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."
