Medford Couple En Route Home From Stay Abroad Mr. and Mrs. Melvin A. Krows expected to arrive in New York City Monday from Europe, hav ing crossed the Atlantic on the S. S. Maasdam. Writing from Cork, Ireland, Mr. Krows de scribed their stay in Paris, the trip on the boat train to LeHarve and the crossing to Southampton. The Krows. wrote that it was cold and rainy in both Switzer land and France, and that they thought Paris "over rated" as a city of culture and of well dressed women. "From our ob servations, Medford girls wear just as good clothing and look better than the Parisionnes," the letter said. "Prices are 100 per cent high er (in . Paris) than the rest of Europe and economic conditions bad, with little indication of any attempt to work their way out of their inflation. The consump tion of wine is tremendous." The letter also mentioned a bad blizzard in England "the most severe weather recorded at this time of year in 72 years." Mr. Krows Was impressed with the boat train and commented "Our 'Friendly Southern Pacific' could well profit by adopting railroad equipment similar to our boat train special, Paris to LeHavre. It had light diesel equipped coaches, operated as a single unit or in series. Our train consisted of four units and ran from Paris to LeHavre without stop at a rate of 70 to 75 miles per hour." Later Mr. Krows wrote "our travels so far in eight countries have been in all sorts of convey ances, except horse back and bicycles."
