Without land reform
it’s pie in the sky
By Ray Cromley
WASHINGTON — (NEA) — There is growing evidence U.S.
economic aid is largely wasted in those underdeveloped countries
where farmers don’t own their own land.
Yet, strangely, it is precisely for such countries that the bulk of
individual U. S. aid is currently earmarked — lands like India
Pakistan and Bangladesh.
Moreover, there is no evidence that pumping multi-millions in
assistance to such nations encourages effective change. Unlike
trends in the U.S., Japan, Taiwan and South Korea, the rich get
richer and the poor poorer, and infant mortality remains at alar-
mingly high rates.
Our aid to countries lacking land reform seems to fail, even
when we directly and indirectly pump in millions for dams,
roads, electricity, currency support, cooperatives and for
agricultural improvements — where land reform is missing.
Some of the countries with the worst showing, in fact, are those
m which, with fanfare, we introduced major new strains of rice
- as a part of the green revolution. The escalation in oil prices,
blamed by many, applied to most underdeveloped countries and
therefore does not explain away the startling contrasts between
those which made major strides and those which did not.
Listen to Dr. Roy Prosterman, of the University of
Washington, who, with colleagues, has recently completed a
comparative study of land reform, infant mortality and other fac-
tors which, statistically at least, correlate with increasing
agricultural productivity and self-sufficiency in underdeveloped
countries:
“ . . . technology, without motivation, is not enough, and the te-
nant farmers and landless laborers of countries like India and the
Philippines have shown — in every single country, every one —
that they will not make the vital on-farm improvements, such as
new drainage and water systems and land levelling, that are
crucial to producing a good first crop and absolutely prerequisite
to producing any second or third annual crop. Non-owners will
not make these or other essential agricultural improvements ...”
According to Prosterman’s data, the three nations in East Asia
which have done best in increasing rice production in the past
quarter century — Japan, South Korea and Taiwan — ended their
landlord systems before 1953.
By contrast, increases in rice output per acre in India, Pakistan
and the Philippines, where there has been little or no progress in
land reform — have been a third to a fourth as great.
The wheat story is the same. Mexico, which redistributed land
effectively years back, more than tripled output per acre
between 1951 and 1974. Pakistan and India, despite large amounts
of agricultural aid and technical assistance, did only a fourth as
well.
In passing, Prosterman notes that collectivized rice farming in
North Vietnam has done barely better than the landlord system
of India or the Philippines in productivity increases. And China
has been outpaced by Japan, South Korea and Taiwan in im-
proved rice yields. Mexico has far outpaced the collectivized
Chinese wheat farms.
interestingly, tne decline m infant mortality is most signifi-
cant in those lands where the farmer owns his land or, according
to local custom, has the equivalent of ownership.
In Mexico, infant mortality was reduced from 105 per thousand
the first year of life, to 61. In Taiwan, the reduction was from 71
deaths per thousand to 18, in Japan from 67 to 12, in Barbados
from 152 to 31, in Jamaica, from 90 to 31, in Trinidad and Tobago
from 71 to 18.
The rate in India was 139 per 1,000 in 1951-61. It was unchanged
in 1972-73.

The Bicentennial Mural Idea
In line with Peggy (Mrs. Denny) Tucker's published idea for a downtown
locally painted Bicentennial mural is this later expression from G. R. Marshall,
Texas community improvement specialist:
"The Bicentennial affords the young and old a perfect topic for communi-
cation and conservation. Have you thought of asking these two groups to cre-
ate a mural on abiding issues which have characterized Texas society and life
from its beginnings - issues which affect our lives today and which will just
as surely affect our lives for the next century?
"A spot in the community which needs sprucing might be the exact place
for this creation, and one that is visible to the general community. Such an
endeavor could be the catalyst to bring about improvements for the total
community and a conversation piece that might create an awareness for the
part each person plays in shaping heritage.
Sounds good, doesn't it?
