Ire, are land research, planning and
?ucy. in this connection, the tol
ing quotation from the Final Re
frt of National Planning Board 1933
134 will enlighten the reader as to
ftat is intended: -
i 'Planning does not involve the pre
ration of ; a comprehensive, bine
nt of human activity .to be clamped
wn like a steer frame on the soft
sh of the community. Planning
es not involve setting up a fixed
d unchangeable system, but on the
atrary . contemplates readjustment
a revision, as new situations and
oblems emerge. Planning is a con
juous process, and necessitates the
jistant reexamination of trends,
Idencies, policies, in order to adapt
p adjust governmental policies with
8 least possible friction and loss.
te national life is like a moving
ive in which a new epullibrlum
, ist constantly be found as it
eeps forward."
Land use in this country, neglected
r generations, is becoming of im
rtance to all of the people. There
re, I am using an article from Land
licy Review, April 1935, which
ls with one of the most pressing
Id problems of the South.
'Although frequently - expressed
nions, based largely on ethical
isideration, favor compensating
going tenants for improvements
de by them, no compulsory action,
ed on economic considerations,
yet been undertaken in this coun
. To determine the feasibility of
iblishing some policy to effect
h compulsory or semi-compulsory
ipensation, the Land Policy Sec
i has begun a study of our system
land tenure,' in cooperation with
National Resources Board: Mr,
(shall D. Harris will carry on the
arch.
be problem is serious because
e part of the soil depletion and
rioration of farm improvements
ih has taken place in this country
Eg the last half century is direct
tributable to our present system
enancy. Non-resident landlords
to view their rented property as
revenue-producing instrument,
s tenants tend to get all that the
tag will produce before they
on. Neither tenants nor land
can be severely criticized for
actions, since both are motlvat-
y the. pressure of short-time eco-
motives. The landlords have
3 to foresee the increasing prob-
bf soil fertility. Too, major
ig systems have made it impos
ifor many tenants to undertake
improvement of the soil or to
tain its fertility. The solution
Uch of the problem lies in ad
ig methods of leasing so as to
I it possible to increase present
potential yields, to maintain or
ise improvements, and t& the
time to increase both the land
and tenant's income from their
Iments and labor.
j most pressing adjustment ap
tly centers the need for corn-
ting tenants for permanent and
permanent improvements,- and
ting landlords against deterio
of the holding during the per-
tenancy. Other countries, not
Great Britain and certain parts
ker Western European countries,
had, for a long time, favorable
lence with legal enactments
have enabled the tenant to col-
jor improvements he has made

An attempt will be made, through
this study, to work out adequate and

be included in farm leases; the task
Will require a considerable amount
of research and experimentation.
Because of constitutional limitations,
the approach to this nroblem'
to be through legislation by the sev

Compensation problems Center
around an evaluation of(a) the resi
dual value of limestone, manure, and
fertilisers left by the outgoing ten
ant; (b) the improved condition of
the buildings, fences and equipment
effected by the tenant; (c) the dam
age experienced because of the termi
nation of the lease or other inconven
iences, except when caused by the
tenant; (d) the increased productivi
ty because of continuous good farm
ing; and (e) the damage to or deter

Measure Farm Lands
For AAA Compliance
Supervisors who are checking
farmer's compliance with AAA crop
adjustment contracts have been in
structed to measure the fields with
all possible accuracy.
No guess work will be tolerated.
said H. M. Ellis, state compliance
supervisor at State College, and a
careful note will be made of any ex
cess acreage planted.
Where a farmer is found to have
overplanted his acreage allotment,
Ellis stated, he will be asked to re
move the excess from cultivation or
else forfeit his contract and all bene
fit payments he has received.
The measurements are being made
with tapes and other equipment de
signed to insure accuracy. The work
will also be checked by experts to
make sure that no mistakes are
made, he added.
Five re-check engineers will go out
from the college soon, he said, to aid
county supervisors check over the
work done by the township-supervisors.
In cases of dispute, fields will
be measured again if necessary.
To satisfy the farmers that the
work is being done properly, he con
