Everyone in the state shares in the benefits derived trom the tourist dollar as shown in the accompanying chart prepared from figures established by the Babson Institute. During 1947 it was estimated that more than two million tourists visited Utah and left behina them $60,000,000. This is big business. It is fourth in impor-tance to the State of Utah. Only agriculture, mining and manufacturing (in the order named) contribute more to the welfare of our state. It is estimated that with a prolonged stay of only one short day the number of tour ists now visiting Utah will raise this amount up to ninety millior dollars. The State Department of Publicity and Industrial De velopment is proceeding on the theory that the best immediate job that can be done is to pro long the stay of the people whc are already visiting Utah. Every section of Utah has attractions with sufficient color interesting historical background and recreational facilities to interest anyone from anywhere. Local people know and appreciate these spenic and recreational facilities available in their own area. The job is to sell what we have to offer to the tourists passing1 through the state. To reach these peoole the Department of Publicity has established and cooperated with all other interested agencies in setting up Bureaus of Information manned by trained personnel at ports of entry, hotels, department stores, motor courts, etc., to inform the traveling public on what to see and where to go. These agencies are supplied with literature that point out the attractions of the locality and of the state and answer many of the questions asked by the average tourist. During 1947 the Department distributed 465,000 pieces of literature, each with a selling message on Utah. A film library has been established which now contains eight different films that are receiving wide circulation throughout the United States. As many as two hundred prints of one of these films are now being circulated through sellforty different outlets, allattracting Utah and its scenic ions. 12,000 pictures on Utah have been sent to 125 leading newspapers and magazines. Radio, - travel shows and every known means are being used to invite people to Utah and to tell them what to see and where to go after they reach our state. 1 LOCALS BOARD OF BIG GAME CONTROL MEET IN DUCHESNE JULY At the first meeting of the Board of Bigh Game Control, held in Duchesne, July 6, ninety-si- x sportsmen and stockmen ere in attendance.
