BY ELMER w. PETERSON

stockholm, Sept. 15.-(AP)-Part of
the credit for Swedens efficient re-
covery from the depression is given
here to the "own homes movement
and its plan of creating small home
steads owned by the occupant.
This movement has been Sweden's
great gesture toward eliminating the
problem of farm tenancy.
AS far back as 1904 the Swedish
government decided that
l. More land should be brought into
cultivation in the interest of national
economy.
?. Everything possible should be
done to divide the land into parcels
Of suitable size.
3. An increased number of indepen-
dent small farms, providing the far
mer and his family with a means of
subsistence, was desirable.
4. There was a clear social demand
that the population of the country
should be the owners of the land they
till.
State Offers Loans
The result has been the Gown
homes" movement for which 10000

which the state is interested up to
the amount of 320,000,0O0 kronor
(about $80,O00,0OO). Relative to the
size Of Sweden this amount is con-
sidered unusually large.
The loans are granted for the ac-
QUESTION or creation of properties in
tended for agriculture or as dwelling
accommodation. In both cases it is re-
quired that the property be in the
country or beyond the limits of plan
ned town areas. Applicants must be
of limited means and must be good
workmen with a knowledge of farm
ing.
Value of an Gown homes" property
must not exceed $4,000 kronor (about
$4,000 in the case of an agricultural
holding which is undeveloped at the
time of granting the loan. Loans also
are granted for the acquisition of
share-cropper holdings and other
forms of leasehold.
Crown Lands Used
The amount of the loan is at least
one-half, in the case of an agricul-
tural property, and up to five-sixths
the value placed by intermediary
agents on the property. Dwelling
loans have a maximum of three
fourths the estimated valeu of prop
erty. Various supplementary loans
are available and private loans are
facilitated by the government.
Colonization programs on crown"
land and the allotment garden move
ment also have aided in developing
the spirit of agriculture and remedy

The 1887 (presenD fiscal estimates
were blurred by invalidation of the
half billion dollar processing taxes and
enactment of the 1886 tax aimed to
make up the loss. Before either of

trimmed to $6,752,6O6, 900, or about a
billion dollars over estimated receipts.
The two7billion-dollar bonus payment

On June 80 this year the gross debt
was $33, IT'S, $4,000, which scales down
