735# Howland was mined for guano by American companies 1857-1878 and British
736# 1886-1891; Baker was similar but exact dates are not known.
737# Inhabited by civilians 1935-1942; U.S. military bases 1943-1944;
738# uninhabited thereafter.
739# Howland observed Hawaii Standard Time (UTC-10:30) in 1937;
740# see page 206 of Elgen M. Long and Marie K. Long,
741# Amelia Earhart: the Mystery Solved, Simon & Schuster (2000).
