Other things made for field work and stock raising are
 
to be delivered at an accelerated rate and to a larger 
 
extent. The persistent shortage of farm labor is to be 
 
counteracted by this mechanization.
 
     c. Lastly, a broad program is being worked out:
 
the improvement of the village, which is to form the
 
basis for a total reorganization of the conduct of farm-
 
ing operations, in collaboration with all governmental,
 
professional, industrial, communications and other organ-
 
izations concerned. The amount needed for investment
 
for the improvement of the village, that is, from the
 
agricultural standpoint, the erection of dwellings for
 
farm hands, shifting of population and villages, and
 
general improvements, are estimated at from 60 to 75
 
billion.
