Exchange Students: Says Troy

At a reception held July 31 in his honor a t the home of Mrs. Lydia Me Carter, re­cently named W om an of the Year by the Honolulu Com­m unity Chest, F rank Troy Dem ocratic candidate U.S. senator, said he favored a plan “w hereby the youth of Hawaii m ay spend a t least a year in a M ainland hom e and school and a M ainland young­ste r can spend an equivalent time in an Island hom e and school.

“The great m ajority of Ha­waiian people have only an academ ic knowledge of what the M ainland is really like,” Troy said. “The typical Main- lander still th inks of Hawaii as a rem ote Island Paradise b ut he has little concept of the g rea t p a rt th a t the people of Hawaii can play in world affairs.

“I t seem s th a t we can w ork out student exchange program s for everyone else b ut cannot seem to get mov­ing on a m utually beneficial program fo r ourselves.”

- H er hom e is in Manila.)During the m ore than tw o

years I have been in the United States, I have fre ­quently been extrem ely dis­tressed by the conduct of my fellow Filipinos in the U.S.

Unlike th e girls

Manila, m any Filipias here drink, smoke, hold hands and date.

The grave loss of virtue which is apparent h e r e troubles me.

YOUNG' FILIPINOS, al­though not as highly edu­cated as the younger genera­tion in the U nited S tates, also tend to look down on their elders.

I have-been advised to “get

into the fun,” and “enjoy it.”But I rem ain a harsh critic

of overly-Americanized Fili­pinos.

Have they been so w est­ernized, so urbanized th at the a rt of being friendly has been lost? New York, which I have visited, has a large Filipino population. I t is dif­ficult for a sensitive person to understand how a people so charm ingly hospitable to foreigners a t home can be so

indifferent tow ard others w hen here in a foreign land.

IT’S LIKELY th a t if Fili­

pinos here find out w hat I have w ritten about them , I will be ostracized.

Nonetheless, I do not shrink from my opinions. I am proud of our mores and conservatism. I am happy for the w ay in which I have been brought up.

I am proud to be a Filipina.

E D I T O R I A LYou Can Seek Peace,

MANY AMERICANS SEEM TO BELIEVE th a t peace- m ongering is the exclusive prerogative of Communists, Com­m unist sym pathizers, persons w ith suspicious leanings to the left, and assorted nuts.

But here and there, all about us, ordinary— and patriotic— Am ericans are doing w hat they can to insure a peace of some sort.

A RECENT EDITORIAL in Redbook m agazine indicates

th at m any of us certainly don’t w an t to be Red.Nor dead.The editorial reads, in part:“W e th e children of th e w orld . . . do not w a n t to be th e la s t

generation . W e do n o t w an t to die before w e have had a chance to live.”

This m essage, signed by 3,000 A m erican children, w as recently sen t to th e U nited N ations G eneral Assembly. I t is only one of m any spontaneous expressions of a desire for w orld peace tha t have been arising in recen t m onths all over th e United S tates.

A grow ing num ber o f A m ericans — particu la rly w omen and children — are dram atiz ing the ir opposition to nuclear w ar.

In W ashington, D.C., M rs. Dagm ar W ilson, an illu stra to r o f children’s books, m et w ith a few friends la s t Septem ber to discuss th e ir concern over the arm s race. W ithin a few w eeks Mrs. W ilson found herself leading 900 w om en to the ga tes of th e W hite House and th e Soviet Em bassy to deliver le tte rs u rging M rs. Kennedy and M rs. K hrushchev to persuade th e ir husbands to p u t an end to w ar. “W e decided it w as up to the wom en,” M rs. W ilson explained, “ because the m en are trapped in th e course of daily events.”

and Still Be a PatriotIn California a business executive’s w ife decided to send $1,000

to the U nited N ations instead of using the m oney to build a fallout she lte r for h e r family. In N orth Carolina 28 fam ilies m ade the sam e decision in the belief th a t “ the only hope fo r m eaningful sur­vival lies in the creation of law and o rder on a world scale.”

H ousew ives and students have expressed the ir hopes for peace by publishing new spaper advertisem ents, by d istribu ting leaflets, by w riting to the President, m em bers of Congress and ou r represen ta­tives a t the U nited Nations.

O ur elected officials, charged w ith the responsibility of preserv­ing ou r national security in a dangerous world, m ust deal con­stan tly w ith the risk s of nuclear w ar. I t is im portan t to remind them th a t th e A m erican people also support the ir efforts in taking w h a t th e W orld Council o f C hurches calls “reasonable risks” fo r th e sake of world peace.THERE IS NOTHING UNPATRIOTIC about urging our

governm ent to seek an honorable peace, although many of us seem reluctant to stand up and speak out.

Unfortunately, m any of us who so ardently hope and pray for peace lack the organization of groups advocating m ilitant action. W e lack the money. W e lack high-priced spokesm en and propagandizes.

IF YOU WOULD like to express your desire for peace. The Filipino Herald suggests th at you w rite a letter or postcard to the President, and to Hawaii’s Congressmen. Pledge your support of our governm ent’s efforts to settle world problems by negotiation . rather than force.

And if you agree with w hat has been said here, you can sim ply sign your name and address to this page, and send it to President Kennedy, The W hite House, W ashington, D.C.

Now Jim m y, be a good boy and run along to W ashington. W e need Billy a t Home.”

A COURAGEOUS STANDForm er Rep. Spark M atsunaga is to be commended for

his recent courageous and forthright stand on therm o­nuclear testing.

In his formal announcem ent of his candidacy for the U.S. House of Representatives, M atsunaga stated: “I am con­cerned about the lack of discussion among leading Con­gressional candidates on this m atter. I feel th at every can­didate should be so concerned with peace he should discuss his position openly.

“This is a critical period where by pushing a button u tte r destruction can occur. I believe nations can settle their differences a t the conference table.

“W e ought to constantly reappraise our foreign policies, our policy regarding therm onuclear testing, policies toward so-called unfriendly nations a s well as friendly and neutral nations, and through such reappraisal follow a course th at will insure world peace.”

M atsunaga’s firm stand— at a time when candidates are eagerly engaged in building favorable images for them ­selves— is not only heartening, it is rem arkable.

I t is rem arkable not only for its honesty, bu t for the ob­vious integrity apparent in assuming such a position. A seasoned politician like M atsunaga does not have to be told about the possible consequences of aligning himself w ith w hat is generally conceded to be an unpopular view.

Some of those in the business of professionally plotting political campaigns are already beginning to count the votes M atsunaga will surely lose by his forthright declarations.

But for every vote he loses, he can take heart in the knowledge th a t he will gain votes from an ever-growing segment of our comm unity who have expressed approval and admiration for the positive position he has taken , in this im portant issue.

In an age when d issent has become synonymous w ith dis­loyalty and conscientious, patriotic citizens are fearful o f expressing them selves, w e w ould lik e to reitera te a sta te ­m ent someone once made:

“Courage isn’t lack of fear—-it’s standing your ground in spite of it."

Much of the credit goes to Mrs. Alejandro Yango, who directed the whole operation. She, as well as her assistants worked long and arduously to bring off what was, next to the Bayanihan Dancers, one of the most memorable Philippine representations in Honolulu ever presented.

Philippine designs need not fear taking second place to Parisian couturiers. In fact, the general consensus seemed to be th a t a fte r th is initial showing, in which so many Honolulans w ere pleasantly surprised a t the highly original creations presented P arisian designers h a d be tte r look t o their- laurels.

Based on reactions here and a t the Seattle W orld’s Fair — Philippine designers have m ade quite an impact in the fashion world.

San Miguel Brewery and Consul and Mrs. Alejandro Yango deserve special recognition for their efforts in making

possible to our com­munity.

“Karilagan” and the Bayanihan Dancers represent what The Filipino Herald hopes will be only the beginning in what may be regarded as a shining example of “the new Philippine image abroad.”

Of it” h a s -been the m otivat­ing thought behind Mrs. Eliz­abeth Ragaza’s success as m other, housewife and active church* civic and comm unity worker.

The form er Elizabeth Du- malao was born in Spreckles- ville, Maui, the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Clemente Du- malao. She is Ilocano but speaks. Tagalog which she learned at home. (Her hus­band is Tagalog.)

Mrs. Ragaza was educated on Oahu. H er in terest in family

living, cooking, civic affairs and, people has taken

her through a Dale Carnegie course, Chinese cooking, corsage

m aking and parliamentary law. Among h e r hobbies

are collecting recipes, and pictures of homes and gar-

d e n s . This has inspired her c rea tiv ity in entertaining and fable-setting.

Mrs. Ragaza is the m other

of five children— four boys and one girl. She believes in firm discipline, beginning a t an; early age. She also be­lieves in a love for children th at plays no favorites.

Her only, daughter, M aria, is now Sister M aria, a nun

of the Order of S isters of St. Joseph of Carondelet in Los Angeles. Victor, Jr., the old­est boy, is a graduate of St. Louis High. He is a sales clerk a t Leeds Shoe Store, and is the newly elected re­

retired as chief stew ard, he is employed as stew ard of Oahu Prison’s Food Service Unit.

Both husband and wife are a team when it comes to cooking for en tertainm ent at home. The children help with the preparations.

Mr. Ragaza’s favorite re­cipe is chicken currey. A fru it salad, rice and cascaron (a doughnut-like dessert) completes the menu. They en-

when i t seemed th a t she would have to supplement the family income a t the time it appeared the husband’s leg would be am putated. But ex­cept for a slight limp, Mr.

now has use of both legs.

Mrs. Ragaza did not go to work until the children were in school.

Mrs. Ragaza’s list of past activities is long. She is past president of the Filipino Navy W ives Club, past presi­dent of Filipino Catholic Club, and w as program chair­m an for St. Louis High School.

An enthusiastic club w ork­er, she lim its herself to part time w ork, and the chairm an­ship of St. Theresa’s Filipino Catholic Club.

Long-Needed Serv iceDear Miss Medina:

Your very inform ative and well p u t to ­gether publication “The Filipino Herald of Hawaii” is the answ er to a long needed service to our Filipino people of Hawaii. The activities and contributions of the Fili­pino people since their arrival in Hawaii is given recognition .and proper coverage.

I am, however, in disagreem ent w ith a sta tem en t in your editorial o f April 25, 1962, in which you say th a t the Hawaii Filipinos have long been ignored. Contributions to our largest industry, agriculture, by the Filipinos have alw ays been recognized. A place of respect has also been attained, in the m any professions, the business world and in politics by our Filipino people and the p ast record as outstanding as ft is, I am cer­tain will be overshadow ed by the contribu­tions th a t will be m ade in the fu ture tow ard the civic, economic, and educational struc­tu re o f our state.

M ay I ex tend to you and the members of your staff a very sincere Aloha and best wishes for a bright and prosperous future.

Very tru ly yours,THOMAS K. COOK, Chairm an & Executive Officer, County of Hawaii

Sign Season Again Dear Miss Medina:

W ith political candidates announcing each day th a t they have “decided to run,” The Outdoor Circle looks forw ard w ith trepida­tion to the forthcoming deluge of posters. This g rea t storm of signs th a t descends on Hawaii every election year is not a thing of beauty.

Candidates are , in all probability, now ordering the signs th a t will soon cover our landscape. May we urge these candidates, in planning their campaigns, to use as few signs as possible arid to ‘avoid the “bill­board” size. M ay w e also remind them that no signs, of any size, are perm itted along Federal Aid Highways or on public property.

Several candidates of both parties have already indicated their willingness to cooperate on proper posting and prom pt removal of signs. M ay w e take this opportunity to urge every person who seeks pub­lic office to do the same. I t is also our hope th a t on th is election year, w e will have few ­er signs posted for a shorter period of time than ever before.

Sincerely,MRS. GEORGE J. WIMBERLY Signs Chairman,The Outdoor Circle

Richardson 'Kealoha Is Forgotten'W illiam S. Richardson,

Dem ocratic candidate for lieu tenant governor, lashed o u t a t Governor Quinn, for “apparently forgetting th at t h e L ieutenant Governor should be appraised of all m atters and functions of the governor’s position itself.”

“According to the G over­nor’s fancy public relations, w e m ust, I suppose, all w ear rose colored glasses, Republi­can sty le ,’ Richardson said.

“R ecent press reports even have the present Lieutenant Governor confirming this in­action, and lack of comm uni­cation w ith the m an who, as pointed out by our S tate Con­stitution, should have the same qualifications as the Governor.”

Richardson said, “It’s about tim e fo r some positive an­sw ers,” and asked Gov. Quinn six questions:

1. “W hat w ould happen if the L ieutenant Governor should suddenly have to take over as governor?

2. “W ould the Lieutenant G overnor be able to w ork as a liaison officer, w ith the local legislature, and national ad­m inistration?

3. “Has the present lead­ership properly defined the L ieutenant Governor’s du­ties?

4. “W ould the Lieutenant Governor be fam iliar w ith all p h a s e s of adm inistrative

w ork in all departm ents of the state?

5. “W ould the continua­tion of the present admini­stra tion perm it the L ieuten­an t Governor to be a real as­set to the state?

6. “Would the continua­tion of the present admini­stra tion give the L ieutenant Governor the proper a ttitude and working companionship th a t would perm it him to step into the stringent day to day duties of the governor­ship?”

“I don’t intend to try and answ er fo r the Governor,” Richardson said, “but I’m sure th at steps have not been taken to ‘backstop’ the Chief Executive, nor has there been any endeavor, as far as I can see, in correcting the lack of comm unications w ith his as­sociate, and others in his ad­m inistration.

“Certainly a continuation of the present adm inistration is clearly n ot to the benefit of the people of Hawaii.

“There has been no direc­tion of purpose. Normal pro­cedures and rules of conduct seem to be lacking, even if the patented press releases try to refu te these conditions.

“Given the proper perspec­tive, I am sure the people of Hawaii will see the fallacies of th is adm inistration, and return a real people’s govern­m ent to the State th is No­vember.”

Following our analysis of the Jack Burns’ political p icture, The Filipino H er­ald received a num ber of ira te calls from devoted Burns supporters.

M ost of the callers took sharp issue w ith w hat they felt to be an inaccurate and un­fair appraisal of Burns and his loyal follow­ers. One caller, a devoted precinct worker, took g rea t pains to deny th at there was any tru th to our version of the S tate Democratic convention. /

I t was not true, s tated the caller some­w hat Vehemently, th a t the convention was “ a sparsely attended affair,” as reported here. Nor w ere the members “dispirited or fragm ented.”

C ontrary to w hat we w rote in this column, our caller insisted, “even the m ost rabid form er anti-Burn s members are now joining forces to actively help elect Jack governor.”

One letter-w riter cried: “I have to laugh a t your editorial proclaiming yourself to be ‘non-partisan’! The comm ents you have been running remind me of the kind of editorials the Star-Bulletin w rote against Burns In the ’58 election. W hy don’t you be consistent?”

Before taking up the Bum s issue, we would like to first elaborate on the non­partisan policy of this newspaper.

This colum nist enjoys the rare privilege of complete freedom w ith regards to the ex- pression of any and all views printed here. As stated above, our views m ay not always coincide w ith those of .The Filipino H erald’s.

The Filipino Herald is the ONLY news- paper that reports non-partisan political news . . . unbiased reporting . . . news never slanted to please any special in- terests.

“Non-partisan” as defined by Miss Teddi Medina, editor of this paper, means that members of BOTH political parties shall be accorded equal treatment. Both favor­

able as well as unfavorable com m ent may be printed w ith no special regard for party affiliations.

Our statem ent th a t “those who run w ith-

o u t Burns’ blessing got very little support from the Burn s-controlled Democratic party” has since been borne out in the recent pub- lic squabble which resulted from Secretary Udall’s now fam ous dinner.’

A long-time politically active Filipino con­fided recently th a t there is w idespread feel­ing th a t “Burn s is making the same m istakes w hich lost him the governorship the last tim e he ran.”

May the Bum s p arty w orkers tak e heed while there is still tim e . . .

Speaking of the Udall incident, Frank

Fasi was reportedly seen recently emerg­ing from the Bum s’ campaign headquar­ters clutching some of Jack’s campaign stickers. Mebbe they have “kissed and m ade up”???

TALK OF THE TOWN: Num erous reports are reaching this colum nist of the increasing evidence th a t m any voters are “defecting” to Kealoha’s camp . . .

Governor Quinn has denied a report th at

he told S tate A ttorney General Shiro Ka- shiw a to refrain from investigating the re­cent m erger of H onolulu’s two m ajor dailies unless M ainland in terests become involved in the financing o r m an ag em en t. . .

W hile w e are on the subject of Quinn, here’s an interesting prediction given us by a “fearless” pundit, whose fearlessness did not extend to the point of allowing his name to be published. His conjecture: Frank Damon will resign to help Bill in his cam­paign and Carlos Ramelb will be “tem porar­ily appointed to replace him in an effort to Win Filipino votes.”

Ah, w hat a tangled web ;

Ju a n Pakuan, a legendary figure in Philippine folklore, is th e pen-nam e of a locally p rom inent citizen . O pinions expressed by Mr. Pakuan a re en tirely his own and do n o t necessarily reflec t th e views o f The Filipino H erald.

Among such m easures proposed are: (1) Improvement of land tax collections, updating and correction of inequalities in assess­m ents; (2) a m ore extensive and system atic tax collection campaign; (3) improvement of public m arket and slaughter­houses which provide a big portion of municipal incom e;,(4) submission to the Finance D epartm ent of the annual budgets of local governm ents; and (5) adoption of stric t economy by avoiding unnecessary expenses.

A JAYCEE STUDY on the Emergency Employment Act pointed out th a t it does not go deep into the roots of the un­em ploym ent problem because of the tem porary nature of the gigantic em ploym ent opportunities it is supposed to generate.

TRAN SPO RTATIO NA PARKING GARAGE construction project involving a

P 5 million outlay was proposed by M ayor Antonio Villegas to the Bureau of Public W orks. The projected parking ga­rages, to be located in M anila’s busiest sectors, will greatly solve the c ity’s traffic congrestion woes and a t the same time induce o ther revenues to liquidate their construction ex­penses. There are . still construction difficulties which have to be ironed out before the BPW approves the project.

The Bureau of Commerce has initiated a move to hold commercial and industrial expositions in eight strategic re­gions in the Philippines in order, to prom ote g reater inter- provincial and inter-regional trade flow. The project calls for participation of local governm ent officials.

This m eans th a t the prohibition of conversion of “B” sugar into “A” sugar should have been imposed sooner.

A f t e r t h e B l a s t W h a t ?W e thought w e had a p retty good feature in the las t

issue w hen w e ran a full-page, tongue-in-cheek editorial th a t “explained” the frequent delays of the Johnston Island nuclear tests.

Trouble was, because of a production snafu, much of the type w as unreadable. So here i t is again,

Jose P iy ar (whose nam e rhymes w ith g u ita r) flopped down on the b a r stool nex t to his long-tim e pal Jack Nuss­m ann.

He ordered his usual — a “20th C entury On-the Rocks.” (T h a t’s a double m artin i w ith o u t the ver-" m outh. J u s t about everyone’s fa vo rite tranquilizer, these days.)“You look as though you have the w eight of the en tire

w orld on your shoulders, amigo,” Jose, who didn’t drink, said between sips of tom ato juice. (Instead o f m artin is Jose practiced yoga.)

“Like, m an, I do, I do,” wailed Nussm ann.“So, le t’s have it— w hat’s your problem ?” Jose smiled. “ I t ’s my latest assignm ent,” Jack replied sadly. “W hat

a d illy!”“So tell m e, tell m e,” urged P iy a r, “m aybe I can help

you w ith it.”“I don’t know if you can, amigo,” Ja ck shook h is head,

“th is one is a real tough one.” And tak in g a deep slug o f h is drink , swallowed and blurted i t o u t: “ I go tta sell the Blast to the people!”

Jose le t ou t a whistle. “ Wow! Like m an, th a t IS a rough

o n e !” H e took a double sw ig o f his tom ato ju ice and thought a m inute.

Suddenly a gleam came into h is eyes and snapping his fingers, cried joyously: “ I got i t! I know ju s t how. you can do i t ! ”

“ So tell me, tell m e!” Nussm ann cried excitedly. “Okay,” his pal told him , “ju s t don’t in te rru p t because

I am th ink ing th is out a s I go.”N ussm ann settled down comfortably, an ticipation shining

“W ith all those wom en marching around in W ash­ing ton and people all over the world w orried s ick about - this, you have got to overcome tw o th ings first, as I see i t ,” said Jose.

N ussm ann nodded reverently.

“So w hatya do? F irs t, you g o tta s ta r t by changing the im age of th is here m ushroom cloud.”

“Oh, i t will requ ire real P R genius,” N ussm an agreed.“The press releases have got to be coordinated, see?

Y ou have all th a t H iroshim a and N agasaki s tu f f to live down. So the first th ing you do is to s ta r t telling them w hat a rare trea t th is w ill be. You could s ta r t w ith words like ‘spectacular’.“G re a t!” N ussm ann cried, w arm ing to the idea. “How

about a few w ords like ‘aw e-inspiring’ and ‘beautifu l’?” “Now, you’re pick ing i t up, m an!”

Jose nodded, “ Those a re good words, h u t I still th in k th e key w ord is ‘spectacular’—you know, as a m atte r of fact, w hy not build it like one o f those teevee spectaculars?”

“Joe, m ’boy, you’re a g en iu s!” P iy a r sm iled modestly. “You fo rge t, i t ’s m y line of w ork.”

“ Yeah, b u t w ithout us—you’d be o u tta business;” Nussmann rem inded him.

Jose, ignoring th e las t comment,- took ano ther drink of' h is tom ato ju ice. “T his is a s tra ig h t P R jo b and you have, go tta follow the usual line. W hich m eans you m ust be repetitive. You know the old saying “ I f y o u 'rep ea t someth in g often enough, they’ll believe it every tim e. R igh t?”

“ R ig h t!”

“O ne o f the m ost successful g im m icks in s h o w b iz is a th ing called “audience participation,” Jose told N ussm ann thoughtfu lly . “I th in k yo u should also w ork

Jose finished trium phantly.

“Joe, you’re te r r if ic !” N ussm an laughed delightedly, “th is will be th e g rea te st selling jo b since E isenhow er!”

Jose nodded. “Be su re and suggest th a t P ap a b ring M ama and the kids. They could even b rin g lunches.”

Suddenly N ussm ann paled. “Gad, I fo rg o t something, Joe. W hat’ll we do about the fall-out jazz?”

“S im p le ” Jose sm iled indulgently a t h is friend . “You ought to know th a t one. S ta tistics, man. Y ou p r in t a lot o f figures saying th a t u p to so m any degrees, the s tu f f can’t h u rt anybody. Nobody really knows, do they?So who w ill argue w ith you?”

N ussm ann smiled again , his eyes filled w ith adm iration

“Now,” Jose pushed aside the compliment, “let’s get down to business. Remember, coordination is the im portan t th ing. You have got to keep up the excitem ent and in terest. Let’s see—you’ve built in te rest and excitem ent w ith , words like ‘spectacular’ and ‘aw e-inspiring.’ You need one o ther th ing .”

“W hat’s th a t? ” N ussm ann asked w ith bated breath. “Suspense.”“Suspense?”“Jack , I ’m su rp rised a t you—w here’s your fla ir fo r the

“you have got to have suspense. W ithout it, like audience participation , you’ve got no show.

“I t ’s like t h i s ” Jose told him . “You’ve got everybody looking forw ard to this spectacular, righ t?”

“R igh t.”“Okay,” Jose pointed out slowly, “so w ith the g re a t

“ I t ’s like the w olf bit. Everybody’s w aiting b u t i t doesn’t go off!”

“R ig h t!” Jose cried, “ Man, like get w ith i t! IT D O E SN ’T GO OFF!”

“ And the second n igh t?” Nussm an asked.Jose shook his head . “ Negative, man.. Uh-uh. N ot th a t

“B u t w ha t do w e tell them ?” N ussm ann w anted to know.

“That’s your problem,” Jose said w ith exasperation. “T ell them the w eather w as bad, or the moon w asn’t brigh t enough— tell them anyth ing!”N ussm ann suddenly s a t up. “ joe , by golly, you A R E a

How to Work Wonders WithFacts, Figures

H arry A. Victor, who conducts a research and consulting service th at frequently polls Islanders to get their opinions about issues ranging from television fare to hom etown faults, has prepared an interesting exhibit th a t .shows w hat can be done w ith facts and figures.

I t would seem,- in fact, th a t alm ost ANYTHING can be done.

VICTOR’S ALOHA POLL of Public Opinion interviewed 203 adult respondents in W aipahu about President Ken­nedy’s M edicare plan.

From the results, and using the same se t of figures, V ictor’s staff prepared tw o reports— one favoring Medicare, the o ther opposing it.

The articles, reprinted below, clearly show the im portance o f objectivity in analysis and .reporting of survey results.

M ore than seven out of 10 W aipahu residents showed(71% ) of all those interview- a very low level of aw areness ed had heard or read about regarding the Kennedy “Med-
