114 EXHIBIT IV OFFICE or THE MAYOR — eounly •! kawill, kll*. kiwall «(1tt September 17, 1971 •HUNICMI KIMWHA Mr. Lawrence Dunn, Deputy Director Office of Emergency Preparedness Federal Building 450 Golden Gate Avenue, Room 2029 San Francisco, California 71-9-66 This letter will confirm the telephone call made this morning to you by M. O. Isherwood, Sr., Hawaii County Civil Defense Administrator, with reference to the referral to the Office of Emergency Preparedness by the President's Cost of Living Council of a request from Governor John Burns of Hawaii for an exemption from the price freeze as it applies to food, grocery products and animal feed. It was explained that Hawaii's prices have always been based on cost of the goods plus the cost of transportation with a markup to cover the local operational cost. Prior to the shipping strike, a large majority of the goods used in Hawaii were shipped from 'rfest Coast ports with a small percentage being shipped through Gulf and East Coast centers. With the shipping strike in effect on the West Coast, all goods coming by ocean freight have been shipped through Vancouver, Canada, or from the Gulf and East Coast ports resulting in transportation costs running approximately three times greater than transportation costs before the strike. Additionally, shipments by air have doubled and in some cases tripled weekly at much higher landed costs. Prices on fresh vegetables, on which the price freeze does not apply, are running two to three times higher than before the strike. Hawaii is the only state that has to rely on water or air transportation. We do not have the alternative of land transportation available to the other states, including Alaska. You questioned whether our request is the same as that of Senator Hiram Fong. Our reply was that we are not cognizant of the contents of Senator Fong's communication, that we are primarily concerned with the health and welfare of the people of the County of Hawaii and that We fully support the request made by Governor Durns for consideration of an exemption from the price freci^e of the extra transportation costs on food and feed products for the State of Hawaii.
115 Even though the shipping strike might be over on any given day, it would be 60 to 90 days before supplies would be received in a normal manner. Any action on your part that would expedite a reply from the Office of Emergency Preparedness to the President's Cost of Living Council relative to the referral to the OEP of Hawaii's request would be appreciated. / , . . .
