PORTLAND—The annual influx of summer tourists

year, a survey of the latest seasonal trends by tho Interna

ists spent $107,000,000 in the
state.
Hotel and food prices are
large’ly unchanged in Oregon
this year, Frank A. Ludwig,

visitors will find some lower
prices for quality liquors in the
state, according to I. I.ee Krost,

Hotels may lower prices if ac

year tourists will tend to spend
more carefully, he said, but nt
