legislation may be suggested to bring
social functions under social control,
such as to prevent irresponsible real
estate promotion and to encourage
united effort in meeting common needs.
Real Estate Boom Hit.
Some unscrupulous persons are TAX
ing advantage Of the popular interest
in the Tennessee Valley development to
offer for sale real estate where it never
will be needed. This is especially true
at Muscle Shoals. Here there is private
real estate development on a scale to
take care of a population of half mill
lion persons when there is no present
reason for such a boom.
There is no immediate need for skilled
or unskilled labor at Muscle Shoals.
Local housing is more than sufficient
to take care Of the official personnel
there for some time to come. Here and
elsewhere we have asked local Boards of
Trade, Chambers of Commerce and
Real Estate Boards to cooperate to
minimize this unwholesome and unWar-
ranted real estate exploitation.
Also, in planning to acquire for pub
lie purposes land in the immediate Vi
cinity of the proposed Norris Dam at
Cove Greek, the Authority has cau-
toned land owners of this region against
granting options on their land to be
used for selfish speculative purposes.
When 1t comes to fixing prices at which
it Is willing to purchase such land, the
Authority will not recognize speculative
values added during this preliminary
period.

This picture of the Tennessee River
drainage area is in many respects typ

may serve as precedents for other

sion, Senator David I. Walsh of Massa-
chusetts, representing Gov. Ely, stated
his viewS upon how far the Government
should 60, but emphasized that efforts
at relief in the States must first be
taken care Of by the States and local
authorities.
The meeting was called by Mr.. Roose-
Welt on February 8 and at that time 1t
was proposed to conflne this conference
primarily to questions relating directly
to the welfare and relief problems OF
the various States, but - q result Of
the rapid succession of developments
Of the past few days In the financial
and banking situation, it Is understood
that the President has extended the
discussion before this conference to the
subject of the bank holiday now in
effect in every state in the Union As
well as other related subjects.
During the discussion Gov. @. Ben
Ross of Idaho presented what he de-
scribed as the national economic re-
habilitation program, which calls for
issuance Of $50, 900 900 600 non interest
bedring notes to revive employment and
to spread industry and agriculture.
Gov. Ross expressed the belief that
100000 unemployed men could be put
to work Immediately upon necessary
were financed by the Federal Govern
ment through the issuance of the non
interest bearing notes.
Proposes National Work.
His proposal was to issue the notes
in denominations of 81 and upward
In payment OF wages. He proposed
that national survey of industrial
and agricultural projects Of q public
character most needed at present be
carried on by each State Governor and
that the recommendations for work be
submitted to . Federal agency for re-
view and approval. Regarding the
SIC, 600, ,O00 900 issue, Gov. Ross pro-
posed that each note be dated as to its
maturity, the first retirement date to
be within five years from the time the
plan goes into effect. or sooner. In the
discretion of the Treasury; that all
retirements shall be in lawful money
of the United States and that the en-
tire issue should be retired within 33Ls
years from the date of issue at the
rate Of per cent per year.
Predicts 100000 Jobs.
In the opinion of the Idaho Gov
ernOr his plan not only would give
at least 100000 persons employment,
but would result in q general demand
for materials and goods, all Of which
would revive further employment. He
based his estimate of providing work
for 100000 persons on the payment
Of wages at 1888 per day Of eight
hours work, or 81 900 per year for work
done directly on such projects. He
pointed out his plan prevents the dan
ger Of the Federal or local governments
selling Understanding, tax-exempt Sc
curities and thereby jeopardizing the
credit of the country and especially the
market value Of the now outstanding
bonds and other securities.
First Farley Since 1891.
This is the first conference of Gov
ernOrs held in the White House since
