form a productive force from
those who lack. the skill to
operate small farms.
But there is a shortage of
efficient executive staff and
"also the danger that admins
trative overstaffing in these
units may hamper their oper-
ations," the report added.
The survey pointed out that
while many farmers had to pay
for their land, these former
laborers were to be given par
GELS below the 66-acre mini
mum subsistence allowance"
free of charge-to a total of
almost 71a million acres. 1t
commented:
This measure, which may be
considered an act of social JUS
tice, may in the long run create
difficulties for Cuba'S rural
economy, since land donated
free of charge will probably be
badly run and eventually de-
teriorate."
The report made no criticism
of Cuba'S system of paying for
appropriated land with 20-year,
AZ per cent bonds. But it
noted that almost 712 million
acres had been taken over
without appropriation proceed
ings-nearly all belonging to
CubanS.
1t is said the country last
year lost $100 million in export
earnings from its sugar. Only
1852, 900 tons were sold abroad
100000 less thain in 1853
and prices were down.
The report said gross income
per person in Latin America
was 1.3 per cent lower last
year than in 1858 because
gross income, under the in
fluence of extremely adverse
terms of trade, increased less
rapidly than the population"
During 1859, the report said,
Latin America exported more
but prices of its main exports
fell.

Costro's S Lond Reform
Held Peril to Economy

UNITED NATIONS, N. Y,
July 5 (AP).-A United Ma
tions report suggested yester-
day that Cuba is moving too
fast with land reform and CIV
ing away too much land for
nothing.
The 1859 economic survey of
Latin America said, however
the program of land redistribu-
ton was needed because single
crop plantation farming had
impoverished the country.
The Santiago (Chile) Secre-
tariat of the U. N. Economic
Commission for Latin America
prepared the report for the
Economic and Social Council,
convening today in Geneva.
A land reform act of May II,
1859, was designed to abolish
big estates and single-crop
farming in favor of co-opera-
tive units or private farms
with diversified production and
a minimum area of about sc
acres.
The question may be asked
the report said, whether the
great speed with which the
program is being launched is
consistent with the financial
resources, skilled personnel and
minimum facilities which are
essential, if so drastic a rediS-
tribution of land is to be car
ried out without seriously
Ijeopardizing agricultural pro-
duction and therefore the ma
tional economy"
The survey said if the estates
are to be divided up in such a
way that production does not
suffer, a supervised credit
scheme will have to be set up
to lend the new owners money
for tools, buildings and fences.
The report had a good word
for the cooperative farm plan,
which has run into opposition
from some Cubans who hoped
to own their own land. 1t said
the co-operativeS into which
former farm laborerS are being
organized are the best way to

While most of us are recov-
ering from the independence
Day week end, some folks out
in Galesburg, ILL.,. are quietly
celebrating an anniversary all
their own.
A century ago today Abra-
ham Lincoln got his first hon
orary college degree - from
Good Old Siwash."
Lincoln, of course, knew it by
| its right name, Knox College.
1t wasn't until many years later
that George Fitch, Knox 81
immortalized it as "Old Siwash''
in his humorous novels of COL
lege life.
Lincoln was running for
President at the time, so busily
engaged that he couldn't even
take the time to don cap and
gown to receive the honor in
person!
Letter Broke News
In fact, the first he knew of
it was through a letter, dated
July 4, 1860. from his old
friend, Orville H. Browning,
Of Quincy, Ill, a Knox trustee.
In it. Mr.. Browning solemnly
warned the future President
Of the United States:
you will, therefore, after
