LAND SETTLEMENT
VIEWS OF LEAGUE GOVERNMENT’S SCHEME The development of a block of land in the Rotorua-Taupo district will probably be one of the first works undertaken by the Government under the Land Laws Amendment Act, according to a letter received yesterday by the executive of the New Zealand Land Settlement and Development League from the Minister of Lands, the lion. G. W. Forbes. A committee consisting of the secretary, Mr. N. G. Gribble and Mr. A. A. Ross was set up to consider a proposal to issue a booklet along the lines of that published by the Victoria Land Settlement Division. It would form a guide to visitors from overseas and prospective settlers. The Government will be asked to co-operate. Some effort to settle the huge areas of waste land through which the railways pass should be made, the executiv considers. The attention of the Ministers of Lands and Railways is to be called to the need for investigating this proposal. Two new members. Messrs. Eric Yates and C. A. Arthur, were appointed to the executive.
