After December first, the Austrian State Tourist Department announces, visitors who wish to enter Austria can secure military permits by purchase of newly issued tourist cards which are obtainable from travel agents or from the Department. Austria, which offers winter skiing second to none in Europe, will have 10,000 beds available for tourists this winter; 40,000 beds for summer visitors. Until this new plan was announced, it was neces- sary to make reservations and pay for them in ad- vance through the State Tourist Department. The new tourist cards will cover periods of one, three or seven days but can be combined into any total number of days desired. Additional cards can be pur- chased in Austria. Thus visitors can enter and stay as long as they like, with or without previous hotel reservations. They can move freely from place to | place and stay where they please, either in hotels or | as visitors in private homes. | Customs officers at the border will issue to the holders of tourist cards meal coupons which will | permit them to go to any hotel or restaurant and uhey tell us, is of buy meals for the same price paid by Austrians.
