This advertisement is one of a series of facts about the laicful sale of Malt Beverages Resort travelers favor w Legal Control n, areas Our Great Smoky National Park is a good example. & ?*.; m* - . Geographically, this park is almost equally divided ? half in North Carolina, half in Tennessee. Jr ? I However, of the 4% million dollars spent by park visitors for lodgings in 1956, Tennessee establishments got nearly 3 million, or almost twice the amount spent in North Carolina. Gatlinburg is the center of accommodations and trade on the Tennessee side of the park. It tried prohibition for a short time, but soon returned to the "legal sale" system for beer and ale. There is ample evidence that park visitors prefer the relaxed hospitality of the Tennessee side to the harsh prohibition areas of the North Carolina side of the park. Gatlinburg innkeepers, motel owners and hotel operators took in nearly a million dollars more from their tourist trade than all of the North Carolina towns put together within a radius of 40 miles of the park boundaries. "'"W Why not face the facts? ? HV? tv * ? ? ' ? 1 . 4 >r*Hf Resort travelers favor "Legal Control" areas. Most of them come from areas i where prohibition has been out of favor for many years. They do not subscribe to the bootleg system which abounds in these North Carolina counties. They believe they are entitled to their own freedom of choice as guaranteed by the Constitution. Even those who do not prefer beer and ale appreciate the hos pitality and enlightened viewpoint of the communities that have learned that "legal control" of the sale of beer and ale works in the best interests of all concerned. North Carolina has a tremendous stake in resort travel. Our natural attractions surpass most other states. However, condi tions with regard to prohibition in certain resort areas are not in keeping with our progress or our opportunities for the future. ? . ? i' . ? 'Haitfi TKalt tZeveiayz Vx&titute P O. Box 2473 RALEIGH. NORTH CAROLINA ( TO PROMOTE INDUSTRY ? Presses Are Turning Out 'Operation Bootstrap' Books Heinz Rollman, president of the Western North Carolina Industrial Development Corporation, has an nounced that the printing presses have started to turn and that the printing of 100.000 copies of the Income From Poultry Hat Possibilities Income possibilities are grow ing in favor of poultry. That's the opinion of Dr. Clayton P. Libeau. poultry specialist for the N. C. Agricultural Extension Serv ice. However, Df Libeau expects lower prices of red meats to com pete more vigorously with broilers during the next several years. "It is a well established fact." Dr. Libeau said, "that people are eating more broilers each year, and that there are more than a million new families being form ed in the United States each year." There is an unsettled and un balanced condition created by high prices of hogs, cattle and lambs in comparison to feed costs, the poultry specialist continued. Feed is being produced faster than it is being used. Dr. Libeau then added that marked declines in livestock prices can be expected over the next three or four years. "And since the high price of red meats have helped sell broilers in the past, we can expect the red meats to compete more vigorously with poultry during the next several years," he said. Dr. Libeau cited the high level of efficiency that has been ob taned in converting feed into broilers and eggs as a factor In favor of increased poultry income. He also said that while larger forms of livestock are limited to pasture and range carrying capac ity, poultry has no such restric tions.
