TALK ON TOURISM DELIVERED BY
TOM CUNNINGATC OF c MEETING
CONTINUED from yesterday

CONTINUED from yesterday
If the population remains
stagnant, or if it decreases,
what is the need for a new
store, orneW service estab-
lishment? If the population
increases it becomes obvious
that there will be a need. AS
we get more people in a COM
munity we have to have more
stores, service establishments,
professional people to take
care of them. AS we get more
people in a community there
becomes a need for employ
ment for them. When this
need is. recognized, by the
simple fact that there is a
labor market in the commu-
nifty, then creative people,
and good business men start
new ventures, as these ven
lures prosper additional peo-
pie come, and additional ven
lures are started or existing
people we get industrial de-
velopment.
How does the travel picture
fit? Simple. Travel brings peo-
pie to an area. A certain per-
centage of these people decide
to return to live in the area,
When they move in they move
in with new ideas, a certain
amount of capital, and they
are in themselves increased
population. More tourist come
to visit, more stay to live
They have friends whom they

started-people continued to
come-industry continued to
~grow-until Los Angeles be-
came the second largest city
in the United States, and it
did it in very few years. Oh
yes, and now they have a har-
bort was man built.
In about 1916 the All Year
Club Of Southern California
ran an intensive survey to
learn as much as it could
about the tourist and his in
fluence on Southern Califor-
MIA. They learned one impor-
tant, yet unbelievable, yet
proven fact. 1t was this: Zone
out of ten of all the tourists
in the previous ten years who
had visited Southern Califor-
MIA had returned to live or in
vest in Southern California"
What if we, in the Virgin Is
lands were successful in get
ting one out of a hundred, or
one out of a thousand to re-
turn to live or invest in the
Virgin Islands-well, in a very
few years we wouldn't have
room for the population-nor
the industry it would develop.
Different from Los Angeles,
we don't have cities like San
Diego, Pasadena, Hollywood,
and miles and miles o land for
the population to overflow
onto. But does this prove that
tourism is valuable to the
growth of the entire economy?
How can you argue otherwise
and how can anyone in the
community fail to see his obi
cation to help attract tourists
to st. Croix and the Virgin
Islands.
So, with that, we come to
the question of what Can
We Do?"
OF course, the answer to
that is a simple-"plenty!"
But plenty of what? So let's
look the problem over-let's
, 1957-05-08

u..--.E
Before we discuss the local
p~roblem-let's' look at some
areas and states in the United
States to get an example of
how varied the approach can
be and still be successful.
Since we have already
talked about California why
not discuss them first. 1t will
probably surprise you to know
that the State Of California, as
a state, does not have a Tour
list Promotion Department.
The State of California, as a
State, spends no money. There
are many regional travel pro-
motion organizations. The All
Year Club of Southern Cali
fornia, which is interested
principally in the Greater Los
Angeles Area; the San Diego
Convention and Tourist Bu-
reau, a part of the Chamber of
Commerce, for the San Diego
Area; the Mission Trails Asso-
citation, which includes the en-
tire area from San Diego to
San Francisco; California In
corporated, for the San Fran
cisco Area; Redwood Empire
Association, for San Francisco
and north, actually overlap
ping into Southern Oregon;
the Shasta-C Cascade Wonder
land Association, for northern
California and Southern Ore
gon; The California-Nevada
Association, Eastern Califor-
MIA and part of Nevada, and a
few others.
Each Of these organizations
has several main functions in
common. First, they work to
bring tourists to California.
Second, they work to bring
them to their area when they
get to California. Third, they
work closely with each other
Association to eliminate con-
flicts in dates for expositions,
community shows, fiestas, re-
gattas, rodeos, etc, so that

influence and whom they
bring along or who follow.
The population Increases
the industry increases-the
wealth increases-and t h e
natural resources that brought
these people in the first place
remain intact to attract more
people.
In this very connection let's
point out one of the most re-
markable examples in the
world, Of tourism building a
community. Many, and yet
not too many, years ago Los
Angeles was a little town in
southern California. 1t had
nothing but good weather. It
didn't even have a harbor. A
group of men in Los Angeles
decided to sell that weather
so they formed the All Year
Club of Southern California,
and they started to sell Los
Angeles and southern Califor-
mia, People started to visit
there; many of them liked
what they saw so they moved
i~n-promotion continued and
|visntors continued to come
suddenly there were lots of
|people-and because there
were lots of people there was
the demand-demand for ser
vices and s~upplies-demand
flor jobs for many who came
demand for industrial develop
'ment. Industrial development

Under Construction
At Aspen Hill Site

Vitro Laboratories announced
today the signing of a contract
for addition of a 10000 square
foot wing to its 100000 lab
oratory under construction on a
35-acre tract on Georgia avenue

diately. Completion Of both main
building and wing is scheduled
for next year
Vitro officials state that growth
in personnel and business vol
ume since 1855, when their new
laboratory was planned for a
staff of $50, has led them to en-
large their plant before its COM
pletion. The original building
plans provided for such additions.
Vitro's staff in Silver Spring
now numbers 425. with a business
volume for this year of approx
mately $4,000,000. The Silver
Spring operation started in 1913
with a staff of 80 and annual vol
ume of 100000.
