HIS WAY TO CURE
MANY SOCIAL EVILS
BY LEWIS JEROME JOHNSON.


Land is the basic necessity of human
life. Let us see il all is right with
the terms upon which land may be
used. Calm scrutinty at once reveals
plenty to engage our attention. Here
is at least one vital point where we
are astray
Ownership of land is now permitted
to serve two radically different pur-
poses.
Land may be owned as means OF
getting tribute, for living without us q
full service, as an essential to out
right oppression. The spectators,
dukes and kings know this very well.
Land may also be owned as an in
cident to the construction and enjoy
ment of home. with suitable and it
is to be hoped with adequate and
even beautiful grounds around it; as
an incident to the production of food
and the necessities and comforts of
life; as in incident to a banking, mer-
camille. manufacturing or transporta-
ton or other useful business; as an
incident to wholesome pleasure and re-
creation.
The first purpose is purely oppres-
siye or obstructive: the second is
beneficent in the highest degree. The
first. to put 1t mildly, prevents capt.
tai and labor from getting their nor
NAL return. The second is a conven-
lent and wholesome means for security
IN production and particularly in the
enjoyment of home. property and life.
The first type may hence be called
obstructive land ownership; the sec
ond productive land ownership. The
fact that in individual cases the OBJ
structive and productive purpose are
both present, does not affect the ex-
istence of the two purposes or their
relative merits.
If either the obstructive purpose or
the productive purpose in land owner
ship is to be made favored interest
at the expense of the other, IL either is
to be penalized to substitute the other.
1t would seem plain that the produc-
tive purpose should be the one to be
fostered. But Incredible as it is. we
are acting on the absolutely opposite
principle. We are actually slbsidiz-
ing obstruction at the expense of pro-
duction.
The train of evils produced by such
basic perversion of government as
the maintenance of the obstructive use
OF land at the expense of the produce
tive use Is too long to enumerate now
Prominent among these evils, how
ever, may be mentioned our deranged
ana deadly tax system. Another con-
sequence of our tenderness for the
harmful Use of land is that the pro-
ductive use OF land. from which all
public revenue and all other human
requirements must come, is restricted
In large degree to the poorer land,
and the burdens of life correspondingly
intensified. Another consequence is
the settler forced to the lonely wilder
ness. Another is the city slum. An
other is scarcity of employment An
other is scarcity of employment An
other is inadequate funds for public
Improvement and salaries of public
employees.

LOOK FOR ORDERS
FROM RAILROADS
Steel Mills Place Hope for
Future in Rail
Business


New York, Feb. 17.-Conditions
in the steel industry were consid-
cred improved last week principally
because of announcements indicat-
ing that large orders for rails are
pending from the railroad admin
istration for the carriers under gov
ernment control. The immediate
needs of the carriers are estimated
at 100000 tons. Orders ranging
from 100000 to 100000 tons are
anticipated in the trade. Back
work on 10000 railroad cars has
been ordered resumed with the re-
suit that greater activity will be
seen in the railway supply industry.
Sheets are in brisk demand as
are tinplates. Contracts will be
awarded next Tuesday by the Navy
Department on bids submitted by
leading. companies covering equip
ment for the construction of new
battleships. An order for AZ loco
motives for shipment on account of
foreign interests was reported dur
ing the week. Exports of iron and
steel for the calendar year. 1918,
reached a total of $1,0S6, ,092, $50,
against s1,241, ,960,102 in 1917.
Continued dull conditions prevail
in the PIG iron market. Some slight
export tonnages have been placed
by foreign interests. Reductions
amounting roughly TO Is per cent
have been announced in bar iron.
1t is anticipated that employees
wages will be correspondingly af-
iected.
