Kf ARMINO INTERESTS TO SUPPORTNEW STATUTE Compulsory Purchase and Com V pulsory Leasing of Land by jOcal V Authorities Authorized Create 1 Two Distinct Claeaea. , UowHt Special hnto.) . liomdan. April .-There will be In troduced In parliament next Tueaday or Wedneaday a naw land law dealgned to permit small heiaere to purcnaae farms and real estate. Tha bill will ba moat sweeping ta-exwpe-end-ls-aa pactad to become1 a law. It la to ba favored by tha Lib raj leaders, thara is a strong and growing feeling that tha main planka In tha government pro gram army reform, tha saw army bill or licensing msasure, and tha great Irlah homa rula or devolution scheme da not offer to tha Liberal rotor aurn elantly serious evidences of practloal and concrete sympathy. Tha MIL though It will meat mueh severe criticism, will not. It la believed, ba opposed solely and universally on party means, Tha farming; Interest la Inclined, to arrest extent, to support certain aspects of It. as It must Inevit ably make agricultural labor more plan ttful, whereas now thara are far mora vacancies en tha land than thera are nanehla end auallfled men to fill them. Tha bill will have tha most widespread scope and extant: 1 , " Oompalaoty Faiohaaa, '.,7 ' ;. It will authorise, so it la understood, both the compulsory purchaae and the compulsory leasing; of land by the local authorities. It will create two distinct classes of small holdings in the first case, the allotment of from possibly one-tenth of an sere; as a minimum, to two, three, or four acres held by a man wha win work for tha mainstay of .his existence elsewhere, probably on the large farms; aad In tha other, holdings of from 14 to TS acres, to enable the oocupler to cultivate on Independent and self contained lines... The board of agriculture, which will be supreme In the matter, will appoint commissioners , who will travel up and down tha country; investigating; appll- ' cants for land f roVa whatever district they may come, deciding on the require ments of the applicants and the means of giving- effect to them. Not only the large land owner may be affected, ; t Wta Be sTs Interference. ' - The fanner occupying some (00 or 70S acre may, In vary many casea, be doubtless called on to yield from 10 or mere acre for the common good. -He wOL of course, be left such choice as .to' the portion of the land he will sur render, bat the decision of the commis sioners, subject to appeal, of oourse. to the board of agriculture, will undoubt edly be flneX . .. . V. fc "4 ; At the same time. It may ' be stated eonftdently- that -there-wUI' be no- In terference whatever at the amenities of any- estate.-" The tvA Immediately sur rounding the house will not be affected In any case this the bill will safeguard In tha most explicit fashion. . f The future of the measure should be interesting. . There will be much more Compulsory " leering than compulsory purchase, so it is not anticipated there Will be much need for either the local Or the central authority to borrow very large sums of money for the purpose. One thing ' is certain, so strong Is Opinion - on . the part of most of the Liberals that, .In ease where land is leased, special provision will be made that tha unearned Increment doea not revert to the landlord. As a rule now many land owners will only grant the Short periods of leasing say SI years--snd then resume possession ft this will not be possible under the new bill. 's ' Xomstar Question Xa valid. , i Opinion .Is confidant that the. housing qu action muat, to a certain extent, be Involved In the government measure. It la no good asaignlng a man a holding unless he has somewhere to live on It and therefore, in all probability, . the government will evolve . arrangements for- permitting the erection of dwellings.

This, so ex perience has shown, he is always most wllllna to do, - . . y The , various councils cur, Dorougn, arban and others will. It la believed, have to take over the land operations and their control. The board of agrl culture will only stimulate action and criticise Its outcome.
