light of off-season travel in the Mediterranean. Present-day vacationists gen-erally set the annual escape from their work-a-day world in the Summer months. This has established a pattern from which the majority of travelers rarely deviate, thus causing the transatlan- tic "rush" period in Summertime. In ocean travel this tendency of everyone "getting on the go" in a relatively short period of time is even more serious because the appeal of the sea causes more people to choose sea travel for their intercontinental jaunts than any other means of transp6rtation. Because of this popularity steam-' ship companies are invariably hard put to satisfy all requests for ac- commodations during the peak months of travel, and thousands of vacation-bent tourists are an-; nually compelled to modify their plans.
