The Casablanca will tower eight' or ten stories, the first tall hostelry; in town. Both hotels will be build on the ""Strip"", a stretch of county wasteland on the highway outside the town. This desert land, useless for anything but g&i$iing, already has been bought up for 40 miles out of Las Vegas, all.the way to the California line. The asking price is from $1,000 to $1,250 a front foot. Two muUon-dollarJgppping centers of smart stoyeiSpli be sand- witched among thefgj^awling hotels and 24-hour-a-day wedding chapels.
