Alaska Prepares for
Biggest Tourist Season
The biggest Alaska tourist sea
son ever, despite heightened de
fense activity, is looked for in
1951 by Territorial officials. As
Alaska’s Governor Ernest Gruen
ing puts it: “Alaska is now pre

or west, and in either case is pre
pared to give the appropriate
warm welcome in our own way.”
The Governor’s statement was
made at a banquet of the Alaska
Visitors Association at which the
newly organized tourist promo
tion group outlined plans for a
banner travel year.
At the session, which was held
at Juneau with all members of
the Territorial Legislature in at
tendance, Larry Moore, vice pres
ident of the Association, likened
Alaska to “a Betty Grable in
overalls.” He explained how the
new organization plans to tell the
world about the Territory’s tour
I ist atttractions. R. E. Ellis, presi
dent of the association, declared
Alaska’s transportation, hotel and
resort operators prepared for the
biggest flood of visitors in the
Territory’s history.
