Tourist Outfitters' Camps 



A prosperous tourist trade during the 1945 season, exceeding the pre-war 

 volume, served to stimulate the growing interest in post-war expansion. Whereas 

 the erection of 149 new camps was authorized the previous year, over 400 appli- 

 cations for permits were considered in 1946. of which 328 were granted as at 

 March 31st, 1947. There was also much activity in the rehabilitation and expan- 

 sion of established camps. The acute shortage of basic building materials did. 

 however, retard the anticipated expansion in the industry, as only 171 new 

 camps were completed and licensed to operate. 856 current licenses were issued, 

 an annual increase of 35%. including 51 camps which had not operated during 

 the war. Ill licenses were issued at a non-resident fee of $25.00 each, and 745 

 at a resident fee of SIO.OO each. (See table).
