December 7, 1962 Mr, Earl C. Conway Scandia Incorporated December 7, 1962 Mr, Earl C. Conway Scandia Incorporated P.O. Box 1116 Agana-Guam Dear Earl : It was indeed a worthwhile experience to go to Guam to study the situation first­ hand, I am indeed grateful for the reception we received. Please be sure to express my sincere appreciation to all who made our visit educational and enduring In impact. I have already called the White House to notify them of my position with regard to the governorship. I have not received any new word to date. Please be assured that I w ill oontinue to monitor the matter in the best interest of the people in Guam. Mahalo and warmest aloha. Sincerely, DANIEL K. INOUYE, M.C DKI:c k SCANDIA INCORPORATED P. O. Box 1116 C a b le : S ca n d ia -G u a m A g a n a-Gijam November 30, 1962 Senator-Elect Daniel K. Inouye Honolulu, Hawaii Dear Dan: Myself and many others here were very pleased that you and Sparky Matsunaga and Tom Gill thought that we were of sufficient impor­ tance to take time out from your busy schedule and many important activities to obtain an on-the-spot picture of Guam’s disaster. We are indeed grateful for this and wish to extend our sincere thanks. Dan, a call was received by Speaker Won Pat yesterday from a friend in Washington, The rumor is very heavy that Manuel Guerrero will receive the appointment for Governor. This is, I feel, due to the return to Washington of several officials sent out here to report and establish aid for the disaster. Most of their dealings were with Manuel Guerrero and they doubtless reported favorably on his conduct with them. I feel strongly, along with many others, that the appointment of Speaker Won Pat as Governor of Guam would be a great step forward toward the future development and re-building of Guam. Mr. Won Pat has served in the Legislature since 1936 and in addition to being well qualified in Governmental affairs, he has earned the gratitude of his constituents with his untiring efforts in Washington, pro­ moting legislation for the betterment of this Territory, It is my understanding that Secretary Udall or Assistant Secretary John Carver will be coming to Guam within the next ten days. Possibly, you will meet them in Honolulu on their way through. I am asking your further help in promoting Mr. Won Pat’s cause, and requesting the elistment of aid from Congressmen Elect Spark Matsunaga and Thomas Gill, - 1- Distributing Jobbers to the Western Pacific SCANDIA INCORPORATED P .

    Essential Logic Ronald C. Pine Chapter 4: INFORMAL FALLACIES I All effective propaganda must be confined to a few bare necessities and then must be expressed in a few stereotyped formulas. Adolf Hitler Until the habit of thinking is well formed, facing the situation to discover the facts requires an effort. For the mind tends to dislike what is unpleasant and so to sheer off from an adequate notice of that which is especially annoying. John Dewey, How We Think Introduction In everyday speech you may have heard someone refer to a commonly accepted belief as a fallacy. What is usually meant is that the belief is false, although widely accepted. In logic, a fallacy refers to logically weak argument appeal (not a belief or statement) that is widely used and successful. Here is our definition: A logical fallacy is an argument that is usually psychologically persuasive but logically weak. By this definition we mean that fallacious arguments work in getting many people to accept conclusions, that they make bad arguments appear good even though a little commonsense reflection will reveal that people ought not to accept the conclusions of these arguments as strongly supported. Although logicians distinguish between formal and informal fallacies, our focus in this chapter and the next one will be on traditional informal fallacies.1 For our purposes, we can think of these fallacies as "informal" because they are most often found in the everyday exchanges of ideas, such as newspaper editorials, letters to the editor, political speeches, advertisements, conversational disagreements between people in social networking sites and Internet discussion boards, and so on.

  • Ho'omalimali and the Succession Model of Political Inheritance In
    Ho'omalimali and the Succession Model of Political Inheritance in Hawai'i: A Study of the Electoral Dominance of Americans of Japanese Ancestry in State and Congressional Politics Skyler Allyn Korgel ANS 678H Departmental Honors in Asian Studies The University of Texas at Austin May 2018 Dr. Chiu-Mi Lai Department of Asian Studies Thesis Supervisor Dr. Patricia Maclachlan Department of Government Second Reader Abstract “Ho’omalimali” and the Succession Model of Political Inheritance in Hawai'i: A Study of the Electoral Dominance of Americans of Japanese Ancestry in State and Congressional Politics Author: Skyler Korgel Thesis Supervisor: Dr. Chiu-Mi Lai Second Reader: Dr. Patricia Maclachlan This thesis seeks to discover the underlying causes and factors for the unique political situation in Hawai'i where a minority demographic has been historically dominant. In researching historical and political contexts, as well as institutional and electoral factors, analysis of all these findings has shown a constructed “succession model” behind the dominance of Americans of Japanese Ancestry (AJA) through the Democratic Party. The thesis also examines the implications of the disrupted and further divisive political climate of the Hawai'i Democratic Party since the death of universally respected and revered Senator Daniel Inouye (1924-2012). Senator Inouye’s death brought to an end a political career that spanned nearly six decades, and commenced a new era for Hawai'i political leadership. Quite possibly, this new era has also fractured the succession model. In a 75% minority state, throughout the past 65 years, Americans of Japanese ancestry have managed to gain a stranglehold over the Hawai'i Democratic Party, and therefore the Hawai’i state government itself.

Gill (1922- ) was a member of Congress from Hawaii to the U.S. House of Representatives (1963-1964). His political career before and after Congress included serving in the Hawaii Territorial Legislature (1958-1959), the Hawaii State Legislature (1959-1962), the Hawaii Office of Economic Opportunity (1965-1966) and the office of Lt. Governor of Hawaii (1966-1970). He was deeply involved in local and national Democratic Party politics whether in or out of office. Declining an officer rank, Gill served in World War II as an enlisted soldier in the 24th Infantry Division in New Guinea and the Philippines and was awarded the Bronze Star and Purple Heart. His private law practice was a platform for lifelong advocacy of social, political, economic and environmental justice, the effects of which are still being felt in Hawaii. He married Lois Hanawalt in 1947 and has six children—Thomas (“Tony”), Andrea, Eric, Ivan, Timothy, and Gary. The bulk of the collection is from Gill’s two years in Congress and in the Lt. Governor’s office.

  • 1856—1995. by George Chaplin. Honolulu: University of Hawai'i Press, 1998
    Book Reviews Presstime in Paradise: The Life and Times of the Honolulu Advertiser, 1856—1995. By George Chaplin. Honolulu: University of Hawai'i Press, 1998. Illustrated. Appendix. Notes. Bibliography. Index. 395 pp. $42.00 cloth; $29.95 paper. Presstime in Paradise is an apt title for George Chaplin's history of the oldest newspaper still in publication in the Islands. As editor-in-chief of The Hono- lulu Advertiser from 1958 to 1986, Chaplin has been intimately acquainted with the demands of a daily morning press, and Paradise indicates his affec- tion for the Island community the paper has served since its birth on July 2, 1856, as the Pacific Commercial Advertiser. Thorough research and a sharp journalist's eye buttress the story. The book is divided into five sections. Section I, from 1856 to 1880, introduces founding editor Henry Martyn Whitney, the Hawai'i-born son of American Protestant missionaries who also began the Hawaiian-language paper Nupepa Kuokoa in 1861 (to run to 1927). Whitney learned his trade on American newspapers in New York. A strong believer in the American ideal of a free press, Whitney, back in the Islands, ran afoul of the rising haole plantation/ business oligarchy by editorializing against the contract labor system, suffered a boycott by them, and was forced out by Black and Auld. He continued his association with the paper until his death in 1904 but not as publisher. Section II describes the turbulent period from 1880 to 1898, when con- trol of The Advertiser shifted to Walter Murray Gibson, prime minister to King Kalakaua.
