Aloha,
Like to get the Star-Advertiser for six months free? Know anyone who would? A few days back, I sent you information about our fundraiser. Lots of people are signing up to get the Star-Advertiser four days a week for six months for $10. But some people who already get the newspaper are sending donations instead. We’ve received more than a hundred dollars in donations.
The Star-Advertiser is really looking for more readers, however. And they are paying us $20 for every new subscriber we turn in. So everyone wins if we use the donated money to give the paper free to new subscribers.
This is why I like this idea. The other day, Doris and I drove out to the new Nanakuli Library. It’s gorgeous. But hardly anyone was there. I found copies of my own books, Man, Gods, and Nature, and A Call for Hawaiian Sovereignty. They were printed more than twenty-five years ago, but they look brand new. No one has ever checked them out. All of the books in the library look new.
During the time of the monarchy, there were 37 printing presses in Hawaii. Everybody loved to read. Hawaii had the highest literacy rate in the world.
We need to get more Hawaiians reading and enjoying reading again. Maybe if families had a free newspaper four days a week for six months, they might read the Sports or Entertainment section, or clip coupons, and really enjoy reading. Maybe it would be good to have it around for your own family if you don’t already take the paper.
So this note is to ask for names of people who would like to receive the paper free. Before filling out and sending the attached application, please email me to make sure we still have donated money available to cover it. I will send out word when we run out of money. (We are still taking donations.) Our fundraiser with the Star-Advertiser ends on October 28. Everything needs to be in by then. So please act now.

Why is the Star-Advertiser making this offer?
Many people are now getting all of their news from their phones or computers. There are no ads on the staradvertiser.com site. The Star-Advertiser needs to show advertisers that people are seeing their ads. So it has great need to have large numbers receiving the newsprint form which carries the ads.
The Kapolei Chorale is a community chorus, directed by Doris Dudley. It is a non-profit 501 (c)(3) organization. The Chorale sponsors the 9th Annual Leeward Music Festival which will again be held at the Kroc Center in East Kapolei on Saturday evening, April 13, 2019. Proceeds from the fundraiser will support the Leeward Music Festival. If you already get the paper, but would like to donate $10 toward the Festival, please do.
If you have any questions, please call me at 672-8888.

CIVIL BEAT POLLSCivil Beat Poll: Voters Like The Idea Of A ConCon, They’re Just Not Going To Vote For It
It looks like most Hawaii voters are not keen on voting to have a constitutional convention, according to Civil Beat’s latest poll.
Just 26 percent of likely voters surveyed statewide said they would vote “yes” on the ConCon, while 46 percent said they would vote “no.” Another 20 percent said they’re unsure of how to vote, while 8 percent said they won’t vote on the question. Remember, blank votes count as “no” votes.
Some of the “no” voters said they don’t want the state to spend money on a ConCon. Another respondent said they didn’t have specific reasons to oppose it, but don’t think it’s the right time.
In addition to asking whether they would vote “yes” or “no,” the poll also asked voters how they feel generally about a constitutional convention. In that case, there was more support for the idea.

  Civil Beat Poll: Voters Want Term Limits For State Legislators
A new Civil Beat poll surveyed voters on 5 issues that could come up should a constitutional convention be called — mail-in voting, a lottery, recreational marijuana, term limits and initiatives, referendums and recalls.
The poll suggests that voters support an initiative process, term limits, all-mail voting and a lottery. But legalizing marijuana? Not quite.

OFFICE OF HAWAIIAN AFFAIRSHow OHA Trustees Spent Their Allowances
Here’s what OHA trustees spent their individual allowances on from July 2016 to December 2017, according to an analysis of expense reports. The spending included tickets to charitable galas, sponsorships for athletes and pageant contestants, donations to specific families and more.
Keep in mind that an audit of the Office of Hawaiian Affairs released earlier this year showed “questionable use” of funds by trustees between fall 2013 and spring 2016.
The audit criticized the loose spending guidelines and highlighted how trustees don’t have an official process for verifying that recipients of the funds are actually Hawaiian.
