Tucker, 41, was arrested threeyears ago and charged with sell­ing an ounce of cocaine to anundercover police officer.

At the time, she faced a manda­tory 20 year prison sentence, butGov. John Waihee this year signeda new law that allows judges toinstead give 10 years' probationto certain first-time drug pushers.

Mitchell however insisted inhis motion, which will be heardon August 17 at 9:00 a.m., th~the malapportionrrl'ent of the up­per house was a political dealwhich he described as unfair andunconstitutional.

"All future generations of thecommonwealth should not beburdened with this injustice," hesaid. "To eliminatethis ...discrimination would notdestabilize the commonwealth.To continue it almost certainlywill," he warned.

If the Superior Court wouldreconsider its decision and rulein favor of Sablan on the "oneperson, one vote" principle; spe­cial elections for the Senatewould have to be held to "cor­rect" the malapportionment.

tute the largest portion of medicalreferral costs.

In fiscal year 1993 alone,SHARP referral patients incurredalmost $3.75 million in profes­sional fees.

Other major cost componentsincluded patient and escort trans­portation costs, hotel accommo­dations, and subsistence allow­ances.

In fiscal year 1993, the CNMIgovernment spent approximately

. $700,000 for transportation, ho­tels, and subsistence allowanceson SHARP referrals alone, ac­cording to the report.

Last January 28, DPHS Direc­tor Isamu J. Abraham terminatedits agreement with SHARPeffec­tiveJuly 1,1994.

The SHARP agreement, whichwas essentially a cost reimburse­mentcontract withoutafixed priceceiling, accumulated more than$8.3 million in medical referralcosts as of January 1994.

The huge cost involved wasapparently one ofthe reasons whyAbraham asked for the termina­tion of the agreement.

Another reason cited, sourcesaid, was that the DPH did nothave an assurance that the totalcost was properly incurred be­cause DPH did not conduct utili­zation review procedures.

Utilization review is now a stan­dard control procedure on healthcare providers. Under this proce­dure, DPH could have hired ahealth professional to reviewmedical referral billings to ensurethat only those medical servicesrequested to be performed on re­ferral patients are rendered by thehealth care provider.

At present, Abraham said theDPH is evaluating several pro­posals from other health care pro­viders to take the place ofSHARP.No particular health care providerhowever, has been chosen. Nego­tiations are still under wa

tion of the legislative branches ofthe United States and the CNMIare not analogous. The Covenantdid not involve the formation of aunion among distinct politicalentities and that Rota and Tinianwere not distinct political enti­ties, he said.

He added that the two islandshad no sovereignty to concede.Even if they had, the CNMI gov­ernment is not, itself, a federalsystem with a central govern­ment and subordinate politicalunits like states in a federal sys­tem, he said.

Judge Castro has ruled thatchanging the Senate by judicialorder would be "impractical andanomalous" based on the deter­mination made on the issue of"one person, one vote."

government to shoulder all costsincurred by patients who are re­ferred to off-island treatment fa­cilities.

Under the CHC's existing setup, referral patients are not re­quired to pay anything. All medi­cal bills are paid by the govern­ment except for the portion cov­ered by private insurance or bythe Medicare or Medicaid pro­gram.

Transportation and hotel costsare also shouldered by the gov­ernment. A patient is also entitledto beaccompanied by an escort, ifhis or her medical condition war­rants personal care and assistance.

Referral patients and their es­corts are entitled to a daily subsis­tence allowance of $20 each. Onthe other hand, local patientstreated at the CHC have to pay fortheir own medical costs.

Source said according to thereport's analysis, the situationonly encourages patients to insiston getting referred to avoid pay­ment of medical costs.

he said has been relied upon bythe U.S. Supreme Court in a 1963case.

"Given these authorities, therecan be no doubt that the right toequal voting power is a funda­mental right, in the internationalsense," his motion said.. The court's application of theInsular Cases doctrine was incor­rect, according to Sablan. Heclaimed the "implicit teaching"used by the court did not exist.

The Reynolds court did not sayor hold that the federal govern­ment was fundamentally demo­cratic, he said. Rather the prevail­ing opinion has been that a statelegislature modelled on the fed­eral congress was "categoricallydiscriminatory."

By the end of fiscalyear 1993,costs related to SHARP referralstotaled $6.9 million or almost 30percent of the total medical refer­ral costs.

It was also noted that in thisfiscal year, SHARP referral costwas 51 percent of total medicalreferral cost.

"Contrary to sound fiscal man­agement practice, the DPH didnot have any program evaluationorcost study todetermine whetherthe SHARP medical referral con­tract had delivered the needed

.medical service in a prudent andcdst effective manner," sourcesaid quoting the audit report.

Based on the average medicalreferral costs for the past threefiscal years, the source stressedthat the government will againincur a huge deficit in its medicalreferral budget for the current fisccal year.

With an annual average ofabout$7.6 million, the report indicatesthat medical referral costs willexceed the proposed medical re­ferral budget of $2.9 million forfiscal year 1994 by about $4.7million.

The factor that is attributed tothe condition is the policy of the

both islands demanded that thereshould be anequal representationin Senate, to which Saipan agreedto form a commonwealth.

The court added that the USSenate was not formed based onthe "one person, one vote" rule,rather it was organized based onasystem that provides equal repre­sentation to States with widelydifferent populations. Otherwise,he said, there would have been noUnion of 50 states if leaders ofeach state insisted on "one per­son, one vote" principle. He alsofound such right not to be "funda­mental in international sense."

Atty. Theodore R. Mitchell,counsel for Sablan, argued in hismotion for reconsideration thatsuch a phrase was coined "to saythat it included...personal rightswhich are the basis of all freegovernment."

He said the court must look forthe standards of human rightswhich are recognized as basic andfundamental, in the internationalsense. Mitchell was referring tothe personal rights embodied inthe UN Declaration of HumanRights which states among othersthat "All are equal before the lawand are entitled without discrimi­nation to equal protection of thelaw .....

Sablan earlier claimed that thecomposition of the common­wealth Senate is unconstitutionalbecause it is "malapportioned."He said since about 90% of thepeople of the CNMI are residentsof'Saipan, then the most populousisland must be represented byeight senators while the islands ofTinian and Rota must be repre­sented by one.

The existing equal representa­tion in Senate does not only vio­late the principle of "one person,one vote" but also violate his rightto equal protection of the laws asguaranteed by the FourteenthAmendment of the US Constitu­tion, he claimed

Castro ruled that based on theimplicit teaching of the Reynoldscourt, "the bicameral systemwhere one house givesequal rep­resentation to politicalsubdivi­sions with disparate populationlevels can be democratic wherethe apportionment is necessary toform a union among distinct po­litical entities which otherwisewould not be willing to concedesovereignty to a central govern­ment."

In making the judgment, thecourt cited the history of the po­IItical union ofthe CNM I with theUnited States. Rota and Tinianhad refused to join then proposedcommonwealth, fearing thatSaipan might dominate them. So

WARSAW, Poland (AP) • Withthedauntless spirit ofadolescence,Zofia Kuratowska set out at age13 for what she thought would bea "great adventure" - the WarsawUprising of 1944.

It was a bold but doomed enter­prise, done in by a Soviet decisionnot to back the resistance fightersup. When it ended two monthslater, 200,000 Poles were dead ­including Kuratowska' s boy­friend - and the city was in ruins.

She wept bitterly when the up­rising ended. Soon after, she andher mother were huddled in afreight car as the Nazis shipped700,000 people out of the city.

Born today, you are an ex­tremely creative, visionary, andprogressive individual, and muchthat you do is likely to be experi­mental at the very least! Indeed,you are often to be accused ofstretching the limits - not of yourown abilities, but of your sanity aswell; you're not the kind to stick tothe old tried-and-true methods ofdoing things. The more risk anddanger involved, the better; youthrive on those situations whichothers would label "crisis." Profes­sionally, you are likely to enjoy agood deal of notoriety and, withruck, longevity as well.

Your eersonaJ life may prove abit volatile and, at times, unsuc­cessful - if you consider "suc­cess" to include those things most"ordinary" people want out of life.You, on the other hand, may bequite content with your on-again­off-again brand of relating tofriends and loved ones.
