So if any of you have any questions or concerns <br /> you would like to express at this time, I will be glad to <br /> try to answer them. Or do you have any other suggestions, <br /> I certainly would be glad to try to work it into the ballots. <br /> As I say, I don ' t pretend to be an expert on ballot <br /> preparation and I 'm trying to give it a very commonsensical <br /> kind of approach. I 'm trying to look at it in the terms of <br /> the voter and considering the problems that resulted from <br /> the Constitutional Convention.. <br /> You will notice each question is subsequently <br /> followed by a brief explanation. The purpose of that is to <br /> be sure that. . .well , to make it unnecessary for voters to <br /> refer to the newspaper supplement which will be available <br /> at the voting booths and will be distributed. The tentative <br /> publication date we already have, September 16. We are <br /> shooting for the deadline on the newspaper supplement that <br /> we showed you last week. Arrangements are now being made <br /> with the Hawaii Tribune-Herald for that and the distribution <br /> also to West Hawaii Today. <br /> The explanation , as I say, we hope will not make <br /> it necessary to refer to the supplement but the supplement <br /> will be available at the voting places. As I stated, we will <br /> also have it in Ilocano and in Japanese. <br /> MR. TRULSON: Mr. Oda. I was looking at the <br /> question on Boards and Commissions and in the explanation <br /> what was the reasoning to point out realtors and developers <br /> from being barred? Are they the only ones? <br /> MR. ODA: I think , right now, they are the only <br /> ones. <br /> MR. TRULSON: Is that necessary to be put in? <br /> MR. ODA: I needed an example, and as far as I saw <br /> it was the only one so. . .I am not singling them out, it just <br /> so happened they are the only ones who are now barred. But <br /> if you folks don ' t feel it should belong there, no problem. <br /> MR. TRULSON: Don ' t you think just the first <br /> sentence alone would be explanation enough. <br /> MR. ODA: The what? <br /> MR. TRULSON: I think the first sentence alone. . . <br /> if approved, up . to. . .removes any such prior prohibition. I <br /> think would be ample explanation. I don ' t think we should <br /> point out any particular group. <br /> MRS. KOBAYASHI : But they are the ones that <br /> MR. TRULSON: Right, but they don ' t need to be in <br /> the explanation. I don ' t see any reason for that. <br /> -28- <br />
