TORQUAY.
HE meeting wasn't reported-but the resolution they considered told quite a lot about Holiday- time in 1949 to those who can see a little below the surface.
Briefly the problem was this?— Who should have firzt right to get an a bus--the plattor on holiday or the local worker. (most probably someone on his way to attend to that same visitor's comforts)?

And now the view grows' that This priority system is "an in- su to visitors."
The
Torquay Hotels Associa- tion therefore put it to the vote at this meeting.
