November 23 1929 - Notable Passengers
The EMPRESS OF ASIA, commanded by A. J. Hailey, began a Pacific crossing upon sailing from Vancouver on November 23rd, 1929.
The ship carried 950 passengers in all classes with 100 First Class, 80 Second Class, 45 Third Class and 725 Steerage.
The Steerage quarters were inadequate to accommodate all the passengers assigned so some were transferred to Third Class and some Third Class passengers were promoted to Second Class.
Many missionaries were among the passengers on this voyage.
Note of Interest:
Karl L. Kitchen, of the New York World, sailed to Hong Kong on this voyage, to meet with his friends Douglas Fairbanks and Mary Pickford and accompany them on a tour of Asia.
