Possible conflict with CNMI Constitution arises

Laureta now off appeal panel By David T. Hughes managing editor

U.S. District Court Judge Alfred Laureta has recused himself from hearing an appeal in the case of Maria Augulto, etc., plaintiff-appellants vs. Ignacia Villaluz, etc., and the land commission. This sets the stage for a possible conflict with the Commonwealth Constitution regarding the composition of an appellate panel.

Laureta sent a terse five-line fax from Guam early Thursday notifying the court clerk that he would not sit on this case, saying, "The Court, having reviewed the matters on file and heard oral argument of the parties, finds that

recusal is appropriate in this matter." Thus, Laureta becomes the second judge to recuse

himself on this particular case. Last week, chief judge of the Commonwealth Trial Court, Robert Hefner did the same thing, saying "I am a defendant in a similar case."

Article XII's purposes. He rendered a decision in the Aldan-Pierce versus Mafnas case which refuted the Commonwealth law.

Duenas will join Hawaii's Federal District Judge, Samuel King.

Both Hefner and Laureta have been sued by separate plaintiffs alleging that they obtained lands illegally by circumventing Article XII of the Commonwealth Constitution.

But, the new judge scheduled to sit on the appeals court panel, Guam Federal District Court Judge, Cristobal Duenas, has already gone on record being in opposition to

Additionally, the composition of this appeals court panel is in direct contradiction to the Commonwealth Constitution and Covenant which calls for a three-judge panel, with one of the judges must be from the Common­wealth Trial Court.

Opponents of land seizure line up to urge law cha.nges

By Tom Anderson Staff Reporter

Members of the law enforcement community call it "a valuable and needed tool to combat drug use on the island." Others call the present laws allowing the forfeiture of lands for drug offenses a different name.

During a public hearing Wednesday on a bill to delete land forfeiture penalties for marijuana growers those in opposition to the law called the idea of forfeiture an "unneeded punishment and one that threatens the survival of some families."

By the time the long hearing ended, what the on Judiciary and Governmental Operations, Rep. Antonio Camacho, will do with the House Bill remained uncertain.

In addition, to the suggestions made by many to pass the Bill and take away the land forfeiture penalty, there was ;tlso talk of amending the Bill to give the court the right to say which cases of marijuana cultivation would be subject to loss of land and which would not.

That compromise was offered as a possible solution by Associate Judge Jose S. Dela Cruz in his testimony before the committee. The suggestion gained the support of the Drug Enforcement Task Force's

LETTERS 1) the editor·

YOUR • • Op1n1ont

Hey! we never received that stuff . .... Dear Editor: This letter is written in regards to an article in

your Oct 7, 1988 iss11eof the Marianas Variety. entitled "Curfew for kids is still very alive".

In that article. your reporter Tom Anderson. stated that Congressman Greg Sablan's curfew bill will bethesecondtimesuchactionhasbeen passed by the Legislature, and that "a similar bill passed during the Fifth Legislature, but received a veto from·the Governor."

The above statement is erroneous and false. There was never a curfew bill passed by the Fifth Legislature. Although one was intro­duced as House Bill No. 5-133 on 9{2/86, it remained pending, and 'died' with the Fifth Legislature.

Therefore. there was never a curfew bill received by the Governor. Contrary to your reporter's statement in that effect. in the Gov­ernor's letter to the Fifth Legislature, on De­cember 7, 1987, regarding "Anti-Public Build­ing Defacement Act of 1987," he urged the Legislature to pass tJie curfew bill. He stated that" "the passage of the pending curfew bill wowd assist Public Safety in the enforcement of existing laws" regarding vandalism .

Incidentally, in your Oct. 4. 1988 issue. ar­ticle entitled "'.Zoning hearing set", you stated

that "Last week the Senate sent the Groundwater Manage­ment and Protection Act to the Governor". That is also · erroneous. The Governor has not received the said bill as of today.

In your Sept. 30, 1988 issue, article entitled "Flag, new stamp are on NMI House agenda this week", you also stated that "Legislators have sent a bill to the governor for his signature to change the flag of the CNMI". This too is erroneous. The Governor. as of today, has not received such bill.

Please feel free to verify legislative matters that involves the Goveror, with our office. We 're more than happy to give you the facts!

Thank yo11 in advance for allowing me to set the records straight.

I see there is much ado on the Hill about the laws which allow (or force) the courts to seize lands used for the cultivation of drugs. From what I can read from Tom's account of the pro­ceedings much emotion was expressed about the loss of land by drug pushers and growers.

Solons and witnesses went before the Committee weeping and gnashing their teeth talking about how the poor family of the people who lose their land will lose their 'heritage : .. '

Bunk! Look around you. I think

Senator Torres said it best "From what I understand 60 percent of the land has changed hands on the island .. "or some words to that effect

Where is the 'loss of heritage• there? I think they mean 'Loss of big bucks in land leasing.'

Greed is everywhere on this island. If yo11 don't belive me just look at the number of people who work(ed) for the government in already high­paying Jobs who decided they wanted "overtime." and made tens of thousands of dollars.

Look at the rash of cases of

what I call "Indian-Giver" land sales or leases. Greed, pure and simple ..

Look at the politicians who take trips on whims, just because they have the ability to do so with no one to say "no."

All of this talk about wanting the land back "for their children" is just so much sea-cucumber excrement. They want their lands back, so they canjusttumaroundandre-sell it for an even bigger profit

Back to the drug laws; Land sei­.zure, as well as the seizure of other property. is a recognized deterrent to drug trafficking. It's not the "White Man's way" as one witness said. It is a recognized method of punishment and a warning to those who would engage in the same dirty and illegal business

Instead of land seizl!fe, perhaps the growers and pushers of dope on the island wowd prefer the way of Islam when it comes to dope sellers and growers. They kill them - us11-ally by beheading, I understand.

Persm1ally, I like that idea, my­self; but I also favor capitol punish­ment for ml!fder, not a few years in the pokey with liberal "passes" to visit family, as seems to be the case here.

Closed doors to the mind need opening

One of the reason why a person is often told, by wiser people, to keep an open mind is the chance an unexpected treasure may be found behind a door long-closed.

While browsing through the Marianas High School library, I came across a book entitled, 'The Worldly Philosophers" by

1 Robert Heilbroner. 1 Now, I have always been interested in philosophy, and have had my times of rapture with Plato and others who have espoused the airy thoughts of that pursllit. So, I picked up the book only to find it was on economic thinkers like Adam Smith, Karl Marx, Thorstein Veblen, and John Keynes.

I have never been m11ch of a st11dent of economics, which is probably one reason I have never been in good financial shape myself, so I started to put the book back on the shelf.

But I stopped and just opened a few pages to see the style of the author. I found it fascinating how he explained himself and made the book lirim with life instead of just dry abstract thoughts on economics. like I had been ~xposed to in college courses.

It has happened several times in my life that subjects which because of a bad first contact, or a misunderstanding, have later become passions to me.

So it was with "high art" as a person with my family background, lower middle class, was not readily exposed to the "artsy" world. ·

Then, one day I became enrolled in Humanities at the college. Humanities was a required course, so I had to take it. 1

No sympathy from me on land seizures .. the Muslims have a better idea for these crooks

Coming from Florida I am quite familiar with seizl!fes. One guy landed an airplane on a back street'of North Port and lost it in court to the city.Very few law­abiding citizens have a second thought abo11t it.

Land is property-period. No one has the God-given right to use land as some sort of a shield. waving it around as a cultural right to keep. Much of the land here is owned b.y folks or fami­lies who had none when the war ended.

I do NOT agree with talcing the land of someone who is an inno­cent victim, such as the land being used by a trespasser. But. if the land is owned by someone. or their family as a whole, then it should be seized. ·

No one is dumb enough to believe that if a family memberis growing mary jane on shared land. it is not known about by someone in the family. It is the responsibility of whomever has control of the property to tell the offending family member to stop it. and to immediately destroy the plants.

Failure to do so means that the family - and the land - becomes

an accomplice to a crime and has to face the music.

What was all the talk about lawyers using dope? So what? They were not on trial. However, under zero-tolerance laws, not only would they go to jail, they would lose their office, furniture, everything. While it's lrue they can't lose the physical office, zero-tolerance laws can literally strip someone clean.

In the states anyone caught selling or manufacturing drugs (or having a large amount in their possession) can lose their homes. cars, boats, planes - anything.

For once. I find myself aligned with Alex Castro and Ed Mani­busan. SOMETIUNG has to be done to send a message loud and clear to those who deal or manu­facture drugs that they will lose big if caught. There seems to be such an emphasis on land here, the loss of that commodity is the biggest scare since we have laughable prisons.

Use it, by all means. Mr. legislator if yo11 don 'tstand

children. Do you want that on your con­

science because you didn't have enough guts to stand up for what was right?

** ***** Elsewhere in today's issue is a

letter from the governor's assis­tant, Gloria Hunter. She is com­plaining about a story written by us which said the governor has been sent this or that bill.

Gloria is griping that the gover­nor is getting calls from people wanting to know when he is going to sign them.

She says that the governor "has not received them," and chas­~ies us for sating that he has.

Well, all I can say about that iis that we quote what other folks have to say, and we take them on their word that they have done something simple like transmit­ting a bill to the chief executive.

Many times siome of us in the media (one' editor' doesn't want to be included in 'the media' gen­eral designation) shake our heads in wonder at why it takes so long to get things done between execu­tive and legislatibe branches. They are less than 300 feet apart

Typical for the CNMI.

It is very unfortunate that such is the case with U.S. Citizens who are domiciled 011tside the Continental U.S. But if we page through the ana1s of American Democracy, we will never find a word nor phrase in those documents that says that the framers of the U.S. Constitution in­tended to inclllde us in the selection of our national leaders.

sets-in, communication breaks down, nothing else is done other than a full exchange of nega­tive reactions via the newspaper.

For as long as we have this rather unique but strange relationship with the U.S., people at Interior and other agencies as well will simply continue to CONVENIENTLY neglect the very IN1ENT of the Covenant-it is an agreement between two governments-the U.S. and the CNMl. We're 11nique, they (U.S.), strange.

Coupled with the lack of such intent in the U.S. Constitution, there's also absent. by law. and actual provision which spe­cifically mandates a given agency of the U.S. Government to handle insular af­fairs. Thus, we must deal with the obscure designation of Interior.

Furthermore, it is very remote a possi­bility for the U.S. Government to establish an agency. by law, to take care of insular areas• concerns and aspirations. As such, our problems and concerns are relegated elsewhere in the U.S. Government for they do not measure-up in tenns of magni­tude of importance and constituency as that of a state, federal government, or international issues.

While the folks at Interior may mean well in their efforts to assist us, the likes of young hot-shots'in that department who are also incharge of Yellowstone National Park are apt to tum into aggressive postur­ing which often run against the grain of the way we do things out here. Confusion

The confusion that we have seen erupt out of the current relationship goes to show that at the time we voted upon the Covenant that more than half of our people aren't actually ready to decide for self-government. And as in anything else in life, a forced issue usually brings with it MAJOR DEFECTS. Such was and is the case with the Covenant.

Be that as it may, we shouldn't linger 11pon the negative aspects of things which were born when that agreement was approved. We should, instead, endeavor to work with the guys at Interior and the U.S. Congress to rectify and clarify these confusion which have become nothing else buta pile of frustration. If anything, I consider myself very fortunate for being a U.S. Citizen and for having the right to a free speech which permits this humble scribe to criticize the U.S. Government. You don't find that right anywh~re else except under the Stars and Stripes Forever known as the U.S. of A. I'd like to see the day when you

Forces taking sides on land seizure laws • • From page 1

leader, Assistant Attorney Gen­eral Ray Busa.

Judge Dela Cruz, made the first land forfeiture ruling just a few days ago, but he said Wed­nesday that not all cases of mari­juana cultivation O"n land should result in the loss of land by the individual.

For Dela Cruz the question for the committee to consider was whether the penalty for growing marijuana would be strong enough without the land loss provision.

Dela Cruz, along with Buso, and Department of Public Safety Director Ed Manibusan, was asked by the committee to work on a draft for the bill which would give the court more discretion in rulings on marijuana cultivation. Their work is expected to come back to the committee within a week.

Strong support for keeping the law as it is came from Attorney GeneralAlexandro Castro, Buso and Manibusan.

"I believe !hat our children and their futures are our most pre­cious asset, and that large-scale traffickers in marijuana are ac­tively working to corrupt and diminish that most precious as­sets, or children," said Castro.

Liberalizing the law, Castro said, is not the answer; He pointed to the drug problem on the mainland and their new 'zero-tolerance' measures to stop it.

"I think that anyone who is aware of hardship, expense, and heartache that is caused by drug addiction and looks at what has happened and is happening in the United States because of years of neglect and a liberal attitude towards the so-called 'soft drugs' can only shake their heads and pray it will not happen here in the CNMI," said Castro.

!!For these reasons I strongly urge the legislature not to pass House Bill 6-96 but rather leave the Commonwealth with the tools necessary to avoid a future

war on drugs in which our children will be the casualties."

Manibusan was just as strong in his support of leaving the law alone.

"It (the bill) would hamper and frustrate the goal of law enforce­ment in the community," said

Manibusan. He added that passage of the

. bill would send a message which would be interpreted as the Commonwealth being liberal towards the U$e and cultivation of marijuana.

Perhaps the strongest opposi-

tion to the bill caine from Busa. Buso said the current law "is not broken, so why fix it?"

He pointed to the fact that only one case of land loss has been brought before the court by the attorney general's office. That case was one where it was clear the land was being used for large production of marijuana. The drug task force chief added the land was not a place where the individual resided, but was land gained from the government as a homestead.

B uso was critical of attempts to liberalize the laws on drugs and cited the case of the U.S. where those who traffic in drugs have managed to get a strong foothold in the states during a time liberal laws and less public concern for the problem.

"Drug dealers have not yet es­tablished a foothold here," said Busa, adding that the law of land loss was important to see that a foothold is never gained.

Once the members of the law enforcement community had spoken, the committee began to slowly hear more persons who supported the bill than those who opposed it.

· One person in support of the bill was attorney Kenneth Gov­endo.

''The penalty of forfeiture as it stands right now is simply too much," he said. "If you think zoning is bad for the price of land, you should try losing it.~ Land is big money here."

Govendo also questioned just who would gain control of the land which was lost to the govern­ment in years down the road. He severely criticized the fact that in cases involving drug trafficking there is no right to trial by jury.

''The only place where you are not entitled to a trial by jury in the United States is the Common­wealth," said Govendo.

Former Commonwealth Gov­ernor Carlos S. Camacho also spoke in favorof the bill. "Land is priceless here in the Northern Marianas," he said. ''The com­mittee should consider the value of the land itself. Family land is the only assets a parent has other than their kids. Once they lose it, they lose their survival for the future."

Camacho said if law enforce­ment wanted stifler penalties for drug traffickers, in order to re­duce crime, then they should look at other things, like increasing the period of incarceration, higher fines, longer hours of public serv­ice, but not take away the land of the individual convicted of traf­ficking in drugs.

Camacho, as others had done in the meeting, also criticized the current law as being modeled afterlawsofthemainlandU.S. "I do not think it is proper to make the Northern Marinas a testing ground for the U.S. law," Cama­cho said.

Testimony as a private citizen was given in support of the bill by

Nick Santos. S~tos said that he knew of no crime in the past that resulted in the loss of land by the criminal. Even in war, said San· tos using WWII as an example, land is not loss as the U.S. gave back to the Japanese their land.

Vice Speaker of the House, Benigno Sablan called the cur­rent law of land loss another one of the "diseases brought over by the white man to the island."

few other points were brought out and their was talk on just how bad the problem of drug abuse is in theCNMI.

Rep. V. Sablan asked Buso just how much in federal money the task force had gotten. Buso re­plied that the grant was for $247,000.

Of that money, said V. Sablan, how much was spent for educa-

to at least three groups of people who have told him they know of families who are clearing away the marijuana plants on their land because they fear the loss of the land.

Babauta then asked Buso if he himself had ever smoked mari­juana. Buso said he had "experi­mented" with the drug.

Rep. David Sablan asked both

"I believe that our chil­dren and their futures are our most precious asset, and that large­scale traffickers in mari­juana are actively work­ing to corrupt and dimin­ish that most precious assets, or children," said Castro.

Buso and Cas­tro about efforts being made to fight the abuse of other drugs on the island.

"What about heroin cases?" Said Sablan. "Is there land loss too.?"

"The law is absurd, it is wrong and it is incumbent on us the legislature to change that bad law," said B. Sa­blan. He added that even when a man murders an­other person the man's family does not lose their land. Sa­blan was one of the authors of the bill.

Brian McMa-

Liberalizing the law is not the answer; He pointed to the drug problem on the mainland and their new 'zero-tolerance' measures to stop it.

Castro re­plied his office would prose­cute heroin cases.

D. Sablan asked if their were investiga­tions going on to stop the abuse hon, represent-

ing the office of the Public De­fender, spoke in favor of the bill; asking the committee to consider the effects the loss of land has not only on the immediate family but

. other family members as in the CNMI families tend to live in the same village and area.

Once the members of the House Committee, Camacho, Rep. Vincente Sablan, Rep. Juan Torres, Rep. Gabriel B. Babauta, Rep. David C. Sablan had chance to question those at the hearing a

tion against drug abuse? Buso said the way the grant

was written the money had to be used only for law enforcement efforts.

Rep. Babauta wanted to know if Buso thought the idea of land forfeiture was a more powerful deterrent to drug abuse and traffic than educational programs.

Buso said educational pro­grams were definitely a need, but he said since the first case of land loss had been made he had talked

of drugs by lawyers on the island. "Is it true that lawyers here arc

the worse user of hard drugs?" asked D. Sablan.

"I have heard that rumor," said Castro. "We are looking into it

D. Sablan then used the sce­nario of a lawyer, an outsider, getting caught dealing heroin in his office. Since the lawyer, as an outsider could not legally own land he would get a penalty of prison time, a fine, but he would not lose any land. But, said D.

But there came a time when one of them had to to travel to Wl!Shington, D.C. under a leader­ship grant. Visiting the nation's Capitol, he somehow eluded White House Security. He walked into the reception area and demanded of the appoint­ment secretary to see President Ford.

The appointment secretary tried to explain protocol and did everything that is humanly pos­sible to appease the now fuming traditional leader. He wasn't about to listen to anyone, includ­ing his own escort. He turned to the appointment secretary and remarked: ''Tell thePresidentthat although he's met with the King and Queen of England, (pointing at himself) this is a different kind of king."

PSS board committee meets PSS -Existing Board ofEduca­

tion policies for the Public School System are being reviewed to "ensure" that these policies are within the (current) Board of Education's phifusophy of Edu­cation," PSS officials said

The officials said that the PSS Plan for Autonomy, as required by a constitutional amendment, adopted by the current board of Education listed several Board Policies that might nee.d revision.

As a result. Commissioner of Education Henry I. Sablan has fonned a 17-member steering committee to conduct a compre­hensive review of all existing Board policies to make sure that they are consonant with the PSS Plan for Autonomy. The commit­tee is made up of PSS Central Office personnel, school princi­pals, teachers, and parents.

In its initial meeting held on Sept.. 28, the committee elected Chief, Education Planner Juan L. Babauta as its Chairman. The

Can finders are off to big start

The fust National Energy Education Developmen.t (NEED) Recycling Contest is off arid running, in spite of per­sistentrains during the first week of the contest Last Friday, stu­dents turned in almost 1,000 pounds of aluminum cans to M.S. Villagomez' recycling cen­ter in Chalan Kanoa. At the end of the first week of the month­long contest, W.S.Reyes, Mount Carmel, San. Antonio, S~ipan Community School, and Tana­pag were leading the pack in nwnber of pounds collected. The contest's winners will receive water cooling dispensers for their schools, kindness of Saipan Ice Company.

The NEED Committee is very impressed with the extraorcli­nary enthusiasm many students have shown. But it asks that stu~ dents avoid collecting at the dump and that they be sure to wash their hands thoroughly af­ter collecting cans. Bennet Se­man, Deputy Director of the Marianas Visitors Bureau, says that MVB has been happy to contribute bags. However, the demand this past week has been so great that she asks that schools begin recycling the blue bags.

The Committee wishes every school and student the best of luck. For more infonnation about the contest and how you can help, call the Energy Office at 322-9229.

Three cheers for the judge Dear Mr. Editor: I write to express my strong

support for Judge Ramon Vil­Jagome~ decision on the issue of land alienation as it impacts our Constitution and people.

Let me first congratulate the Judge for his bold decision to uphold the Supreme law of our land - our CNMI Constitution. All the accompanying notes maybe by I.he Judge are right on point. After all, who is more of an authority on that specific issue than himself who sat, labored and wrote that Section of our Constimtion. Our Constitution is in good shape

inspite of the fact that some are uying in vain to defame and abuse the substance and spirit for which it stands. It need not be amended as some legislators think it should be to appease some special inter­ested groups.

The decision in the Mafnas case which Attorney Ted Mitchell handled is clearly not detrimental to the investors. What it tries to do is re-emphasize that there be a respect for the Constitution of this land. Investors are welcome for as long as fifty-five (55) years.Fifty­five years is sufficient time for any bonafide investors to recoup any investment it made on these Is-

lands. Once again, that decision by

the court reaffirms the culture value of this small estate from our ancestors. It has a far reaching consequential value to all persons of CNMI descent now and their prosperity.

Very truly yours,

/s/J. Camacho

Educators in NMI favor reforms Public school teachers and

staff have registered "over~ whelming" support for major reforms in the educational system in the Northern Marianas, ac­cording to a survey conducte4 by House Speaker Pedro R. Guer­rero.

Teachers and other Public School System staffers support, by at least 85%, inclusion of computers, tourism, and Japa­nese studies in school curricula, the survey showed.

The educators also voted by a wide margin - 66% to 34% - for implementation of an "educa­tional voucher" system to pro­mote academic competition and excellence among the schools and grades.

Guerrero conducted the survey in April after a guest appearance before the March 30-31 Second

Annual Vocational Education Symposium. As part of his ap­pearance, Guerrero conducted a similar but abbreviated survey of those present at the conference. The participants then urged him to expand the survey to the entire public school system.

The speaker said 75 PSS staff, mostly teachers, participated in the later survey but not all respon­dents answered all questions.

The following were the survey questions and results:

- Should tourism be taught in schools? 62 yes and 9 nos or 87% for this refonn;

- Should Japanese studies be taught? 63 yes and 8 nos or 87% for this refonn;

- Should computers be taught in all schools? 74 yes and 1 no or 99% for this refonn; and

- Should gifted and talented

programs be instituted in schools? 67 yesand4 nosor94% for this refonn.

The survey also asked the edu­cators how they want these re­forms financed. The results also show overwhelming support for three new taxes to support the refonns.

- a surfax on foreign busi­nesses: 69 yes to 3 nos or 96% for the surfax;

- a special tourist tax: 56 yes to 17 nos or 77% for the tourist tax; and

- increased annual alien labor permit fee: 54 yes to 15 nos or 78% for the increasing the fee.

"The results show that the teachers, like the general public, want to sec major reforms in our schools not only to make our education more relevant to the type of economy and job markeL

Ponce-building substation: . from page 40

Camacho, Director of Public Woilcs Jol'.ln Pangelinan and Fa­ther Isaac M. Ayuyu.

Acting as master of ceremonies was Capt. Antonio Reyes. He praised the legislature for helping to finance the station and praised Pangelinan.

"It was only with your support that this dream is now becoming a reality," Reyes said.

Reyes also said that the substa­tion musthave the support of the village in order to accomplish it mission.

In his speech, Lt. Gov. Tenorio expanded on the theme of citizen support for law enforcement

''To stop crime it takes people. It does not take concrete blocks and jack hammers or guns and

· sticks," said Tenorio. "Just having the facilities built

will not mean that there will be an automatic drop in the crime."

However, the Lt. Governor did say that he was pr0ud to see the substation beginiiing its con­struction, and promised more.

''This is only the beginning of a long process of providing the infrastructure support for public safety," he said.

Tenorio added that discussion was now underway to expand the newpolicesubstationtoaddafire department substation.

Manibusan, in his address to the small crowd of dignitaries and village residents, also dwelled on the need for public support for law enforcement.

"We can not do this (fight crime) all by ourselves. The community needs to work to" gether with the police," said Manibusan.

"If the community does not support us, then all of this will have been for nothing." ·"I see this building as being a

symbol of the need for coopera­tion and communication between the police and the community."

The substation building was designed by the Dept of Public Works and will be constructed by J&C Enterprises.

Also in attendance at the cere­mony were cadets of the 7th Po­lice Academy. A short demon­stration of baton combat tech­niques was done by members of the cadet group.

Court panel Eromoaqe 1

quoted \.m; ia w anu .)am u1aL under the Commonwealth statutes, a judge from a local court of record must be on the panel.

The question in local legal circles is now what constitutes a "local court of record." One attorney, Theodore Mitchell, the lawyer for several plaintiffs in land cases, including those against Laureta and Hefner, says that the Federal District Court is not a "local court" in the strictest interpretation. "That's a court of the United States, not the Commonwealth," he said.

The case under appeal has taken a back seat to the problems of the court panel hearing it, but decisions made on the case will.affect the futures of land sales and leases in the Commonwealth.

In a nutshell, the appeal from Commonwealth Trial Court is from Agulto and by extension, the Seventh-Day Adventist Church. Alleg­edly, they violated Article XII of the Constitution by using a third party indigenous person, a church employee to be the sham property owner in order to secure a lease on properties used by the church.

Judge Jose Delacruz ruled that transaction was illegal, based on Article X1I and the fact that the Seventh-Day Adventist Church received direct benefit of the property, not the fee-simple title holder -the then church employee.

The case is all about if a third person can hold legal title, but not receive benefit from the property.

This decision was the first which set off the now chain-reaction period of lawsuits and trials over just who owns the land in the CNML

Close on the heels of that decision came another from Common­wealth Trial Court Judge Ramon Villagomez which returned hundreds of hectares to a family of sisters which had been sold to a third party Chamorro on behalf of a non-indigenous person.

Villagomez ruled that the original sale of the land was void, and thus the land must be given back to the sisters.

That case is in the process of appeal. Then came a set of lawsuits filed against Hefner and Laureta. In the

cases against Hefner, Mitchell and his client alleged that lhe judge paid for the land outright in violation of Article XII.

Laureta also paid for the land in legal question, but lhe title was transferred to a person of Chamorro descent, then leased back from him for SIO.

Laureta later allegedly sold the land and now has no interest in the property.

Borja argued that Laureta and Hefner both were involved in land ownership and would be directly affected, no matter what decision was made.

Thus, both Hefner and Laureta stepped down from the bench on this case, leaving two federal judges from off-island to hear the appeal.

Under the judicial rules set down by the Commonwealth Constitution, such an event was foreseen and the wording of the law is specific, saying lhatajuristfrom alocalcourtofrecord mustsitonany appeals panel.

Attorney Borja suggested that judge Villagomez be designated the second of third judge on the panel, although he had ruled in favor of Article XII in another case. He said that although Villagomez had recused himself from the case being heard on appeal tomorrow, the recusal was based on a personal relationship with a wimess, not the facts of the case.

"Since the case was eventually decided on Constitutional grounds that recusal would have no bearing now," he said.

Police were questioning wit­nesses to the fight, which Reyes said involved Filipinos, late Tuesday evening but no arrest had been made.

Also occurring over the week­end, said Reyes, was a large number of arrest for Driving Under the Influence (DUI).

Fifteen arrest for DUI were made, while police responded to 11 complaints of disturbing the peace, 8 criminal mischief com­plaints, 11 reports of assault and battery, 4 burglaries, 8 thefts, one case of attempted suicide, and police responded to 14 traffic accidents.

"Because of the long weekend, some people started drinking Fri­day night and they knew they didn 'thave to go to work Monday so they just kept on drinking, Saturday and Sunday and Mon­day," said Reyes on the large number of DUI arrests of the weekend.

An accident on the water was also reported to the police as they looked into a call on a tourist who had fallen from her jet ski in front of the Royal Taga Beach Club.

And at the Grotto, it was re­ported that two divers from Aus­tralia had to climb up the cliff side because they had used all the air in their tanks diving outside the entrance to the Grouo and did not have enough air to come back in through the seaside passage.

Reyes also said another inci­dent at the grotto, the death of a Japanese tourist who was diving with a group led by Macro Energy In.c. back in late September, is still under investigation.

Some of the diving gear used by the diver, said Reyes, is being sent to Guam by the Attorney General's office to have it in­spected there. At this point no criminal charges have been made in the drowning of the diver.

Police were questioning wit­nesses to the fight, which Reyes said involved Filipinos, late Tuesday evening but no arrest had been made.

Also occurring over the week­end, said Reyes, was a large number of arrest for Driving Under the Influence (DUI).

Fifteen arrest for DUI were made, while police responded to 11 complaints of disturbing the peace, 8 criminal mischief com­plaints, 11 reports of assault and battery, 4 burglaries, 8 thefts, one case of attempted suicide, and police responded to 14 traffic accidents.

"Because of the long weekend, some people started drinking Fri­day night and they knew they didn'thavetogotoworkMonday so they just kept on drinking, Saturday and Sunday and Mon­day," said Reyes on the large number of DUI arrests of the weekend.

An accident on the water was also reported to the police as they looked into a call on a tourist who had fallen from her jet ski in front of the Royal Taga Beach Club.

And at the Grotto, it was re­ported that two divers from Aus­tralia had to climb up the cliff side because they had used all the air in their tanks diving outside the entrance to the Grotto and did not have enough air to come back in through the seaside passage.

Reyes also said another inci­dent at the grotto, the death of a Japanese tourist who was diving withagroupledbyMacroEnergy Inc. back in late September, is still under investigation.

Some of the diving gear used by the diver, said Reyes, is being sent to Guam by the Attorney General's office to have it in­spected there. At this point no criminal charges have been made in the drowning of the diver.

PUBLIC ANNOUNCEMENT

·The Honorable Senator Joshua Koshiba, President of the Senate of the Olbiil Era Kelulau, Republic of Palau, would like to invite all Palauans to meet with him on:

Date: Sunday, October 16 Time: 1 :30 p.m. Place: Carolinian Utt, Gara pan

Everyone is urged and invited to attend this meeting.

By Tom Anderson Staff Reporter

Court decisions and evidence in the murder trial of Mariana Faisao Mendiola are not over. Stating seven reason for his re­quest, attorney David Wiseman has filed an appeal notice for the convicted murderer .

The appeal notice, filed in late September, gives the following reasons for review of the case:

*Failure of proof of the neces­sary elements of murder.

*Improper, prejudicial and reversible statements of prosecu­tor during closing arguments.

*Inadequate admonishment by trial judge of jury prior to recess.

*Admission into evidence of non-relevant prejudicial evi­dence.

*Admission of testimony in

violation of doctor-patient privi­lege.

*Inadequate and improper jury instructions.

*Defendant/Appellant was denied his 6th Amendment Con­stitutional right to confront wit­nesses against him.

Mendiola was convicted of the Oct 27, 1987 murders of Galen Mack and Remedios Conley on a deserted beach.

He was convicted in late Au. gust and was sentenced by Asso­ciate Judge Ramon G. Villa­gomez on September 19 to serve life imprisonment for the mur­ders, plus kidnapping and 20 years for Robbery.

During the long trial Mendiola was represented by Public De­fender Marty Taylor and was prosecuted by Assistant Attorney

General Edward L. Hayden. At that trial, Taylor questioned the validity of testimony given by Mario Reyes because of Reyes' past criminal record. Taylor also sought to discredit the police photographs entered as evidence which were reputed to be an re­enactment of the murder.

Taylor also tried to cast doubt on the testimony given by a Guam psychologist, saying that Mendi­ola was not intelligent enough to understand the questions put to him during the interrogation by police.

Attorney Wiseman's defense of Mendiola in the trial centered on the death of a woman during a burglary at the Taro Sue Store.

Mendiola was not convicted in that case.

RP base accord said to be near: $500 million pricetag?

MANILA, Philippines (AP)­U.S. and Filipino officials reached tentative agreement for Washington to provide compen­sation of more than $550 million a year to use its six military bases in the Philippines, sources said Tuesday.

The sources, who spoke on condition of anonymity, told re­porters the two sides had nearly finished reviewing an agreement governing the bases, which are the largest U.S. garrison in south­east Asia. An accord on new compensation tenns through 1991 is expected within a week, they said.

In Washington~ a U.S. official who has kept a close eye on the negotiations denied there was an agreement. The official refused to be identified.

The United States now pays about $180 million a year for the bases.

The sources in Manila, who are close to the talks, said negotiatrs agreed on a basic annual compen­sation package of $550 million to $580 million , in economic sup­port, military assistance and commodities, mostly wheal

Filipino negotiators in Wash­ington were bargaining for an additional loan of $100 million to purchase U.S. Treasury bonds, said the sources. The bonds would be used to pay off $200 million of the Philippines' $28 billion debt

Three Manila newspaper said such a loan would be made, but they did not say for how much.

Presidential spokesman Teo­doro Benigno told reporters the size of the compensation package had not been decided on. ~e said officials were still discussing "creative" portions, meaning the debt relief part

Economic Planning Secretary Solita Monsod told reporters .that the propo~ loan figure was too insignifi~t to even negotiate at all.

"It will be able to buy back at most $200 million, which is not worth talking about," she told r,eporters. ·"We should be ta1king about a $700 million buy-back scheme." On Monday, a Filipino source told The Associated Press that the two sides had finished reviewing an agreement govern­ing U.S. bases, and an agreement

on their status through 1991 is possible within a week.

"It's over. An agreement is possible within a few days, maybe withfn a week's time," said the source, who demanded anonymity.

"There was compromise on both sides," said the source, who is involved in the talks. He said both panels were working on the wording of the agreement

In April, U.S. and Philippine panels began talks on the status of .Clark Air Base, the Subic Bay Naval base and four smaller in­stallations in the Philippines. But the talks have stalled over com­pensation and other issues.

Philippine Foreign Secretary Raul Manglapus has been meet­ing with U.S. officials in New _York and Washington since last month on the bases talks. He is expected to return to Manila this week.

The ·united States maintains the bases under a 194 7 agreement which expires in 1991. Thecurent talks are to detennine compensa­tion, base security and other is­sues through the final years of the agreement.

Water i~ lllere ia 'tllem Illar bill~': Sabla11 • • 1f 11J111 page I Spring. The literature shows (old reports on the springs) that it has been recorded to flow in the range from 20,000 gallons per day - to 60,000 gallons of water a day," wrote Good to Sablan in a letter on the project

Good recommended five steps be taken in the e.arly stage of the project First to clear the brush near the springs, locate other springs on Radio Hill, look into linking the springs together, pre­pare a cost estimate of renovating the springs, and to find a funding source. To carry out the initial steps, Good estimated $16,800 would be needed.

Sablan said Nansay has offered to provide $17,000 for the pro­ject's early stage.

Baumer, in his report to CU C's executive director, said he saw potential in the renovation of the

. springs. "It seems the three springs

looked at can make a significant contribution to the water supply for the Tanapag area. Cleaning up the spring sites and connecting them to the pipeline would defi­nitely help the water situation," said Baumer.

The springs show up in old and new reports on the water re­sources of Saipan, such as a study done for the West Japan Water Quality Security Co. Ltd., in November, 1986.

The springs sites are shown on

HOT DOG MACHINES Model 175 CB

amapaccompanyingtherepo~ and the author of the reports also puts in a warning about the excess use of groundwater.

" ... underground water should not be used in general develop­ment of the island so to avoid further water salting. The eco-

. nomical use of 2,000+ mm/ an­num rain water must be consid­ered instead," says the author of the report

The springs of the Tanapag hillside are also mentioned in the U.S. Anny Corp of Engineers study of water resources on the island done in 1959.

The idea for the project, Sablan said, came after Lt Governor Pedro A. Tenorio spoke of the leaks and faulty plumbing be a large part of the water problem.

"A lot of people fixed their leaks but still there was no water," said Sablan.

When asked why he felt CUC had not replied to his letter on the project, Sablan said, "It is my assumption they would rather drill wells than go after spring water."

Sablan said after not hearing from the Chairman of the CUC Board, he finally flagged him down one day as he passed him in his automobile. Sablan was told that the matter had been send to the Executive Director Pete Sasamoto.

-,.~,

House Vice Speaker Benlgno Sablan and Dennis Boaz go back into the hills of Tanapag in search of flowing springs. Sablan said he hopes to find a way to harness the springs and provide usuable water to households from their flow.

902 negotiations on the road Frompage40

this meeting we will be greeted by either good news or bad. I believe that some of the issues can be quickly resolved while others may take more negotiations."

Manglona is leaving Saturday for the U.S.,and he said that he was optimistic about the meet­ings because he was impressed by the 'willing attitude' of Dunlop. ·

"Her approach is like that of the ambassador who worked on the Covenant,; she is open-minded. Unlike her predecessor, Mon­toya, who used to say right off 'no, you can't do that' and lecture us."

House Speaker Pedro R. Guer­rero, will also make the trip to Washington Saturday, and he too expects something to come out of the meeting.

"I always believe at any meet­ing something can be done," said Guerrero. "I hope we can come up with an agreement in at least some areas. It will, of course, depend on the positions taken by the U.S. government

Along with Manglona and Guerrero, others scheduled to be a part of the 902 talks in Washing­ton include Lt Gov. Pedro A. Tenorio, who will head the dele­gation, Rep. Juan S. Torres, Sen. Herman R. Guerrero, Jose R. Lifoifoi and Ricardo P. Villa­gomez.

Lt. Gov. Tenorio, who will be leaving for Washington as soon as the Governor returns from an off­island trip on Tonga, has said he wanted to limit the number of issues discussed at the meeting.

"It is our desire to limit the issues to a manageable number and reserve some of the less pressing matters for the sixth round," Tenorio said.

He has also expressed opti­mism in an recent letter sent to Dunlop ..

"I am sure that with your com­mitment to these negotiations that we noted during your first visit to the Commonwealth m August, we will reach agree­ments on most if not all, of the matters before us," wrote Tenorio in his letter to Dunlop.

The Lt. Gov. said one of the more pressing issues which he wants to discuss in the upcoming meeting is the Mariana Islands Housing Authority bond issue.

The U. S. ·Internal Revenue Service has ruled that the bonds are subject to taxation, while the CNMI claims that under the Covenant, the issuance of bonds is exempt from such taxation.

Senate President Manglona said "the Covenant is very clear. Section 607(a) reads; all bonds or other obligations issued by the Governinent of the Northern Mariana Islands or by its author­ity will be exempt, as to principal and interest, from taxation by the United States."

Other issues include the bank­ing laws and controls of the CNMI.

"I do not think they should tell us what kind of banking laws to have," said Manglona.

The U.S. has expressed con­cern over the CNMI not passing

legislation to require local banks to obtain FDIC insurance. The fact the legislature has also not enacted laws regulating trust companies, and that the CNMI has not enacted legislation re­stricting offshore banking li­censes to competitive, commer­cial banks which are licensed in countries providing acceptable supervision is of Congressional concern.

Another issue which some delegates such as House Speaker Guerrero may be one of the toughest of all to deal with is the issue of Self:.Government and Sovereignty.

"The misunderstanding here, I believe, comes from the fact that those who negotiated the Cove­nant and helped establish the Commonwealth or no longer in the U.S. administration," said Guerrero.

A similar sentiment was ex­pressed by Manglona. ''They are maintaining we are a territory. We feel the U.S. Congress can not legislate on our behalf because we have our own government," said Manglona.

Other issues that were touch on in the last meeting with Dunlop here in the CNMI and which may also be discussed in the next round of the 902 talks in Wash­ington, include trade barriers in specfic General Headnote 3 (A) which put quotas on gannent industries; the CNMI not being a part of U.S. tuna fishery treaties; ocean rights and resources; inter­national relations and regional cooperation.

THE DECEITFULNESS OF SIN

Text: 'Wine is a mocker. intoxicating drink arouses brawling, and whoever is led astray by it is not wise." (Prov. 20:1) ·

The Word of God is a person's only defense against the amazing deceitfulness of the enemy of souls. In the holy Book those who take the time to look find God's repeated warnings to those who love life and not death, not to be taken in by any of the wic1ced one's many devices to allure the unwary away from the path of life.. All his devices, not just wine and intoxicating drink, are mockers designed to lead astray any who are not wise.

There is a true story of a man who took a young boa-constrictor when it was small and began to tram it to gently climb around his limbs. As the snake grew to be of immense size, he made his living by giving public exhibitions with it entwined about him. His friends warned him to be careful, but he laughed at them - HE knew what he was doing - HE could control the make.

One day the snake became angry, as he stood with i.t encircling his body; it began to tighten rnorit and more. He found himself choking to death. He called - or tried to call • for help, but some of his audience cheered, thinking it was part of the play! Tighter now it drew him, until it crushed his bones and he was sll'angled. Falling helpless, he soon died in the embrace of this angry monster that he THOUGIIT he could control.

Now, perverted desire, smoking, "social" drinking, and every habit­forming practice is like that serpent. It always SEEMS to be easily managed AT FIRST, but soon it will become the master to the destruction of its victim's body and soul.

Another proverb adds, 'There is a way that SEEMS right to a man. but its end is the way of death." (Prov. 16:25)

Land seizure From page 5 ''We can not do this (fight crime) all by ourselves. The com­munity needs to work together with the po­lice," said Mani­husan.

Responding to a statement by Buso that "heroin is already here," D. Sablan asked what is being done to com bat heroin use.

The task force was also criti­cized by D. Sablan for some of the tactics it used in its operations.

Sablan told of a case he had heard about where the task force had used a rifle to direct children into an area while a search was being made.

"I don't think this is the Mexi­can borderor the Florida border," said Sablan.

Buso said he had not heard of the incident but he defended the need for caution by task force members and his concern for the safety of his men.

'The work is very dangerous," saidBuso."In the cases about one third of the time there is an illegal fireann found. We do not know what w,e are going to find when we go in there."

Buso said the officers have to even been cautious about chil~ dren, "because officers get killed by 12-year-olds with guns."

Rep. Torres told the witnesses

at the hearing that the question for him was "where do we draw the line."

"How do we stop them from growing marijuana? We want to stab the problem where it hurts. Sincelandissodeartoourpeople then perhaps that is where to stab the problem."

Rep. Camacho questioned Manibusan on the DPS findings concerning the use of marijuana leading to traffic accidents or felonies.

Manibusan said his office has not kept records on the use of marijuana in traffic accidents, but Buso volunteered information on the connection of illegal drugs and the commission of felonies.

B uso said a recent survey in the U.S. reported that in 58 to 78 percent of the felony cases some form of controlled substance was found to be present. .

Committee members agreed to delay further action m{the bill until the report from Boso, Dela·. Cruz, and Manibusan is submit­ted to them.

"If the community does not support us, then all of this will have been for noth­ing."

Pedro A. Tenorio, Rep. Vincente Sablan, Rep. Antonio Camacho, Director of Public Works John Pangelinan and Father Isaac M. Ayuyu.

Acting as master of ceremonies was Capt. Antonio Reyes. He praised the legislature for helping to finance the station and praised Pangelinan.

Substation .. From 0age4o a reality," Reyes said.

Reyes also said that the substation must have the support of the village in order to accomplish it mission.

In his speech, Lt. Gov. renorio expanded on the :heme of citizen support for .aw enforcement.

'To stop crime it takes :ieople. It does not take con­~rete blocks and jack ham­ners or guns and sticks," said renorio.

"Just having the facilities milt will not mean that there ¥ill be an autoqiatic drop in

the crime." However, the Lt. Governor did

say that he was proud to see the substation beginning its con­struction, and promised more.

"This is only the beginning of a long process of providing the infrastructure support for public safety," he said.

Tenorio added that discussion was now underway to expand the new police substation to add afire

department substation. . Manibusan, in his address ro

the small crowd of dignitaries and village residents, also dwelled on the need for public support for law enforcement.

"We can not do this (fight crime) all by ourselves. The community needs to work to­gether with · the police," said Manibusan. · "If the community does not support us, then all of this will have been for nothing."

"I see this building as being a symbol of the need for coripera­tion and communication between the police and the comm.unity."

The substation building was designed by the Dept. of Public Works and will be constructed by J&C Enterprises.

Also in attendance at the cere­mony were cadets of the 7th Po­lice Academy. A short demon­stration of baton combat tech­niques was done by members of the cadet group.

Stands up for zoning Bill: Bashes media

House lashes out at its' critics By Tom Anderson Staff Reporter

House Members have passed passed an 'in-box' full of resolutions Thursday dealing with alternative means for home construction financing, endorsed the three health care block grants for the hospital, took a strong swipe at the news media, Coastal Resources Management, and critics of their bill on a zoning code.

Rep. Juan Reyes chairs the Committee on Natural Re­sources which reviewed the house bill. He said "these people are writing us letters on the bill but they are not

making any recommendation regarding the zoning bill." Reyes said the media had given the impression that the

House took action on the bill with any public input. He said input on the bill had been taken in the 4th legislature and the 5th legislature.

"The media is reporting inaccurately to the public," said Reyes.

Echoing the charge was Floor Leader Rep. Vincente Sablan who pointed out that an often criticized portion of the bill, the one dealing with 2,000 square meters for a home lot, actually reads that two homes can be put on the

·:::::::: .·.·,·.·.·.·.•:::.;.;.:.;.;.;

2,000 meters not one. "We amended that portion and the media did not get the

amended bill, but the old bill before we worked on it," said Sablan. Continues on psae 16b.

Groundbreaking cere­monies for the station were conducted early Tuesday morning, with speeches and much digging of dirt by dignitaries.

The station will be located in the central section of Koblerville as the site of the old airfield. Estimated cost of the station is $24,900.

Director of Public Safety Edward Manibusan said the station would contain a radio, telephone, and office equip­ment for report work, as well as a small holding cell to temporarily hold prisoners until they can be transferred to the main station.

The substation will be manned round-the-clock with at leasttwo officers on duty. Those working at the station will be on shifts so that a total of six officers will be assigned to the new substation at Koblerville, Manibusan. said during the ceremonies.
