That the active propaganda" and ad- vertising which has been carried on during the last dozen of years is at the bottom of this change is quite evident, but there is no doubt that the results of these activities would have been even more important if the means at the disposal of those engaged in furthering the tourist traffic to the Indies had not been so extremely limited.

The article goes on to remark, that, these islands being off the beaten tract of the tourist, and for other self-evident reasons, there have been many difficulties in furthering the traffic, whilst much more, commensurate with results, has had to be spent on advertising than in the case of juch more easily accessible Mecens af the sightseer as Egypt, Japan and Chin Nevertheless, this policy, Töf boosting little known lands justifies itself in results, and there is no doubt that the work of the Netherlands Indian "Official Tourist Bureau, supplying information gratis and distributing literature abroad is not only desirable but a necessity.
