But Yamasaki, noting growing Advertiser photo by Gregory Yamamoto and stories on Page B-1. counting on the liquor tax dollars is a legal means of "balancing" the budget. "That's not the real world," said Henderson. Henderson said Ariyoshi is saying the Legislature can pass a budget based on the hope that the "Supreme Court will do what he wants."
