advancement of Pacific ·Educa- · tion (CAPE) in a CAPE meeting held in Saipan recently.·

"She is one of the finest school principals that I have know," John W. Kafel on Tuesday told.a group of twenty-seven Pacific educators attending the CAPE's research and development meeting on producing effective school practices for the Pacific classrooms. . Kofel told the educators in the meeting, held atMarianas High, that lnos will join a number of highly-qualified ''Professionals on Loan" from the Pacific region to woik in CAPE's office in Honolulu and throughout the region. The areas in the region include Hawaii, American Samoa, Federated States of Micronesia, Marshall Islands, Palau, Guam, and the Northern Marianas.

The Rota Elementary Principal, Kafel said, will work for CAPE for one year starting August 21. She will be an asset to the program, he added.

Inos, who received a Masters Degree in cross-cultural anthropology from California State University in Sacramento in 1983, has been Principal of Rota Elementary since January 1982, PSS officials said.

Kofel also announced in the meeting that Ms. Iyano Baules, Director of Research at the Micronesian Occupational College in Palau, has also joined CAPE in Honolulu for one year beginning last Monday (August 1).

The CAPE Director said that a number of educators from the Micronesian area have worked for CAPE in the recent past They included Rioichy Johnny, Truk Chief of Curriculum and Instruction; Anson Sigrah, Chief of Curriculum and Instruction in Kosrae; and Aliksa Andrike, Marshalls Elementary and Secondary Education Supervisor.

These professionals on loan have been a great asset to CAPE, and have benefitted their schools greatly with the knowledge gained from their association with the program, Kofel said.

"We are expanding the program, and will have more professionals from the region as we work to set up an independent Pacific Regional Educational Laboratory on December l, 1990," he.said.

Commenting on her selection to join CAPE, Inos said she is honored to join the program, and will do her best representing the CNMI Public School System and promoting quality education in the Pacific region. She said Rota

PSS powers a hot political potato for NMI Continues from paae 40

"The Superintendent shall direct the operation and general administration of the public sc;hool sy·s~ . tern in ilccoardanct with this Act and in conformity with the policies established by the board," ·according to PL 3-43. "The Superintendent shall exercize all powers, in~luding ru!e-making powers, delegated by the Board to carry into effect the polices of the board."

The· Constitutional Amendment establisheing the board has similar language. "The board of efucation shall formulate policy and exercize control over the public school system through the superintendent" But Bermudes said the law will not have a similar provision. I simply says, "The Board shall establish the duties of the Commissioner."

Other House Republicans also took issue with the bill. Congressman Moses Fejeran, a 19-year veteran principal in the Department ofEducation, said he is against the board trying to transfer teachers, which could be avoided if the law spelled out the duties of the commissioner. "My feeling is that I totally agree with the independent board, but I strongly feel that the board should only function as a policy maker and that the board should hire somebody to administer the functions of the Public School System," Fejeran said "I was sharing this infonnation with my fonner collegue, a principal. I think there was a case of a teacher being transferred without the concurrence of the principal. The decision to transfer the teachers to oter schools is not final. But whoever the board members that made that decision are, I think that should be left up to the principals."

CongressmaJ.1 .William Ada · said· that the· democrats cut off

debate on the bill before the minority hail thecharice to intorduce all its amendments. He said they did not have not chance to add language to the bill outlining the duties of the commissioner.

Ada also took issue with a statement by Board Chariman Luis Limes that if the bill went back to the legislature, lawmakers would "sit on.it." He said that Republicans were in the monor~ ity and could not control how the bill would be handled by the legislature. Although the measure was in the first group of bills transmitted from the Senate to the House in the Sixth Legislature, the democratic leadership did not report the measure out until July, he said.

Bermudes agreed. "We're the minority, we're never sitting on the bill," he said; "We never intend and we never have a chance to sit on the bill. Who's sitting on the bill?"

A controversial section of the bill that mandates the privitazation of the food services program in the schools was also an 11thhour amendment introduced by democrats, Bermudes said. Commissioner of Education Henry I. Sablan said that food services contracts have already been let . for the upcoming school year and thata cancelling them could open the schools to lawsuits.

Congressman David Sablan called the privitazation provision "a mistake."

The Board of Education decided Aug. 12 that it would be bettertosendthelegislation to the governor and introduce immediated amendments to several sections rather than have it go throught the legislative process, giving lawmakers the chance to

He also said that although Proctor has laready left to assume a new post in Washinton as deputy directorof the Organized Crime Task Force of the Justice Department, he will still be carried onthe books for budget purposes until October 2. ''.Technically, he is taking his accumu~ lated leave now," Vernier said. The Guam-based assistant did not.rule out a new person being named soon, possibly by next month: ...

take away some of the board's powers.

Bermudes said a better way would be to recall the bill and intorduce the amendments in conference committee. The houses would then be voting only

on the amendments, he said, and that would expedite the legislation.

But Fejeran said it might be best just to see how the bill works as law. "Give the bill a chance to live bofore we can do something

about it," he said. "there's nothing we can do now."

The Board of Education is in the process of consull.ing the attorney general's office before recommend amendments to the legislature.

Salas: Look at a 'good deal' very carfully from page 1

lem operators," the article quoted Salas as saying.

Part of his job will be very familiar to the former son of a judge; working with law enforcement officers and other agencies to spread an alarm they hear about - and vice-versa.

Because Saipan is so far away from the Mainland and telephone calls are so expensive to here, the problem of phone solicitations are not that prevelant in the Commonwealth, but such operations could be set up here, and like Salas warns the peopleofHawaii, they can make some things sound too good to be true.

He said that in February of this year over $4.9 million in questionable solicitations . were discussed by his BBB. "A telephone Sweepstakes scam from the Mainland drew 200 calls alone,"

the article quoted Salas as revealing.

He said the "sweepstakes" company would call someone and say they had "won" something. "Buttheywouldadd .. 'But ·we need one thing from you. We would like you to be a customer ofouradvertisingcompany ... '"

Then the unsuspecting "winners" would be asked for their credit card information and suddenly $300-$600 worth of stuff would be charged to them without permission, he said.

Therealkillerwaswhenthesocalled "prize" arrived it would be virtually worthless. An example of the prize reveled by Salas was a "fur coat" worth about $40, and a "home entertainment center" which was nothing but a blinch of shelves - empty at that.

Businesses are not immune to

the scruns, Salas said. A telephone call comes in from an unknown caller asking for the serial number of the office photocopy machine. A little while later the person calls back and represents that he he the regular office supply dealer for the company and used the just-obtained serial number to prove that he is.

Then, he offers the company a "good deal" on photocopy toners or other office supplies at a very low price.

Again, once the material arrives, it is usually of so poor a quality that it would ruin anything it was used in. many times the prices charged are as much as 400 percent of retail.

Salas offered the following advice to help avoid being taken by scam, according to the article:

1. NEVER give your credit

card number until you know something about the company wanting it.

2. Find out what type of company it is, and assure yourselJ through other references about its

reputation. 3. BEFORE agreeing to a pur

chase of an unknown product get acopyofthecontractandgoover it with a knowledgeable person.

No charges yet in Eurotex 'incident' By WESLEY GOODMAN senior reporter Jae~ Torres, deputy director of

the CNMI Department of Commerce and Labor, said that Eurotex garment factory in San Vicente ·js under investigation for an incident Aug. 9 in which security guards removed a worker ·there · and allegedly threatened him with deportation.

He Daxing was removed from the factory compound and work-

ers walked out Aug. 9 and said they v;ould not return until they saw his safe· return. Police returned Daxing to the factory at about 10 p.m. that night

Officials from Commerce and Labor and the attorney general's office did not retrun calls to reporters Thursday.

Assistant AG Mark Warns said he was misquoted in a report by FAMCO, te security agency. he

warned security officers of their conductatthescene. "Youarenot police officers and you will not

· use force," he said. "You will treat these workers with dignity and respect. The incident this evening will be investigated by the De.partment of Public Safety and ·arrests will be made. There will be no further incidents of this kind. If there are, you will. be arrested immediately, understand?"

INFANTS AND BAPTISM

· 'lnnn '. .(.IUCI

Tut: "But In vain do they wonhip me, teaching for doctines the commandments of men" (Jeaua in Matt.16:9)

Two opinions are found among thoae who baptize lnfanta. Tue first is that infant. who are children of believers· are of the "elect,'' are already regenerate, and should therefore be baptized. Thia is Protestant thinking tint ta\ll!ht by John Calvin. · '

The leCOnd opinion is that, l!ince they mi born in sin, they mU!t be bap. fued IO as to wash away Adamlc sin, While It is true that the Bible teaches that all men are born with sinful natures, two falae ll!SUDlptlons are foisted onto this µiith IO 81 to make It a doctrine and commandment of men rather than of .God. Fint it ii IWUllled that ritual washing can actually cleanse the 10ul of ita linful nature, and second it is further asaumed in complete distortion of Biol!cal revelation that to die unbaptized is to perish. Such doctrine reduces tbOlll who are deceived by it to nothing more than "servants of men" (I Cor. 7:23), for the men who administer the "sacrament" thul be· come their •vior rather than the rilen Bon of God

It ii not, "baptl.un" to sprinkle helpleu infanta with water to "eeal the coven~t". or to "'save their aoula." Bapt!am 81 set forth in the New Testa ment ligniliea the immersion of bom-ag:ajn believen faith alone ·their sina w~ punl!h~ tully in Christ's death, and that now of faith they have riaen :h ~ ~ w.~ in the power of HIJ resurrection. (Rom.6:1-7). The very ::e~ baptize in the original Greek can mean only to lmmene, nothing

Salvation ii wholly by God's grace, 'throu!ih faith, which, of coune in· fants cannot yet have •. and can never be obtained througb any ritual. It is God. a.lone who saves lllllllera, and the aoul of your Infant can well be truated to Hia Infinite mercies.

On what are YOU relying for your own 110ul'1 salvation the grace of God or the doctinea and commandmenta or men? '

Not criminally liable Continues rrom page 40

Hillblom's name wasmentionedrepeatedly, "Matuwan was mentioned once in passing, but not criticized."

Hillblom alleged in the criminal portion of his complaint against the cable company and Holmes that he was filing suit on behalf of Matuwan, not necessarily for himself, personally.

But, during testimony at hearings on motions, as well as in documents submitted to the court, the lawyer said tlu\t for all practical purposes he was Matuwan .and when anyone directs criticisms at the corporation, they are usually referring to him - not the company.

Hillblom contended in his interview this week that he was never given the evidence he sought from the cable company which would how that they systematically meant to defame him, Matuwan and other investors in the cable company's early years. He said that they used "Freedom of the Press" as a defense for the "smear campaign" as

The legislation "grandfathers" foreign businesses already in the Commonwealth, 8llowing them to stay open until their license expires. They would alsQ be entitled to annually renewable business licenses provided it not issued for any new line of business or companies expanding the scope of their business.

the cable company which alleges that he set the price and then paid the price for the cable shares bought from the Saipan investors based on a· set of figures that were not correct.

The bill would also charge the Economic Development Division of the Deparunent of Commerce with maintaining a complete set of records of all business licenses issued, to be published annually and available free of

"The suit on that part of the case will continue," Hillblom said, and 1

"I feel that the criminal aspects of the case are still not over yet" Cable television attorney Mark Holmes was quoted in the press ·

release saying; "The company is delighted with the court's decision. Saipan Cable TV and Cable News worked hard to infonn the people of the Commonwealth about important events involving Mr. Hillblom, and objected when he called news and editorials ('')Crimes.(") We feel the court correctly determined the accusations were a vendetta without any factual basis.'"

Echoing Willter's assertion, the group stated "we are the same majority who may decide to disregard the Compact entirely and mandate our president to pursue a completely different political status and tiesnot necessarily with the United States of America."

At the same time, Salii opponents having formed a coalition to defeat the president in the November 2 election. Called the "Coalition for Open, Honest and Just Government," the group includes a number of well known leaders. Among those reported as members of the coalition are Govs. Roman Tmetuchel (Airai) and Moses Uludong (Ngchcsar), Vice President Thomas Remengesau, Speaker Santos Olikong and High Chief Ibedul Yutaka Gibbons. The group apparently will try to fashion a slate to contest the election but Salii spokesman Bonifacio Basilius told reporters Salii did not believe the coalition could survive because so many of its key figures want to be president themselves.

If anything, the coalition probably offsets the Ta Belau Party in the minds of those in Washington trying to figure out just exactly where public sentiment lies in Palau. The gulf in understanding is enormous . Palau and the U.S. both have three branches of government including a Senate, a House and President. But the similarity may end there. Clearly all but a few in Palau appreciate America's checks-and-balances system. Similarly, it is difficult for Salii to convince deLugo and others here that he is reflecting majority sentiment when such key leaders as the House Speaker and Senate President, the Vice President and the top ranking High Chief are

Palu fights for its place in U.S. laws

WPR - Even as U.S. Rep. Ron deLugo (D-VI) and his chief territorial staff aide Jeff Farrow were busy in Atlanta removing their fellow Virgin Islanders' proposed platform plank references to "the right of the peoples of ... nations under a compact with the United States to decide their destiny without outside interference," Palau Washington representative Haruo Willter was putting the final touches on a stiff letter to deLugo objecting to the Insular Affairs Chairman "forcing Palau by an Act of the U.S. Congress to hire a Public Auditor and a Special Prosecutor" as a means to solve financial and law enforcement problems in the last remaining element of the Trust Territory. He also said "I feel that the Committee has gone too far nto local matters involving local

policies with which the Committee is not familiar." Mainly, however, Willter wanted to counter what he obviously believes were misstatements about what transpired in an early June Honolulu meeting between Palau Pres. Lazarus E. Salli, deLugo and key staffers for both sides. Willter insists that deLugo's characterization of a SaliideLugo agreement on the contents and wording of HJ. Res. 597 is "simply not true." He went on to say that the chairman's assertion that Salii had agreed to support the legislation but changed his position after returning to Palau "is not a true statement" and suggested that since most of the negotiations were carried on by aides "(p )erhaps the staff misinformed you on what we actually agreed or disagreed on in Honolulu." Willter also told deLugo that "the manner in which the hearing was conducted has alienated some Palauan leaders who were strong supporters of the Compact" but who now oppose it and charged that the Committee "is creating more reasons to delay the Compact implementation" despite deLugo's claims he wants to move quickly.

WPR is not aware of any direct deLugo response to Willter but this past Friday he fued off a letter to Interior Secretary Donald Hodel concerning the planned GAO follow up visit to Palau. In it deLugo says that he had been told that Salii is not providing the cooperation he had promised. "The GAO says that (Salii's) special assistant here in Washington (Willter) has said that a team scheduled to leave for Palau by August 7 will not be welcome or given access to information (and) that he cannot guarantee their safety if they do go ... " wrote deLugo. "An unwillingness to cooperate could ... prevent this committee from being able to consider (the Compact) legislation ... ,"he said.

Farmers, ranchers get help

The Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Service (ASCS) has recently notified 31 fanners and ranchers in the · Commonwealth of their tentative approval for cost-sharing assistance under the Agricultural Conservation Program (ACP).

ACP is a cooperative effort by farmers, ranchers, government agencies and other groups to solve soil, water, and related resource problems through costsharing and exchange of technical expertise. Under this program, up to 75%, to a maximum of $3,500, of the cost of a needed conservation practice can be funded by the federal government

The ACP was officially ex-tended to the CNMI in March of this year. Officials from ASCS visited the area in late April and met with government officials, farmers and ranchers to begin the program.

In a cooperative agreement, the USDA Soil Conservation Service (SCS) assists interested participants in applying for the program which is administered by ASCS through its State Office in Honolulu, Hawaii. A 30 day application period was set up for the month of June in which staff from the SCS received requests and visited local farmers and ranchers.

Mr. Charles B. Frear, District Conservationist for the SCS assisting the Commonwealth, reports that the interest by the local agriculture community is most impressive. A total of 43 applications were submitted to ASCS for possible funding under the program. With theawardingoftenta-bve approval of 31 of the requests, the scs will work with those farmers and ranchers to discuss their applications and notify them as to whether the requested conservation practice is needed and practical.

This program will become available annually to interested participants in the CNMI. A least one application period will be opened each year for those desiring to apply. For further information contact your USDA Soil Conservation Office located on each island.

All programs and services of the United States Department of Agriculture are offered on a nondiscriminatory basis, without regard to race, color, national origin, religion, sex, age, marital status, or handicap.

Letters: Continues from page 2

who are not aligned with our group. GIA members face possible suspension for violations if held to be true and uncorrected.

The past will show a nurn ber of instances where the Association has gone on record as requesting for assistance from government agencies to enforce and monitor our industry, as well as other private sector businesses.

The Association has supplied its members with laws and regulations regarding CNMI minimum wage and Fair Labor Standards Act. The Association has communicated and cooperated with investigations by the U.S. Labor Department Wage and Hour Division, where grievances and violations have ocurred (Check with William Woodall, Enforcement Officer). The Association requested of the CNMI Department of Commerce and Labor and the Department of Public Health and Sanitation that inspection be made not only of existing manufacturers, but also of new factories before their nonresident workforce was allowed to en~r (Check with DCL and Mr. Iriarte at Public Health). The Association is the only group I can recall that voluntarily offered to CUC to tum their stand-by generators on during peak consumption hours (Check with Pete Sasamoto).

The GIA has suggested and endorsed the administratively enforced present moratorium, and would support legislation to supercede it. The GIA has invited Major Pete P. Reyes, Chief of CNMI Customs and Department of Commerce and Labor officials to speak at our meetings to educate us as to our mutual concerns and applicable laws and regulations.

I have not seen the Hotel Association or Contractors Association participating and endorsing these common concerns as outlined above.

But most important, Mr. Editor, your obviously justified anger at your treatment by some security personnel may have prompted you to condemn us once again as a whole. Be careful of your condemnauon. Prosecute, punish, condemn those that are guilty. Do not malign those businesses, be they factories or construction companies that abide by the law.

Also Mr. Editor, the garment factories did not come here because of criminally low wages. Check what the wages are in

. China or the Philippines, or listen to what your own reporters found; wages are better here. The reason the companies are here is because of duty free entry into the U.S. afforded by Headnote 3(a). Wages and overhead here are higher.

And finally, I would suggest requesting permission to enter private property before the cameras begin clicking to show the air conditioners many of the "sweet shops" now utilize.

Yours truly, ls/Richard A. Pierce for the Garment Industry Association

COMMONWEAL TH UTILITY CORPORATION (CUC)

The Commonwealth Utility Corporation has secured a prime contract with Lyonnaise Marianas America, Inc., a CNMI resident firm who will be performing utility information survey services, electrical and water metering installations. The scheduled duration of this project will be one year beginning July 18, 1988. It involves all flat rate accounts on Saipan, Tinian and Rota.

The CUC is undergoing major development restraints which require achievement of full cost recovery through utility revenues at the earliest possible date. In order that we may facilitate the existing and growing utility demand, accurate metering of each of our customers is a necessity. Equitably increased revenues received by CUC from this project will go toward upgrading the present system and will also enable our management group to maintain in good condition the entire utility system in the future.

The people of the CNMI will prosper by this event by improved water and power utility service supplied to their homes and businesses. In the future CUC will have the necessary budgeting ability to appropriately support growth demand. Further, it will establish a self sustaining utility system. The CNMI will no longer be dependent upon government subsidies for the general operation and management

The CUC is therefore requesting the comm unity's cooperation in this vital matter for us all here in the CNMI. Our contractors will be making several door to door surveys while accumulating required physical and technical data. Actual me~ering installations will follow data gathered. Accuracy is of the utmost importance in this undertaking including property line information, locatiOn of facility underground service lines, occupants names, mailing address and phone numbers if any. Circular questionnaires by fonn will be used by the contractors and will record pertinent information for filing and for future growth reference in your area of the community.

Vol. 17. No.44 August 19, 1988

Business licensing. reviewed By Wes Goodman Staff reporter A bill that would limit the

number of foreign-owned "Mom and Pop" stores in the Commonwealth - and give local busine8smen a chance to tap into those markets-has been passed by the CNMI House and now faces consideration in the Senate.

The legislation aims to restrict certain economic activities to local businesses and to tighten licensing requirements for all Commonwealth businesses.

House Bill 6-28, known as the Business Licensing and Domestic Business DevelopmentActof 1988, says that current business licensing policies have resulted in rapid growth in the number of

foreign-owned businesses in the Commonwealth. "The economic opportunities afforded by our growing economy and, equally importantly, the political and social attractiveness of life here draws foreign enterpreneurs," according to the legislation. "Current business licensing policies are Inadequate and make no provision for directing a reasonable growth based on the compelling government interest in encouraging full particiapation of domestic businesses in the economy."

The measure was passed on second reading in the House Aug. 5.

"The purpose of this Act is to reserve for domestic entrepre-

neurs certain business activities for which there is ample local capital and expertise and to centralize the application and the issuance of business licenses within the Department of Commerce and Labor," the legislation says.

"Domestic business" is defined as being whoiiy owned by persons of Northern Marianas descent, citizens of the the former Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands residing in the Commonwealth, premanent Northern Marianas residents, or citizens of the United States. Also, businesses that employ 20 people or more, of whom at least 90 percent are of Northern Marianas descent
