STATE TOURISTS
 HANDLED NICELY
Connecticut Equipped Bet. ter Today to Care for
 Out.Of.TOwners

Hartford, July 8-With the an- nual invasion of summer visitors well under way and promising tc set new records, Willard B. Rogers chairman of the State Publicity Commission and sponsor of the idea of establishing tourist inforna. ton booths at strategic points throughout the state, said today that Connecticut is better equipped to handle the influx of tourists thar at any time in history.
 with over 100 IVA youths on the job in tourist information booths in seven cities, Rogers said And with two more cities, Fair field and Manchester, putting booths in operation within a few days, we have taken forward step in encouraging out of state visitors to make the most of their stay in Connecticut.
 "The boys and girls working at these roadside booths have been trained by the IVA and are equip ped to provide prompt, efficient service as well as information on every phase of the states historical industrial and recreational features They have been drilled in highway routes, road conditions and high way safety in order to help tourists enjoy their visit,"
 The cities which have established tourist information booths at heav- ily-travelled suburban points in- clude: Hartford, New Haven, Dan- bury, Greenwich, Fairfield, Milford Torrington, Manchester and Willi- mantle.
 Bridgeport, too, has established tourist information booths but is operating them under the Police Department rather than the IVA. This brings the total to ten cities.

c. Is an International Protest ant church feasible?

ant church feasible!
 A: According to Dr. Henry Smith Leiper. the development of an Internal ational Protestant church Is comparable to the spinning of the cables for a huge suspension bridge. Taken separately the strands are all but invisible. Alone they would not support a very great load. But if through patient and discerning work we can bring them into lines, relate them to each other. and organize their in- dividual weakness into collective strength. we shall have produced a bridge which shall be a highway for our 0od as lie moves amonf the nations of mankind"
