HOW GOVERNMENT CONTROL AFFECTS OUR DEVELOPMENT Southern Land Congress Plans For Continuance Of Work Stopped By Pederat Control President Warfield Points Out Danger In Present Tendencies 4 Savannah, 6a.?In the Southern Land Congress just held here, with fourteen Southern states represented, |'f. it was clearly demonstrated that the I great land associations wmcn are set?** lug Southern development) add, now, a place to locate many of the returning American soldiers, must have adequate support, if they are to continue theix important constructive work. The congress, which was held undei the auspices of four of the largest land associations in the South, all of which were established by the Southern Set' tiement and Development Organization, represented a membership ot more than 3,000, including leading farmers in every Southern state, and over 25,000,000 acres of land. Formerly, this organization, of f which a Dairies Warfleld of Baltimore, Is. president, and which has done stti^h toward Southern agricultural development, was supported largely by railroads operating in the South. Declined to Help 3lnoe government control ?ot the railroads these contributions have p.' been withheld; and, in a striking state* aaent to the land congress. President Warfield said that notwithstanding the appeal made in a petition by 27 Southern senators from 15 states, that the national railroad administration continue these contributions to the or ganixation, the director general de dined on the ground that contributions, should not be made to a "pri rate organization not under govern ment control.* ? ?"?? THIS position was uueu, mmut standing Maryland had granted it a charter, and given it 130,006 from the i state treasury, thus attesting its pub &. lie character. "It is indeed unfortunate/' Mr. Warfield said, "when an agency like this, organised not for gain hut tor the general good, and which is admitted tqr the administration to be 'a highly meritorious one, must be discontinued on a mere pretense in order that autocratic methods may be firmly entrenched. If these organisations are to ao aompUsft their constructive aims in the development of the South and its millions of acres of productive land, the restoration of sanely regulated private management of the railroads is easen" flat" Mr. Wmletd arid waport had thai to flay Iwitor sendee sad the benefit* of hdtvflMt IfttfJK -My enMsMt la,- Mr. War jfletd nM fldy fhitmgti com pre Sessfvw yhMhw moot and regnla (ftcni under pffvate insusgumsif *m Infttetfve, can the best results be ob tained from any of the great Industries of the country." Shippers And Land Owners Concerning the vital interests of the shippers and the land owners, in these problems, Mr. Warfield said: "The shippers and land owners oi the country are as much concerned in the questions at issue ? whether the railroads are owned and operated by the government or under private ownership and operation?as any interest involved. The securities of their own companies, if they are corporations, are affected; and if they are not corporations, tneir business is affected by the sympathetic effect of any actios that adversely affects the billions of railroad securities outstanding. Moreover, the success of the shipper and land owner is directly dependent upon adequate and proper railroad development and service." "If there is a people to whom the very Idea of such a system of paternalism?government ownership and all that It involves?must be repugnant, it is those of us who live in the South." It was determined by the Congress that the four land associations shall take over the Southern Settlement and Development Organization; continuing its work under the suggestions of the officers ef that Organization, an a clearing house and medium through which to give collective expression tc the desires of the land owners of the South, to the end that all sections nf the Southern country may be benefited by the plans of the Secretaiy of the in tcrtor, in providing for returning Amer jM soiflprs awd sailers.

Shall Autocracy Continue? "It may be natural," he said, "that those in power should wish to perpetuate their great powers, but recently granted to them, or as many of them , as they can hold. But such an, autocracy as congress was compelled, under conditions of war, to temporarily set up, it may be safely assumed, was Intended for the purpose of winning the war only. And we must take care, test we sow create in this country the very conditions which the life's blood i of millions of men has been shed to i destroy is other countries!" Asserting that for this very reason, f Questions arising from the two schools of thought ? private or government ownership of utilities ? will likely be ' made political issues, and very soon ; occupy the attention of the two great 1 political parties, Mr. Warfield declared ' that the people of the country must decide upon one of two courses: First, . government ownership, under which [ the railroads will seek to get all they can for their holdings, and without 1 regard to whether such ownership is ' to the advantage or tne peopie; ana, - second restored and properly regulated t /ORDERLY DEMOBILIZATION OF ARMY WILL BE ENFORCED.
