UNITED STATES s. S. LINES

NEW YORK, April IF, P-The Steamship Leviathan, Queen" of the American Merchant Marine for six years operated as prohibition ship, Is now enroute with liquors for sals on board. The liner is making her maiden voyage under private American ownership, as the flagship of the newly organized United States Lines. Medical liq- uor stores will be available for beverage purposes on the return trips of future voyages.
 Joseph Sheedys, executive vice. president of the new line said there will be no public bar, but liquors and wines will be served to passengers in their cabins, din ing rooms, smoking rooms and drinks will be served with meals, making it unnecessary to purchase whole bottles. The same policy will be put into effect on ten other ships which Paul Chapman recent ly purchased from the United Sta tes Shipping Board. Sheedys also said that the company sought no direct financial gain from the liq- uor but deemed it necessary to offer it for sale in order to put the American vessels on an equal footing with foreign vessels for the Westward trip. The ships officers have been instructed to take aboard supply sufficient for the last twelve mile limit. where all liquor over the medical allow ance will be thrown overheard.
