To the Editor Of The Evening Star:
1 noticed in your editorial yesterday re-
ferring to the Paris disaster the statement
that good sailors are to be found only
among the Americans, English and Ger
mans. Perhaps Holland because of her
Httleness was overlooked in this enuuera-
ton, otherwise the Dutch would have been
included. The world has always acknowl-
edged their superiority on the sea, and the
most important expeditions for exploration
Barentz, Van Tasman, Van Tromp and De
Ruyter down to Van der See who recently
made his hundredth voyage on the Holland
line without having had a single mishap.
The Dutchman is a born sailor. At an
early age he becomes skipper, using his
wooden shoe for q boat, a cabbage leaf for
a sail and the drainage bitches for his
ocean. J. H. GORE.
