              CB BANCSHARES, INC. INITIATES COST REDUCTION PLAN:
              --------------------------------------------------

                    Voluntary Separation Program Announced


HONOLULU, HI,  January 31, 1996  --  CB Bancshares, Inc.  (NASDAQ: CBBI) today 
announced a major initiative in the first quarter of 1996 to improve operating 
efficiency and decrease expenses.   The cost reduction plan offers a voluntary 
separation program to all employees.

James M. Morita,  Chairman and Chief Executive Officer  of CB Bancshares, Inc., 
said,  "Despite ongoing attempts  to improve our results  through 
consolidation and  the sale  of certain  operations,  the recent financial 
performance of the company has  been unacceptable.   The Board of Directors of 
CB Bancshares, Inc. has consequently approved a program to increase 
profitability."

Mr. Morita continued,  "The  company  must address an  increasingly 
competitive business environment  in Hawaii  and  the technological changes 
taking place in the delivery of financial services.   The needs of all our 
stockholders require a more efficient operating structure.   We believe  the 
program announced today will help us accomplish the goal."

Fourth quarter  and  year-end  results for CB Bancshares, Inc.  are released in 
February of each year.

CB Bancshares, Inc.  provides a  full range of banking products and services to 
small-to-medium  sized  businesses  and  retail customers through its principal 
subsidiaries,  City Bank  and  International  Savings & Loan Association.   The 
Company,  with 24 branches on the  islands of Oahu,  Maui  and  Hawaii,  is the 
third-largest  bank holding company  headquartered in Hawaii  with $1.5 billion 
in assets, $1.1 billion in loans and $1.0 billion in deposits.

Attachment II.

The following discussion  of projected  results from  the implementation of the 
Company's cost reduction plan  are forward-looking statements, and as such, the 
actual results could differ materially from those projected in such statements.

The CB Bancshares, Inc. voluntary separation program  announced to employees on 
January 31, 1996  offers all eligible  employees the opportunity of electing to 
terminate  their employment.   The company  has the  right to deny  or delay an 
employee's election.  The  voluntary separation program is the first phase of a 
cost  reduction  program.   If  the  response  to  Phase I doesn't  achieve the 
Company's goals by  March 31,  Phase II will be implemented.   The second phase 
will  incorporate  executive  pay  reductions  of up  to  10% and if necessary, 
involuntary staff reductions.

The  following  table  shows  management's  projections based  on the described 
assumptions.  

              Description                             Amount
              -----------                             ------

              Salaries (estimated)                  $1,000,000
              Estimated benefits                       250,000
                                                    ----------
                 Estimated reduced labor costs       1,250,000
                                                    ==========

              Severance (estimated)                    800,000
              Outplacement service                     225,000
                                                    ----------
                 Estimated restructuring charges    $1,025,000
                                                    ==========

While management  of the Company  believes the  projections described above are 
reasonable based on current information,  some assumptions may not materialize, 
and unanticipated events and circumstances may occur, causing actual results to 
vary from the projections described above. Factors which could cause the actual 
results  to  differ  from  those described  above  include [unanticipated legal 
action  taken  by  employees  (or third parties)  in response to the  Company's 
program,   material   and   unforeseen   changes  in   the  Company's  current  
operational  needs, material  changes in  the  Hawaiian  economy impacting the 
Company's   current  operational   needs,  or  other  unanticipated  external  
developments   materially impacting the  Company's  operational  and  financial 
performance.]

          CB Bancshares, Inc.

HONOLULU, HI  February 7, 1996....CB Bancshares, Inc.,  (NASDAQ: CBBI) reported 
net income  of $8.293 million  for the year ended December 31, 1995,  down from 
the  $11.071 million in the  prior year.   Earnings per share were $2.34 fully-
diluted,  compared  to $3.32  a  year ago.   In the fourth quarter,  net income 
decreased  to  $1.547  million,  equivalent  to  $0.44 per share fully-diluted, 
compared  to  $0.76  per share  in  the comparable quarter of 1994.   The lower 
earnings reflect the impact of Hawaii's continuing weak economy and the accrual 
of  certain non-recurring charges related to consolidations,  certain loan loss 
provisions and compensation costs.

In 1995,  net interest income was $55.4 million  compared with $54.9 million in 
1994.   Return on average assets  for the year  and fourth quarter of 1995 were 
0.56% and 0.41%, respectively,  compared with 0.95% and 0.76% in the prior year 
periods.  Return on average equity for the 12 months and fourth quarter of 1995 
were  7.29%  and  5.34%,  respectively,  against  10.92% and  9.81% in the 1994 
periods.   Allowance for loan losses  was  $14.6  million at December 31, 1995, 
compared to  $14.3 million last year.   The Company's capital levels exceed all 
regulatory  requirements,  with  a  equity to asset ratio of 7.74% at year end, 
which compares to 7.72% last year.

Hawaii's economy  has struggled for the  last several years.   The recession in 
Japan,  and  the structural changes in  Hawaii's economy,  contributed  to  the 
cyclical downturn in Hawaii's economy.   However,  fourth quarter economic data 
for  1995 show promise for an economic recovery  and the prospects for the near 
term are improving.  

Last week,  CB Bancshares  announced a  major initiative  to  improve operating 
efficiency  and  decrease expenses in the first quarter of 1996  by  offering a 
voluntary separation program to all its employees.

CB Bancshares provides a full range of banking products and services for small-
to-medium  size   businesses   and   retail  customers  through  its  principal 
subsidiaries,  City Bank   and  International Savings & Loan Association.   The
