SAYS VERMONT LACKS HOTELS
Reason Why State Has No Place IL
Boston and Maine Advertising.

Walter II. Crockett of the Vermont
publicity bureau recently wrote the adj
vertising department of the Boston and
Maine railroad company calling the at
tention of the official in charge to the
absence Of Vermont in the summer
tourist advertising issued by the cor
poration.
The company's reply was in effect
that it had not interested itself in in
ducing tourists to visit Vermont for the
reason that there was no place to put
them il they should come to the state.
Mr.. Crockett refutes the assertion of
the railroad man that Vermont has no
accommodations for summer tourists.
The correspondence, which is pub
lished below, reveals an attitude to-
ward Vermont which probably but few
people knew existed. That there has
been some justification in the past for
the railroad mans position is not
denied but there has been marked
Improvement in conditions in recent
years. The correspondence follows:

which you advertise, Maine, New

seems to me that your statement that
Vermont has no place to put" summer
visitors is based on rather superficial
observation or incorrect information.
In few days this department will
issue a revised edition of pamphlet
entitled where to Stop When in Yer
mont containing a list of hotels and
boarding houses, and shall be glad to
send you a copy Of the same. A per
usal of that publication will show you
that Vermont is able to accommodate
several thousand visitors. Some OF
the hotels recently have built, or are
now building, additions, and the inter
est in the development of the summer
tourist business in Vermont never was
so great as il is this year.

ton Of the beauty Of Vermont scenery,

give Vermont the aid and encourage
ment that it has given Maine, New

there will be little difficulty In finding
suitable accommodations for tourists.

sible to make this State the equal Of

tent of its tourist business May We

The chief reason why we feature
