CLOSER LAND SETTLEMENT
THE S POWER OF RESUMPTION. [By Electric Telegraph—Copyright] [United Press Association.] (Received 9.20 a.m.) Sydney, July 28. Referring to Mr Massey’s remarks on the subdivision of estates, the Telegraph says: “It is significant that the New Zealand Opposition is urging more drastic measures for compulsorily bringing land into closer settlement. In New South Wales, Radicalism under the name of Labor is hostile to resumption by purchase as practised by tbe late John Ballance and bis successors, forgetting and ignoring the fact that the reserve power of resumption is a powerful incentive to large owners to voluntarily subdivide.”
