It has, since the war, developed into a desert resort whose ultra-fashionable resort hotels are, at first, as strange a sight to behold as a cowboy astride his horse would be in front of the Sporting Club in Monte Carlo, Seven of these giants flarking a wide highway represent an investment of twenty-seven million dollars, cost sunk into the desert during the past few years. Standing guard outside a city of 35,000 inhabitants they are as fabulous an expression of America's march of time as any. For, the first men to settle by two narrow streams of water at an old Mexican camping ground were 30 young Mormons detailed by Brigham Young from Salt take City in 1?║55 "to build a fort to protect immigrants and the United States mail from the Indians, and to teach the latter how to raise corn, wheat, potatoes, squash, and melons?╓¬" They were withdrawn from the fort two years later. Las Vegas was really born on M^y l?·th, 1905, -wfaen the railroad auctioned off land to settlers at a sale that lasted two days, and during which 1,200 lots were sold at a total price of $265,000-, Thirty days later a town was taking shape. Thirty years later it reached the depths of depression. Those who held out are rich people today. Today Las Vegas is a tovn for tourists, the place where you forget your worries and have fun and, but definitely, test Lady Luck, the great Patroness of Las Vegas yielding an estimated $i;3^000,000 gross revenue to the local casinos* About five million tourists will have passed through Las Vegas in 1953 as they did in 1952, leaving behind an estimated |60,800,000 exclusive of money on gambling and drinking, Needless to say, a veritable hospitality corps is stationed in the desert city to take care of the visitors, ii,600 men and women who work at the hotels, motels, casinos and bars. Las Vegas boasts seven resort hotel colossi, twenty-six commercial hotels and one hundred and forty-five motels, all totaling 5>6lO rooms and suites which are 90 per cent occupied^.
