Minister Fetroff Proposes the American System of Awarding Farm Lands.

OMSK. Siberia, June 2. The' American system of settling farm- J rs upon government land by dis- . tributing it amnn? them either ftee oi at nominal cot has inspired N. J

I'etroff, th minister of agriculture of the all-Jtussian, or anti-bolshevik government, to formulate a similar plan for dividing Russian land among the peasants. The minister said that he was convinced that this plars would le most ariVanta reous and that the develop

ment of the land muat. t.e left '-x-j clusic!y to the peasants. Smalt ! landholders, he said, must hae a chance to extend their possesions i of land on their merits as farmers. Minister I'etroff declared that ;fny j program of rebuilding the Russian i nation must satisfy the demands of' the farmers and that the only feas- j ible wav of doing this was by lease ! afid purchase The project' he has drawn up pro-j

vides for a special set fund to buy; up land and distribute it among the i

peasants, both those now ansoiutely without land and those who have at present an inadequate area.
