FIVE YEAR PLAN
COLONISING VIRGINIA. The Russian Soviet Five-Year Plan is by no means original. When King James I granted in 1606 a patent to "certain knights, gentlemen, merchants, and other adventurers of our Citie of London," to colonise Virginia in America, two of the regulations for the colony stressed the communal character of the venture. It was provided "that for five years after their landing on the Coast of Virginia, the said colonies and .every person therein should trade altogether in one stock, 01* in two or three stocks at most, and hring all the fruits'of their labours with goods, commodities, from England or elsewhere, into several magazines or storehouses; and lastly, every person for the space of five years shall bq furnished with necessaries out of the said mafiazines."
