ABSTRACT
The Land-Leasing or Purchasing Associations vary somewhat in technique from that of the co-operative farms. Congress, though refusing to liquidate Land-Leasing or Purchasing associations, passed a law directing that no new enterprises of the kind be instituted during 1943. The F.S.A. Greenbelt Communities may likewise prove significant in planning post-war rehabilitation. The rapid expansion of F.S.A. experiments reflected the enthusiastic attitudes of the farmers and the landowners. The Greenbelt Communities, like the F.S.A. experiments discussed, formed part of the rehabilitation programme, but in their case the principal aim was to improve housing conditions for townspeople and farmers. Cotton acreage has been distributed according to the size of the family, on the principle that the available land should be used for the benefit of the greatest number but without sacrificing economy of production.
