Winter lay-up centered on this prob
lem and propellers.
Special instruments were installed
in various parts of the ship to meas
ure the varying amplitudes Of local
vibration, and these have furnished a
large amount Of very exact data" he
stated. "As a matter of fact. the
vibration noted on board the Nor
mancie when moving at high speed
during her early voyages was limited
almost exclusively to that part Of the
stern Immediately over the propellers
and was imperceptible in almost the
whole Of the rest Of the ship.
Vibration is the effect of speed,
and all big ships, at one time or an
other, suffer from it more or less. The
Normandie's earlier voyages were. at
least, no more marked by this incon-
venience than those Of som of her
predecessors. We have found the So
luton and the trouble will be re-
moved before she resumes service in
March.
Our engineers, may also mention,
have never held the idea that such
vibration as has been noticeable has
been due exclusively to the fact that
three-bladed propellers were being
used, or even that vibration has come
solely from the propellers."

CRUISES, luxury liners and
by regular sea routes, sun
shine seekers are exploring
~ the mysteries of the West
Indies
Like colorful beads on travel
necklace, the romantic Islands curl
through the southern waters. Ports
have more than just natural beauty;
they have background, saturated with
the romance of history. The shades
of Christophe and DessalineS lurk
over Haiti. Jamaica and Cartagena
saw the flashing cutlasses of Morgan
and Drake. Through Panama swept
the might of Spain, the stampede of
forty-ninerS. Here is color and con-
trast in nature, development and
civilization.
Jamaica, the garden spot of the
West Indies, is an island of many
moods and various types of county,
rugged upland, glorious mountains,
open cattle country, agricultural dis
tricts, fiat, steamy jungle. and pic
tureSque sea coast, with countless
lagoons, reefs and coral sand bathing
beacheS.
TWO hundred years ago, the harbor
of Port Royal was the rendezvous
of staggering ruffians of the sea.
To-day, it leads to peaceful, colorful
Kingston, Jamaica's capital, where
sparkling white buildings and coco
palms are silhouetted against blue
mountains. True to type, it is city
of violent contrasts. The stately statue
of Queen Victoria stands in a tropical
garden called the Parade. Sticks, u
quite Londonish and swagger, are
made o. sharks backbone and sold
in native market places. A step away
from modern hotels and Swanky
country clubs are small native villages
Of thatched huts. A cosmopolitan
resident brushes shoulders with a
happy, indolent black, and droopy
ox-cart pulls aside to make way for
q small automobile.
Another travel gem in the neck
lace Is Haiti, the land of beautiful
mountains. 1t starts like a mystery
movie and holds one with the drama
of its splendor. The markets have
theatrical color, a bedlam of bar
gaining, the mounds of incredible
fruits. Flashing white like Haitian
smile, is the cathedral. Alluring and
ancient, French-H Haitian mansions
squat behind the Champ de Mars.
Hairpin turns and weird wild seem
cry lie along the road to Kenecoff
Here plods an almost endless process
sion of natives bound for the market
place-nobly poised women, baskets

with fantastic loads Of chickens, pots,
pigs and herbs.
The pulsing other world life of Haiti
beats into the consciousness like the
voodoo drums of the olden times.
Sweeping before the club on top Of
the mountain is a panorama of noun
tain slopes, Port-au-Prince and the
bay, like miniature models of a color
mad artist.
DURING recent years, seasoned
travellers have discovered the
varied interests of Puerto Rico, where
sports continue throughout the year
in enduring sunshine. 81
There is great historic charm about
the ancient capital of San Juan, and,
if the stones of FL Moro could speak,
they would relate much of the long
story of the New World conquest.

quiet and haunting beauty, are as
solid as in the day when they gave
protection to SPANS treaSure-laden
galleons from the preylng pirates.
Hospitable and romantic is Borinquen.
A nights ride by water is another
gem, Santo Domingo. Suddenly, from
behind coral escarpment, it appears
Homage Tower and the ancient city
gate, the ruins of Diego Columbus
castle projecting over the wall. The
lilt Of Latin music and laughter fill
the air. Narrow streets. surprisingly
clean, are bright in the sun. Ok carts
vie with taxis for right of way. Around
a sharp corner spreads the exotic CEN
tral plaza, and there stands the great
cathedral.
ON EVERY island are the native
groups weaving baskets of intri-
cate pattern and astonishing color.
Brilliant red, green. yellow and purple
are woven together to produce
hambouyantly beautiful whole.
Knitted hemp crushable baskets of
many hues have caught on" in the
States and are used for knitting bags.
The longer the hemp handle the more
valuable the bag. Huge baskets of
natural-colored hemp have the cover
secured by handles and are also gen.
eral favorite with the tourists.
Other native products, handicraft
and needlecraft which find their way
north are hemp hat and bag sets, de-
veloped with enough style and beauty
to compliment Fifth avenue (where
many sets do land); leather sandals.

among the foods and drinks.

Steamship police report in
ternational crooks, hit hard by
A@ the crisis, are disappearing
from the high seas.
These suave gentlemen, who once
profitabIy piled the ocean trade be-
tween New York and lie Havre, now
can't even pay their passage with
their meager gains, says Louis Henry,
head of the police on the Normandie.
Henry gives three reasons for the
diminishing number Of card sharps,
confidence men and ordinary petty
thieves travelling on ocean liners.
First is poker's waning popularity
and bridges gains.
Bridge players, usually aware of
their limitations. hesitate before play
ing with strangers for high stakes" :"
he said.
Second, bitter memories of the
Wall Street crash of 90 sharpened
skepticism among American travellers
and even the most logical arguments
of persuasive confidence men fall on
deaf ears these days.
Third, reduction of the number of
days crossing the Atlantic makes it
virtually impossible for international
crooks to lay solid groundwork for
friendships"
Stewards, Wallets and walters are
trained to observe movements of pas
sengers. In this way. Henry said,
thefts are kept to minimum.
