  • The Farming of Maori Lands
    THE FARMING OF MAORI LANDS CHARLES GOLDSMITH, Te Araroa We have seen how the Maori inherited his land and how through the process of succession the numbers of the owners increased. I$w were lands with such a multiplicity of ownership to be farmed? Any one owner could start something ‘on his own account, and so could everyone else in the block who had a mind to do so. Trouble started and no one got anywhere. The solution lay in leasing to one of the owners, or some other Maori or European, or by incorporating the block. By the latter means, the Committee of Management could borrow money and farm the land in the interests of all the owners. One block with over 500 owners comprising 16,100 acres of virgin country in the Matakaoa County was incorporated in 1913, with the late Sir Apirana Ngata as the Chairman of the Com- mittee of Management. He was empowered by the Court to borrow on the security of the freehold for the purposes of surveying and development. The block was subdivided into 13 allotments, a community woolshed built, and yards and dip erected. The Committee then granted leases of 21 years with right of renewal to selected and approved owners who had gained know- ledge and experience of farming methods from other incorpora- tions or European settlers, especially from the late Mr T. S. Williams, the “father” of Maori farming oh the East Coast. The lessees were in their turn granted loans from the bank on the security of their leases and stock, backed up by guarantees from the Block Committee.

    We feel that these studies merit the closest attention, as much research of this nature must necessarily precede any detailed plans for regional development in different areas—if we regard that as a desirable object. It is hoped that further studies of this nature will be prepared and pub­ lished from time to time in the next year or two. Nobody can claim that Mr Bertram is presenting an extravagant picture, when it is realized that the contributions provided for the three boroughs in the district in his Table D—without rental collections being taken into account—are below the NZLA per capita standard arrived at in 1950-51, a standard which from the financial angle is hopelessly out of date by the present-day cost structure. In other areas of New Zealand, the current contribution from boroughs would show quite a different picture, and the greatest increase would have to come from the counties. Tt is a sobering thought, though, that in this area, and in a number of other regional or provincial areas which come to mind, the public library of the central city or borough, which one would expect to be the mainspring of regional service, is not yet providing free, rate-supported service to its citizens. With this in mind, though, it is obvious that in the present organization of local government in New Zealand, the county councils are the key factor in the overall provision of true library service. LIBRARY SERVICE IN THE GISBORNE DISTRICT: A BRIEF SURVEY C. D. TRUDGEON T h e Gisborne district forms a well defined geographical unit stretching from the Waimana gorge, a little North West of Opotoki, to Cape Runa­ way in the East, and South to the boundary of the Wairoa County.
