[QUOTE="Mark Baber, post: 40792, member: 79063"] This report appeared in the middle of a series of dispatches from London, Southampton, Antwerp, Hamburg and New York, all concerning the threatened international seamen's strike. None of those dispatches have any direct bearing on Olympic, and the headlines over this column of reports don't refer to her. The New York Times, 16 June 1911 QUEENSTOWN, June 15---The White Star Line steamer Olympic, which left Southampton on her maiden voyage yesterday, notwithstanding the efforts of strike leaders to delay her departure, continued on her voyage to New York to-day. During the run from Southampton to Queenstown the vessel's mammoth engines worked most satisfactorily. -30- [/QUOTE]
