stays at hotels, the daily cost de-
creaSeS.
But the average tourist" he
added, docs not consider trip
primarily from the angle of cost
per day. The kind of trip and its
overall cost are the primary consid-
erations Those who plan carefully,
selecting practical routings over
which accommodations can be OBJ
tanned in advance, will find they
can see Europe at reasonable cost
and with satisfactory service
Comparing the present cost of
travel to Europe with prewar levels,
Mr.. White gave this summary:
The minimum first-class fare for
a crossing on the Queen Elizabeth
and Queen Mary this year has been
fixed at 1865. In 1889 the minimum
first-class crossing on the Queen
Mary was $316. Here the increase
is only about Is per cent. In cabin
class on these great liners, which
was formerly called tourist class,
we find a greater increase in cost,
amounting to about 80 per cent over
the preWar fares.
Increases in Atlantic fares vary
according to ships. In the case Of
some of the medium sized liners,
without the great carrying capacity
of the Queens, the rates this sum-
mer may be so per cent higher than
before the war. On the other hand,
the cost of transatlantic air travel
has decreased about 80 per cent. In
1910 the air passage from New York
to Lisbon was $425. AT that time
Lisbon was the only European air
gateway. Now there are air services
to all OF the European cities which
serve as starting points for Old
World Tours.
"Air passage to London costs 1925,
to Paris $345, to Amsterdam $357,
Stockholm $405, Vienna Sab. Trans
Atlantic air travel is steadily in
creasing. Even in the month of De-
cember, 13,024 overseas air passen-
gers arrived and departed at. La
Guardia Airport in New York Much
larger numbers are expected during

In view of the general rise in price
levels over the last seven years
what will European trip cost in
l947?
The question is answered by Har-
old White, president of Thomas
Cook & Son, which now is operat-
ing Offices in 27 countries abroad
He says the expense will not be ex-
orbitant, and cites figures that per-
NIT practical, though preliminary,
approach to weighing an itinerary
against ones budget.
Commenting on the cost of trav-
cling within Europe. Mr.. White said:
Taking as a yardstick an inclu-
sive tour, in which the passenger
is provided with all transportation,
hotel accommodations, meals and
sightseeing, We find that the cost
of travelling in Europe this year
compares favorably with the cost
of travel on our side of the world,
though there are increases over the
preWar level. Visiting Europe this
summer, travelling in several differ
ent countries on a first-class basis,
let us say on tour of from 30 to
40 days duration, the cost will come
to about $25 per day. A similar tour
in 1889 cost about $21 per day. A
more moderate scale of travel in
Europe, which has always been IA
vored by thousands of Americans,
will cost this summer about SIT per
day as against $12 or $13 per day
in 1889"
Mr.. White pointed out that it is
difficult to generalize about travel
costs on a per diem basis; that the
actual cost of any tour depends on
the route, the distance covered and
the time involved. Rapid travel
over great distances, with short
stays at each point, increases the
per diem cost, he cautioned. BY

EN- ROUTE TO WASHINGTON
June 12.-If there can be a stablliz-
ing influence on club mired deer
In the second division, husky, olive
skinned Early Wynn represents II
among the Mats. The sturdy, 27-
year-old right-hander nearly has
convinced his mates it's case o1
winning with Wynn or not at all.
The Mats are being chuggeo
homeWard with the rancid record
of four victories in II games on
a Western jaunt, and three of those
triumphs were credited to Wynn
who achieved his seventh win OF
the season last night when he de-
feated the Browns, 4-2, on six hits
at st. Louis.
Wynn scared to 18 victories in
1943, but there's a growing convic-
ton he'll top that performance this
year. A violent argument can be
fomented by claiming he's a better
pitcher than Sid Hudson Or Walter
MaSterson and Bobo Newsom'S sup
porters may point to terrible luck
in reasoning that Bobos record
could approach Wynns with more
batting support.
Wynn was no sensation in cap
turing his early decisions this year
He was hammered freely. but the
Mats at the time hit more Justify.
Now. with warm weather and trim
waistline, Wynn is giving sparkling
pitching exhibitions.
IT was Wynn who elevated the

seventh place last night. and despite
their meager hitting the Mats re-
main only six games off the pace
Through no fault of theirs the Mats
still are very much in the pennan'
fuss, but only candidates fol
straitjackets will insist they are
pennant material, barring a com
plete reversal of batting form.
In As games this season, the Mats
| have averaged an unimpressive three
runs game. Ten times they have
been held to two runs, nine times
they have been limited to one run
and on five occasions they have
been BANKED.
That sort of hitting would make
it tough on a pitching staff COM
priSed of Walter johnson, Bob Eel
Ter, Dizzy Dean and Lefty Grove at
their best. Masterson, Hudson,
Wynn and Newsom have been
pitching consistently enough to
have installed the Mats high in the
first division, but WaShington's hit
ting thus far has wrecked its
chances.
For the first time in seven games
the Mats gave pitcher as many as
four runs to operate on and Wynn
made them stand up. He walked
only one and permitted two hits in
the last six innings, retiring is
Browns in order over one stretch.
Washington clustered two runs in
the first inning on singles by Eddie
Yost, Mickey Vernon and Stan
Spence, plus jerry Priddys long fly.
But the Browns sliced that advan-
tage to 2-1 in their first on Bob
Dillinger's single and Paul Lehner's S
double. They locked the score in
the second when Walter Judnich
drilled a home run into the right
centerfield stand.
The Mats picked UP 32 lead
off Sam Zoldak in the fourth when
Mark Christman walked with one
out, scooted to third on Rick Fer
rell's single and score on Wynn's
fly to deep center. Washington
boosted the score to its final pro-
portions in the eighth when Buddy
Lewis, who had doubled, scored as
Judnich fumbled Stan Spence S
