73 tá điền trở thành tiểu điền chủ (73 Tenant Farmers Become Small Landowners)

A portrait sheet under a dark headline reports that Kien Hoa province issued title certificates to 73 tenant farmers of Ham Long district for 111 hectares, at a ceremony on 2 April 1966. Photographs show the province chief and a deputy province chief handing certificates to farmers, and a farmer representative speaking. A closing banner reads 'The whole people are determined to build a new society.' The tell is the pairing of a concrete, countable transfer with a broad slogan, with no figure given for tenants not yet reached.
