Somewhere in the Atlantic, between the Azores and Bermudaâ€"What A strange place this is for the eaitor of a Canadian weekly newspaper to be in this latter part of October, 1941, after more than two years of war! And when you ccme to think of it, what a strange place for anyone to be, unless driven by dire necessity. Most of the other 140 people on board the U. S. Steamship Exambion are here because of necessity. They are fleeing frcm unhappy Europs, glad enough to get away in spite of the perils that may still lie ahead. They are refugees, hopingfor peace in the United States. The passenger list contains the name of a Prince related to one of the stillâ€" ruling royal families of Europe. Thers are such names as Gomez y Gomez, and Pastuhovy, and Pin Tsao, and Radâ€" ajewski. There is a group if wholeâ€" some young people who have left the U. S. Embassy in Berlin while the goâ€" ing is good and several Chinese families including some cute little children, beâ€" ing drawn from the Embassy in Switz~ erland. There is a man from the British diplomatic service, occupying cabin all by himslf because he carries conâ€" fidential information to: Washington, and there is a Lieutenant in the U. S. Navy in civilian clothes, returning from Eid n a mission to Britain. There are two English women forced to leave France on 24 hours‘ ncotice. They have notl tasted meat for two years because they fed their entire ration, gjuch as it was, to a Siamese cat that now accompanies them on the ship. There is a little French girl who ordered two poached! eggs on the boat and then could not eat! them when they came, but sat and cried salt tears over them because her appetite was gone. And another famâ€" ily from Unsccupied France ate noâ€" thing but potatoes for their first f2ow meals. There is even a stately Fnglish woman who crawled out under barbed wire entanglements to get to Portugal and so on this ship. ‘ Editors on a Refugee Ship In such a crowd as this, eleven Canâ€" adian editors may seem rather out of place, and truly, none of us ever °xâ€" pected to be on this ship. We had planned to go fishing through the air from Lisbhon to New York, xeturning as we had come. But in October flyâ€" ing conditions Are uncertain. _ We seemed likely to wait in Lisbon for weeks before cour turn came to go on the Clipper. ‘One week in that city gOt us down. Those who were not actually sick were entirely unen‘thusiastic about any more Lishon meais or climate or scenery. We were after being trailed day after duy by members of the German gestapo who stayed in the same hotel as we did. When the chance came to feave by beat, we took it. tinued on its way, the TENnSsiOn TC_dA€0. The restul, monotonous days on board ship gave us all time to recover from strenuous and exciting times overseas. When the invitation came to me to go to England for a few weeks to repreâ€" «*nt the weekly papers ¢f Canada, there were many who envied me beâ€" | cause of that opportunity. If it is any | comfort to them now, I can say quite | truthfully that there were times when I would gladly have traded places with | any of them. Travel across the Atâ€" !hnt.ic these days is something that ishould not be undertaken except from necessity. sunk by the Germans, appareniiy D€eâ€" cause of tungsten ore on board, destinâ€" eda for the United States. Two days later, they were mourning the deaths of two British families from Portugal, returning to England until their ship was torpedced off the coast. On the way to Lishon, this saime steamship Excambion was met by a German all thing he jump ship. All preferred ship. Ail the rest O US WOuUU preferred ;o travel by air. Those in Peril on the Seas Four days before we left Li the papers of that city were all es because a Portugese ship had sunk by the Germans, apparentl rombing plane which cir mastâ€"high, and then fie On the day we sailed news came that the Ger bedoed the American d ney.

This awoke. it was da gave an} ind wen! wonderful weeks. I have crossed the Atlantic by air, one of the most roâ€" mantic voyages in the world today.' I have flown altogether some 9,000 miles by American Clipper, Royal PDutch Air Lines and British Overseas Airways. I have visited Bermuda, the Azores, England, Southern Ireland and Portugal. I have ta‘lked with Winston Churchill, many members ¢f his Cabinet, Britain‘s greatest newpaper men, a former Canadian Prime Minâ€" ister and the Canadian High Commisâ€" sioner, and the Canadian Corps Comâ€" mander and many of his officers and soldiers, and a host of the "common people" of England who have come through kombings, have lost their homes and their relatives, yet carry on in Britain‘s hour of need. I have tastâ€" ed the hospitality of great and small in England and have made new friends seen and heard and felt the explosions of huge enemy land mines and have eccme ithrough t he ordeal unscathed but knowing that if any one of a dozen things: had been slightly different, I would not have been here at all I sway. I have London with have segen the aircraft guns load their cargoes of death, and I have seen the Royal Canadian Air Force fighter pilots come back to their airports after ‘being in action. England in Wartime I have heard ‘Churchill defend his actions on the fioor of the House of Commons: and have stood amid the ruins of Coventry Cathedral. I have walked in the London blackout and in the pleasant English countryside, where every garden had its large, late roses. I have been trailed by the German gestapo in Lisbon and have seen a bullâ€" fight. I have ridden on trains, in buses, in cars, in the underground, and have talked to friendly folk everyâ€" where. have been at a bomber station and have talked to the boys who make the long trips over France and Germany to unâ€" Canadians May Also Feel a Thrill at Glasgow‘s Genâ€" erous Patriotism. Glasgow Folk Thrill to Sight of Canadian Boys in the City Mrs. W. Paterson, 101 Elm street south, this week received a very interâ€" esting letter from her sister, who is an Air Warden in the city of Glasgow, S>otland. There are two paragraphs in the letter that will have a special interest here. (One of these refors; to Glasgow raising over $57,500,000 for the purchase of warships for Britain. With all the other calls upon Glasgow, stureâ€" ly this is a remarkable showing and one that should prove once and for all that all jokes about Scottish penuriousness These are the things I shall write about in the series of stories which will appear in this newspaper during the next three months. Always provided, of course, that the Excambion does not meet an unfriendly submarine or tombing plane somewhere this side of New York.
