Hilo Vision and Island Notes From Major Wolter

Major E H F Wolter, back from Hawaii, urges Hilo breakwater and harbor dredging to boost growth, plus a Front Street boulevard, a wall at the waterline, a paid fire department, and a better courthouse and post office. He also critiques homestead abandonments in Olan and proposes raspberry farming for local jams. The report covers Ple iades detention note to Russia, a near drowning near Volcano road, and Hawaii Treasury cash delays with warrants held until November.
