In which you gti out to look for

a suitable site. \Ve know front ex-

that an industry tucks with favor
upon a certain piece of land -,will
shoot its value out of 'sight.

voters showed a preference for

'Truman, and there is general
speculation its to what this voting
portends, Lv Eisenhower to be ° the
