GOVERNMENT OFFICIAL POINTS
TO DANGER ovERSPREAD-
ING THE COUNTRY.

Dallas, Texas. March 16.-At the
opening today of hearings on the
American land question before the
federal commission of industrial re-
lations, Charles Holman, special agent
for the commission, today outlined
the scope Of work, saying: The ma
tioDs of Europe have outstretched the
United States in formulating national
land policies and the time has come
for the people OF this government to
realize its land inheritance is slipping
away and ownership becoming concen-
trated into the hands of limited num-
Der Of individuals. Moreover. a ten
dency toward further concentration is
evident on all sides. At the same
time tenants who farm the majority
of southern farms, constituting moro
than half the farms of the nation are
being reduced to the status of wage
laborers' Holman urged the need for
a system Of land commissions in the
form of economic courts.
