To List Inquirers' Names.

Mr.. Benham proposes that the state
shall supply each land man on the. reg
istered list of agents the names of
each eut-of-the state citizen who
makes inquiries concerning land, that
the agents correspond and send litera-
ture tolsuch of the applicants as they
please. He proposes that the immigra-
tion commission conduct a thorough
advertising campaign with the monev
turned in as fees and that the inn
migration agent or "follow uo' man
supplement the work of the different
agents.
Mr.. Benham believes that if the
agents will agree to submit their ad-
vertisirfg and advertising literature
to state censorship there will be fewer
MISREPRESENTATION of Minnesota lands
and that the land business in the state
will be. brought to higher plane. He
believes that the creation of such a
system as he outlines would result in
valuable advertising for the state,
that Minnesota would gain reputa-
tion for protecting immigrants and
that there would be great increase in
the number of immigrants because
the fact that the state is protecting
land sellers would be advertised and
the advertising of agents, after ap-
proval by the comm ission, would bear
the state guarantee that the agent was
reliable and the factsas represented in
the advertising. He says there is
no incentive for misrepresenting Min
nesota lands, that the telling of the
truth will result in a land awakening
which will surprise the country and
that the way to get the ball rolling
for the land awakening is to have the
real estate agents and the state pull
together.
Would Increase Sales.
State land sales, according to Mr..
Benham. would be increased were the
deparSalent TO be rsorganized as he
suggests. SHe declares that there
would be great increase in Minnesota
land advertising and that the money
turned into the department in fees
could be used for advertising all Min
nesota land.
Mr.. Benham believes his plan is
practical and that it would not be
necessary to wait for the meeting of
the Legislature to put it into effect.
He says that indications point to the
best year in Minnesota history, from
land standpoint, and that he believes
the law gives the immigration COM
