TOURIST 'rn:i nE NOW SECOND INDUSTRY Montreal, April 12th, (Special to The News-Record)—The second most important industry in Canada is the tourist trade, says Theodore Mor- gan, president of the Montreal Tour - hit and Convention Bureau, and he urges that everything possible inay be done to entice the tourist across the hordes. in order to enlarge Can- ada's revenue and compensate some- what for the adverse trade balance with the United States. It was Mr. Morgan's opinion that the tourist trade was more impor- tant than the exploitation of miner- als. and he hoped that before long the figures of 5,000,000 tourists would be goratiy enlarged. In speak- ing of the attractions of Canada, as compared. with other lands, Mr. Mor- gan said that in the Rocky Moun- tains alone we have 20 Switzerlands in one. Then he deserieed the beau- ties of Muskoka, Lake of the Woods, -the Leurentians and the Niaritiines and declared that the uninhabited' res glens of Canada will eventually not Only attract' Americans to come to Canada for their vacations but also to build their summer 'hones here, I d CTS OF INTEREST AROUT CANADA'S NEW (IOVERNOR- GENERAL Ottawa, April i3,.
