STATE MAY TAKE OVER LAND AS

AFTER WAR ACT

France Considering Sociali

zation of Soil and Building

, : "Garden Cities."

Rich Girl Lives Three Days In New York On 27 Gents

T

PARIS, June 14 (Mail) -Nationali

zation,'' or state ownership of land,

decentralization of the population, and

the replacing of ruined towns by spacious "garden cities," are among the propositions put forward in the discussion of the reconstruction of

northern France.

The French parliament has adopted the principle of indemnities In full to property owners for the amount of losses by the war. This, in the opinion of advocate of theses measures gives the state an excellent opportunity to take over the

land and thus be able to extend on a large, scale experiments in the estab

lishment of garden cities through cooperative enterprises such as that af

Draveil, In the department ox seme

and Olse. 300 Families Interested

This co-operative town started in 1909 with a capital of twenty thousand francs; it now has a capital of 800,000 francs, in which 300 different families

are Interested. The essential feature of the Dravefl society were the purchase of land and

construction of buildings on the installment plan. The state had noth

ing to do with this except by lacmtatlng loans through the public loan Institution. In the project for the devastated regions of the north of France it is nronosed that the state, after acquir

ing the land, lease it to the different communes which in turn would let It

to co-operative societies or to indi

viduals for farming or for building,

.under restrictions that would prevent

the concentration of too great a popu

lation and could reserve to every set

tlement ample breathing spaceB, public parks and playgrounds with the

most Improved hygienic installations.

RICHMOND WILL GIVE 170 MEN FOR NEW ARMY Names Will Be Drawn Next Week Two Districts in County.

Names of every man in Wayne county who registered for the draft were posted at the Palladium office this afternoon and the serial numbers of the entire county may be obtained by consulting the two lists. There has been some confusion at the office of the county clerk resulting from persons trying to find the numbers of men not living in Wayne, Boston or Franklin townships. The county is divided into two districts, Wayne, Boston and Franklin towships forming one district and the other townships of the county forming the other. The numbers of persons living in the second, or western, were made up at Cambridge City and are posted there and at the Palladium office. There has also been an impression made that the draft numbers already have been selected, and that the men who are to make up the new army already have been chosen. This however, will not be done until the first

part of next week when the full list of names of those selected will be pub

lished.

Richmond will furnish about 170 men for the new army according to the figures given out by the state con

scription department

He saw Richmond people., wearing wooden shoes while others strapped roller skates on their feet. According to C. H.
