To realistically provide Big Land By M. McINTYRE HOOD Special to The Oshawa Times LONDON ~-- Some English municipal ils are i in for severe criticism because of the huge profits they are making on land which they have expropriated, and have later sold for a greatly enhanced fig- ure. The shortage of land for building has sent prices in some sections of the countfy soaring, and some glaring instances of municipal councils taking ad- vantage of this to make large profits have come to light. In one case, at Banstead, Sur- rey, a firm 10 years ago sold 30 acres of land on a compulsory purchase order. The council paid $7,000 for the land. The firm, however, in view of the Councils Making | tioned about the deal, said: appears profit.
