The proporfibil of the total num ber of farms operated by tenants va ried from a high of 79 per cent in Dillon county to a low of 10.per cent in Charleston county.

ABOUT PEOPLE YOU KNOW unavailability of many necessities of life all reflect the low level of living of many tenant families. To have a satisfactory tenancy sys tem there should be an opportunity for continuous higher incomes of landlord and tenant alike. Tenants should be encouraged to develop cer tain skills in order to increase their productivity. Dr. Rochester suggests all features of farm tenancy are not bad, since tenancy may be regarded as a step toward farm ownership. The road to ! I farm ownership should be kept open for those tenants who are able to achieve this goal. He urges that the best efforts of educational, research, legislative, and other institutions, as well as that of landowners and ten ants, be devoted to improving the tenancy system and providing oppor-! tunities for qualified tenants to be-j come owners- :: :: Kennedy was here for the week-end.
