THOUGHTS FOR THE TIMES

LAND settlement policy. It is important for the people of New Zealand to realise that any successful Land Policy under existing conditions must develop along two distinct lines, and it is only just to the Minister of Lands to point out that the measures he has already adopted fulfil these requirements. Mr Forbes has been criticised with some vehemence for invoking the aid of the Lands for Settlement Act. Rut. if the expense of “breaking in” new land is virtually proli bitive, the only practicable alternative is the purchase of land already improved and ready for settlement. Further, it must he remembered that the Government’s land policy, as set forth in last year’s Land Laws Amendment .Act. inch ides the provision of help to the settlor on an unprecedented scale, not only in the form of financial advances, hut by way of preparatory improvement of land before it is taken up. —Auckland Star.
