DANIEL K. INOUYE; BRIBERY - LEGISLATIVE BRANCH The caller stated he is reporting this information INouye. He stated he is reporting this information because for years the rumor in the industry is that Senator Inouye is on the take. The caller further indicated that he did not believe that the Federal Government (FBl) would do anything about this complaint. A review of Honolulu General, Confidential, and ELsuR b6 indices revealed no pertinent information relating to captioned b7C matter for United States Senator, DANIEL K. INouye; MNc; of HAWAII PACIFIC MARITIME INC.; and doing business as TRANS MARINE NAVIGATION. Honolulu has been unable to identify the anonymous caller who made the allegations against Senator Inouye and MNC and is not aware of an investigation that would likely result in identifying the anonymous complainant. MNc has been serving Hawaii since l882. On January 20, 1964, the United States Department of Justice filed a civil. anti-trust action charging~that control of MATsoN by ALExANDER & BALDWIN, CASTLE & COOKE, C. BREWER & CO., and AMERICAN FACTORS constituted illegal restraint of trade. In July, l964, ALExANDER & BALDwin purchased the shares of the other three defendants in the anti-trust suit. In the next five years ALEXANDER & BALDWIN purchased the remaining outstanding stock, making MArson a wholly owned subsidiary in 1969. An article in the HONOLULU ADVERTISER dated Thursday, October 5, l989, reported that APL has received preliminary approval to offer mainland-Hawaii cargo service but with conditions, notably that the authority be for a five-year period. MNc, which has vigorously opposed ApL's bid, said it will file exceptions to the decision which was issued Monday, October 2, l989, by Administrative Law Judge DANIEL HEAD of~the United States Department of Transportation. The decision now goes to the United States Maritime Administrator for a final ruling. Mnc said that in allowing for the.several steps available for review and appeal, a final resolution is not expected until the second half of 199o and after that a review in the Federal Courts would be possible. 2
