almost $1 billion last year but contributing less than half of that in taxes; a house under construction in Paradise Valley that will have heated swimming pools for servants, and electronic toilets (for 14 dogs) that will flush automatically when used. The article concludes with the observation that there is .. an exuberance about Arizona that knocks an Easterner off his feet. And it is becoming more evident every day ." Apparent ly, the observation does not apply to Barry Goldwater.
In addition to our guest editorialist, we have our usual editorial piece, this one built around Congressman Spark Matsunaga's outstanding recitation of George Washington's famous Farewell Address . We have used the wire service reports out of Washington (D.C., that is) to emphasize the caliber of work being done by Congressman Matsunaga, and the respect and admiration he is building up for his performance on Capitol Hill.
Then, of course, the other purpose of the editorial is to call your attention to Washing- l ton's address itself. I

1 ~ This month, our emphasis is on a growing .' aspect of the Club 100. So, for our cover, . we portray the JETS, a group of youngsters
who are sons of members of Club 100. These 1 : boys are fielding a team in the Turner I . Memorial Invitational Baseball League; read
. Blue Nagasaki's article for details.
Spotlighting our emphasis, we present Miss Sandy Kawashima (daughter of Baker Chapter's James Kawashima) as a guest editorialist. Sandy says there has been much interest in the formation of a teenage club but there has been no initial move, and asks: "Why?
a No one knows."
Sandy makes all of us feel good and proud when she says of the club motto (For Continuing Service) that "I'm sure you'll agree our dads have fulfilled it to the highest degree" ; so "let us join these valiant soldiers in sharing and continuing their excellent work." Well, how about that - coming from a teenager!
Sandy also speaks about the group of teenagers attending Roo s eve 1 t high, which remInds us of the cover photo in the current issue of the magazine The Honolulu Beacon featuring Christina Gregory from Roosevel; High. The reason for the feature is that Christina has been picked as the "perfect" cosmopOlitan by the editors of that teenage magaZIne Seventeen. What is especially intngUIng about Christina is her racial
~ heritage - her mother is Chinese and her father is Greek; a combination of classical Eastern and Western civilizations. Wow! Add a touch of Kabuki to that strain and Kipling's famous non sequitur (Oh, East is East, and West is West, and never the twain shall meet) will fast unravel.
We have a full issue this month. Thereis Kazuto Shimizu who starts off by complaining about the lousy showing of Charlie Chapter teams In the bowling and softball leagues then goes on to much more pleasant stuff: Wilfred Fujishige covers golf, and from
Stanley Masumoto comes a -group picture of the new officers of the Maui Chapter.
Jits Yoshida covers the ground for Dog Chapter. Then, Kent Nakamura gives a tip of his hat to Roy Hatakenaka for retaining his position as Chief Water Boy of the Medics.
Toshi Kunimura reports the birth of David Jr. to Mr. and Mrs. David Suzuki, Hq Chapter. Which only goes to show that Club 100 members are still at it.
Blue Nagasaki is all over the place, as usual. Blue says that Able Chapter is already taking advantage of the just-passed tax law by raising chapter dues from $2 to $4! Blue also keeps us posted on the progress of the bowling league.
And, Gladys Yamamoto (hooray for her!) reports that the Green Thumbs have come up with a use for those discarded nylon stockings. Read her story and find out.
The Presidential drums are beginnin~ to beat. It must have been surprising to most everybody to see Ambassador Henry Cabot Lodge so far out of the pack in the justconcluded New. Hampshire presidential primary. Which proves at least one thing -most of the voters in New Hampshire can write!
Far behind Lodge' s 32,000 votes was Barry Goldwater with almost 11,000 fewer votes. The Saturday Review carried a recent column on Goldwater, the environs of PhoeniX, and Arizona in general. The article spoke of the significant changes in the manners and morals of Arizona; the significant contrasts, e.g., "we couldn't help noticing that the swimming pools »urrounding Camelback Mountain could, if tilted sufficiently, reflect in their shimmering surfaces a picture of Indian squalor." Other contrasts: Arizona is more dependent on Federal funds than any other state except Alaska, accepting ,
CHARLIE . Golf is a year rouno Sport and WIlfred Fujishige (Ht,,) is reporting for this affiliate this year, replacing Jack Mizushina (C) who was the Tournament Chairman last year. Active golfers bes ides Jack from our chap ter are James Oshiro, Hideshi Niimi, Harold Kazunaga, Warren Iwai and Roy Miyas hiro . We wish them all something usual in their games (high or low) so that we can read about their doing s in Wilfred's column.
Our bowling team s a ren't dOing very well. Masayoshi Kawamoto says "awfuL" They should fe el awful becau se they lost all three games to the wa hine team.
Our softball team also started poorly with a won - lo s s count of 3 to I. Lost games were to Able, B-2 and I 399-A and our s ing le win was to MIS. The team may not be doing tou well but they sport a new uniform including caps.
The softball league has a new team called the "Jets", composed mostly of Club 100 uniors. Howard Higashi, son of Ronald and Shizue Higashi is a "Jet" player. A few more youngsters can hardly wait to grow up so that they can join the team, especially Takeshi Kimura's son, David .
The C Chapter 1965 Reunion is coming along with a bang up chicken sale fund raising drive. March 8 is the date and the target is 2000 sales. Fund raising chairman Ronald Higashi is shooting for 600 all by himself. The B.B.~. cooking will start at 7 :00 A.M. on Mar h 8 and delivery from 10:00 A.M . on for the rest of the day. Everything points to a most successful start toward an eventful reunion.
Our next family nite is scheduled for March 22, Sunday evening. Yoshio Anzai and Hideo Doi are the co-chairmen. With thei r past experience to fE~ly on, we should expect a very good party.
Our condolence to Fred K. Miyaji whose father passed away on March 1.
Kazuto Shim izu
HEADQUARTERS A BELATED CONGRATULATIONS TO Mr. 3t Mrs. David Suzuki for their blessed event on Janaury 29 for on that day David Jr. bles sed the household of the Suzukis. At the time of the event, mother did well, but poor ole pop David (from what they tell me) was in pretty bad shape. I guess he ha s recovered from the ordeal, for he was see n pass ing out belated cigars at the Club House. For those who missed the cigars, we ' ll wait for the next one, eh David. The headquarters gang joins me in extending best wishes to David Jr., and may he grow up to be like to genial old man. Congratulations Mr. & Mrs . David Suzuki.
Hon Cho Nosse finally came through with his finest deed of the year by putting on a tremendous feed during our last family nite. It was a job well done and every one enjoyed an evening of good comadeship. He was ably assisted by Arthur Tamashiro (who seems to be everywhere); Sueshiro, Saruwatari and Iceman Akimoto.
Our thanks to Mrs. Nosse (long time no see), Mrs. Higa, Mrs . Shimogaki, Mrs . Akimoto, Mrs. Saruwatari and Mrs. Otagaki who served the delicious rib roast, salads , gr avy and of course, rice. Many thanks ladies and may we count on your suppOrt again.
Seen heartily eating lime jell0 were Lynn and Mona Higa. It's nice to see new faces at the family nites -- Mr . & Mr s. Arthur Tamashiro and Mr. & Mrs. Masato Kamisato, Hope to see you folks more often. GuestS included Mr. Frank Iwatsuka of Teisan Auto Company and Mr, George .

A--Pension benefits are available to veterans who are totally and permanently disabled not due to their military "service and who can meet certain income and estate limitations.

Editorial-A Teenager's Plea For .... An Extension Of HContinuing Service"
In the last two issues, there has been mention of my writing a teenage column for the Puka Pula Parade. I thought about it for quite some time, but never quite got around to doing it.
Recently a softball team has been staned by Fundee Shirai and when I saw how this one man has given up his precious time, which is usually spent enjoying a game of golf, for the se young boys, I decided that it is about time more people, I for one, also joined in the campaign to include the young generation in ClUb 100's activities.
For months the idea of forming a teenage club, consisting of the sons and daughters of Club 100 members, has been generating much interest, but no initial move has been made.
The adults when planning any function try to include the teenagers, but their efforts are usually in vain for the attendance is so poor. Why? No one knows anyone else!
This club would eliminate this JUSt as the softball team did. My brother who's a junior at Roosevelt never knew that a Myles Nakagawa or a David Nosse existed, even though they all attend the same school. After playing a few games together, there seemed to be a thousand Davids and a thousand Myles around the campus.
The softball team has done a lot, a s you can see, in respect to fostering better relationships with the younger generation. They have already played three games, lOSing the first two (8-0,11-4) but winning their latest (1 7-5!).
They have encountered difficulties concerning the different rules of softball and baseball. We're glad to see such a fine turn out of athletes . . . From Headquarters, Myles Nakagawa, James Oki's son, and David Nosse; the lone representative from C company is Ronald Higashi 's son; and from B Company with the largest representatives are Alving Oshiro, Roben Aoki's so n, the Shirai boys, Nelson and Wesley; The Kawashima boys, Butch and Ronnie; and Ha jime Yamane's son.
Oh yes, and of course, the old reliable pitchers , Moichi Okazaki and James Kawashima. The most credit, though, goes to the manager, Fundee Shirai, who has done a tremendou s job.
Club 100's motto has been "For Continuing Service " and I'm sure you'll agree that our dads have fulfilled it to the highe st degree.
Let us join these valiant soldiers in sharing and continuing their excellent work. The time to start is now!
~ club will be started so please be on the lookout for announcements. And please, For Continuing Service", join us.

Editorial WASHINGTON'S FAREWELL ADDRESS
and Congressman Spark Matsunaga
To the people of the United States.
FRIENDS AND FELLOW CITIZENS: The period for a new election of a citizen to administer the executive government of the United States being not far distant, and the time actually arrived when your thoughts must be employed in designating the person who is to be clothed with that important trust, it appears to me prot\er, especially as it may conduce to a more distinct expression of the public voice, that I should now apprise you of the resolution I have formed, to decline being considered among the number of those, out of whom a choice is to be made.
I beg you, at the same time, to do me the justice to be assured, that this resolution has not been taken, without a strict regard to all the considerations appertaining to the relation which binds a dutiful citizen to his country; and that, in withdrawing the tender of service which silence in my situation might imply. I am influenced by no diminution of zeal for your future interest; no deficiency of grateful respect for your past kindness; but am supported by a full conviction that the step is compatible with both.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Though in reviewing the incidents of my administration, I am unconscious of intentional error, I am nevertheless too sensible of my defects not to think it probable that I may have committed many errors. Whatever they may be, I fervently beseech the Almighty to avert or mitigate the evils to which they may tend. I shall also carry with me the hope that my county will never cease to view them with indulgence; and that, after forty-five years of my life dedicated to its service, with an upright zeal, the faults of incompetent abilities will be consigned to oblivion, as myself must soon be to the mansions of rest.
Relying on its kindness in this as in other things, and actuated by that fervent love towards it, which is so natural to a man who views in it the native soil of himself and his progenitors for several generations; I anticipate with pleasing expectatioc that retreat in which I promise myself to realize, without alloy, the sweet enjoyment of partaking; in the midst of my fellow citizens, the benign influence of good laws under a free government--the ever favorite object of my heart, and the happy reward, as I trust, of our mutual cares, labors and dangers.
GEO. WASHINGTON.
United States, 17th September, 1796.
Presented above are the opening and closing paragraphs of that famous address presented by George Washington as he left the office of the Presidency, Strangely enough, the speech was published rather than actually delivered,
Almost a full 168 years later, this address by George Washington is read, once again, in the House of Represen~atives by Congressman Spark Matsunaga in a delivery which Speaker John W. McCormack (Mass,) termed had never been "delivered better or in a more dfective manner,"
The reading of Washington's speech is an annual ritual of Congress and this year, since February 22 fell on Saturday, the speech was read on Friday, February 21, in both Houses of Congress. In the House, Congressman Matsunaga was given the Singular honor of giving this year's presentation. Congressman Matsunaga read Washington's address in a House which was filled to capacity with spectators and at the end of the deli very, all members on the floor of the House rose and- applauded, and then, although it is customarily out of order for spectators to applaud, all of them arose and joined in the applause, The effectiveness of Congressman Matsunaga's delivery was further atte s ted to by House Democratic Leader Carl Albert (Okla,) who stated that " our colleague from Hawaii has really done a masterful job," and another statement by Representative Leo O'Brien (New York) who said that he had never been more proud of the 50th state, It will be recalled that Representative 0' Brien wa s the House member for the legislation that led to s tatehood for Hawaii,
George Washington's Farewell Address is a long speech (it took Representative Matsunaga 52 minutes to read the address), in which the departing Chief Executive said: "In looking forward to the moment which is to terminate the career of my polit ical life, my feelings do not permit me to suspend the deep acknowledgment of that debt of gratitude which lowe to my beloved country, for the many honors it has conferred upon me; still more for the steadfast confidence with which it has supported me; and for the opportunities I have thence enjoyed of manifesting my inviolable attachment, by services faithful and persevering, ,"
Washington then proceeded "to recommend to your frequent review, some sentiments which are the results of much reflection, of no inconsiderable observation, and which appear to me all important to the permanency of your felicity as a people, "
One of the key points of emphasis by Washington was that America should try to stay clear of permanent foreign alliances and entanglements, He said: "As avenues to foreign influence in innumerable ways, such attachments are particularly alarming to the truly enlightened and independent patriot," Then : "Against the insidious wiles of foreign influence, (l conjure you to believe me fellow Citizens,) the jealousy of a free people ought to be constantly awake; since history and experience prove , that foreign influence is one of the most baneful foes of republican government,"
To Congressman Matsunaga, the Club 100 extends it most sincere congratulations for an outstanding reading of George Washington's Farewell Address,

ABLE CHAPTER Able Chapter will try to take away some of your reduced tax cut money. At the last monthly meeting, the members voted to increase the chapter dues from $2.00 to $4.00. Due to high cost of living plus every one has the "get your money's worth" attitude since they were born. It does take money to finance most of the chapter act ivit ies.
"Meet me at the ball game". Those who really know the real meaning of thi s phrase meet every Sunday afternoon at Washington Intermediate School grounds are "Manager" W. Moriguchi, R. Ishimoto, C. Morioka, K. Yui, A. Arakaki, G. Sumida, J. Sakaki, P. Shirai, T. Nishioka, R. Sato, F. Ikehara, K. Fukuda, K. Kami, D. Yoshikawa, R. Miyashiro, T. Ibaraki and recently married T. Manago - playing under the colors of Miller Hi-Life. Lost only one game so far.
Why does Able Chapter always have their stag night party at Kanraku Teahouse? Every year, Kanraku always sponsors at least one bowling ream. This year, Fumi Taniyama is the captain while Mac Yoshikawa, Tom Nishioka, Eugene Kawaka"mi, Kaname Yui, Paul Shirai and Don Nagasaki are his team mates.
On Friday nights, some of the patrons take the sign of Denver Grill out to Bowl-ODrome. Capt. Carl Morioka is making sure that the sign is right side up while Goro Sumida, Tom Ibaraki, Yutaka Inouye, Ko Fukuda and Sada Matsunami (0) are holding the sign up.
Last call for the Able Chapter Hui members to catch up with dues. Have to pay before May so you will have big share in the money pie.

MEDICS from the medicine chest.
Al bert Yokoyama was elected president of the Medics for 1964, and put into office along with him for the current year were Vice-President Goerge Zakimi and Secretary-Treasurer Genichi Matsumotoya.
Roy Hatakenaka retains his position of Chief Operator. At picnics , he'll hold the grounds by going several hours earlier than the others, after which he'll tend to the hichirin, fetch water, and peel onions. For the Christmas party, he'll shop for the grabbag gifts. And so on.
He keeps on grumbling "never again", but it 's really a case of always and always as the most dependable this-and-thatter.
Currently, there are no mullet report s, but it is pretty well known that Roy is dOing much of his windonw-shopping at sporting goods establiShments, apparently casing the joints for super rods and reels and such. He's said to be dreaming of bigger worlds to conquer--like marlin and bl uefin tuna.
The big 12-strike game continues to elude Shigeru Inouye. J oe Nakayama has disappeared once more. Broth&" Fred is laying low. Shigeichi Kawaoka cackles at the same mart.

Camera Club
Call 94-286
BOARD NOTES March 13, 1964
The Board met on March 11 at the Club House. Treasurer Ralph Ikeda reported that the membership dues are coming in very well so that the operational picture is still in the black:
Charlie Chapter reported that the Bar-b-cue 1/ 2 chicken sale was highly successful, 3,300 pieces were sold.
Headquarters started the ball rolling by donating toward the cost of the range repair, Dog and Medics have followed with donations and the fishing club is taking some action on this matter.
The executive secretary reported that the state-wide ' convention is planned for this year but no definite date has been set. Wait for the good news. The Easter Party on March 22, Sunday, I :30 PM, should gather all the children of the members; the children of apartment tenants and Iolani School faculty are also invited. Rinky Nakagawa and Edward Ikuma will co-chair the affair. Be ready to volunteer for the Heart Study, only those between 45 and 64 are asked to raise their hands. See Al Planas for more detail. Formation of a Camera Club is still pending -why don't you call in and indicate your interest? The Testimonial Dinner for Gen. Francis Takemoto was tremendous, 52 tables were filled.
Many members are wondering what will happen to the future existence of the club so a Long Range Planning Committee has been appointed to make this study. Don Kuwaye started this committee on its way so you can be sure of a report.
The Installation Banquet was chaired by Toshio Kunimura. He and his committee did a wonderful job so the Board thanks them.
It was suggested that the secretary of each chapter, be it on Oahu or on neighbor islands or elsewhere, send in the minutes or a brief report of the meetings so these could be kept on file at the Club House for future reference.
Able Chapter was given permission to hang a plaque of past officers in the lounge. The House Committee will determine the place where it will hang.
We hope to get back the war memorial trophies from Ft. DeRussy which was on loan. We hope, we hope.

GREEN THUMBS The regular monthly meeting of the Green Thumbs Club was held on Monday evening, March 2nd. The business protion Of the meeting was taken care of with grear dispatch by our most efficient preSident, Goro Sumida.
As is customary, members brought some lovely blooming plants that were oisplayed and admired by all. Of special interest to members was the unique use of old nylons. I'm sure all male members of the club now feel that the money spent on expensive, sheer nylons by their spouses is no ionger a luxury item but a necessity as there is use for them even after they are discarded by their wives. We are all indebted to Kazuto Shimizu for his original idea of uSing old nylons to cover and protect his new spikes from bees.
The main feature of the evening was the showing of slides of award winning orchids of 1963 with a running commentary by orchidist, Ben Kodama. We were given pointers on how orchids are rated. Incidentally, some members of the club, Kazuo Kamemoto and Mahjongg Yoshimura, serve as judges.

SENATOR INOUYE ASKS SUPPORT FOR RED CROSS
My fellow Veterans:
A few weeks ago, I was distressed to hear one of my wartime friends tell me that he would never help the Red Cross. He contended that the "Red Cross girls were no good." When I asked whether he had any facts to support his unfortunate accusation, he replied: "No, but I'm certain they're bad because one of my friends told me so." However, as far as my buddy's personal experiences with the Red Cross were concerned, he had no complaints.
I am certain that many of you on occasion have heard other veteran pass on similar rumors about our Red Cross, and, some may be true, because after all, our Red Cross is made up of people just like us -- people with similar weaknesses and shortcomings.
However, a fair objective review of Red Cross activities should indicate that this organization is most deserving of support. I remember the Red Cross lady who wrote my first letter to my parents soon after I was hospitalized in Italy for war wounds. I remember the Red Cross girl who visited me everyday in the hospital. I was constantly supplied with good cheer. I remember seeing several hours after the devasting tidal wave in Hilo, our Red Cross volunteers tired and worn after many hours of sleepless and unselfish work, distributing food, clothing and blankets to the many victims.
I could go on and on relating to you many other personal experiences involving the courage, warmth and understanding of the men and women of our Red Cross. I am certain most of you can recall similar experiences. After recalling these moments of the past, I am certain all of us ml5t conclude that our Red Cross IS truly deserving of our support.
Once again, I am sharing what little I have to help our Red Cross. I do hope all of your will jOin me in supporting our Red Cross.
Aloha,
DANIEL K. INOUYE United States Senator
