Thrift Fores to Europe
Considered by AirIines

There's a strong possibility
that a new air fare-slicing as
much as 500 of round-trip
flights to Europe will be
agreed on at an international
meeting in Miami later this
month.
In the wind are various pro-
posals for discussion at the In
ternational Air Transport AS
sociation's m citing. Among
them is a new thrift" fare
which would dispense with
some of the frills Of tourist
flights and an extension of the
excursion fare to allow three
instead Of two weeks in Europe.
Some cautious predicting was
done at the recent regional
meeting of the American Asso-
citation Of Travel Agents by Ru-

OCEAN CITY. Nd. Aug. 81
(SpeciaD. Thousands of

But just because it's the
traditional last holiday of sum-

Today's tip from a travel
expert.
TOO many people go to
Europe with a chip on
their shoulder" says Mrs.
Laura Waters of Waters
Travel Service. They ex-
pect to be f1eeced and they
often go out Of their way
to look for it. If q cab
driver takes them out Of
the way in New York. they
complain and forget it. But
If a French cab driver does
the same thing, they talk
about it for years.
MY advice: Consider the
people of Europe no differ
ent than the ones in your
own home town. They're
just people. Don't magnify
an unpleasant experience
out Of all proportion just
because it happened in

The world first discovered
Elba when Napoleon was sent
there on one of his forced re-

leave. however. he tended to
give Elba a bad name.
For more than a century Elba
was left pretty much to the
vineyarders. fishermen AM

who were being pushed out of
every good recreation area
from Sicily to the Riviera by
the worlds lovers Of the Italian
way Of living it UP, found a
refuge on Elba.
They camped on the sandy
beaches and ate with the peas
ants.
But the French and Germans
heard about the Elba hideaway,
and they started coming over,
too. The Germans demanded
better organization. so hotels
and roads were built. The
French demanded better eat
