Gov. Egan Appoints
25-Member Tourist
Advisory Board
JUNEAU, Dec. 19 (J’l — Gov.
William A. Egan today announced
the appointment of a 25-member
advisory board to help the state
formulate and carry on its tourist
promotion program.
Creation of the board was urged
last month by Tourist Industry
leaders at a state-sponsored con
ference on tourism, which drew
some 60-75 representatives of the
industry to Juneau.
Members of the advisory board,
to be headed by President Merle
K. Smith of Cordova Airlines, will
receive no compensation for their
work. Neither will they receive
travel pay or per diem.
In a letter to each member of
the newly created board, Egan
said he hoped it would meet every
six months and would seek pri
vate funds with which to carry
out tourist promotion work of its
own, in conjunction with the
state program. The private moneys
would be expended only by the
board. The state would not be
involved in any way.
Egan said the Tourism Advisory
Board will die automatically un
der his interim appointment when
the 1961 Legislature meets on Jan.
23. But said he would ask the
Legislature shortly after it con
venes to authorize establishment
of the board on a permanent
basis. He said he anticipated that
present members of the board
would then be reappointed.
Among the board members
named were Frank Whaley of
Fairbanks and Ernest H. Gustaf
sen of Nome..
