BV RESETTLEMENT
1 9,000,000 Acres Will Be Re
tired From Production
as “Submarginal.”
By ihe Associated Press.
Acquisition of more than 9.000.000
acre* considered unsuitable for crop
production was announced yesterday
by Rexford G. Tugwell, the resettle
ment administrator, with the com
ment that the Government should
buy 10 times as much.
Tugwell said the Resettlement Ad
ministration was committed to pay
*39.916 *03 for the land, under option
In 210 different projects In 44 States,
at an average price of *4 40 an acre.
He added three acres could "not
support human subsistence" when
used as they have been, and so were
being restored to grazing, forestry,
recreation, and other use for which
they were naturally fitted.
5,4*6 Families Still on Tracts.
Tugwell reported 5.476 families
still residing on the tracts "will need
aid In resettling.” More than 3.000
already have been moved, It was dis
closed, and many others found new
homes without aid of the New Deal
agency, some with money received
from their land sales.
"Misuse of the land had brought
Its tell In human misery." Tugwell
asserted, adding his agency's program
aimed at "better uses primarily be
cause chronic poverty, tax delin
quency and Increasing burdens of
local government and relief, tegethe;
with ruthless soil wastage, demand
the change"
Other resettlement spokesmen said
about *100.000.000 had been allotted
to the "land use" program, with a
large part of It for rehabilitation and
development of land after acquisition.
Development work is going ahead
on 141 of the land projects, Tugwell
said, furnishing emplojnient for 55.
000 men from relief rolls.
46 Turned Over to Parks.
Forty-six of these areas are being
turned over to the national parks
service for "recreational projects."
while 63 are being utilised- as wildlife
refuges by the Bureau of Biological
Survey or for Indian rehabilitation
j projects.
The latest project. Milk River land,
! in Northeast Montana, in the dry
i land area, comprises more than 900,
000 acres. Tugwell said this region
"tragically demonstrated Its unsuit
ability for crop production,” with
man}- residents on relief.
