The promotion will feature the many visitor attractions in ten Rocky Mountain, Southwestern and certain Plains States as "Scenicland U. S. A." The states are Utah, Idaho, Colorado, Montana, Wyoming, Arizona, Ari-zona, South Dakota, New Mexico, Texas and Nebraska. The campaign, as described by Mr. W. L. Fields, Regional Sales Manager, at Salt Lake City, will be directed not only to the residents of these states, but also to states outside this area, from which we derive a substantial portion of our travel business. As the key part of the campaign, the Company will distribute free through its many Standard Stations Sta-tions and Independent Chevron Dealers, comprehensive tour guides. The Booklets which are printed in color, describe pictorially and in detail de-tail the West's and Southwest's Na tional Parks, National Monuments and the hundreds of other unique treasures and attractions to be found in "Scenicland, U. S. A.". Also the Booklets outline circle tours and side trips to be found short distances off major highways and which may be reached only by car. Booklets were ready for distribution distribu-tion mid-June. Mr. Fields said the purpose of the campaign is threefold: 1. To help encourage the citizens living in these states to know and enjoy their own beautiful area. 2. To bring in more visitors and 3. To keep visitors in the area longer. "If we can just keep people in the area one day longer by giving them more to see, do and enjoy, we can add millions of dollars to the economy of these states," Mr. Fields said. Mr. Fields also stated California Oil Company's faith in the future development of the vacation trade in this area is such that the newly-developed newly-developed "Scenicland, U. S. A." campaign will be a continuing project pro-ject for "at least several years."
