ITALY RECOVERING
ITS TOURIST TRADE
Fewer People travelling Than
Before War, But They Spend
More Money.

ROME, March 30.-Italy is already
doing a tourist business of one bill
lion francs a year--a net increase OF
200, ,OOO, 900 francs over her pre-war
tourist income.
This does not necessarily mean
an increase in the number of tour
lists, or a relative increase in Italy's
annual income.
As matter OF fact, the number of
tourists is far beneath that of before
the war. the increase in the revenue
from those that are coming being
merely due to the fact that with the
Increased cost of everything the num-
Der of francs they leave behind them
Is four or five times greater than
before Likewise the diminished value
of the franc or Ira decreases i'm
mensely the actual value OF this in
come to Italy.
Nevertheless, Italy considers the
present status of her tourist business
as most encouraging and 1t Is be-
lieved the income from this source
can be eventually doubled and even
quadruplicated.
Before the war Italy's average in
come of 500, 900 900 lire a year from
tourists was one of the very big and
sure items of her budget. During the
war this disappeared entirely, but 1t
is now returning in such manner
that Italy can again count on IL as
one Of the big. important items OF
her national wealth and income.
For the moment the greatest OBJ
stacle to increasing the tourist trav-
ell in Italy is that of hotels. While
Italy has the same number of hotels
she had before the war and few
more, unfortunately, like all of the
belligerent countries. she has develop

all of the leading hotels are now

Despite the most desperate efforts

thorities either to induce or force this
native population to return to it's
original homes, itinsists on holding
out in the best hotels, and the tour
ist industry suffers greatly thereby
