what public policy in regard to ten
antry should be. Is the effort to
adapt ourselves to changes taking
place justifable, or should we
frankly recognize that the coming
Of the tenant house means ultimate
social disintegration and the appear
ance in rural life Of population
which will, regardless of what their
native ability may be, occupy per-
manently lower place in economic
life and be compelled by their cir
cumstances 10 maintain a lower
standard Of living?
Family Unit Rises
in Importance
In the last fifteen or twenty years
the Central Valley has witnessed a
marked rise in the number Of family
reunions held in rural districts. The
renewed Importance Of the conscious
ness of family connections has a
close relation to economic changes
taking place. During a large part
Of the last century family connec-
tons had little to do with ones so
cial standing, particularly in pio-
neer communities. People came from
all parts Of the country to settle
new land, and personal worth went
far toward determining the social
position of those making up the ag-
gregation. Family consciousness and
material success 90 together. The
family reunion has been the occa-
sion Of renewed social life, but it has
represented a renewal that from the
community point Of view does not
promise the largest group unity
The growth of the cooperative
movement among farmers in Europe
has brought to America a realiza-
ton Of the large possibilities Of de-
yelopment of a better agricultural
and rual life here through more eff
fective organization. Effective or
ganization has been shown by expert
ence to depend upon intelligence, no
mogeneity Of population, stability,
intimate acquaintance and commu-
nifty of social interests. Increase in
tenantry destroys every one of these
necessary bases of successful organi-
zation, and unless some policy is
adopted which will lead to perma-
nency, homogeneity and stability, the
outlook for effective economic or
eanization in America is not good.
The experience Of the race appears
to Justify the private ownership of
land by the operator thereof for the
reason that such ownership tends TO
preserve and TO improve the property
held and to insure its most efficient
use for society. If the principle that
private ownership Of farm lands by
the operator is desirable for the So
cial good is accepted, then it follows
that constructive measures SHOULD be
taken by the state, while the problem
is not yet acute, to prevent the rise
Of either a permanent tenant class
or Of a permanent proletariat in the
country. Alternative policies. such
as planning tenant houses, or de-
vising tenant contracts, cannot offer
permanent solution of the problem
Public discussion, without state ac-
ton, is more likely to increase class
consciousness and discomfort than 10
bring about satisfactory adjustment
The tendency toward tenantry car
only be controlled by adequate legis-
lation intended TO correct the in
fuences causing the tendency.

Thirty years ago we produced
three times as much iron and steel
as Germany Fifteen years ago we
exported four times as much. But
on the eve of the war the Germans
were making iron at the rate of co.
100000 tons a year, against our TO-
5000; they were making steel at
the rate of 100000 tons a year,
against our 100000; and they were
even exporting iron and steel at the
rate of 100000 tons a year, against
our 100000.

1t is therefore quite possible TIA,
the world will only have two really

years after the war. Germany vii

pacity is nearly four times as grsg
as that Of Britain. The America
workmen give a larger output Pc

in the last fifteen years before Oh
