Proclamations Planned for Open Lands and New Land Agents
The territory prepares proclamations opening public lands for homesteads. Governor Walter F. Hrvan and Land Commissioner Campbell review the plan to ensure no homestead is overlooked. Seven new land agents will be appointed on Maui and Hawaii to assist applicants, bringing the total to twelve. Agents will receive instruction before starting duties, with briefings on land law and applications. A court case involving Heleniane Land Company and others seeks an account.
