Famous Old Ship Headed for Scrap Pile
After nearly a quarter century of varied duties, the Leviathan, that transported 100,000 daugh-boys to France and back in the World War, is going to the scrap heap. For three years the mightiest ship of its day has been tied up on the waterfront at Hoboken, N. J.. slowly deteriorating. Now her owners, the United States Llues, announce the will be sold for scrap, hoping she will bring enough for a down payment on a $16,000,000 matecessor. Formerly the pride of the German passenger fleet, she was launclied at Hamburg in April, 1913, un the B. S. Vaterland. Interned In New York at the beginning of the war, she was seized by Uncle Sam. In 1917 her Interiors were stripped and sho became a transport, renamed Leviathan. U.S. notülers parodied this to Levi Nathan. Operated by private owners In the Atlantle passenger trade, after the war, business eventually fell off and she lost money. Above are interesting scenes concerning the ship. Top lett, American soldiers returning from 'France throng her decks. High, a ylew of her lifeboats Centre, the hure ship guided in Hudion midstream by snoring tugs.
