EEDED AWORK FORCE
IT IS SIGNIFICANT that Commissioner of Commerce
Kimelman thought it necessary to mention the need for a pub
lie relations and educational program right here at home,
That speaks of realism at its very base, for while we are max
ing money from tourisn, and while there are plans in the
works, nothing seems more important than to have the entire
population alerted, and fully prepared for the exactng de-
mands Of tourism.
TO MANY, MANY people tourism is an external matter,
a front. It concerns the tourists, and perhaps the taxi business,
Butt is much more than that. One Of the complaints heard
frequently is the poor service which we give tourists. Tomain-
tain a tourist business which vii. insure the kind of returns we
seek, the entire range of tourist activity must be adequately
provided for. The tourist wants a clean, bright, airy, comfort
able room. He wants hot and cold running water, available to
him at all times. He wants electric power for Lighting and
equipment. These are the physical aspects.
ANY TOURIST, especially from the United States seeks.
as a matter Of course, certain accommodations, and high on
this list is seruice. And what is this service? 1t is a ready res
ponse to the cal. When the tourist presses for a bell boy, OF
for maid service he needs it. When he returns to his room at
night a thermos pitcher Of ice water may make all the differ
ence, to say nothing of a few fruit.
TOURIST WHO has to be content with limited water
supply, spotty electric power, uncertain plumbing, and other
poor services will not return. More, he will not recommend
us to anyone.
BUT ATTITUDE is also very important No tourist bust
ness can possibly succeed unless there is a highly competent
efficient, pleasant and agreeable work force. To those who
may not understand what service is, a reminder only that
this type of work is providing hundreds of thousands Of men
with profitable employment throughout the United States,
and the world. Their jobs are important. Unemployment need
not be a problem here if those who decide to work ever realize
that there is an excellent opportunity, with all the security in
the world if they but knew and understood that work with the
tourist business can provide a good living, coupled with Sc,
crity.

signed to provide the kind of help which touism needs would

be the answer. The Department Of Commerce might sit with
the Department Of Education to work out such a program.
Whatever the method, it is clear that tourism cannot make
profits for US unless we have the personnel, trained, efficient
and willing to work, not only for themselves, but their home
as well.

the Church the paying Of
tithes, or one-tenth Of ones
salary and harvests.
Il am particularly interested
in knowing if the Catholic
Church in Peru follows this
commandment as I under
stand most Latin countries do.
Have I been misinformed2"
AnSwer-The fifth Com
mandment of the Catholic
Church observed by all Ro-
man Catholics in the United
States and Great Britain
merely states that it is the
duty of the faithful Ito con-
tribute to the support of the

America.

he suggested that whenever I
might be tempted to say some
thing sarcastic about this re-
ligion I ought to turn it into
something good.
Having done so now for
some time I feel so much
cleaner in the sight of God. 1t
has given me a new happiness
that must be God-given. Now
there is some one in our place
Of business who makes re-
marks like I used to. Since
we have to keep up a close
working relationship, should I
speak up or not? Several of
us would appreciate your ad-
vice"
AnSwer-Your minister gave
you sound advice and you al
ready have benefited from it's
blessings. Ny suggestion is
that your approach to the
other person in your place of
business who is making the
same mistake will have to be
somewhat different from the
approach which your minister
made to you. Your minister
obviously has your confidence
and your high regard.
The best approach in dealing
with the offender in your busi-
ness is merely to respond by
stating your own witness to
your belief in the faith Of which
you are a part and yet your
spirit Of brotherhood with re-
gard to other expressions of re-
hgion.
You have already learned
that it is better to be a positive
witness for a faith than to be
an antagonist Of another one.
This is the way Of brotherhood
and understanding.
On the other hand, you do
have a duty to promote the
spirit Of brotherhood by prayer
and witness in saying the right
word to the intolerant friend.
