We pushed the eviction  date back to March  1st  after thousands  of workers  and other people made phone  calls  to  the  Governor and Mayor, held signs  along highways, and donated  food, money and  equipment  to  defend  the  valleys and to build unity among the people of Hawaii for the  struggle there.\\n\\nEven  though we won  a victory, the war goes  on.   The  latest  attack is Pao's  proposal  to  the  State Land Use  Commission  (SLUC) to  rezone land in Waikane so he  can develop there.   We have to fight  this attack  like we've  fought  the  others.   Again we have  to unite  in our greatest numbers and go  down  to  the SLUG hearing to beat back this blow.\\n\\nIn the meantime, Pao  is  doing all he  can to  destroy our unity which has  beat him back  so far.   He's  trying to  divide us working people by telling construction workers  that  there'll  be  plenty of  jobs  if they support his  rezoning plan.\\n\\nBut why are  40,000 workers  in Hawaii already  laid off?   And with 12,000  empty new units  on Oahu, why  can't  most  of us  afford to  buy even  the  cheapest  homes?   Working people  don't  get  paid  enough  to buy the very things we make.   So when things go unsold, like  all those homes, the bosses  dump us  in  the  streets.\\n\\nAll  of us need good-paying  jobs  and  decent  homes.   It's not  the  resistance  of the Waiahole-Waikane  residents  that's  causing 40$  of the construction workers to be unemployed, like Pao  trys to make it look.   Even if the development  goes through and he hires construction workers, the homes he  plans  for the valleys  aren't  the kind most of us can afford.  He's talking about prices between $40,000 and $250,000.   And he's going to pay the workers the  lowest wages he can get  away with,   like through the piece work system, and he'll lay them off the  second the job  is  done.\\n\\nWe have  to  fight  Pao's  attempts  to  divide us  and  continue  to  rely on  the unity and the  strength  of the  thousands  of people who  support the  struggle  if we're  going to smash  this  latest  attack.   United, we had the power to  delay the  evictions.   Now we must  direct  that power at  stopping the  rezoning of Waikane  and the threat of people getting evicted from  the  valleys.\\n_________________________________________________________________\\nSOME QUESTIONS & AC\\n\\nQ: WHAT ABOUT LANDOWNER'S \"RIGHTS\"?\\nA: We've worked the land for generations, put all the value and improvements d has done nothing to improve this land. The only thing she has done is collect bulldozer -- all he does is collect profit. Mark's \"right\" to collect rent and I from our labor is protected by \"the law.\" Our \"right\" to a home and a job is c ability to fight back.\\n\\nQ: WHAT IS THE LAND USE COMMISSION?\\nA: created in 1961, it controls all land zoning in Hawaii for agriculture, urban, rural & conservation. Its 9 members are appointed by the governor. Faced with massive public opposition to rezoning petitions by big landowners & developers in 1974, it got a new law passed that favors developers and binds the people with restrictions. Its rezonings favor big landowners.\\n\\nQ: DOES \"DEVELOPMENT\" MEAN JOBS?\\nA: Pao tried to blame unemployment among construction workers on the fight against his plans for Waiahole-Waikane. But the real cause of layoffs is the profit drive of developers who have flooded the market with 12,000 expensive units they can't sell. Why? Because the wages they pay us aren't enough to allow us to buy the houses we build!\\n_________________________________________________________________\\nEighty-seven Waiahole-Waikane families-farmers, workers, tenants, children and old folks -- over 400 in all. We farm, fish and work outside. Some are second and third generation valley residents. We grow a lot of everybody's food.\\n\\nElizabeth Marks, Joe Pao and others. Marks got the land from her father. He grabbed 6,000 acres from farmers and workers years ago. Marks & Pao never lifted a finger in Waiahole-Waikane. Behind them are profit-hungry bankers, sales agents. For fast bucks they do anything except honest work.\\n\\nWHY WE'LL WIN\\n\\nIn the past, rich landlords, bankers and developers evicted thousands from Waikiki, Ala Moana, Kakaako, Waialae, Kalama, Punaluu, and elsewhere. Through bitter experience we learned that the courts and cops are controlled by and for the rich, not us working people. That is why we farmers and workers must now rely not on the rich man's system, but on ourselves and on the people for support. We will win because:\\n\\n * WE ARE MANY, THEY ARE FEW!\\n * IT'S OUR BASIC NEEDS AGAINST PROFITS FOR THE RICH!\\n * MOST OF HAWAII'S PEOPLE SUPPORT OUR FIGHT!\\n\\nQ: WHAT DOES PAO PLAN IN WAIAHOLE?\\nA: He plans 7,000 \"low,\" \"middle\" and \"rich houses. The \"low\" begin at $45,000, the \"middle\" at $100,000, the rich at $250,000, housing we cannot afford. Total project cost including financing: OVER $2.3 BILLION!\\n\\nQ: WHY PRESERVE AGRICULTURAL LAND?\\nA: Most (96%) of Hawaii's land is owned by 75 big landowners who are linked at the top with developers and bankers.  This class makes higher profits from housing for the rich than from agriculture. Waiahole-Waikane agricultural products such as sweet potatoes, bananas and papayas, are consumed here, not exported. Pao's development will destroy these prime ag lands in Waikane.  We farmers and supporters will not sit by and watch Pao bulldoze our livelihood into the ground."}],"sequences":[{"@id":"https://digital.library.manoa.hawaii.edu/iiif/31411/sequence/normal","@type":"sc:Sequence","label":"Current Page Order","viewingDirection":"left-to-right","viewingHint":"paged","canvases":[{"@id":"https://digital.library.manoa.hawaii.edu/iiif/31411/canvas/p1","@type":"sc:Canvas","label":"196-1655medium.jpg","thumbnail":{"@id":"https://digital.library.manoa.hawaii.edu/iiif-img/35952/full/137%2C200/0/default.jpg","service":{"@context":"http://iiif.io/api/image/2/context.json","@id":"https://digital.library.manoa.hawaii.edu/iiif-img/35952","profile":"http://iiif.io/api/image/2/level2.json"}},"width":1989,"height":2906,"images":[{"@id":"https://digital.library.manoa.hawaii.edu/iiif/31411/annotation/p0001-image","@type":"oa:Annotation","motivation":"sc:painting","resource":{"@id":"https://digital.library.manoa.hawaii.edu/iiif-img/35952/full/548%2C800/0/default.jpg","@type":"dctypes:Image","format":"image/jpeg","width":1989,"height":2906,"service":{"@context":"http://iiif.io/api/image/2/context.json","@id":"https://digital.library.manoa.hawaii.edu/iiif-img/35952","profile":"http://iiif.io/api/image/2/level2.json"}},"on":"https://digital.library.manoa.hawaii.edu/iiif/31411/canvas/p1"}]},{"@id":"https://digital.library.manoa.hawaii.edu/iiif/31411/canvas/p2","@type":"sc:Canvas","label":"196-1658medium.jpg","thumbnail":{"@id":"https://digital.library.manoa.hawaii.edu/iiif-img/35953/full/139%2C200/0/default.jpg","service":{"@context":"http://iiif.io/api/image/2/context.json","@id":"https://digital.library.manoa.hawaii.edu/iiif-img/35953","profile":"http://iiif.io/api/image/2/level2.json"}},"width":2024,"height":2906,"images":[{"@id":"https://digital.library.manoa.hawaii.edu/iiif/31411/annotation/p0002-image","@type":"oa:Annotation","motivation":"sc:painting","resource":{"@id":"https://digital.library.manoa.hawaii.edu/iiif-img/35953/full/557%2C800/0/default.jpg","@type":"dctypes:Image","format":"image/jpeg","width":2024,"height":2906,"service":{"@context":"http://iiif.io/api/image/2/context.json","@id":"https://digital.library.manoa.hawaii.edu/iiif-img/35953","profile":"http://iiif.io/api/image/2/level2.json"}},"on":"https://digital.library.manoa.hawaii.edu/iiif/31411/canvas/p2"}]},{"@id":"https://digital.library.manoa.hawaii.edu/iiif/31411/canvas/p3","@type":"sc:Canvas","label":"196-1661medium.jpg","thumbnail":{"@id":"https://digital.library.manoa.hawaii.edu/iiif-img/35954/full/135%2C200/0/default.jpg","service":{"@context":"http://iiif.io/api/image/2/context.json","@id":"https://digital.library.manoa.hawaii.edu/iiif-img/35954","profile":"http://iiif.io/api/image/2/level2.json"}},"width":1975,"height":2927,"images":[{"@id":"https://digital.library.manoa.hawaii.edu/iiif/31411/annotation/p0003-image","@type":"oa:Annotation","motivation":"sc:painting","resource":{"@id":"https://digital.library.manoa.hawaii.edu/iiif-img/35954/full/540%2C800/0/default.jpg","@type":"dctypes:Image","format":"image/jpeg","width":1975,"height":2927,"service":{"@context":"http://iiif.io/api/image/2/context.json","@id":"https://digital.library.manoa.hawaii.edu/iiif-img/35954","profile":"http://iiif.io/api/image/2/level2.json"}},"on":"https://digital.library.manoa.hawaii.edu/iiif/31411/canvas/p3"}]},{"@id":"https://digital.library.manoa.hawaii.edu/iiif/31411/canvas/p4","@type":"sc:Canvas","label":"196-1664medium.jpg","thumbnail":{"@id":"https://digital.library.manoa.hawaii.edu/iiif-img/35955/full/141%2C200/0/default.jpg","service":{"@context":"http://iiif.io/api/image/2/context.json","@id":"https://digital.library.manoa.hawaii.edu/iiif-img/35955","profile":"http://iiif.io/api/image/2/level2.json"}},"width":2031,"height":2878,"images":[{"@id":"https://digital.library.manoa.hawaii.edu/iiif/31411/annotation/p0004-image","@type":"oa:Annotation","motivation":"sc:painting","resource":{"@id":"https://digital.library.manoa.hawaii.edu/iiif-img/35955/full/565%2C800/0/default.jpg","@type":"dctypes:Image","format":"image/jpeg","width":2031,"height":2878,"service":{"@context":"http://iiif.io/api/image/2/context.json","@id":"https://digital.library.manoa.hawaii.edu/iiif-img/35955","profile":"http://iiif.io/api/image/2/level2.json"}},"on":"https://digital.library.manoa.hawaii.edu/iiif/31411/canvas/p4"}]}]}]}
