WISE" declared MIR. Smith but we,
are bound to the principle, and the
voice from Washington has been that
the public lands of Hawaii must be
subdividcd"
Mr. Smith declared that the difficult
ties that had been encountered I'm
, homcsteading were inherent and could
only be overcome in course OF time.
ITO carry out the intent of this res
olution and leave only the undeveloped
lands for the homcstcaders would be
the greatest step backward since there
has been civilized government in these
Islands" said Mr.. Smith. Il am try
ing to speak temporarily, but to carry
out this plan would be nothing less
than monstrous. Congress would new
or consider IT, To set aside these rev.
enues from the public lands for school
purposes and the placing of the edu-
cational needs in this bill viii deceive
| no onc--lt will certainly not throw
dust In the eyes OF Congress"
! A False Banner.
/ Replying tn Mr.. smith, Senator Fair
child declared that the ''monstrosity APP
piled to both sides of the question"
We are sailing under false BAN
, nor of homestcading folly" he said,
"and II Is about time we admitted we
| are wrong. The value of the public
, lands is being dissipated without fur
! thcring the idea OF homcstcading and
| losing government asset by the very
/ failure Of the demonstrating policy to
/ work out as planned. II Is time that
we were dedicated to the idea Of the
. greatest good for the greatest number.
/ At the present time the land Is going
| into the hands of the few and Is be-
I ing lost to the Territory forever. AL
legged homcstcadcrs are simply waiting
q to grab the developed land and then
] sell out That IL not the pioneering
. spirit upon which the demonstrating
. policy IL based wherever found |
! claim the plan in this resolution will
/ make the country and preserve revc-
, nue. for the Territory"
senator chillingworth then asked w.
, o. Smith II he could point out one case
where demonstrating had been success
| rul and that II II was not possible for
the plantations to acquire all OF the
homcsteads by purchase within pc
riod of fifteen ycns, with corre-
spending loss to the Territory.
Mr. Smith practically conceded that
this was so. Chillingworth then as
serted that he was favorable to some
/ such plan rs contained in the Fair
child resolution, where the public land
and the revenue therefrom would he
conserved to the Territory.
Bishop Supports.
The remarks Of Faxon Bishop in
support Of the resolution of the ways
of lao -
constituted something of an indict-
mont upon the community for Its fall
ure to provide adequate schools and
hospitals for its people.
Il do not believe that there Is n
community In the world with one-half
of the per capita wealth of Hawaii"
