Twelve acres remain unsold, but the agency is negotiating on eight of them. The history of the residential portion of the project, on the other hand, has, been one -of delays and disappointment.

He told the opening session of a governor's fact-finding conference on welfare fraud that the state social welfare board would' hold hearings throughout the state in an effort to ferret out chiselers.
