LAND USE POLICY
Cuba's Strong Man Thinks
Distribution of Holdings
Is First Problem.
Ry the Associated Press

''' N''N '''S'N''' u u A'o9s
HAVANA, July 5-Col. Fulgencio
Batista, head of the army and Cuba S
strong man" yesterday outlined his
''three-year plan" for sweeping reor-
ganization of Cuban agriculture, in
dustry and finance.
Land distribution is the first prob
lem to be considered, he declared in
an interview, but denied that he ad-
vocated widespread confscation or
levies on wealth.
His plan. Batista said has the ap-
proval of President FREDERICK Laredo
Bru and leaders of Congress and is
assured of being translated into law.
The army chief said he believed
the constitutional assembly to be
elected early next year would have
full powers to re-eStabliSh conStitu-
tlonal government in Cuba, which has
been governed under emergency laws
since 1888.
Because of Cubas nature We are
obliged to think first of the farmer
and land problems" said Batista.
But we are interested in bringing
wealth into equilibrium, not destroy
ing it. We are working neither to
create or consolidate an all-absorbing
capitalism nor establish an anarchic
and infecund collectivism.
We want to put the largest number
possible of families on farm land and
educate them in its effective use
Lands now held by the state, to be
recovered by the state or bought by
the state with state funds, will be
ample"
