PROCLAMATION
Whereas, promotion of better understanding
among citizens of all fifty
states and foreign countries is a fundamental purpose
of the tourist industry; and Whereas, thi
s is a time when the entire
Nation is engaged in a major program to promote tourism,
an industry wh ich does little
to destroy envi ronm ent
al quality and means additional revenue to aid our economy
as well as more jobs for our citizens; and Whereas, development of
travel trade w ithin The First State
will afford our c itizens
t h e opportunit y
to more thoroughly familiarize themselves with all of
our attractions thereby enabling them
to be most helpful to any vi
sito rs who may need assistance; and Whereas,
The Society of American Travel Writers has de
signed a program to add to the enjoyment of traveling
w ithin the United States, a
project which was originated as a
public service in support of
city, state, and national travel
programs; Now, therefore, I ,
Russell W. Peterson, Governor of
the Stat e of Delaware, do
add my full support to this worthy program and hereby proclaim the week
of June 14-20, 1970 as
WELCOME A VISITOR WEEK
in Delaware and urge every re s
ident of The Fir st State to
continue to be hospitable to all visitors and
to remember that some travel
er's most la st ing memory
of your area could be you.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I, Russell W. Peterson, Governor
of the State of Delaware, have hereunto set my hand
and caused the Great Seal of the
said State to be hereunto affixed at
Dover this 20th day of May in the year of our Lord, one thousand
nine hundred and seventy, and of the
Independence of the United States of America, the one hundred
and ninety-fourth.
