I WOMAN'S HAIR
GRAY ON TRIP
Fearful Storm at Sea Makes
Life On Ships One of
Nightmare.
BY JACK H 11 1
(Copyrlpht, 1922, by The Standard
FxnmlmT NEW YORK. Dec SO. With
twisted stanchions straightened and
smashed bulkheads repaired, some of
the ocean liners that crawled Into
port this week, days late and caked
with salt and lee nfter battling through
the most stupendous tempests that
have swept the Atlnnt: ui 20 years,
went out airaln today C I" Klnp
Neptune and all his woi h
It Is relating the commonplace of
ocean peril to say that the lncomlni?
liners reported waves 100 feet high,
that the hurrlr.ane blew at 100 miles
an hour; that one woman's hair
turned gray during the trip, that (.'IP
tains spent days on the bridge with
out morn than a few minutes sleep.
When these big, general statements,
are made there are still the little
human things to record. the things
whloJ throw Into relief tho Immens
ity of the danger through which the
veai&ll passed, and Incidentally the
height of rourage which those dan
gers evoked.
STORY OP SOUP
There was. for example, the little
matter of Captain H'nrl Bolshon's
plate of soup, one of the French
line stewards started for the bridge
three times with a plate of hot broth
intended to refresh the ship's com
mander aftr sorim -i c. hour:, nil witch
without sleep or change of clothing
"n his first trip the Steward was
half way up a stair when La Savole
put her nose Into a wave and sent
both r-oup and steward 20 feet down
a corridor.
Upon a second attempt, the stew
ard took a short cut, which led him
on deck for a moment Ia Savole
chose that moment to roll, she rolled
Until lier flinnnlo uirn aim rmi narall!
I with the ea, till everything not fas
tened down, fell with nn appalling
clatter to deck and floor. The stew
ard slid toward tho rail, a flip of a
comber washed him back toward tho
bridge ladder, WhU h he clutched, and
when, half drowned, he opened hie
eyes the pall of soup had vanished
His third attempt was made' during
tho arrival of that sea which lifted
tho saloon piano from Its fastenings,
l ore It almo.st celling high, and threw
It against the end of the music room.
When the tons of water had lashed
through the vessel and off again, the
steward found himself and an empty
soup pall on top of a table outside
the saloon, with no very clear Idea
of how ho Fi there. Bruised anu
dazed ho was relieved by a com
panion who managed to carry the
soup to Its destination.
THINKS OP MUSIC.
Tho things a captain thinks about
uch a time aro odd and not n- ci -sarlly
related. Captain Bolshon
thought of a hot hath, lie thought of
Sandy Hook Which he earnestly de
sired to behold. He thought of a cer
tain Christmas festival. but he
thought chiefly of how to keep up
tho moralo of the p n ssenp-.-rs and
crew. Thus it happened that h
thought of music, and of music
Savole had plenty, een after the
piano had gone on Its Involuntary
rampage, even after some of the In
struments were smashed by being
dashed about th music room Tho
orchestra played and It played Jaza
and such of the passengers as were
ablo to leave their rooms cmiled
bravely at the syncopation, trlng to!
forget that they were "battered down" I
and virtually Imprisoned in a boat'
which seemed llkeyl to turn over any1
moment. When the piano banked
across the saloon, where many men
and women were seated, Purser I
Plcard managed to laugh. He admits1
that he quaked inwardly, for o 1,000
pound piano Is not a safe thing to
have sliding around a room, but thu i
Iiaugn nnti uio few Jesting words
quieted what might ha e become a
panic.
Tho chefs on the battered linr
by the way. will tell you that the
captain's Job was a sinecure with
their own. But naturally Ie Com
mandente was not obliged to dodge
hot dishes and stove lids, kettles fun
of boiling water, nor the red hot
angle of a stove when the ship threw
everyone belter skelter Nor was it
necessary for tho captain to pursue
a griddle or a kitchen spoon half
tho length of La Bavole every tlmo
the ocean turned Itself Inside out
Tho truly difficult .lob, as every itew
ard Is willing to admit, Is trlng to
carry a cup of coffee to passenger
at a table at the far end of a dining
room afflicted with St. Vitus' dance
Dno and all, however, were smiling
and urbane as they started back to. lav '
unperturbed. "It cannot bf worse, '
hey say.

THOUSANDS ARE
LEAVING CANADA
I
Settlers Move to United
States Tired of Euro
pean Politics.
Bj JOHN (. LRDINER.
((Copyright, 1922. by The Standard
Lxamlner. )
MONTREAL, Dec. 30 Canadians
'are emigrating to the United States In
numbers that ur puzzling the offi
cials of both countries. Not only is
,thls so but the withdrawals from the
! dominion aro so surprising that there
!l a deep feeling of concern in official
J quarters here as lo Just what the real
reason Is.
Th-ro Is a growing belief that one
at leaet of the reasons is the deplrc on
jthe part of the Canadians to get away
from European discussion. They are
"fed up' with European poiith a and
beliefs and the Injection of "Kuro
ipean situations" Into domestic mat
Iters does not sit well.
But after all, to makd the new year
1 happy, Montreal, which Is very fast
l becoming a very strong 'nationalist''
(municipality, has within its borders
I tonight many Americans who have
come here to m Icoti.e In the new
year. A new hotel here has adver
tised liberally inviting residents from
i below the border t- spend the nnnl
I versa rv here and the result has been
Ian influx of visitors who Intend to
iforgtH that "back homo" prohibition
holds sway.
HOI SANDS DEPART.
An estimate of the startling In
crease of immigration from the Do
minion of Canada Is practically Indi
cated by tho statement recently is
sued by the department of immigra
tion that since the yesir 1914, more
than 700.000 people have left Canada
for other countries.
It is probable for this reason th:it
the dominion government has under
taken to sponsor a movement to
stimulate tho emigration of settlers to
fh.. I'nlt.'il States. Gnat
Britain nnd Scandinavia, This is a
completo reversal of the policy In
force from November 30. 1920. to May
last, during which period Immigrants
were discouraged and many stringent
! requisitions made before they could
Ifind it possible to gain admission at
all.
During tho last ten years Canada
has lost more by emigration to tho
United States than hc has gained by
(immigration from all other countries.
Thus between 1911 and 1-1 Canada's
population Increased by l.&oo.ooo to
S, 7 00,000, but during that time there
was a natural Increase of 1,886,000
and Immigration totalling l.aTi.COO.
After making full allowance lor war
losses, it is evident that the country
did not even maintain the Increase
due to natural accretion.
UfMIGRAl OK li ( LINES.
Although monetary and other re
strictions have been removed at least
partially, immigration continues to
decline. In the period of from April
to October, last records available, en
tries numbered 52,651 compared to
7 2,015 for the same period a year
previous, showing a decrease of 276
Of immigrants during the present
year. 25.563 were British. 16.7S1 were
from the United States and 10,37 1
from other countries. In the past six
months r.o.ooo Englishmen went to
Aust ralla alone.
Here Is what the Honorable Charlos
Stewart, acting minister of Immigra
tion, lias to say on the subject:
"We propose to initiate at onco an
active advertising and publicity cam
paign in Great Britain and the I'nited
Btates and to extend Into the favored
countries of northern Europe as cir
cumstances permit. We shall partic
ularly seek settlers with some capital
in a position to buy and cultivate the
vacant lands now adjacent to our
railways, but we shall also provide de
partmental machinery to bring the
tenant farmer into touch with rental
opportunities which will give him B
chance to begin 1
In tho case of (treat Britain. Can
ada has never availed herself of the
British government's offer to pay half
the cost of an emigrant's faro to a
dominion provided the dominion fur
nished the other half. This Is in con
trast with the action of Australia,
where 6,000,000 pounds is to be spent
in assisting residents of tho British
isles to settle in the commonwealth.
LUKE is ABSENT.
Beferrlng to the lure of free lands,
which has turned the tide of immigra
tion from Canada to Australia, Mr.
Stewart said-
"One of the magnets which was
most potent In attracting settlement
to Canada in tho early years of the
century tho granting of public lands
as free homesteads is no longer a
factor to tho extent It previously was.
There are still large areas of crown
lands, but they are for the most part
too remote from railways to uc an
important factor.
'The Inclusion of Scandinavia
among tho favored countries is a new i
departure and Its outcome is problematical."

BREAK FOR LIBERTY
SALT LAKE. Dec. 50. A sensa
tional break for liberty, frustrate 1

back of tho room with Guards Roger
Junes and A. L. Allen. In the mid I
of the court procedure on another I
Case, Ralph suddenly jumped up and
dashed through tho door Into the cor

drawing their weapons, but fearing
to shoot because of other persons who
were in the hallway.
Ralph dashed down the corridor
