And now-with noise reduced to the

Tourist Travel North
Rapidly Increasing

Motor travel into the northern
part of Arizona is increasing stead
lily, Judging by the business handl-
ed by the touring bureau of the
Automobile club of Arizona.
The club receives letter inquiries
every day from residents of south
ern California who desire routing,
hotel and scenic information for use
in visiting Grand Canyon, Painted
Desert, the Hopi country, Petrified
Forest, San Francisco Peaks and
the many other points of scenic in
terest scattered SO lavishly over the
great highland plateau of northern
Arizona and southern Utah.
; Manager Treadwell maintains
that this diffusion of motor tourists
into the farthest corners of the
state is a great help to all lines
of business within the state.
That every foreign car entering
Arizona brings it's share of busi-
ness that is finally diverted into
channels that are hard to connect
with ordinary conception of motor
tourist business.
Money spent by the motor tour
ist with the garage, or hotel man
may soon be in hands of the orange
grower in the Salt River valley, or
some poultry man or hay grower
may receive it for his produce.
Manager Treadwell says if this fact
was better understood there would
be no question of the automobile
receiving the unqualified support of
every thinking citizen of Arizona.
