Travel figures released bv the Oregon State Highway Department showed that, of the 6.5-17.000 visitors who traveled through the state last vear. more than 44 percent, or 2.863.000 were from Califor nia, it was announced today my Forrest Cooper, state high way engineer. Latest figures show Oregon's population ns I.999.7S0. This large Influx of visitors from the south was one reason why the tourist Industry In Oregon climbed to a record high of $252,700,000 In spite of crip pling strikes In bus and air line service during the height of the season, and Intensified competition from other areas. The State of Washington con tributed almost 20 percent of the visitor population, or 1.281, 000 persons, to further swell the total. The visitors spent more than $22 million more than they did In 1965 for food, lodging, recre ation, car expenses, nnd other Items incidental to travel, the survey conducted bv the High way Department showed. The survey of out-of-state motorists was taken at 17 stations along the state's borders. In addition, estimates were made concern ing visitors traveling by train, plane, or bus, and persons on business trips who used travel facilities. The automobile survey show ed the estimated number of mo toring visitors up to 6.5 mil lion from 5.8 million for the previous year, with their total expenditures up more than $3.2 million. Visitors arriving by mass transporta t lo n means spent almost a million dollars less than the previous year. This was believed caused by the major strikes In the bus and airline services.
