For 22 years, Armitage was asso- ciated with the Hawailan Tourist Bureau and is credited withh much of Hawaii’s success as a vacation- land. Not long after he was graduated from . the University of Montana {with that institution's first degree in journalism, Armitage went to the Islands to work for Riley Allen on the Honolulu Star Bulletin. During World War I he was with |the Siberian Expeditionary Force, and soon after his return to Hon- olulu left the newspaper business for the Hawaii Tourist. Bureau of which he was a part from 1920 until another war came along and the business was discontinued in | 1942. Mr. Armitage then combined his interest in tourists and his exper- ience as a journalist -to enter the publishing business. With his wife he is editor -and publisher of a dozén or more publications of in- terest to travelers. Everything from ‘a dictionary of Hawaiian words, to a short history, a cook book of Hawaiian cocktails, is pub- lished with Armitage imprint. AN the souvenir publications, the big post cards that are so popular that the hotels are changing their mail boxes so the mail slots will be large enough to accommodate them, these are all published by the Ar- mitages. Here at the invitation of the Alaska Deyvelopment Board with a view to studying Alaska's needs in its approach to an incréased tourist business, Mr. Armitage says that he does not want to tell Alaskans what they should do. “All I can do is tell you of my own exper- iences in helping to develop Ha- wali’s tourist business,” Mr. Armi- tage said.
