.STOWAWAY SEASON
 CLOSING FOR YEAR
Fewer Free Trippers in France
 as Fall Grows

La tiaVre. France, Oct. 1G UP)- The jails of this bustlng trans Atlantic port are resuming their conn parative autumnal quiet as they 'cmpty themselves of the annual con- tlngent Of youthful, venturesome Americans picked ont from hiding places in the dank holds of tourist liners.
 All the year round a few sTag- glcrs of the bold company of trans Atlantic StoWaWayS may be found in the town. They are not always in the jail The municipality long ago became tired of paying for board and lodging for the long stream of "American clandcstincs' and sooner or later the offenders go free.
 Thus if you stroll about the port you will find them lounging on the Quay-side thinking of home and a square meal, and dreaming of the time when d letter will arrive with sufficient funds from the old folks to enable them to step honestly aboard a liner with ticket safely in | hand.
 In the busy summer months. as many as 20 young Americans find themselves in the jail at Le Hayrc because of their passion for free travel. After leaving jail, they us ually drift along to the scamcn's home, run by an elderly Englishman for whom life holds no more sur priscs. The charge for bed per night is about one franc. According to some of these stowaways who ought 10 know after several months resi- Gence, credit at the seamens shelter is good.
 If this should meet the eye of any one intending to try this form of cheap travel next year, let him be warned. Since the writer has met scored of these ocean stowaWays, he can testify to the difficulty of travel ing free.
 If you don't believe this, listen to the story of q New ark, N. J,>youth &s told to your correspondents:
 ''I had a good idea" he said, that if l took a few drinks before a got aboard at Le HaVrc and then fell
  asleep in a quiet corner and woke up when the ship was well out from the harbOr l could get away with a free passage by complaining they were | carrying me away against my VIII from my job in France.
 'I got aboard all right with some friends whom l was supposed to be seeing off. l fell asleep, too. But soon woke up. You see, they check d the number of tickets for visitors given out. When the whistle blew for visitors ashore they found one short and they searched for me"
 So instead of getting to Newark he arrived at Le Havrc jail. What he has to say of jail-life in France is @ bit too prolane for repetition.
