This law '»f Nature is n w hei «g made good, for it is lack «»t production in the way of work which acc unts for the scarcity andhigh price f food. “J.D.H.” discusses the question on a higher plane than thatVt politics or economies.The •• Sunday Times ” last week contai ed an a»*surd paragraph to the tff.d that S«m Copley is about to abolish the slums and grime of the town of HuddersfMd he has bought. It is remarkable how such P'fll* onginated, certainly it is by s m**one who knows nothing about it. In the hist place. Sir John Rams-den only possessed and only sold the rights as gr mud owner, which he disposed of to others on payment of an annual rent as lease or ground rent. With the exception of the Estate Buildings Sam Giplcv has not secuied the owueiship ota single building in the t wn. Then again, practically th re are no slums in Huddctsfnld. I’heie are two or th»ee streets which, a hundred years ago, were the main streets in the town, and are now out-of-date for dwt lling.houses; these the town authorities have compelled the owners t:» rebuild and set back as time and oppoi (unity off red under the Powers of their Municipal Act, Sir John R.unsden being contented with a renewal of the leases as they expired on a higher rental. The Huddersfield C rporati in is one of the most progressive in England, and has a municipal debt of some mil-lions, money borrowed for improvements. It has spent about half a million on its technical school and board schools \ it acquired the manorial and market rights of the town by purchase half a century ago, and has one of the finest market halls inthe kingdom, li owns die trams, the gas, water and electricity works, all of which devote their profits, about a quarter of a million a year, to the reduction of the rates of the town. Sam Copley was simply the mediary between buyer and seller, the municipal auth *riiies being the buyers in order to remove the check on their scheme lor the impr *ve-ment and development of the town. As the owner of a slab of the free-h ld of Huddersfield which pays tribute to no ground owner or over I- *rd,I claim to kow something about it.mMPrtlawlitmwr«tirfclaNCPMMSKilitat!in01IANtcbtcesqbe;oalt;mbO'nO’laachaI.VVvVa*1b0VUifhcte1 1VIcoVatlakaitooolaPv.IIbtlIrisClPhClbbaio;nirOiclolsOlClaldtrelt;Cai
