THE UNEMPLOYED
SETTLEMENT ON LAND
ACQUISITION OF AREAS
It is believed that proposals will shortly be placed before Cabinet for the settlement of the unemployed on the land, and that if they are approved, legislation will- follow. ; Reports are current that tho proposals involve the principle of the compulsory acquisition of portions of ; private holdings not now in use, but it is not possible to secure confirmation of these reports. Since the recent conference of Ministers: and departmental experts, the Bight Hon. J. G-. Coate's has been in close touch' with sub-committees pointed from the main conference with the object of putting the various proposals into concrete form. It is believ-ed-that the object,of any legislation introduced will be to providp for the leasing of undeveloped parts of existing farm properties to the unemployed.
