Mr. D reiterated that Min insists on a 3000 acre lease \u201clessee to be under some constraint,\u201d c\/p just allow areable. Insists we are not business & we have to cut out the plane area above the Kaituma branch.<\/p>\n

Argument over cost. GBM sez $1800. Will not go down. Will not commit for a finish date: Seems that \u201cresource area\u201d is just a present political convenience. Don\u2019t know how we might come out.<\/p>\n

    Re:<\/p>\n

    According to the lease [handwritten insert:A9890<\/span>1\/2\/3843] between the government [hw insert: of Guyana (Lands & Surveys Division)] and the Peoples Temple Agricultural Mission, (Sect.[blank]) [10,000] acres of the [3852\u00a0 <\/span>\u00a025,000] in the North West District leased to the Project are unusable. This was determined by the survey of this land done in [blank].\u00a0 The land is not good for cultivating because of [blank].<\/p>\n

    Up to this time, we have been paying rent on the entire acreage. We would like to request a reduction in this rent<\/p>\n

    Report on Status of Lease<\/p>\n

    On about the 15 th Several of us talked with Mr. Dinnally, the Commissioner of Lands. He said that he was prepared to finalize the lease as soon as the survey was completed and handed in. He said that he was not in a position to keep the Provisional Lease in effect, and felt that it would not be in our best interest to do so because of the rental expense that we would assume as a result thereof. He showed us the file with the Ministers notes in it saying that the remaining area should be held in reserve for us. We said that we would like written confirmation because our plan covers the entire area etc.\u00a0 He replied that that would be a political decision, and suggested that we write to him a formal letter request.\u00a0 The attached letter followed in consequence.<\/p>\n

    Talked to B Matthews Thursday.\u00a0 He said that the physical survey has been completed, and drafting work only remains to be done.\u00a0 He had to go to P.K. to get the field notes (he did not do the work himself, an employee did it) and bring them back to town to complete the mathematics and do the map.\u00a0He said that they would be ready to hand in at the end of the month.\u00a0 Mr. Dinally has said that the lease wouldtake just a few days to issue once the survey is in.<\/p>\n

    Our idea, if we get written confirmation, is to have B. Matthews complete the work on the big survey, which consists of the math and map making – $2000 under our original contract, and to file it with the Commissioner of Lands. This is so that there should be no question about the boundaries of the area that will be held in reserve for us.\u00a0 If<\/u> this all works out we should have the balance reserved without the rent obligation.<\/p>\n

    This plan or arrangement will not give us logging rights over the whole area of the Provisional Lease.\u00a0 To get these rights it would be necessary to make application to the Conservator of Forests in the Forestry Dep.\u00a0 I do not forsee a problem as the Govt. is encouraging the timber industry in every way it can.<\/p>\n

    Re:\u00a0 Lease Application No. 1\/2\/3843<\/u><\/p>\n

    Dear Sir:<\/p>\n

    On 10th<\/sup>April, 1974 we were issued a Provisional Lease for twenty-five thousand (25,000) acres.\u00a0 Therefore, the entire area was surveyed.\u00a0 In our recent meeting with the Honourable Minister of Agriculture, Mr. Gavin Kennard, and yourself, it was determined that a permanent lease for a portion of the land held under the said provisional lease would be presently issued, and the remainder of said lands be held for our future expansion<\/p>\n

    It is our intention to occupy and develop the entire area covered by the said provisional lease.\u00a0 It is our firm conviction that the entire area will be best developed by one coordinated development plan and our project is designed with that plan.<\/p>\n

    To date our rate of development has been considerably less than our capability.\u00a0 Members of the Board of Trustees have been unwilling to commit our maximum resource until the legal aspects of the program (i.g. corporation , lease, etc.) were completed.<\/p>\n

    Accordingly, we are requesting written confirmation that the balance of lands included under said provisional lease will be reserved for us, and leases for parts thereof be issued therefore seriatim as each leased area is substantially developed.<\/p>\n

    Yours faithfully,
    \n______________

    GENERAL SUMMARY<\/u><\/p>\n

    This project plan is intended to modify and supplement the plan heretofore submitted.\u00a0It covers the first ten year program proposed by applicant for the development of the 25,000 (more or less) acres described in the map on file.\u00a0 All areas situate at 60 foot contour and below will not be used due to risk of flooding.\u00a0 All lands having a gradient of 15 degrees or more will not be used due to erosion problems.\u00a0These areas will be left as \u201cgreenbelts,\u201d as will lands for 150 feet on either side of streams.\u00a0 By this means it is hoped that climate, surface water and other ecological factors will not be adversely affected by extensive land clearing.\u00a0Thus it is estimated that only 50% of the total land will be used for agriculture, the remainder retaining its natural state.<\/p>\n

    Site development<\/u> has begun with the construction of a road along the east-west ridge which forms the backbone of the leasehold.\u00a0 This same ridge forms the divide for watershed between the Barima and Kaituma rivers.\u00a0 The road extends for three miles into the center of the proposed lease area.\u00a0 One half mile off of the ridge, an irregularly shaped 60 acre area is being developed as a town site.\u00a0 Here will be constructed housing, a large all purpose building (dining, church, meeting, recreation, etc.), administrative offices, laundry, cold storage, infirmary (cottage hospital), barns, repair sheds, dairy, pig and poultry houses, wood and metal shops, water and fuel storage facilities, an electrical generating plant, and sewage treating and disposal plant.<\/p>\n

    -1-<\/p>\n

    C-4-a-8-c<\/p>\n

    Agriculture and livestock development\u00a0<\/u>began last Autumn with the clearing of approximately 110 acres.\u00a0 The Fall was very wet so that we did not obtain a good burn, but we did plant over 60 acres.\u00a0 Most of the planting materials needed for future production are not growing on the farm.\u00a0 At the conclusion of the Spring planting season over 180 acres will be planted, including 60 acres designated for pasture.\u00a0 The basic agriculture development will be expanded at the rate of 300 acres per year, weather and labor supply permitting.<\/p>\n

    Pig rearing\u00a0<\/u>will begin in the Spring of 1975 with two boars and 20 brood sows.\u00a0 The plan is to expand the total population to 300 animals in 18 to 20 months.\u00a0 This would permit an ongoing monthly production of 5,500 lb. live weight.\u00a0 All animal feeds will be raised on the farm, and only vitamin and medicinal supplements will be imported.<\/p>\n

    The dairy herd\u00a0<\/u>will be introduced in the summer or early fall of 1975 as soon as pasture is sufficiently developed to accommodate the animals.\u00a0 We will use legumes, sugar cane, corn and provisions as food supplements. Our present plan is to acquire local dairy cattle and to upgrade the herd by selective breeding techniques, though we do intend to expand the initial herd to 50 cows by purchase.\u00a0 From the fresh milk produced by the cows, dried milk and butter will be produced.\u00a0Later, a beef cattle herd will be developed from the culls of the dairy cattle, and bred toward a beef line.<\/p>\n

    Land clearing\u00a0<\/u>has commenced as indicated above. As much acreage will be cleared as weather and utilization permit.\u00a0 Our benchmark is 300 acres per year.\u00a0 Hand labor is being used to clear, and only areas to be ultimately devoted to tree or row crops are subsequently winrowed by bulldozer.\u00a0 We hope to utilize techniques which will reduce the use of machinery to a minimum.<\/p>\n

    -2-<\/p>\n

    C-4-a-8-d<\/p>\n

    We will strive to fell and burn a maximum amount of land, but will defer the stumping and winrowing processes.\u00a0 We will use the\u00a0 newly burned land for catch crops, then for pasture over several years until much of the remaining wood has rotted.<\/p>\n

    STAGED DEVELOPMENT SCHEDULE<\/u><\/p>\n

    Preliminary<\/u>\u2013 January 1<\/u>,\u00a01974 to August 1<\/u>,\u00a01974<\/u>.\u00a0\u00a0In this period the following events took place:\u00a0 site location, preliminary planning, leasehold application, commencement of incorporation procedure, arrangement for housing for the first workers group, procuring initial equipment, initial clearing, survey and road building.<\/p>\n

    Phase One <\/u>\u2013August 1<\/u>, 1974 to March 1<\/u>, 1976<\/u>.\u00a0Toward the beginning of this period the work force will be brought up to about thirty persons to be increased gradually thereafter according to our capability of absorbing them into the project, and the work load.\u00a0 All of the basic machinery and equipment will be brought in.\u00a0 (See schedule of machinery and equipment.)\u00a0 Of the facilities described in the Summary, all will be constructed except for 40% of the housing.\u00a0 Agriculture will be carried out as indicated in the land clearing and utilization charts.\u00a0 Much of the clearing and planting at this stage will be done with contract labor.<\/p>\n

    Phase Two<\/u>\u2013 March 1<\/u>,1976 to September 1<\/u>, 1977<\/u>.\u00a0The remaining housing will be built and over this period of 18 months additional people will come.\u00a0 Many of these will be the wives and children of the workers who came previously.\u00a0 Some will be professional and semi-professional persons such as nurses and school teachers, as well as persons skilled in agriculture.\u00a0Additional lands will be cleared and utilized as set out in the charts.\u00a0 A reservoir will be built as shown on the map and an irrigation system developed.\u00a0 During this period the food processing plants will be completed, including:\u00a0 butter and dried milk plants; small cassava starch and cassareep manufacturing plant; an animal food production plant.<\/p>\n

    -4-<\/p>\n

    C-4-a-8-f<\/p>\n

    Phase Three and Subsequent <\/u>\u2013 September-1977 and thereafter.\u00a0 <\/u>The basic farm plan will be expanded in those areas which have proved successful.\u00a0Land will be cleared as fast as weather, available labor, and utilization will permit.\u00a0 The basic population of the town will be expanded primarily by the inclusion of those Guyanese persons who choose to join the community and are willing to participate with respect to its goals, lifestyle, and economic structure.\u00a0 Social and educational programs will be developed and integrated with those of the local community, including a school and sports center.\u00a0 We hope to build a small hospital or a nice size clinic and will do so unless there are economic limitations.<\/p>\n

                                    Dear Dr. Reid:<\/p>\n

                                    We are well pleased with the cordial reception we have received in Guyan a. Past or Jones, upon his return to th U.S. has had fine thing s to say abou t this country and its Government .\u00a0 Last weeken d these comments were received by the Mayor of the largest cit in California, who attended our services.<\/p>\n

                                    There are two poin ts which relate to our program in\u00a0Guyana which we feel need your help.\u00a0The first is simply<\/span>speed in administrative handling.\u00a0 Due to inflation we need to order equipment at the first available momen t.\u00a0 You are undoubtedly acutely aware of the current impact of inflation upon our buyin g power.\u00a0 Upon acceptance [crossedout word(s)] we will immediately beginn implementation of our plan .<\/p>\n

                                    The second point relates to the proceedure [procedure] for obtaining permanent residence visas.\u00a0 Regulations require a police report from the area of residence.\u00a0 We have the best of relations with local police, however, as Pastor Jon es may have told you, we wish to make this transition with as little publicity as possible.\u00a0 This is because our economic base inth e U!S! would be sub stantially impaired if our intended move were to be publicized.\u00a0 Further, a few unscrupulous newspaper reporters might use the information to injure our ministry.\u00a0 Should requests for reports be sent covering several hundred persons, as our plan indicates, the information in the hands of clerks and petty officials would surely leak out. \u00a0We therefore wish to have this provision waived, and substitute therefore the personal endorsement of Mr. Timothy Stoen, Assiatant District Attorney, Mendocino County, California, or other suitable endorsement.\u00a0 We feel that the manenance of the confiden tiality of our moove is essential, and it is for this reason that this request is made.<\/p>\n

                                    Of course the U!s. government is fully informed concerning our activities.\u00a0 We describrd\u00a0our planned agricultural mission to the Consulate and they were warmly receptive.\u00a0 They requested that we keep them informed of our progress, and we shall do so.<\/p>\n

                                    Th ank you for your help and your sympathetic consideration of these matter.\u00a0 We regret having to write, and thus taking your valuable time.\u00a0 An attempt was made to meet with you but we did not suceed [succeed].<\/span>[hw:] have not yet been able to do so<\/em>\u00a0Should you have any question about these matters we would be pleased to meet with you at any time.<\/p>\n

                                    Starting with a population of 100 we intend to built up to a population of 2,000 mixed layers and fryers.\u00a0 This is intended as primarily a home consumption industry and will not be expanded into a commercial enterprise unless a market is readily evident and adequate transport is available.<\/p>\n

                                    Pigs<\/u>:<\/p>\n

                                    Starting with a population of boars and 20 sows total population of 300 animals will be reached in about 15 months.\u00a0 The population will be stabilized at that level for the foreseeable future.\u00a0 This will enable us to ship about 30 animals per month, or 6,000 lbs., live weight.<\/p>\n

                                    Cattle<\/u>:<\/p>\n

                                    We contemplate raising both dairy and beef cattle.\u00a0The dairy will be started first, probably with 35 animals in the fall of 1975, the population to be built up primarily as we when we have developed sufficient power and refrigeration to handle substantial amounts of dairy products.\u00a0 This should be completed beyond the scope of this plan.<\/p>\n

                                    Notes on Certain Crops<\/u>:<\/p>\n

                                    Corn, some blackeye peas (low grade), sweet cassava, some pigeon pea (low grade), sweet potatoes (rejects), banana and plantain (rejects) will be used in the manufacture of animals feed, as well as the sugar cane.<\/p>\n

                                    Miscellaneous<\/u>:<\/p>\n

                                    In addition to the enumerated crops we will be planting a large home consumption garden and test crops of a variety of plants such as soya bean, ginger, turmeric, tomato, sorghum, and others which are not specifically mentioned because they have no commercial importance at this time but may be planted in the future in commercial quantities when tests prove that they are both biologically and economically viable.<\/p>\n

                                    Dear Sir,<\/p>\n

                                    I beg to bring to your attention that under Contract dated the 21st February, 1974 I have been retained by The Peoples Temple of the Disciples of Christ to Survey and Demarcate the area of State Land held by them under State Land Lease DL 1\/2\/3843 and situated on the right bank Kaituma river; this Lease falls on State Land and as such I would be most happy if you may grant the necessary permission, under the State Lands Ordinance, for me to execute the Survey and Demarcation.<\/p>\n

                                    Attached for your information is a print showing the proposed boundaries of the area to be surveyed; it is intended to use the information from the 1:10 000 Topographic Sheets produced by Terra Surveys (Plan No. 15013) and the 1:50 000 Topographic Sheets 4 SE and 5\u00a0SW to plot the completed Original and Duplicate plans to a scale of 1:25 000 while the area would be obtained by planimetric methods.<\/p>\n

                                    Hoping for your co-operation in the foregoing.<\/p>\n

                                    Yours co-operatively,

                                    C-4-a-17b<\/p>\n

                                    I\u00a0Preamble<\/u>:<\/p>\n

                                    We wish to extend our appreciation to all branches and personnel of the Government, and to the Co-operative Republic of Guyana for the opportunity to present this plan; and for their generous cooperation, assistance and hospitality without which its development could not have been possible.<\/p>\n

                                    It is our desire and intention to work with the Government toward the fruition of the FCH Program and the development of the Kaituma area.\u00a0 We are fully aware that it will only be through our joint effort and cooperation that this plan will succeed.<\/p>\n

                                    II\u00a0Proposed description of land to be taken up<\/u>:<\/p>\n

                                    A tract of approximately twenty thousand (20,000) acres bounded on the south by the Port Kaituma-Matthews Ridge Railway, on the east by existing surveyed lands, on the north by the Kaituma River and on the west by a line to be determined. The property is outlined on a map which is attached to this plan, and marked Schedule One.<\/p>\n

                                    III\u00a0Form of Taking and Holding Land<\/u>:<\/p>\n

                                    The land is to be taken and held in an agricultural lease.\u00a0 The Peoples Temple Church shall be registered in Guyana and shall be the lessee.\u00a0 This form of holding is preferable because the church corporation is the depository<\/p>\n

                                    -1-<\/p>\n

                                    C-4-a-17c<\/p>\n

                                    of the collective assets of the congregation, and because the laws of the State of California, and the United States of America restrict the use of funds for individual purposes. A copy of a suggested lease form is attached for reference and marked Schedule Two.<\/p>\n

                                    IV\u00a0Land use<\/u>:<\/p>\n

                                    The ultimate use of any specific area will, of course, depend upon contour, elevation, soil type and area size, so that specific details of use must await clearing and soil testing.\u00a0 We will, of course, be heavily guided by advice from the Ministry of Agriculture.\u00a0 Certain preliminary guidelines, however, are established.\u00a0 For the purpose of implementing guidelines we have divided the land into the following categories:<\/p>\n

                                      \n
                                    1. Green areas: To preserve rainfall and soil moisture large sections must be left as green areas in untouched condition.\u00a0 These will be the ridge areas, watershed of year-round streams, and areas of steep contour, and will aggregate roughly twenty-five percent or more of the tract.<\/li>\n
                                    2. Flooded areas: Certain areas will be too subject to flooding to make their use practical under present conditions.\u00a0 These are defined as areas below the sixty foot contour line.\u00a0 Flooded areas may be developed at a later time , when large drainage and water control projects become feasible. We estimate flooded areas to cover about twenty percent of the tract.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                                      -2-<\/p>\n

                                      C-4-a-17d<\/p>\n

                                        \n
                                      1. Water storage: One or more natural basins should be damned up to provide for water storage in case of drought, for fish farms and recreational activities.\u00a0 Specification of locations which will be suitable must await geological investigation.<\/li>\n
                                      2. Livestock: By far the greatest portion (ratio of 4:1) of useable land will be devoted to the raising of cattle on planted and fenced pasture lands.\u00a0Preliminary information gathered at Matthews Ridge indicate ratios of one cow per acre or better are obtainable.\u00a0Plans are to acquire an initial herd of two hundred to two hundred and fifty animals within the first two years, depending on the availability of good cattle for purchase, and to expand the herd as fast as natural reproduction and available pasture will permit.\u00a0 Raising of goats for meat and milk will also begin when a suitable breed can be obtained.\u00a0 Commercial poultry and fish farming will be instituted as storage and transportation facilities become available.<\/li>\n
                                      3. Agriculture: The remainder of the area will be allocated to tree crops (citrus and avocado pear), etc., and to mechanized annuals.\u00a0 The crops to be grown are those specified by the Department of National Development and Agriculture for the area.\u00a0 Also, an attempt will be made to grow garlic and onions, and a variety of green vegetables for the Georgetown market.\u00a0Additionally an effort will be made to mechanize the cultivation of ground provisions.\u00a0 Traditional tropical crops of banana,<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                                        C-4-a-17e<\/p>\n

                                        plantain and cassava will also be planted.\u00a0 Emphasis, however, will be placed on high protein crops such as peanut and legumes.\u00a0 Extensive soil development programs will be implemented.<\/p>\n

                                        V\u00a0Land clearing:<\/u><\/p>\n

                                        There is obviously much debate as to the most effective method of land clearing.\u00a0 Our progress will naturally depend upon our ability to utilize the cleared land at once, the weather, land contours, and other factors.\u00a0 It is our intention to keep twenty to thirty persons occupied with clearing, and two caterpillar deisel tractors equipped with KG blades, as weather permits.\u00a0 A minimum of five hundred acres should be cleared and put into production per year, and we hope to do far more.<\/p>\n

                                        VI\u00a0Equipment Schedule:<\/u><\/p>\n

                                        The following is a partial schedule of the equipment which we expect to have operative within the first twelve months of the project:<\/p>\n

                                        VII\u00a0 Construction and development schedule:<\/u><\/p>\n

                                        The initial twelve months, however, are planned around the following schedule:<\/p>\n

                                        available to work in the area as needed.\u00a0 Full participation in this plan will be open, and encouraged, to any Guyanese person who wishes to participate in the group lifestyle and discipline.\u00a0We hope that the community will develop in such a manner that we can teach, and learn from Guyanese agriculturalists.\u00a0 We fully intend to participate in the activities of the larger Port Kaituma-Matthews Ridge area.<\/p>\n

                                        IX\u00a0Conclusion<\/u><\/p>\n

                                        This plan represents the thinking of the Peoples Temple Team in Guyana, based upon information currently available.\u00a0 We would appreciate suggestions as to how it may be improved or corrected.\u00a0 Peoples Temple is committing its strength, in human resources and finances to this project.\u00a0We come to stay and succeed.\u00a0 We feel that our project is a Guyanese project.\u00a0Our dream is the Guyanese dream, to become effective as cooperative man.<\/p>\n

                                          \n
                                        1. An application for a State Land Lease, together with a map, over a tract of 25,000 acres of State Land situate in the North West District.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
                                            \n
                                          • A photocopy of the Articles of Incorporation of The Peoples Temple of the Disciples of Christ, State of California, United States of America.<\/li>\n
                                          • A photocopy of Resolution No. 73-5 authorizing the establishing of a Branch Church and Agricultural Mission in the Co-operative Republic of Guyana.<\/li>\n
                                          • A photocopy of the Agricultural Development Plan for a Twenty Thousand Acre Site in the Port Kaituma Area by The Peoples Temple Agricultural Mission. and<\/li>\n
                                          • \u00a0A Specimen Lease Form.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                                            Item b. above has been submitted for your perusal and eventual return; all other\u00a0documents are for your records.<\/p>\n

                                              \n
                                            1. This application has been discussed with the appropriate Technical Staff of the Ministry of National Development and Agriculture and with the Hon. Dr. Ptolemy Reid and the Hon. Regional Minister Fitz Carmichael; we have also visited and inspected the area applied for accompanied by the Hon. Carmichael and Mr. G. B. Matthews, the Sworn Land Surveyor presently executing the cadastral _? surveys for the Government of the adjacent areas.<\/li>\n
                                            2. As can be seen from the attached Specimen Lease form we have suggested certain changes and additions; it should be noted that we would be engaging in mixed farming, both crops and cattle; as such we have calculated the rent payable on the ratio of occupancy which each type of farming would be engaged in.As such we have calculated the rent payable on the ratio of occupancy which each type of farming would be engaged in.\u00a0 As such over a total acreage of 25,000 acres it is assumed that nearly 10,000 acres would not be used either because of flood conditions, unsuitable terrain or because of the necessity to provide green areas; the remaining 15,000 acres is set up on a basis of a four (for cattle) to one (for crops) ratio.

                                                            None of the titles issued under the State Land Ordinance, Chapter 175, give any right to extract minerals or mineral ores. Any mineral operation or extraction require separate leases issued under the Mining Ordinance, Chapter 196.<\/p>\n

                                                            The conditions of leases require definite minimum cultivation, livestock holding and\/or other beneficial occupation of the land leased.\u00a0 In the case of woodcutting leases and licences an annual minimum extraction is required for the payment of an annual minimum royalty on the basis of 10 cents per acre.\u00a0 Conditions vary with the purpose for which the land is to be used.<\/p>\n

                                                            Agriculture is concentrated mainly within the alluvial coastal belt which extends from the sea to about 30 miles inland where productivity is highest.\u00a0 This region is low lying and subject to flooding during the heavy rainy seasons.\u00a0 Control of water along the coast necessitates a system of canals, dams, sluices and sea or river defence.\u00a0 In many areas pumps are needed to irrigate as well as to get rid of surplus water.<\/p>\n

                                                            Agriculture, however, is extending further inland and there are large areas of State Land suitable for agriculture, cattle-grazing and other purposes.\u00a0 Both the topography and the soil are different from the alluvial coast.\u00a0 Communication in these inland areas is limited, but the possibilities are encouraging.<\/p>\n
