"Our problem with that isnot having a substantive studythat will look at the impactthis would have. There shouldbe no uneducated kind of im­position of such a policy. Put­ting at a cap on specific indus­try cases can be enough to cutdown on importarionof alienlabor." s?id',Babiw,i'a:'

Lately, the ballooning alien la­bor population in the CNMI hasproven to be one facet of federalirritationoverCNMl policiessuchthat the proposed moratorium'would provide the local govern­ment a good argument for contin­ued control over immigration.

The most recent attempt ret1ects a warped mentalitywhich in itself depicts instability in the way we considermeasures for both the general public and investorsas well.We constantlychange the rules of the game in mid-stream.Mind you, thisattitudeneeds tobe put toa fullgrindinghalt.Don't you think the Board of Directors is the appropriatebody to address what you've raised as a paper tiger?Where's your sense of logic?

Gentlemen, I've heard too many embarrassing com­plaints about the instability of Marianas Laws, i.e., todayyou wantcertainwork categoriesunder the laborlawsof theCNMI. The very next year, you reinstated what you havejust exempted. If planning isn't your forte, leam to planatleast for a whole week in that your constantly shiftingpositionshave negatively and adversely impacted upontheprivate sector who plan several years ahead of time.

If you will, the notion of privatizing certain servicesunder the utility agency isn't going to go through withoutastudy confirming its feasibility. In the first instance, thepopulation of the islands is too small for any appreciableventure in profitability. The power generation end of theoperation may be a money-making operation. Most otherservices, i.e., water and sewer are highly questionable interms of returns in investment-profit.

At the forefrontof this issue is the legalquestion: Whocanown theassetsof thecorporationwhichincludeMarianasPublic Land? The intent of Article XII is automaticallytriggered for legal pundits to-once again-tinker with.This issue, if you will, may not be altogether prohibitive.Therefore, it is this issue which you as lawmakers mustresearch and discuss at length in concert with the Depart­ment of Interior and the Administration.'" '

The other alternative is to explore the feasibility ofturning the utility agency into a public corporation withownership limited to the indigenous people. It is, in myview, a good alternative to consider given that we are thenatural heirs of Marianas Public Land. It eliminates thethorny question of Article XII and opens up opportunitiesforus toruntheutilityagency,privatelyand profitably.Thisalternative needs to be reviewed and considered by theBoard of Directors in a partnership it has established withInterior and the administration.

The legislatureneedstodig up its reasonsforestablish­ing an autonomous utilityagency. Unless you can improveupon th.e current set of circumstance insofar as the utilityagency IS concerned,youhaveno businesstinkeringwithanagency thatyou've createdandgrantedautonomysomefiveto six years ago. Mind you, you did it for a reason-todepoliticize its management and operations. What you'resaying today is diametrically opposed to the very intentofturning CUC into an autonomous agency.

****Istronglysuggesttoothat thelegislature repealsthe

pertinent law in question. It brings into focus what ourresources can afford, a Toyota Corolla or a LincolnContinental Mark VII. Both cars will get you to yourdestination given that the purposeof transportation is toget from point "A" to point "B".

If we can't afford the sporty Lincoln Continental,then we must make do with our ToyotaCorolla. Quitefrankly, the problem lies in the obviousneed to revamp

The Board of Education will soon discuss and decidewhether to seek extension or non-estension of a lawwhich will ban the hiring of non-citizens teachers bySeptember 1995.

Iam notsurewhatwerethereasonsfor theapprovalof such a law. But it will be interestingto find out justwhat theyare (reasons)inanefforttodeterminewhetherthey're in fact substantive reasons or simply vacuousrationalizations.

WASHINGTON MERRY-GO-ROUND

4-MARIANAS VARIETY NEWS AND VIEWS-MONDAY-NOVEMBER 7, 1994

Bankruptcy lawyerssquandertaxpayerftwnds

WASHINGTON-When the Justice Department's bankruptcy attorneysrecently moved into their new Washingtonoffices, the taxpayers wound up inthe red.

During a walk-through of their brand-new headquarters, lawyers at theJustice Department's Executive Office for U.S. Trustees decided the newoffices were toosmall.They were 30 squarefeetsmallerthan the department'sstandard of 150square feet-and the governmentattorneys threw a fit.

Thenever-usedofficeswere rippedoutat acost to the taxpayersof SI0.203.Agencyofficials explained to government investigators they were afraid thesmallerofficeswould create "tremendous personnel problems." Renovationsforthelargerofficesplus theextra rent paidfor theunoccupiedspace while thereconstruction was taking place totaledanother $237,292.

"Rather than incuning over $247,000 for remodeling and rent on vacantspace," JusticeDepartment inspectors wrote in an internal report obtained byourassociate AndrewConte,"EOUST shouldhave triedother options includ­ing 'living with' the space as it was or ginally constructed."

Ina letterto the inspectors, then-DirectorJohn Logan wrote: 'The attorneysonstaffbelievedthat theywere beingtreatedunfairlybecause they were beingassigned offices smaller than the standard size attorney office in the Depart­ment."

Creatingacorporateenvironmentforgovernmentattorneysdidn't stop there.Tohaveanentrancetothe officeswhich"evidences thestatureand profession­alismof the governmentagency," officialsbilled a $5,000 mahogany-stainedplanter to the taxpayers. Planning and constructionfor the planter alone tookeightmonthsand"numerous phonecalls,faxesandmeetings:' accordingtothereport.

Inside, agency officials highlighted the director's office suite with top-of­the-line laminatedglassinteriorwindows,andhigh-endceramictilecountertopsand floors for his personal kitchen- complete with a sink, refrigerator andmicrowave. The more expensive laminated windows were only installedafterfirst frosted windows and then safety glass windows had been installed andreplaced. The safety glass had to be removed since the officials objected tohaving tiny industryseals in the comer of each pane of glass. Total cost to thetaxpayers: $2,397.

When the hot water heater in the director's personal bathroom stoppedworking, agency officials opted for replacing- it rather than fixing it. Theoriginal hot water heater had been installed behind a sealed tile wall, but theplumbers whoinstalleditagreedtomakeahole inthetile,installanaccessdoor,and fix the hot water heater for free. Agency officials declined, telling theinspectors thattheaccessdoorwouldhavelooked"chintzy."To installasecondbrand-new heaterinanearbycloset,the taxpayerspaidoutanadditionalS1,680.

'The expendituresfor a second hot water heater for the director's bathroomandchanges to the interior glass were wasteful and unnecessary:' the JusticeDepartment investigators wrotein theauditreport."Likewise,spendingalmost$5,000 for a custom-built planter may not be a prudent use of governmentfunds."

AgencyDirectorLogan responded:"We arecommittedtoensuring thewiseuseof taxpayers' money."

NICKEL AND DIMING -The General Accounting Office has a well­earned reputationas thegovernment' s topwatchdogforfraud.wasteandahuse.Yetsometimes the government ends up shelling out big bucks in an effort tosave nickels and dimes.

In March 1993, Agriculture Department employee Cynthia K. Bernardiniasked the government to pay for shipping a portable garage ~dung- with herdouble-wide mobile home when she was transferred to a new station. Therequestwas kicked over toGAO, which has the authorityto make decision, onsuchexpenditures.

By thetime theGAO had finishedprocessingthe request, it pnibably wouldhavebeencheaperfor thegovernment to have shippedthegarage. Aftera year,GAO finally issued case B-252774, which said the government could notreimburse shipment of the garage "even though the employee considered the-garageto bea majorpartofher lifestyleinthemobilehomeandshehaditwiredfor electricity and decorated to match the mobile home."

"A lot of times as soon as we open the envelope that has an employee'scomplaintthetaxpayershavealreadyspentmoremoneyonour salariesthantheclaim is worth," one GAO official told us. 'This bi- bureaucracy has to dealwith a lot of little things that don't justify the big bureaucracy."

Typhoons render DLNR facility unsafeMONDAY, NOVEMBER 7~ 1994 -MARIANAS VARIETY NEWS AND VIEWs-7

THE WRATH of TyphoonsWilda and Zelda has rendered theAnimal Industry compound in AsPerdido unsafe for employees toreport for work, the Departmentof Lands and Natural Resourcessaid over the weekend.

As thisdeveloped the Red Crossoutreach teams are currently pro­viding assistance to villages onSaipan and Tinian in the wake ofTyphoon Zelda.

The DLNR claimed the twotyphoons that battered the CNMIwithin two weeks destroyed theAnimal Industry compound.

DLNR Secretary Benigno M.Sablan temporarily relocated theAnimal Industry Administrationto the Parks and Recreation Of­fice.

On the other hand, in order toassist Governor Froilan Tenorio'seffortsin requesting foi: disasterassistance from the federal gov­ernment, Sablan has requestedcrop/livestock farmers to helpDLNR in completing a damageassessment survey.

· TheDLNJf secretary pointedout that although he has activatedas many staff members as pos­.sible to complete the survey, his

':department is still understaffed._: "If your crop farm and or live­-stock farm has not been surveyed»by DLNR staff member(s), as a'result of Super Typhoon Wilda,·please assess current damages· from Typhoon Zelda," Sablan·urged the farmers ..' Farmers can help in the effortsof completing the goal by con­

"ducting own survey of crops orlivestock's loss.

"Make a list of the types ofcrops and or livestock loss as adirect result of Wilda as well asZelda, and bring your surveylist(s) to DLNR office in LowerBase as soon as possible," Sablansaid.

Meanwhile, Florence Bocago,chairman for the American RedCross Northern Mariana IslandsChapter, disclosed yesterday that86 Red Cross paid and volunteerstaff are presently in the CNMI toassist families affected by ty­phoons.

Bocago said residents of vil­lages should assure that an adultmember of the household is onhand when the Red Cross teamscome through.

Yesterday, outreach teams vis­ited Tinian and the villages ofKagman and San Roque both lo­cated on Saipan.

Bocago said today's visits in­clude Dandan and other villages.

... In a press statement, SelmaChastaine, Director of Red CrossDisaster Operations, said theteams are composed of some 40local volunteers and a like num­ber from off-island.

Chastaine stressed that the di­saster teams are fully staffed,trained and prepared to help thoseaffected by typhoons.

She cited that the damage as­sessment figures indicate thatZelda left more than 700 singleand multiple dwellings destroyedor damaged. .

Chastaine explained that Red. Cross assistance is issued in the· form of disbursing orders to betaken' to local merchants.

It would deny illegal immi­grants schooling, social servicesand non-emergency health care.And it would require police,health and education workers toreport anyone even suspected ofliving illegally in this country tothe Immigrationand Naturaliza­tion Service.

The measure, touching as itdoes uponracism,economicsandfear; has angeredMexicans,pro­voked studentwalkouts inSouth­ern California and mesmerizedEuropeans struggling with im­migration worries of their own.

Most of all, Proposition 187has exposed Americans' deepambivalence about keeping thedoors open for morenewcomers.

A month ago, polls said Cali­fornia voters favored the mea­sure almost 2-to-l. Last week,however, opinion surveysshowed the margin narrowingrapidly.

California, though, is worriedabout morethanitswelcomemat.

AGENDA FOR BOARD OFPROFESSIONAL liCENSING

NEW YORK (AP) - Califor­nianssniffout illegalimmigrantsand tum them in to the federalgovernment. Casinos light upMiami. Handguns vanish fromMilwaukee.Oregondoctorspre­scribe suicide pills to the dying.

None is a reality now, but vot­ersacrossAmericahavea chancenext Tuesday to make these andother changes in their world, inaddition to voting for membersof Congress and state govern­ment leaders.

Inall, they'll decide238 issueson statewide ballots in 37 states,in addition to thousands of localpropositionsinvariouscitiesandtowns.

Taken together, the menu ofissuestellsmuchabouttheUnitedStates and how it uses the ballotin 1994.

Misery, says Rosenthal, "en­compassesdistrust,suspicionandcrime, and all the things that up­set people."

"Misery stems from theeconomy and feelings of perse­cutionand malaise. '" The immi­gration thing (California Propo­sition 187)is an example: fear ofnewness,fear of strangers."
