The White Star Line announces that It has purchased the ex-German steamer Bismarck from the Reparations Commission for employment in the company’s mail and passenger service between f Southampton, Cherbourg, and New York. The Bismarck, which was in course of construction at' the outbreak of war in 1914, and Is of 56,000 tons gross, is tte largest steamer in the world. She Is propelled by quadruple screws actuated by eight steam turbines. The White Star Line, owing to the loss of the Brittanic and Oceanic during hostilities, was largely influenced in the acquisition of the Bismarck by' its desire to have an adequate mail service between England and America—a matter of national importance —and this will be attained by the association of the Bismarck with the Olympic, of 46,439 tons, and the Adriatic, of 24,541 tons.
