still, after such substantial recoveries as

of profits on long stock during strong

ested in the industry are invited TO be
present. This ia the first OF a series Of
such meetings II ts proposed TO hold

people. as well as investors all over the
country, TO the opportunities presented
by the vast undevcloped natural re-
sources OF the state.

Chief in bringing about more. favor

the rather rapid retreat OF an aggressive

Secondary TO this are the signs that
