Description

Excerpt from U. S. Travel<br/><br/>IT IS generally believed that domestic travel, and the business created by it, is the third largest factor in our national economy. However, because of inadequate data, it is difficult to prove this popular theory. The following collection of information about domestic travel in 1948 re?ects this situation. It is an informal presentation. It consists of raw material rather than an ysis or projection. In spite of its nonconclusive character, it is felt to have interest for two reasons. First, it represents the only Nation-wide compilation of its type on the subject. Second, it reveals the need for arriving at a standard plan for gathering, compiling, and evaluating the volume and value of domestic travel. In addition to presenting the available information received through the cooperation of State, regional, and private travel organizations, this digest includes a summary of a plan for gathering Nation-wide travel statistics which was submitted to the Bureau of the Census by the United States Travel Division. Although the Bureau of the Census did not find it possible to incorporate this suggestion in the. 1950 census, it may serve as a starting point for the creation of a basic pattern for the collection of domestic travel statistics in the future. Material included in the plan is based on suggestions and recommendations originally presented by Don Thomas, managing director of the all-year Club Of Southern California, Ltd.
