H-alpha emission lines are studied by means of high dispersion spectra of about 30 metal-poor giants. No emission line has been found in stars having a luminosity less than log (L/solar-L) = 2.7, while 2/3 of the stars brighter than that show emission lines. From the data H-alpha emission seems correlated with metal abundance and microturbulence. Some implications about mass loss from these stars are briefly considered.
