DOMINION LANDS.
PRICES TOO- HIGH. BY CABLE—PRESS ASSOCIATION—COPYRIGHT , Received July .4, 1.15 p.m. LONDON, July 3. The overseas settlement delegation's report on New Zealand comments on the lack of a land settlement policy, which is aseribable to the Government’s prior obligation to settle soldiers. The delegation alludes to the apparent high prices of land on which settlers are now obliged to utilise the first fruits of their labour for paying off the debts and interest, which is inseparable from high priced land. Furthermore, the Dominion fanners, for the same reason, are so burdened that they,- cannot, employ farm labour at the current wages. Aus.-N.Z. Cable Assn.
