passenger liners after the Presidents Of the
United States It was regarded as fitting to
transform the Leviathan, now undergoing
reconditioning, into the President Harding,
The matter was not one in which the public
could gracefully take hand, even though
the old appellation imaginatively typi6ed
the epic achievements Of the greatest war
transport IN history.
But Mr.. Harding. who alone under the
delicate conditions was entitled to act first,
has admirably realized the historic proprie-
ties. In felicitous request, with which
the Shipping Board has promptly complied,
he has outlined the appealing reasons for
the retention Of a significant name.
One Of the handsome State class Of
Shipping Board vessels now becomes the
President Harding, while the second largest
of the worlds ships, the former Vaterland.
displays the continuity Of its prestige so
valorously won. No happier solution Of
problem in the amenities could have been
devised.

DETER \. Il. WlDENER was the best
known Of all the earlier street railway

He became nationally known when. with
William J.. Elkins, he offered "Boss''

Tweed's reply was that he was willing
to take the money, but did not care TO he

Elkins. president Of the Continental. or
Eighteenth and Twentieth street branch OF
the Union Railway Company.
Peter A. r. Widener started In life NJ n

first money in butter and eggs. Both men
ultimately built vast fortunes out of their
street railway connections and other great
enterprises.
When Mr.. Videner took hold n, tbe
Market street line it was almost swamped
with financial embarrassments. Under his
exceptional management the debts were can
celed and the road brought to high state
of efficiency.
