F our Marianas Legislators were among a group of representatives of the Trust Territory who participated in United Nations Trusteeship Council meetings in New York this week. Appearing as petitioners from the Mariana Islands were Senators Olympia Borja and Edward Pangelinan, Congressman Herman Q. Guerrero and District Legislature President Vicente N. Santos.
All four of Lhe Marianas leaders spoke before the Council. Each sought to spell out to the Council, which includes representatives of the U.S., Russia, People Republic of China, Great Britian, France and Australia, that permanent affiliation with the United States is the desire of the people of the Marianas.
Senator Borja developed an historical theme, saying "when American soldiers came to Saipan in 1944, they were truly our liberators. The yoke of the Japanese empire weighed heavily on our shoulders for thirty years before then; the people of the Marianas were little better than slaves, cogs in the Japanese Militaryindustrial machine. We could not speak our own
' language in many places; we were relesated to menial jobs; we could not

C T U.N. T EK SECRETARY GENERAL SPEAKS AS TRUST TERRITORY naEGATI<Jf LOOKS (l,l
United Nations, New York (MNS) Tuesday's opening session of the United Nations Trusteeship Council was highlighted by the presence of U.N. Secretary General Kurt Waldheim of Austria. Appearing before the first meetings of the Truste-
Benaven e For
eship Council since he took office as secretary general, Waldheim spoke briefly to the delegates.
Waldheim noted that since its formation in 1947, the council had already seen nine of the eleven original Trust Territories exercise their

rights of self-determination and join in the Community of nations. He said that this was a significant measure of the success of the international trusteeship system.
He added that as the council began its current meetings, there are encouraging developments taking µlace in the two remaining trust areas, New Guinea and the Pacific Islands Trust. These developments include the recent elections in New Guinea in which a coalition ministry was formed as another step toward self-government and independence. Waldhei~ also noted the succes~ ~f the recent future polittcal status negotiations be' ween the U.S. and the Cr. -gress of Micronesia JS
acknowledged in a joint communiqu issued at the conclusion of the recent status talks in Palau,
The Secretary General concluded his remarks hy saying: "I am confident that the Trusteeship Council, with the cooperation of the ad inistering authorities and in collaboration with the other United Nations organs concerned, will soon make it possible for the people of '-'icronesi a and Papua-New r.uinea to exerci e their right to self-determination and to determine their future in

Saipan - Luis Benavente, Principal of Marianas High School, said this week that his mind is set pn running against the incumbant mayor Sablan this June.
Benavente said he sought the support of the Popular Party to run for mayor but did not get the necessary vote for nomination.
Benavente said he then decided to run on an independent ticket. He said that he would run on the Territorial Party ticket if endorsed by that party, but so far no one has approached him.
Jesus Mafnas, Chairman of the Territorial Party, ,however, told Marianas Variety Tuesday that his party has endorsed Benavente to run on the Territorial ticket.
The thirty three-year old principal said that he became interested in running for the office of mayor four years ago.
The former school teacher said that the present administration has been in office too long nd has b come somewhat stagnant. He aid the present Municipal admini tration has done v ry little to meet the needs of the people.
When ask d if he would elaborate on this statement, Benavente pointed out the rod conditions in the villages and farm ar a sex mples.
Saip n' mayorial 1 ction will be held Sunday, Jun 11.

Saipan - Mayor Vicente Sablan has once ·again received the endorsement of the Popular Party to run for mayor in the June 11 municipal election,
The mayor said that at first there were some questions as to his eligibility to succeed himself, He said that a municipal charter amendment passed early this year stipulated that the mayor cannot succeed himself. The mayor, who is now serving his second term, said that his first understanding of the councils' decision wa.s that he cannot run for mayor again.
The Mayor, however, pointed out that a letter written by Councilman Pedro T. Nakatsukasa to the Attorney General specifically asking if Sablan could again run for the same office has been answered. The mayor said the Attorney General told Nakatsukasa the amendment places no restriction on the current mayor's wish to succeed himself in the next election.
Sablan said he ha~ trong support of the
Popular Party and many priv te citizens to seek re-election.
When asked what his pl tform will be, th£• m yor said t th mom ,,r cannot give detailed information regarding tie subJect.

Saipan - There are two political parties on Saipan, Popular and Territorial. Many observers have wondered what the difference is between the two. Prominent leaders of both parties revealed this week that there are no philosophical differences between them.
Saipan's political parties were formed in 1961. the first such organizations in the Trust Territory. They were one-issue groups. The Popular Party favored integration with Guam, and the Territorial Party desireq outright annexation by the United States.
Since their formulation, the two original parties have remained strong. Their ultimate goals have always been the same ••• membership in the United States political family. Only their emphasis and proposed methods have differed. Now, political evolution seems to have brought the two factions together ••• at lease ideolog-ically.
According to Jesus Mafnas, Chairman of the Territor-ial Party, "the ultimate goal of our party is to see the people of the Marianas become American citizens. We are for Commonwealth ••• for direct annexation by the United States.
"Just ":ecently," Mafnas said, "the Popular Party changed its position and began favoring direct annex-· ation instead of union with Guam."
Popular Party Vice-President Daniel Muna sees nothing wrong with this, saying ''before, we were told that direct annexation was not possible. One U.S. Congressman told us that the U.S. had made a mistake in granting Puerto Rico Commonwealth status and that it would not happen again. We saw integration with Guam as the only way to get what we wanted," he said ,
Things are different now. The United States has agreed to negotiate with the Marianas pursuant to a separate political status. Before, both Parties were walking down different paths toward the same objective. Now it &eems that the paths have joined. As Danny Muna says: "I personally don't see anv difference s'o I hope both parties would join hand in hand for the best interest of the people." .
Though the ideological stance of both Parti~s is now the same, there remain individual differences compounded by a decade of political battle. Perh ps it is the time for both political parties to recognize their common dedication to the same goal nnd to join together burying the old anamosities with the old ideas.

the water -in Chalan Kanoa tasted as come clean and fresh straight f:rom the reef,
It was so salty that when I rinsed vegetables in it, they turned into picl·les ! When I would boil a , pot of ca, in order to pour it 1 had to chisel a hole in the mineral crµst that would form on the surface.
The water these days is somewhat better. Fortunately, though, it is still not quite palatable and most people prefer rain water, Fortunately, I say, because of the recent water austerity program. 'lou see, w have hundreds of leaky pipes in the villng , To save water, the entire eyscem is shut down every fternoon nd ag in at night, When this ie done, a tremendou vacuum foms in the pipes an<l all the 1 ak l.cak in reverse (w lk down the ro d and you' 11 hear them hissing,) They leak in

raverse, cleansing the ground of the ' outpouring of trash piles, sinks and showers, outhouses, dead animals., cfripping oilpans, etc. polluting the entire pipelinei, so that by the time the leaks leak properly again, it's best you don't drink the water.
One Public Works official at Headquarters (are there any heads up there?) told me I was wrong; that Saipan' s new sewer system had eliminated outhouses and ground water pollution. "The sewer is treated nine times before it reaches the outfall," he said, Living on the Hill, he didn't realize that the sewer will only serve I the hotels and a fortunate few private homes. Down in this district, perhaps three out of 86 houses have flush 1 toilets, and to my knowledge none of these connect to sewer. People here can't afford flush toilets and expensive plumbing (remember the leaky pipes?) Even those on the Hill complain about the price of toilet paper. But I digress.
The health hazard appears to be one aspect of the water convervation program ~vhich Public Works has over-' looked. It appears that Health Services has overlookec it too, or perhaps Dr. Peck's policy of non-interference with other departments prevents Sanitation from takinr action.
Another factor Public Works might not have considered is juvenile 11 delinquency"--all those dirty little kids turning on showers, hoses and faucets and, finding no water, not knowing enough to tum them off, Water cascades from many an outlet for many an hour before some · one happens along to turn it off,
Suspension of water service has meant suspension of pollutants in the water. Of course, there are no simp1~ solutions; the water we dri.nk is a compound solution. In the meantime, those of us without rainwater will just have to put up with the crud in our coffee.

IT :WHAT What youths can do to help m~ke the Community a better place to live?
There :ire so many things t,ll! youchs can do. In beautifying. the conin'lunity like cleaninr the villages, pub lie beaches, picking up trash and planting new trees etc~; being a good leader in the community, demonstrating good examples, such as respecting the laws; minimize youth problems, by avoiding fights and not cutting classes and seeking for higher education etc.; must build better communication among youths and between the youth and the parents.
But how can this be accomplished? These things can only be accomplished through a ~asic-and fundamental cooperation among the youth, parents, community leaders ~overnment officials and the people in the community. Without a sound connnunication and cooperation, we find it hard to get things done as we wanted or expected.
Good examples are the work of District No. 4 Mod Squad, Tanapag Boy Scouts, San Antonio Youth Club.
Dear Edltor: A number of times at Funeral Processions, uhether the pe0ple are walking or riding in cars, cars have passed, without any regard to local custom and respect also for the dead. A few weeks ago at the Procession of San Isidro, in Chalan Kanoa two cars passed from behind along t~e side of the road, showing a lack of respect for local custom, the religious nature of the procession, and the people. I know that such processions, especial lv near the time of the ;irrl.val or departure of planee, are an inconvience to pconle going to the airport:, but there are other road.., ,l1 Leh cari be used to pass by ·the main road anJ route ot the ~recession. Such driving is a &anger t, thn people and children in the processions, not to say a disregard for the religious sentiments of the people taking part in the processions. Father Arnold

NAVY BLOCKS Saipan - Mobil Micronesia wants to expand its facilities on Saipan but the Navy Department is standing in its way, according to a news report on Saipan radio station KJQR.
Interviewed this week by KJQR, Lucky Tarkong» area manager for Mobil, stated that the oil company is proposing to put up four ~ore gas tanks to meet the anticipated demands of the big airlines which will be

MOBIL PLANS landing on Isley .field. ''!arkong added that Mobil currently has a ,212,000 gallon capacity in their jet fuel tanks, a compara~ tively small amount considering the fuel consumption of big jets. Tarkong .·said that Air Micronesia averages about 3,000 gallons per refuel. The 707 jets would be using up to 6,000 g~llons per refuel.
According to the report, Tarkong said if the Navy would,approve the company's expansion plan, then Mobil Guam ~ould move its offices to Saipan. If the Navy disapproves, then they would have to look for some other place to put up the additional tanks.
The Navy's position is that the proposed expansion would only impede the orderly long-rang~ development of the harbor fer both military. and civilian use. They contend that the water-front area should be used for harbor oriented facilities.
The Navy feels that Mobil should move its operation now rather than expand it only to be forced to relocate at some future da;e.

The documents indicate that Dillingham plans to invest $350,000. in structures and i~provements on Tinian. The giant Honolulu based corporation intends, if the lease is approved, to build warehouse and office, rock crusher, concrete and asphault batch plant, hollow block plant as well as a water well and reservoir.
from the Tinain Council. The Board "felt the request was purely speculation on the assumption that relocation of the U.S. Military on Tinian is inuninent."
Final decision on th1 Dillingham lease was e~ pected at the Thursda Land Advisory Board, according to its chairman Daniel Muna.

Senator Pangelinan's words came precisely to 'the core of the issue. "Simply stated, Pangelinan said, "we are of the opinion that the Unite,d States has more to offer Micronesia in (the area of economic development) than any other nation .•• A brief glance at the possessions, territories, and other memhers of the United States political family makes it clear that a
l close ..• 'relationship can ensure that degree of economic development which our people desire."
Both Senators reiterated to the Council that a break with the other districts of ~icronesia is inevitable. Said
1Borja,
"the idealogical schism which separates our peoole 1A from the people of' th~ other districts became all 1
I ' to apparent--and too pro-nounced to ignore any l~n;. ger."
Acknowledging that\ manent associa~ion the United States is not a ticket into utopia, Senator Pangelinan said "we are not afraid of possible abuse under such an arrangement .•• We know that the United States is not a perfect country; in today's world, we doubt whether any country so large and complex could be. llut., he stressed, 'w• are satisfied that the United States Constitution offers us enough latitude, to be able to ·protect our people from oss of tneir lands or wholesale economic domination by outsider and also to control the rate and nature of this development at a satisfactory level."
