The lively interest America takes in its foreign visitors is well illustrated by the experience of Ram Chandru Basu, 22-year-old mechanical engineering student from Calcutta, India.
While a guest of this country on his round-the-world motorcycle trip, Basu reported last September that by the time he reached Tucson, Arizona, he had been stopped 210 times by police, searched several times, and even taken to jail once for questioning.
This record in hospitality topped anything accorded in thirty-eight other countries.
