NEW YORK, December 1.-For the
second time within three years Amer
ican engineering skill has triumphed
over obstacles tending to prevent the
giant steamship Leviathan. the>for
mer pride of Germany's merchant
fleet. from going to sea.
The first time was in 1917, when the
great 54,000-ton liner, interned here
at the beginning of the war. was will
fully damaged by her own engineers
to prevent her from being used as
transport for American and allied
soldiers.
American engineers repaired the
damage and made her ready for
trip within a few weeks. Her record
for the war was nineteen voyages. on
which she carried. going and coming:
1S4,253 American soldiers. Singing of
the armistice laid her up.
Then the United States Shipping
Board, her custodian for the United
! States government, began to plan to
restore her to the transatlantic
trade as the premier American pas
senger liner. Fitting her for troops
had stripped her of her former pala-
tial cabins, saloons and dining halls.
These had to be restored.
Charged Too Much.
Her German builders were cabled
and asked for set of blueprint plans
giving details of her construction.
| They consented to provide the plans
for $1,000.O00.
With an estimated cost of $1,000. 900
to $1O,000,000 facing them for restora-
ton, the Shipping Board declined the
offer and decided to make its own
plans. A small army of engineers and
craftsmen was put to work to ascer-

Consequently. when bids were

grandeur and with additional facil-
tiles and accommodations. the Ship

each bidder a complete set of plans
and specifications. These bids will
