Land use policy conference reports varied views
About 500 attendees at a Des Moines 2 day national land use policy conference heard conservationists planners and officials from the United States and Canada discuss how to use land more efficiently and meet rising demand for goods and services. Kenneth E. Grant of the Soil Conservation Service set the tone with a history of land use decisions from early settlers to the homestead act and forest reserves. He noted how today inventories show public land about a third of the nation while privately owned rural land dominates. Urban recreation and conflicts over land use were highlighted by Norman Wengert and Lois Sharpe with calls for citizen involvement and guaranteed rights to influence planning. Industry spokesman Thomas Barrow urged performance standards to balance economic and environmental needs.

Quiet in apartments clashes over noise and courts
A restless sleeper Madge sues for quiet but a judge rules that moderate noise is part of apartment living. A new parquet floor case limits upstairs noise to nine to five on weekdays.
