Tourist Revenue Is
One Aim Of Mountain
Resource Study
ATHENS—Dr. Hugh B. Masters
who will direct a 125-day study of
tourism in the north Georgia moun¬
tains, Thursday outlined some
things he hopes to learn in the sur¬
vey.
Economically, the study will de¬
termine the possible amount of
money which can be made through
tourism. Program-wise the study
will explore what the area has to
offer the tourist.
“When a drought wipes out a
farmer’s crop, everybody hears a
bout it”, said Masters. “But when
the operator of a motel or a ham¬
burger stand goes broke, nobody
cares. ♦>
Mainly, the survey will explore
the possibility of building a multi¬
experiment station in the mount¬
ains during the next few months.
The study will be undertaken by
the University of Georgia’s Center
for Continuing Education of which
Dr. Masters is director. A $22,500
grant from the Area Re-develop¬
ment Administration will finance
the study to be made in 12 count
ies.
The proposed center would train
people to capitalize on the Georgia
mountains as tourist attractions.
Masters said the region is best suit¬
ed for tourist attractions.
The proposed center, Masters
said, would serve the following cat¬
egories:
1. The consumer who doesn’t
know how to get the most from
his leisure time.
2. The producer, the motel or res¬
taurant owner who could improve
the kind of service he offeres.
3. Professional recreation leaders,
including those from city, state and
national parks.
4. Private citizens who own pri¬
vate land which could be develop¬
ed for recreation. These include
those who own ponds, hunting pre¬
serves, picnic sites, etc.
Masters said a recent report of
the Outdoor Recreation Resources
Review Commission clearly indicat¬
es that all the public facilities to
gethe won’t be enough to provide
recreational space for Americans
in the years ahead.
He said conversion of some pri¬
vate land to recreational projects
will help solve some of the prob¬
lems of unemployment in mountain
regions.
Masters said the study would not
be an effort to cause the region to
become overrun with tourists. He
said efforts would be made to pre¬
serve the area so that it would not
become eroded, its streams pollut¬
ed and its beauty destroyed.
“If the new recreational center
does prove feasible, it will provide
a new industry for the northeast
Georgia area that will produce new
a nd continuing jobs and offer new
outdoor living pleasure for many,
Masters said.
The Oracle Speaks
For the present the sun shines,
Hie air is warm and friendly and
we bask in the delight and color
of an inimitable Indian Summer.
But we had better enjoy it while
it lasts, for the frost is not too
distant
At least not according to the ora¬
cle of the Pennsylvania Dutch
country, John Baer’s Agricultural
Almanac,
The prophet’s 138th edition pre¬
dicts a cold, wet winter for most
of the country through the next five
months.
It’s time for mom to check the
raincoats and overshoes and for
dad to check the anti-freeze. It’s
also about time to take down the
screens and to do the other million
and one things that must be done
each fall.
But while the sunshine lasts and
the breezes are balmy we can hope
that the oracle is wrong.—Editorial,
Atlanta Journal.

WASHINGTON (AP)— Georgia is
