adding that real estate men cannot

Approaches Cited.
The speaker said realtors should be
concerned not only with the inner de-
velopment of a city, but with the APP
proaches to il. In this connection, he
emphasized that the approaches to
Washington are not nearly as pretty
as they should be.

of a bond issue to raise money for the

declaring that there could be no bet

raise $10,000,000 by such method.
