The Itchy foot, one of the most pronounced
of American characteristics.
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.
