Jose M. Taitano Appointed Mayor man of the Board of Education. by Dan Phillips

Assistant Mayor Jose M. Taitano agreed to finish the term of the late Gilbert C. Ada, sched­uled to end January 8, 1990, after being formally requested to do so in a letter from Acting Governor Pedro A. Tenorio.

"It is imperative that this im­portant position be filled promptly," Tenorio said in his letter to Taitano, dated March 2.

Luis Limes, who finished sec­ond in the last mayorial election, turned down the appointment, citing his responsibilities as Chair-

"I am well aware of your activi­ties in the Mayor's Office," Ten­orio told Taitano in the letter. "There is no question in my mind this appointment to the position of Mayor of Saipan is in the best interests of Saipan and the Com­monwealth."

Tenorio also acknowledged that Taitano'scurrentpositionasChair­man of the Board of the Common­weal th Utilities Corporation could pose a conflict of interest

However, the letter also said, "There is no statutory reason you

cannot hold both positions simul­taneously."

The State funeral for the late Mayor Adahas been setforThurs­day by the CNMl government.

Flags have been lowered to half­mast throughout the CNMl until Thursday to pay tribute to the late Mayor.

An honor guard and 17-gun­salute will be performed Thurs­day.

Ada was elected Mayor of Saipan on January 10, 1986, after being the DirectorofCommunity and Cultural Affiars since Decem-

Windsurfer, Nearly Killed A Year Ago, Returns To Saipan

by Dan Phillips Japanese tourist Akitoshi 1ima returned last week to

urf in the waters where he as nearly killed by a hit-and-

speedboatayear ago, and to the people who helped

ve his life. Kojima,27, of Tokyo, says he completely recovered from

accident that happened b 13, 1988, just off Man­Island.

. He had suffered five broken

ribs on his .left side and had a small puncture hole in his liver, and spent about two weeks at Commonwealth Health Center, under the care of Dr. Igor Ni­kishin.

Kojima, whose stay here was from Thursday through yesterday, said he returned to "go windsurf­ing and to express appreciation to the Department of Public Safety and the hospital, and to let people know 1 am back to normal and OK."

Jose M. Taitano ber, 1978.

Ada, born on Christmas Day in 1939 in Garapan, had been work­ing in government since 1955, when he was a laborer for the Naval Administration Land Man­agement Office.

He was a technical surveyor for the land office until February, 1956, then as Ordinance Mechanic for the Dept. of Supply for the Naval Technical Training Unit until April, 1958.

He was a storekeeper for the Naval Station Hospital Medical Supply from May, 1958 until August, 1963.

Palacios Pursuing Help For Local Construction Companies by Dan Phillips Rex Palacios, Executive Direc­

monthly meeting of the Saipan Chamber of Commerce.

He also rejected a proposal by the legislature that would require the CDA to hold public hearings on all of its loan applications.

Banks consider construction loans high-risk, Palacios said, because they are short-term in nature, because most companies' financial records are not prepared properly, because most construc­tion companies are non-bondable, and because many local construc­tion companies overextend their resources .

He also said that he felt there is an "inconsistency of skilled man­power," which he explained to mean, "reliance on alien labor to provide technical expertise (as opposed to less skilled positions)."

Palacios promised to meet with officials from Bank of Guam and Bank of Hawaii to see how they

could combine to help local con­struction companies. "I believe there is money to be made by local companies, companies which should be able to partici­pate in the booming development on our island," he said.

To open his discussion, Pala-

cios told the Chamber members and honored guests why he op­poses Senate Bill 6-135, which would require CDA to hold pub­lic hearings on every loan appli­cation that comes up for review by theCDA.

"There's nothing the public can

do to help us (CDA) make the decisions. We withhold proprie­tary information, so the only in­formation the public would have access to is very general in na­ture," he said.

Marianas Representative:

ISLAND PEOPLE HAVE RIGHTS ON AGREEMENT WASHINGTON (AP) _Rep­

resentatives of the Common­wealth ofNorthern Marianas have warned Congress that people of the islands have reserved the right to re-open orreject the 1986 agree­ment creating the commonwealth.

Testifying on budget requests bytheBushadministrationforthe fiscal year beginning Oct. 1, two commonwealth officials said last Friday that if consultation "does not produce results, the people have asked for the opportunity to reaffinn,rejectorrenegotiate" the agreement.

That request, said Benjamin T. Marglona, president of the Commonwealth Senate, and Pedro R. Guerrero, speakeroftheHouse, was contained in a 1987 referen­dum approved by commonwealth voters.

Their remarks were in testi­mony submitted to a subcommit­tee oftheHouse Interior andlnsu­lar Affairs Committee.

'We ask that Congress not pass laws that frustrate our desire for full control over our internal

affairs. We ask that Congress not entertain legislation that treats the Northern Marianas as a territory orpossessionoftheUnitedStates," the two leaders said.

They listed grievances of the Pacificislandcommonwealth this way:

"Only persons of Northern Marianas Island descent shall own land in our islands. Our claims to internal sovereignty over our marine resources shall be reeog­nized. We must retain exclusive controloverourimmigrationlaws. The U.S. territorial and commerce clauses shall not apply. Our mu­nicipal bonds are tax free. The composition of our Northern Marianas Senate, as agreed upon in the covenant, must be recog­nii.ed and respected by the U.S. courts."

The island government has been dismayed that the federal government has not recognii.ed its claim to jurisdiction over an area of the seabed as large as Afghanistan, and has permitted residents of other u.S. Pacific

territories and former territories to emigrate to the Northern Mari­anas.

The territorial and commerce clauses of the U.S. Constitution give Congress the right to govern territoriesofthe UnitedStatesthat are not states, and to regulate

commerce between the states and with foreign countries.

Gov. Pedro Tenorio appeared in support of the Bush administra­tion's request for $13 million in operating funds for the common­wealth and $20.85 million in capital grants. He and the two

legislative leaders appealed for an additional $28 million over an unspecified period to add to the $10 million contributed by Con­gress in the current budget and $13 million from the common­wealth for port rehabilitation on Saipan.

The old saying goes, "Arose by any other name would smell as sweet," and that is true. But still names are important to people and places. The Hebrews believed a name revealed inherent knowl­edge of a person and that if you knew anyone's name, you knew them intimately.

It's interesting to learn how or why certain places got their names. I grew up in Miami, Florida, and legend says when the Seminole brave told the young Indian maiden how lovely she was, she replied, "My,am 12" and so Miami

Recently the subject was dis­cussed at a dinner party with sev­eral conjectures of the similarity of the spelling between "Saipan" and" Spain." One person surmised that possibly the Spanish named the island "Spain," and the Chamorros didn't approve; there­fore rearranging the letters to change the spelling. Another suggested that if the Spanish did call it "Spain," maybe the letters "sp" were difficult for local people to pronounce, and with the in­digenous accent it came out "Sa­pain." They might've looked at the Spanish approaching and said, "Here come those Sa-paniards." If there's no connection between

I believe that those wishing to be licensed under this category shall pass the rigorous structural engineering exam-inations as well as meeting the required years of established practice. In the inter­est of the public, this is one of the few highly specialized areas of engineering where its practice should be strictly regulated.

Personally, I have taken several structural courses on complex structural ship design operating in dynamical environment and as I know then and now, ·"engineer­ing structures shall never be compromised."

It was recently mentioned that the U.S. needs more exposure to the name of the Northern Mari­anas so people will stop asking, "WhatisaSaipan?" or "Mary Ann who?"

3) I would like to see some public education about the vari­ous engineenng disciplines be­cause of the general miscon-cep­tion that a licensed professional engineer can do just about any engineering work competently. This is simply not true because that is why we have professional engineers in civil, mechanical, electrical, etc., eachcontribut-ing its own competency in the com­plete design of any engineering structure.

In the months ahead, we will use this medium to provide our people with some insights of the problems which have been beset­ting our islands and people as well as some solutions toward mini­mizing their effects on our stan­dard of living.

Governor's Cabinet Discusses Current Issues by Dan Phillips Several areas of concern were

discussed at last Wednesday's meeting of the Governor's Cabi­net and immediate staff.

Acting Governor Pedro A. Tenorio, presiding over the meet­ing in the Governor's absense, began by announcing the news of the death of Mayor Gilbert C. Ada.

Public Works Director John Pangelinan said that the Landfill Committee would make a survey of a depression area at Marpi for

consideration as an alternate landfill site. A depression in the Koblerville area is also under consideration at this time.

Pangelinan also said that an aerial survey would be taken of the route along Texas Road, to consider alternate routes. The government is planning to upgrade Texas Road to give motorists an alternative to the congestive Beach Road traffic.

Acting Governor Tenorio asked Edward Manibusan, Director of Public Safety, about theavailabil-

Windsurfer-----From page 1

Although he said he was not afraid to return to windsurfing following the accident, he admit­ted he was checking around to make sure there were no speed­boats nearbywhile he windsurfed here.

Kojima, who works for Nippon Telephone and Telegraph Com­pany in Tokyo, said this is the fifth

. year he has come to Saipan to go windsurfing .

Captain Antonio Reyes, Chief ofBoating Safety, said that regu­lations regarding boundaries were improved as a direct result of Kojima's accident.

"We now have two small boats to patrol the reef and enforce the boundary lines," said Capt Reyes.

He said that no boats are al­lowed to operate in the swimming zones, the jet ski zones, and the windsurfing areas.

Pangelinan Named __ From page 1

He has also served on the Lib­eration Day Committee and has been involved with the Flame Tree Arts Festivals.

Pangelinan is a member of the Cultural Preservation Committee of the National Conference of Historic Preservation Officers.

He is currently the Chairman of the Board of the Commonwealth Council for Arts and Culture, and

he is a member of the Coastal Resources Management Advisory Council, the Boy Scouts of Amer­ica.

In addition, he serves as Presi­dent of the Northern Marianas Little League Baseball Associa­tion.

"In my opinion, Mr. Pangeli­nan is very well qualified to serve as Director," Tenorio said.

Personnel Officer Jesus Mafnas said that some of the people living in government housing are start­ing to receive notices from the CUC that corrective work must be done or their power would be disconnected.

Mafnas said that the CNMI government is responsible for

paying for the repairs, but that his office is not budgeted for these expenses.

Acting Governor Tenorio said the CUC is trying to enforce things which have never been enforced in the past.

Tenorio was skeptical of the CUC's findings because "most of the government housing has been built by the U.S. Government, and the highest standards have been followed."

The Acting Governor asked Mafnas to put his concerns into

by Dan Phillips This is the second in a

two-part series featuring candidates for the title of Miss CNMI. The four candidates from Saipan were shown in I a st Thursday's issue. The candidates from Rota and Tinian are featured in this issue. The Miss CNMI pageant will be held this Saturday at Ppcific Islands Club.

Noreen Sablan, 17, from Rota, is a senior at Rota High

School. She is attending MHS during her three-week stay on Saipan to prepare for the pageant.

She said she wants to attend a four-year college, possibly the University of Seattle, Washington, to pursue a career in nursing.

A native Chamorro who was born in Saipan, Noreen spent time in Guam, Rota, Hawaii, and Saipan when she was younger.

Noreen, who enjoys volleyball and studying math and science, said that if she becomes Miss CNMI, she would look forward to "representing our islands to other countries in the world."

Frances Cepeda, 17, was born and raised in Tinian.

She is working at Tinian Health Center as an assistant laboratory technician, and says she wants to become a lab tech.

The daughter of Luis and Trinidad Cepeda, Frances is a graduate of Marianas High School.

She said she eventually wants to attend college in Washington or Oregon to pursue her ambition to become a lab tech.

Frances Cepeda Frances, a native Chamorro,

enjoys dancing (especially disco), swimming, and reading (especially romance novels).

She says she would "like to see the children of the CNMI be more educated," and also would like to sec "politicians required to be qualified for their positions, just as officials are in other professions."

Also at yesterday's meeting, Luis Turango of the Southwest Business Industry and Rehabilitation Association asked the Chamber for its help in placing qualified handicapped people in jobs.

The Chamber members were asked by the Board of Directors not to testify on Coastal Resources Management hearings in support of hotel projects, due to the fact that the issue is a very sensitive one in the community. The Board did, however, allow written comments to be made to CRM.

Five new businesses were welcomed as members of the Chamber yesterday. The five are: Kwek's Enterprises Saipan, Inc.; Emilio's Main Street Salon; Sablan's Management Services; Marianas Tug and Barge, Inc.; and Marianas Garment Factory.

The Chamber announced the recipient of its first quarter 1989 beautification award. The Pacific Gardenia Hotel was awarded a plaque for "its continuing efforts to keep Saipan clean."

The Chamber also reported that it had a visit frotn a delegation from the Chiyoda Chapter of the Tokyo Chamber of Commerce on February 19. The 15 Japanese company officials were here on an exploratory trip.

It was also announced that the Chamber's one-day tax seminar was a success. Joe Arnett and Bob Steffy, both CPA's from Guam, presented helpful information to about 106 Chamber members and non-members.

In its March Bulletin, the Chamber repeated its strong support for House Bill 6-25, which would establish a Zoning Code. The Chamber feels that a Zoning Board should be elected, and not appointed by the Governor, and also rec om mended stiff penalties for violations of the code.

Also of concern was the need to include Rota and Tinian in any zoning. The Chamber also said it would like to work with the legislature to adopt a building code once a Zoning Code is passed.

The Chamber reaffirmed once again in its March Bulletin its stand in favor of banning poker machines, and said that,"if our elected officials cannot ban poker through legislation, then we request the legislature to bring the issue to the people for referendum."

Hopwood, Marianas High Break Ground by Dan Phillips Hopwood Junior High

School students and staff held one minute of silent prayer for the late Mayor Gilbert C. Ada at its groundbreaking ceremony last Wednesday.

Students and staff members stood under a light morning drizzle and others sat under the classrooms eaves as they watched several local dignitaries put on hard hats, grab shovels, and break ground, marking the beginning of the construction of eight classrooms, a cafetorium, and a physical education building.

These facilities, contracted to J.J. Enterprises at the cost of over $737,000, are scheduled to be completed December 18.

Before the actual groundbreaking, several dignitaries made speeches eulogizing the late Mayor, who was elected in November, 1985.

Lt. Gov. Pedro A. Tenorio said that he "was saddened by the untimely passing of Mr. Ada," and that "the CNMI has lost a great leader."

Henry I. Sablan, Commissioner of Education, repeated Tenorio's sentiments, and urged the school's students and staff to ask the Board of Education to name the new classroom building to be constructed "Gilbert Ada's Building".

Both Tenorio and Sablan said that Ada has done a lot to improve Hopwood and other schools in Saipan.

Lt. Gov. Tenorio, representing Governor Pedro P. Tenorio while he is off-island, said he was a student at Hopwood from 1954-1957, at a time when the school had only quonset huts.

He said he returned to Hopwood as a teacher in 1965, when the school had already begun to have cement buildings. Tenorio said he taught General Science at the school for one year.

Anicia Tomokane, a member of the Board of Education, said that although she was not a student at Hopwood, she visited the school twice as part of student exhanges with her Mt. Carmel classes.

She said that she was sorry that the students would have to put up with the noise from the construction site, and she cautioned them not to stray near the site, to avoid getting hurt.

Commissioner Sablan said he attended Hopwood in the 1960's, and that the last building he remembers being constructed there was in 1968, when the Social Studies wing was built.

Sablan said that the new facilities were possible because of the hard work of many government leaders, both in the legislative and executive branches.

He also credited the Public School System, along with the government, with getting $6.59 million in Capital Improvement ·Funds from the

Architect; and Juan L. Babauta, former PSS Education Planner, for their efforts in formulating the PSS Seven-Year Plan, which resulted in the

Mayor, told the students that he remembered Hopwood because he taught there in 1954. He recalled an experience when he and his fellow teachers made hollow blocks that would later be used to start building the ceinent buildings that would replace the quonset huts.

Other guests at the Hopwood groundbreaking ceremony included Pf A President Edward M. DL Guerrero, Father Roque Bitancur, PTA Vice-President Lourdes Mendiola, Marianas High Vice-Principal Isao Ngirbabul, and personnel from the contractor (J .J. Enterprises).

fit theclientortheCDA,and there is already a public forum pro­vided," Palacios said, going on to explain that law requires CDA. to make its meetings public.

However, Palacios also admit­ted that the CDA Board of Direc­tors often shuts up when ap­proached by the media "I don't agree with that approach, but it is their prerogative," he said.

"The applicant would not bene­fit by the whole island looking at their application. In fact, it would provide· no benefit other than giving the public another item to gossip about," said Palacios.

There seems to be some genu­ine concern regarding whether or not local construction companies are getting their fair share of the islands development As Palacios

said, "We wonder iflocal compa­nies are actually participating in this construction boom and, if so, what the extent of that participa­tion is."

"CDA realizes that local banks tend to stay away from construc­tion loans, and wewanttohelpthe smaller, local companies," he said.

He gave an recent example of wherealocalcompanycouldhave been given the CUC water meter­ing contract, but ended, up being subcontracted to by a French firm. "Why don't we award the contract to the local finn that is actually doing the work?" he said.

Palacios said that the alien la­bor problem is one that every nation faces in times of rapid de­velopment "The White House was built by black slaves," he

THIRD ANNIVERSARY

ROSARY

said. "Every economy goes through a period when it needs cheap labor."

"The CNMI government, in its haste to open up economic devel­opment and invite foreign invest­ment, invited in foreign labor."

Jose C. Tenorio suggested that construction companies can be bondable if their applications are made with the condition that the money can only be used for con­struction (no diversification), and that companies can provitle col­lateral for loans.

Palacios said the reason most local construction companies are not bondable is because their fi­nancial papers are not prepared properly and because the compa­nies are not financially sound.

FRANCISCO DELEON GUERRERO ALDAN Would like to invite our relatives and friends to the Third Anniversary Rosary for our beloved son and brother, to be said at the residence of Mr. & Mrs. Ignacio C Aldan in Garapan behind Aldan's Gas Station. The nightly rosary will be said at 8:00 p.m. starting on Thursday, March 9, 1989 and will end in Friday, March 17, 1989. The final rosary will be said at 12:00 noon. The Anniversary Mass of Intention will be on Friday, March 17 at 6:30 p.m. at Kristo Rai Church in Garapan. Dinner will follow thereafter. Your thoughtfulness and prayers will be greatly appreciated.
