At the same time there is no disposition on the part i f the promoters to stint in financing the development. Quite the i contrary. Nature has provided such . | n wonderful opportunity that it de- ! | serves the lust that mail can do to utilize nature's bounty and the pro- i moters plan for a rcsor' that will i hi- the pride and glory of both North 1 Carolina and Virginia. England expects to try a plan for making divorces cheaper, so that poor people can afford them.
