When the press was operated for the benefit of visitors
last night copies of the Observer-Star, our weekly publica

a weekly edition thought that the daily's name had been
changed. It hasn't; it is still La Grande Evening Observer.

TOURIST DOLLARS
Had advocates of good roads
to his folly," the nation's program of highway construction
probably would have stopped right where "the fool" said,
"Why build roads for tourists, they only come and go."
That is just what tourists do. They come and go, on good
roads. But when they come, they bring money. And when
they go, they leave money behind. The great American
vacation has created a new industry, and that industry flour
ishes nwst where roads are best.
A sun'cy made two years ago showed nearly 26,000 hotels
in the United States, with more than 1,500,000 rooms, more
than 1,000,000 employes and a property valuation of more
than $0,000,000,000. Their receipts that year were ?1,315,
000,000. Were that survey duplicated next fall it would find ,
all these figures greatly augmented.
Last year the roadside stands garnered something more
than ?500,000,000. Add to the others the earnings of filling
stations, garages, guides, seashore and mountain resorts,
tourist homes and amusement and commercialized scenic
places visited by tourists and some idea of the extent of the ;
domestic tourist industry can be had.
While American tourists are spending $000,000,000 abroad,
$300,000,000 in Canada and $10,000,000 in Mexico this year,
45,000,000 Americans will be touring the homeland and
spending more than $3,500,000,000 en route.

VEGETARIANISM
Even at this late date, one cannot
long dwell upon the subject of diet
without running Into the vegetar
ianism controversy.
Although It is profitless to debate
the relative merits of meat-eating
and meat-abstinence, because there
is no evidence for a decision, it is
not entirely profitless to review the
matter.
Thero are in the main, three groups
of vegetarians:
Those who subsist mainly on fruits
and nuts, and who asgue for the
merits of their diet on the basis of
its "naturalness."
Then thero are those who are
vegetarians because they abhor the
Idea of killing animals for food.
