## Sec. 202.1 Commission; Members, Officers, Compensation ###
(a)There is hereby established a commission to be known as the “Hawaiian Homes Commission” to be composed of seven members, four of whom, including the chairman, shall be residents of the city and county of Honolulu; of the remaining members, one shall be a resident of the county of Hawaii, one a resident of the county of Maui, and one a resident of the county of Kauai. The members shall be appointed by the Governor and may be removed in the manner provided by section 80 of the Hawaiian Organic Act, as amended. All of the members shall have been residents of the Territory of Hawaii at least three years prior to their appointment and at least four of the members shall be descendants of not less than one-fourth part of the blood of the races inhibiting the Hawaiian Islands prior to 1778. 1The first undesignated section for the Act of July 26, 1935 (Chap. 420; 49 Stat. 504) amended section 202 in its entirety. The amendment probably should have included the section designation shown here to reflect the probable intent of Congress. ###
(b)Any vacancy in the office of an appointed member shall be filled in the same manner and under the limitations of this Act. ###
(c)One of the members shall be designated by the Governor as chairman. An executive officer and such clerical assistants as may be necessary shall be appointed by the Commission to serve at its pleasure. The executive officer shall reside habitually at the major Hawaiian Homes Settlement. He shall receive an annual salary in such amount as shall be set by the Commission, from time to time, not to exceed $6,000: *Provided,* That if the compensation for like positions in the Territorial service is fixed by classification thereof, pursuant to any schedule established by legislative or executive authority, such compensation may equal but shall not exceed the amount certified for the position by the Board, Commission, officer, or other agency determining such classifications for the Territorial service, in accordance with established Territorial procedure. Clerical assistants shall be paid in accordance with Territorial practice for such services. The members of the Commission shall serve without pay, but shall receive actual expenses incurred by them in the discharge of their duties as such members. The members of the Commission shall hold office for terms of five years except that any member appointed to fill a vacancy shall be appointed only for the unexpired term of the member whom he succeeds. A member may also be removed by the Governor for cause after due notice and public hearing.
