BUSH WILLING TO
DEVELOP MEADOWS

Willingness to enter into a partner
ship with the city to reclaim the
meadows by the establishment of an
1ndustrialscentre upon the site Of the
loWlands was expressed oday by Irv-
ing I. Bush, president of the Bush
Terminal, Of Brooklyn, in the first
interview upo the project he has
given since he filed, as an expert, his
comprehensive n constructive plan
with the Board of Works. That Mr..
Bush would offer to invest millions
in the event of the city deciding to
take up his proposition was fore
Swallowed exclusively in last Thurs
days Evening Star.
His offer is the result of confidence
In h scheme to develop the
meadows which met the approval of
E. P. Goodrich, the consulting enEi-
neer of the board. He would lay out
a great manufacturing and distribut-
ing community. as he did at the Bush
Terminal, in Brooklyn.
Contract with Private Company.
Mr.. Bush's readiness to confer with
the oBard of Works in the event Of
NHNA Chb7Ad ing lht ddOpllOH Oh Il6
plan would mean that the next ses-
sion of the Legislature would be
asked to empower the board to en-
ter into the contract with the private
company. So far as is known by
those who have pondered over the le-
gal phases of the project the board
could not agree to condemn proporety
for the company, waive taxes and
then share a commission on the sale
of industrial sites after the company
had borne the expense of filing and
laying out the streets.
Il believe that the meadows of
Newark can be developed along the
lines I have Indicated said Mr.. Bush
this morning. II will back up that
belief by becoming the party to the
contract to carry it out. To lay the
industrial foundation the city must
give the project stability in its in
fancy by cooperating. Myself and
no m or any company could take
over the development because title to
property could not be secured. Con-
demnation by the city is necessary.
Proposition Open and Above Board.
There will be prejudice against
his proposition, no doubt, but it is
open and above board. Confidence
must be had. The city would not
enter into a matter of this kind
without being sure of a square deal,
and so no n should expect a COM
pany to become a partner of the city
in the enterprise without also being
assured of a sduare deal. am too
busy to further elaborate on my
plans or make an offer to the city,
but if the city wishes to consider any
such offer I will make 1t. How many
millions will it take approximately
to develop the meadows? Well, I have
a good estimate, but just now I would
not care to say. However, capital
enough Is at hand. I am enthusiastic
about what can be done with this
immense stretch of waste land, and
] hope the city sees 1t in the RICH
light"

Des Moines, June 1S.-Hardy w.
Campbell. Of Lincoln. Neb.. who is
known the world over as the originator.
of what has come to be known as the
Campbell system for the dry coun-
tries, an acknowledged expert in agri-
cultural matters, visited in Des Moines
yesterday. He has travelled and lee
from Mexico City to Edmonton, and
this winter has been out thru Washing
ton. Montana, Wyoming, Colorado and
Oklahoma.
Crop prospects in that region are
excellent" he, said. "They had more
snow than usual and that puts the soil
in better condition for starting the
work. Wherever they have adopted
scientific and proven methods of Gull
ture Of the soil they are getting good
crops each and every year, and the
number of farmers who are doing this
has enormously increased. The theor-
lists who said all along that nothing
could be done have ceased to talk and
in the face of the records they have
to admit that crops can be and are
grown on vast areas formerly supposed
to be unfit for anything but grazing"
Not Connected With Agents.
Mr.. Campbell is not connected with
the so-called dry farming congress"
which is largely in the hands of col
lege professors and backed by the real
estate interests. In fact the boosters
for what has come to be known as dry
farming" have opposed Campbell at all
times because lie has insisted that their
teachings will not produce results.
Formerly the agricultural department
at Washington bitterly attacked Camp
bell and his work, but in recent years
has changed front and now accepts his
ideas in part at least.
Mr.. Campbell formerly lived in Sioux
City, where he developed some of the
ideas which have since become famous
all over the world. He is in great de-
mand all thru the west for lectures.
