LAND POLICY
0UTLIN EDT0
HELP FARMERS
Scientific Constructive Land
Settlement Program by Nils
A. Olsen

Williamstown, Mass, Aug 20:-0P
The adoption of scientific con-
structive land settlement program to
relieve agricultural ills, was urged
today at the Institute of Politics by
Nils A. Olsen, assistant chief of the
bueau Of agricultural economics, de-
partment of agriculture, in discus
sion of land policies as they relate
to farm prosperity.
Much of the farmers trouble has
been due to federal and state land
policies, which stimulated unwise
extension Of agricultural production,
he contended. He outlined land
policy designed to help place agri-
culture on profitable basis, claim
ing such policy should prevent the
present great reserve of potential
crop land from being brought into
use so rapidly as to cause chronic
surpluses from farm products.
The outgrown homestead policy
with its stimulus to land settlement
should be abandoned, our reforesta-
tion policy should be expanded and
system Of regulation applied to the
uncontrolled open range of the west,
he asserted. Reclamation Of swamp
lands which cannot compete with
lands now in use, and federal and
state activity concerned with shaping
public land policies should be CO.
ordinated, he maintained
High tariff, high production costs,
high land values and surplus which
cannot be profitably sold in world
markets, present an agricultural
problem similar to our own, he said.
