TRAVEL TIPS
> By CHARLES c. NORTH

Because Miami is so ideally To-
Gated as a take off city for va
cations and cruises to South
America and the island resorts of
the Caribbean area, it is no great
wonder why its airport and boat
lines are some of the busiest in
the country.
Negro tourists are travelling in
ever increasing numbers to
South America, Haiti, Jamaica,
Havana and Nassau and they are
coming to Miami for their depar-
lures for these fabulous countries.
Travellers to these resorts should
be happy to know that red tape
. to these countries has been cut
to a minimum.
For example no passport or visa
is necessary for travel to these
resorts in the Caribbean and
American citizens only require
ment is a round trip ticket. In
some of the islands vaccination
certificates are required.
Each year North's Travel Bu-
reau, located in Miami at 1104
NV 3rd ave-, sends representa-
tiveS into most of these island re-
sorts to check on policy, prices
and privileges and to be in a po-
sition to give the best and latest
information available.
In October Mrs. Edythe Cape,
recent addition to the bureaus
personnel, serving as a travel
consultant, will go on d tour that
will include, Havana, Jamaica,
Nassau, San Juan, Puerto Rico
and Port Au Prince, Haiti, for the
express purpose of being able to
compile the very latest informa-
ton on what to do, how to do it,
and where; while travelling.
In travel tips we hope to inform
the public on what's going on in
the world of travel, give tips on
how to tip, what's best to travel
in and with, and what to expect
and where to expect it. So take
a tip and look for Travel Tips"
each week.
Following is a list of some of
those travelling through NIB dur
ing the past week:
Mrs. Thurthez Powell, daughter
of Enoch Powell, left for Nassau,
August 2. This is Miss Poweu's
