Land Commissioner Shows Patience With Outside Capital
Land Commissioner Pratt testifies that the department aids outside investors seeking Hawaiian lands and that the policy aims to attract foreign capital. He cites Mr Vent’s early March arrival, a $235.21 remittance, and investigations into leases held by Edw Bingham and others. Vent toured Hawaii lands with agents, with plans for cancellation or reassessment if conditions were not met, a process aided by telegraph coordination to speed a potential new settlement.
