Government Taking Unnecessary Lands Flans Revision In Government Policy WASHINGTON (INS) — A justice department official says he is setting about to change government land policy which he admits has led to the unnecessary eviction of many small farmers. In a general report on tion, assistant attorney general Perry W. Morton, vi'ho heads the department’s lands divisions, stated flatly that Uncle Sam has been acquiring large tracts of land far in excess of actual needs. The Mjv policy being started under Morton will apply to the often criticized condemnation proceedings used by the government to take over land for dams, reset“voles. irrigation canals and similar federal projects. 1 Here’s what Morton has in mind: “In future projects, possibly as much as 40 to 50 per cent of lands which formerly would have been acquired by the government for dam and reservoir purposes will remain in the hands of their own0F8" • 11 11 ■ """" ’ T_ “Benefits of the program are obvious. There will be tremendous savings to the United States and unnecessary dislocation of private landholders will be avoided. “Vast areas of land will be left

Senate Passes Reserve Bill; To Conference Republicans Hope For Revision Os Reserve Measure WASHINGTON (INS) — The administration looked to a houaesenate conference committee today to give President Eisenhower a military reserve bill more to his liking than approved by either house so far. The conferees will have to iron out differences between the reserve bill as passed by the house last month and the one which the senate adopted Thursday night by an overwhelming margin of 80 to 1. Only Sen. William E. Langer (R-N.D.) voted against the measure. although Republican Sens. William E. Jenner. Ind., and Andrew Schoeppel, Kan., would only vote “present.” Republican leaders made no move to knock out provisions of the legislation to which the Pentagon objected, deciding instead to rely on the house and senate conferees. Defense secretary Charles E. Wilson warned Thursday night that the regular military services may have to be increased if congress does not pass what he considered a satisfactory reserve bill. Both house and senate measures would raise the authorised strength of the reserves from 1.5 million to 2.9 million men by 1960 and wopld require this civilian force to undergo training to be ready for action in case -nf war. ", Both bills would permit youths to volunteer for six months of active duty to be followed by seven and one half years In the reserves, meaning 48 weekly drills a year and two weeks of summer camp. on state and local tax rolls and the development of recreational and other incidental facilities by local agencies or private individuals will be made possible without federal expense.” In regard to unnecessary eviction of small farmers under previous policy, Morton said investigation has proved that unfortunately the complaint was sometimes well founded. ■ For the future, he explained that real estate acquisitions by the government will be held to an absoJute minimum while much of the land that would have been condemned under the old policy will ‘remain in the hands of private owners. This is to be accomplished in part through the use of easements to permit the passage of water for government projects through some parts of the privately owned land. Morton asserted that this practise- win be applied at once in the case of law suits pending in connection with 25 different projects which average 77,000 acres or more. ' „ He estimated* that possibly 10 per cent of the land involved in these suits can be returned to private ownership. Reporting on- activities of his division in the fiscal year ended June 30. Morton said the government acquired more than 450,000 acres of land during the 12 months at a cost of approximately s6l million.
