millions Of dollars are flowing
by; your job is to stop tn e
flow and obtain some of the
vast sums spent daily by travel

Route Is Vital
Nelson said that his organiza-
ton considers Piedmont Vir-
ginia to be the region extending
through central Virginia from
the Maryland line to Kerr
Dam. Route Is traffic flows
through the heart Of that region,
he said

of promoting Piedmont Virginia,

would in one package and
with an appropriate travel fold

places as Appomattox, Month
