that in a free enterprise system, the very basic requirement that

Interpretations to apply to those who have been here in the past
when we're aSking for a full and complete standard of all those
who develop comparable propertIes now". Mr Jessner noted a
correction for the mInutes of December 4. 1985, Page 4. second
