Favorable Balance IN An
qIo-Amerilan Tourist
Trade Is Reported

LONDON, Aug. l.-For the first
time in history the United States
this year may show favorable
balance in the Anglo American
tourist trade.
Estimates of London travel agents
are that within the past twelve
months the number Of English
visiting the United States has in
creased by 500 percent while there
has been a SO percent decline in
the number of travellers coming
from America to Great Britain.
Why U. s. Decline
War fears are held responsible
for the steady decline in the tour
ist volume from the United States.
The Worlds fairs, an unwilling
ness to visit former vacation spots
on the continent - for patriotic
reasons if no other, and growing
interest in the United States as a
possible friend in hour of need
are declared responsible for the
greatly increased number of steam
er bookings westward.
The recent visit of King George
and queen Elizabeth is an added
factor in stimulating the number
of British visitors to the United
States. Special rate tours follow
ing the Royal Route" are being
advertised.
Tourists Different
