la the possibility of condemnation pro
cccdinsS against The property of The
California Development Company in

standing that before the matter was
actually taken into The courts the ili-

This implies that there is To be
nothing preciplalc in the action Of the
board. though 4 progressive policy Is
to be followed.

action.
