Excerpt from Acquisition and Use of Land for Military and War Production Purposes, World War II Wartime acquisition of land, by the Government, is necessarily different fromvnormal peacetime acquisition. During war it is more hurried and is done with.mere positive powers. There is little time to consider alternatives. Occupants must move quickly, and this is often a hardship? Other large-scale programs for acquiring land the program for the retirement of submarginal land.in the 1930's, the buying of land for reservoirs and power projects by the Tennessee Valley Authority, the flood-control programs, and the establishment of national forests or parks at times have meant similar problems for individuals and communities when the Government bought large areas of land. But during those acquisitions more time could be taken for negotiations with individuals and often, as in national forests, it was not necessary to buy all of the private ownership tracts within the purchase area. In the war projects it was necessary quickly to buy'all properties within a given area. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
