supposed to know anything about it.

haustively," said Van VEssingen to
reporter for The Day Book, ''and my
opinion and that of other members is
the same now as then. Our commit;

That the comprehensive" Hearst
Harrison subway and the initial
Tribune-News subway are both
wrong and either one of them will end
in just as many straphangers hang
ing desperately to straps as now is
the view of members of the Cook
County Real Estate Board Com
mittee on Subways, officers of
the Chicago Federation of Labor and
officers of the Greater Chicago Fed
Grafton and the Northwest Side Com
mercial Association.
They are against subways mainly
for two reasons. One is that Chicago
is not an island city like New York,
and while there are broad Illinois
prairies for this city to spread out
on it is foolish to haul people in dark,
bad-smelling tunnels away from
fresh air. The other reason is that
either or both the subways now pro-
posed would only pour more people
than ever into the loop, and in the
course of twenty years there would
have to be subways under subways
in order to carry the hundreds of
thousands of shoppers down to the
little narrow seven blocks of State
street department stores which are
the dumping ground of all urban
transportation lines now.
Besides these men who are out and
out against subways of any kind
(their names are given below is an
other group of men who say that no
body has any business to make a de-
cision now as to whether they are for
or against the comprehensive oompa-

son politicians or the dinky toot-toot
subway of the Bion Arnold, Tribune
News crowd. Among these men, and

either for or against subways, at this

One of the survivors, in explaining
the quickness with which the Empress
of Ireland went down, said:
The collier, being only something
over 5000 tons, did not reach up even
to the upper or topmost deck OF o21
hull. Her bow cut under the upper
| deck and took peeling off the side OF
our ship that allowed the water TO
rush into the lower decks. Then the
liner heeled over, and even those IN
| the superstructure deck rooms had no
chance to save themselves. Hundreds
of them must have been dumped out
of their berths and slammed against
the walls with stunning force"

Up they swarmed on deck in their
night clothing to find the ship heeling
away to port and the deck slanting at
degree that made 1t almost impos-
sible to stand even cllnging to ratings.
Men and women, shrieking, praying,
crying for aid that was fated to arrive
too late, fell over one another in that
last struggle for life on board the
doomed Empress of Ireland.
Frenzied mothers leaped overheard
with their babies in their arms. Others
knelt on deck and tried to pray in the
few moment left to them. Some were
flung overheard by the heeling of the

than eight thousand tons, left Mon

Of pilot, proceeded slowly on her
way to sea- AT midnight the pilot
aide left near Father Point, shouting
merry "Eon Voyage" as he went
down their ladder to his waiting boat.
The darkness at this time was in
tense and the ship under the slowest
speed possible with steerageway held
her course. Her decks were deserted,
The passengers had all sought their
berths with no thought of impending
death,

The Storstad at once lowered every
one OF her boats and sent them to
save the passengers and crew of the
Empress, though she herself was in
serious danger of sinking. When two
boats from the Empress reached the

ned these boats and went in them to
the rescue.
Her own boats made several trips,
