PAGE SIX 5.5. New York— If Tut-Ankh-Amen, has been disturbed of years of repose, these shores in his would be astounded at the sights which would greet least of these by any means would be the huge steamship Leviathan, which if he should his voyage would swamp him with its back wash, for upon which the Pharaoh navigated the Nile was but th the life boats on the huge liner. Not alone by the size of the Leviathan would Tut-Ankh-Amen be overwhelmed. Were it possible for him to inspect the vessel, he would find conveniences a: which he never dreamed. Wi) 1) Yi / My As King Tut would marvel at the splendors of this mighty craft, s0 will the public when the steamer is thrown open for inspection, prior to making her first trip to Europe on July 4, as a passenger craft under the American flag—for American craftsmen, engineers and mechanics, decorators and tects American common sense and ingenuity have made possible the placing again in operation of the Leviathan, despite the claim of the skeptical that it could not be done. whose tomb after thousands could but visit royal barge he him. Not the American Dass near it on the tiny craft ie size of one of Wonder Vessel house flag of the nd comforts of Seas, the Leviathan; reconditioned and refitted at an expense of over $8,500,000, will shortly hoist the Lines for operation in the North . Atlantic passenger service. Already _THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE transporting archl- of the Seven huge vessel a United States hundréds of reservations have been made for her initial trip to Cher bourg and Southampton. With the return of the Leviathan to passenger service, after disting- uishing herself during the war in hosts of American fighting men to and from France, the American Merchant Marine will have taken another huge step for- ward in re-establishing itself as a power in the maritime world. The largest vessel in the world, the Leviathan justly deserves the title of Wonder Ship. To call this “floating palace” would be a misnomer, as there is no palace of either ancient or modern king so finely equipped, so elabor- ately designed to care for the crea- ture comforts as is the Leviathan. 1athan Restores American Pres ‘With a length over all of 950 feet, 6% inches, a breadth of 100 feet and a gross tonnage of 59,956, the Leviathan can be likened, with its. accommodations for a total of more tahn 3,400 passengers, only to & floating city, capable of being driven through the seas at tre mendous speed by her huge oil burning engines, which have a maximum of 100,000 horse power. These engines require for their operation 5,400 tons of fuel oil for atrip. 3£ the fuel bunkers this oil occupies before use were filled with gasoline it would run a flivver 26,321,400 mfles, and, at the rate of 10,000 miles a year it would take a driver 263 years, 2 months and 15 days to exhaust the supply. In_ the first cabin department of the Leviathan there are accomoda- tions for 876 passengers; in the second class for 648 and for the third, the most comfortable section of its kind on any vessel, 1,878. Ii addition to being able to carry this number of passenger, amounting in all to 3,402 persons, the Leviathan will carry a crew of 1,276, bringing the total of souls which can easily be accomodated to 4,674. Walker and Gillett, of New York, architects who for years have de- signed and planned the arrange- ment of homes and furnishings for leading citizens of the country, have in their work on the Leviathan con- trived successfully to impart a homieness that will be of big appeal to the travelling American public. o Every conceivable convenience has been installed. The staterooms are equipped with hot and cold running water throughout the ves- sel, while all the higher prted rooms have their.own private baths. Lights are operated from butons at the heag of the beds—as aré the beils for summoning a steward or stewardess. The furniture itself is conducive to the rest and ease that the American desires when travel- ing; soft, downy beds, roomy chairs and lounges; well ¢:Yused lights, tastefcl draperies, appealing colors on walls and ceilings, make ‘the Wonder Ship unique, an American craft in every way. The cuisine of the Leviathan will be of the same exceptionally high grade which has always pre- vailed upon the steamships of the United States Lints. In the huge kitchens of the vessel will be pre- pared foad worthy of the taste of old King Tut-Ankh-Amen himself. During one voyage the Leviathan will consume 93 tons of meat, 28 tons of fish, 3 tons of game birds, about 36 tons of poultry, 30 tons of potatoes, 10 tons of other vege- tables, 8 tons of sugar, 3 tons of coffee and tea, 2 tons of ham, 7% tons of butter, 36 tons of flour and 10 tons of jams. There will be used 12,285 quarts of milk, 1000 boxes of oranges, apples and other fruits, and about 6,700 dozen eggs. The highest standard of service will prevail on the Leviathan, and already a small army- of, stewards tige and stewardess are being recruited under the direction of men long familiar with this work. comforts of those traveling on the Wonder = Ship carefully planned for, but their amusement as well. The spacious social hall of the Leviathan will be the scene of many splendid balls and concerts. Here, an orchestra, under the per- sonal direction of Paul Whiteman, will delight both devotees of Terpischore, as well as those more inclined to music of concert nature. Games of many descriptions popu- lar on board ship, will also be grranged for the entertainment of passengers. A library is also in both first and second cabins. For those who are athletically in clined, the huge steamship {s equip- ped with two complete gymnasiums, one in the first and one in the sec- ond cabin. First cabin passengers will also be able to enjoy a plunge in a large swimming pool, which when filled, holds 118 tons of water. The walker, desiring to stretch his or her legs, will find the promenade deck ideal for a hike. This deck,, glass enclosed, has a circumference of 1,090 feet, and 4.8 turhs about it are equal to a mile’s walk. The health of passengers will be cared for by three doctors and high- ly trained hospital stewards. The Leviathan is equipped not only with accomodations for 34 patients, but a thoroughly modern “ operating room as well. In addition there is WEDNESDAY, MAY 9, 1923 to Seven Seas a hospital for the crew, with beds for 16 patients. . Safety devices of every nature have been instaled on the ‘Levia- than. Among these is a complete fire department. An automatic alarm system, which necessitated the running of 28 miles of copper tubing to every quarter of the huge craft, from the fire watchmen's room; a sprinkler system and ten pumps, capable of throwing 1,670 gallons of water a minute, are among the precautionary apparatus on the Wonder Ship. 3 Other safety apparatus includes: four microphone submarine signals; thirteen watertight bull 3 eighteen sliding doors, hydraulically operated from the bridge; ‘68 life boats and two motor boats. The latter are equipped with wireless. An idea of the tremendous“ task which confronted the reconditioners of the Leviathan in preparing her for service is shown by the fact that new plans had to be drawn up for every part of the vessel before actual rebuilding could be started. This difficulty was speedily over- come, however, and the Leviathan now stands a superb monument to the capability of American mechan- ical genius, bringing back to the Stars and Stripes part of that glory which vanished from the seas with the passing of the clipper ships, which at one time made the.
