Abstract
THERE assembled in 1946 at the University, of Chicago, by invitation of the Farm Foundation, a gathering of seventy-six persons of diverse interests connected with the land to discuss problems of tenure, especially in their relation to the family farm. This volume is the report of that conference. It has an international flavour, some three-fifths of it consisting of authoritative papers on the land tenure systems of a dozen different countries ; but it is on the United States that attention is focused, not surprisingly, seeing that ninety per cent of those present were from that country.
