Ocean Travel
Again Is Heavy

that of last year. and not until late
summer, when American tourists be-
gin to return. will the trend turn.
First-class arrivals have been 1890,
against $4,000 last year; second class
have been 31,6OO, against $500; third
class have been only 1851, compared
with 210,7OO in 1921. The discrep-
ancy this year Is due in all three
classes to the immigration law, which
was not in effect In the spring of
1921. Many incoming aliens lse first
and second cabins as well as the
steerage. 1t Is the belief of the steam
ship men that this act has. cut off
what would have been new record
for transatlantic passenger business
The figures given here do not include
sallings from Montreal, which are an
important factor
The International Mercantile Ma
rine company, including the White
Star, Red Star and American lines,
reports considerable increase In
business, especially on It's monster
ships going to Channel ports. The
American line vessels TO Hamburg are
sailing full, carrying four times as
many passengers as last year. Con-
siderable space Is available on the
Red Star line and the White Star
services to Liverpool. Bookings from
Montreal and Philadelphia are far
ahead Of last year. Business is well
up to expectations.
The most favorable report was re-
ceived from the United States lines,
operating shipping board vessels,
where 1t was said that all ships, on
the Bremen and London service, are
practically full In first and second
cabins, but that in some instances &C.
commodations can be obtained.
Medium Ships Do Good Business.
At the offices of the United Amer
lean lines 1t was said that the Reso-
Lutte and Reliance are sailing nearly
full In first and second cabins, while
the third-class quarters are fairly
well booked. The medium ships of
the United American and the Ham,
burg-American were reported to be
doing a good business.
The Cunard-Anchor lines reported
an increase In traffic, but pointed that
as result OF heavy additions of new
tonnage this year 1t can accommo-
date still greater gain in travel.

Moderately good business was report
ed from the Royal Mail. the Holland
America, the French line. and other
transatlantic companies
The increase In passenger tonnage
this year has been enormous. AS an
instance, the Cunard has added IL
new vessels of about 10000 tons, and
also has the Berengaria of $1,000
tons In constant service now. The
International Mercantile Marine has
added the Majestic. the Homeric
Regina, Pittsburgh, and has brought
out the st. Paul again. The United
States lines has number of new com.
bination cargo and passenger ships
running TO Germany and Britain. The
United American lines has for the
first time become factor In the high
class passenger trade. The French
line has added the Paris Smaller
ships have been brought into service
by several other lines.
