I la going to hand business a $6,000,000,000 boost this summer.' That's an estimate of what the people of the United States will spend on travel and things connected with It In 1940. That Is a tremendous business, the third largest, In fact, in the country. This year, for the first time In many years, practically all of It will be spent In the western hemisphere, and most of It In the United States and its possessions. Europe is largo-, ly closed thlB year to the traveler, and the qaarter of a billion dollars which used to be spent there on a single summer's travel wil'l tinkle In western cash registers this season. The piew York and San Francisco fialris will continue to draw their millions. The national parks and favorite domestic summer resorts will again be strong magnets. But more than ever before, this year will be Pan American year for I the wayfarer. Cruises through South j American waters, and by air to the southlands ares>already being booked flulL Many thousands will become acquainted with American territories and possessions for the first time ? Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto .Rico, the -Virgin Islands. Thousands will seize the opportunity to drive across the boi> J ders on our next-door neighbors, Canada and Mexico. The Rotarlans and Lions conventions form an advance guard of a huge tourist invasion of Cuba, and Central and South America 1 are certain to see streams of tourists 1 such as have never flowed southward I before. It Is an unpararfelod opportunity,! with Europe closed, for the Americas ' to get acquainted with each other, i And it Is also a fine chance to solve in some little measure the problem of lnter-Amerlcan trade. j The southern countries, and Can-1 ada, all want to buy more American goods. They are handicapped because we buy so little of theirs, and hence -eendr-them ~HO"few American dollars with which they can buy our exports. But travel 1b one thing which the oth-1 er American countries have for sale which we can buy more liberally.
