PIONEER PRESS BOOSTS
NORTHERN MINNESOTA

Not more than 20 years ago the
wild lands of southwestern Mlnneso.
ia we're worth not more than the
lands of northeastern Minnesota as
accessible to markets, are worth now.
No further back, the wild lands of
the park region of this state sold at
similar figures.
The increases in land prices there
are just as certain to follow. With
this history of other sections so we'll
known the Pioneer Press gives north
ern Minnesota this very acceptable
boost in recent editorial:
zone of the speakers at the Bemid-
il meeting of the Northern Minnesota
Development association predicted
that land in the northern counties OF
the state will be valued at 500 an
acre in few years. He ventured the
statement as a prophecy. He should
have explained that it is the logical
deduction made after considering
what has happened.
IF a person sees 8 black cloud in
the western summer skies and no.
tees that it is moving steadily in his
direction, experience has taught him
to expect a rain He knows that I'm.
der such conditions rain is certain to
result. The weather forecaster re-
ceives word that a cold wave has
spread over the northwest and is
headed that way. He knows that un.
less something intervenes that it will
be colder in St. Paul in a few hours
1t is not prophecy, but simple horse
sense based on experience.
mo one at all observant and con
versant with the development of the
agricultural districts of the northwest
has failed to note the steady advance
of the wave Of higher land values. II
has moved steadily northward and
westward from the old-settled states
! to Aae south of us.
~ few years ago land was selling
at the prices that now obtain in Nor
thern Minnesota. The rise in values
was steady and progressive The area
Of 800 land widened. It reached
southern Minnesota 1t moved up to
ward central portions Of the state. Il
is continuing steadily and irresistible
toward the northermost boundaries OF
the state Northern Minnesota has
climate and fertility that produce ag
Ticultural wealth. Nothing can stop il
from having 500 land in a few
years."

.FAvoRs MORE RIGID
GOVERNMENT CONTROL
Minnesota Professor Says Il Would
si Stave OF Public OwnersI,ip. %

Prof. John Gray, head Of the de-
partment of political science and
economics OF the University Of Min
nesota, in an address at the opening
session of the twenty-sixth, annual
meeting of the American Economic
association at Minneapolis, advocated
a more rigid government control of
all public service corporations. Prof.
Gray claimed that such control, wise
ly administered, would stay the pos
sibllity of public ownership, for
which the country, he declared is not
prepared.
A large number of delegates repre-
senting nearly every state, were pres
ent at the opening Of the convention
which will continue until Tuesday at
ternoon. The sessions were pre-
sided over by David Kinley of the
University of Illinois, president of
the association. Thomas N. Carver Of
Cambridge, Mass, is secretary.
