TOURISTS SMOOTH WORLD % Foreign Travel No Better Than Picture Show and Much More Expensive,

By EDWIN E. SLOSSON Director of Science Service TRAVELING levels down the land. Mountains are bored through, rivers bridged, ravines filled In, so trains may travel on even track and the passengers be dnaware of their motion. Just j#>, tourism is smoothing out the irregularities of the world of men. People search the earth to find some place that seems foreign and then insist on making it over to look like home. Whether In Peking or Biskra they demand the same language, the same cooking, the same room temperature. the same bathrooms, the same shopping, and the same newspapers. This sort of foreign travel is no better than a picture show and much more expensive and InconvenientFresh Fields Sought And when some strange and uncomfortable country has been duly ! reduced to a dead level and provided with the comforts of home to the discomfort of its inhabitants, the tourists turn away in distaste and seek fresh fields and pastures new. So ail men kill the thing they love. They pull up by the roots the flowers they admire. The climate and configuration of a I landscape are incorrigible, but human life is more plastic. When the tourist finds a land not so outlandish as he expected it to be, he insists upon its people being made over to conform to what he has read about it. At his behest ruins are resurrected and legends Invented. He demands folk dances and characteristic music wherever he goes. Hindu Gods Manufactured So Hindu gods are manufactured in Birmingham and Balkan handicrafts imported from Paris. I have heard Indians being drilled in warwhoops by a college cheer leader. I have seen Samoans laying aside their civilized clothing and putting on bark skirts, to look like pictures in geographies. I have known real cowboys ordering furry chaps from a theatrical costumer for the next Wild West show with the trepidation of a boy buying his first dress suit. And when such local characteristics have been discovered or cultivated and the natives have been moved back into the dark ages or barbarism to make them conventionally picturesque, the next step is to spread these peculiarities abroad so as to even up the earth. Palaces Erected Moorish palaces and Greek temples are erected in every town. The miracle play is urged to leave Oberammergau to go on toiy;. Hawaiian music encircles the world. Vaudeville artists black their faces to sing negro songs. The mummy of Tut-Ankh-Amen is unearthed to serve as a fashion plate. Turkish delight and Arabian dates are sold along with indigenous popcorn and maple sugar. The phonograph brings the songs of all nations into every home. Soon all the advantages of foreign travel are to be had right at home and
