Berlin, June 23.—As a center of at traction for visitors from outside, Berlin Is on the wane, said Chairman Landau, of the Citys Foreign travel bureau, which held Its annual meet Ing here recently. Landau stated that although in the year under review 2.389,000 strangers visited the capital they were on the whole not the class of visitors that were desired. Berlin, he added, had become hated in the provinces and no traveller came to Berlin for pleas ure. Moreover there was an alarm ing exodus of industrial undertakings from Berlin. The authorities, he said, must wake up and offer fairs and such like as an inducement for the desirable class of visitors to come to Berlin.
