Of immediate importance is the pro- posal that the government systemat- | ically go about the work of providing | work for soldiers on existing irrig: tion projects in the west. Later, Se retary Lane suggested, more extensive reclamation of waste land should be put under way, and small farms sold ; to soldiers by the government on long- term payment plan. Mr. Lane outlined in detail his pro-! posed methods of carrying: out this program, which he characterized as part of the “looking ahead work” the nation. Reterring: to the returning soldiers, he said “Being Americans and being young, | they will not ask or expect pension They will want work. They will wan if possible, a chance for a home of | their own.” By systematic government develop- ip ment of idle lands, said Mr. Lane. there will be provided immediate jobs | for these men, labor markets will be; protected against possible collapse by being swamped with a surplus of la- bor, re-established industries will be supplied with an immediate demand for their products, the movement of population to cities will be checked, many “best proven Americans” will be affixed permanently to agricultural occupations, and great areas of land now neglected and valueless will be brought into use. “As an immediate program,” said the Secretary, “we should first offer an opportunity upon our present irri- gation projects for all who wish work at clearing and: leveling the land not now cultivated but for which water is available, or to which water can be brought under the present irrigation system, and that such tracts be de- veloped under an appropriate land- settlement plan.
