The Hamburg-American Line (HAPAG)
The Hamburg-American Line was founded in 1847. Its growth to importance was slow at first, but exceedingly rapid afterwards, so that—in 1914—the Company was the world's biggest shipping undertaking, its fleet aggregating more than 1,300,000 gross register tons.
The war and its after-effects completely destroyed the work which it had taken seven decades to build up ; but reconstruction set in at once, with the result that the Hapag is now once more one of the largest and most important shipping companies. Its fleet consists of 155 sea-going ships and 221 vessels of smaller size, whose combined tonnage amounts to about one million gross register tons.
The routes served by the Company's ships once more span the globe. More than 30 regular services are operated to North, Central and South America, to Africa, the Netherlands Indies, the Far East and Australasia. Several pleasure cruises are also undertaken annually by some of the Company's ships, including cruises to the Scandinavian and Baltic countries, to the Mediterranean, the Orient, the Atlantic Isles, the West Indies, around Africa (4 Continents) and a cruise around the world.
The Company's shore organization is equally comprehensive. The Head Office is situated in a fine building facing the Binnenalster in Hamburg. It accommodates, among others, the offices of the managers, the passenger and freight departments, the shipbuilding section, the bookkeeping departments, etc.
The harbour installations of the Hapag comprise Kaiser-Wilhelm-Hafen, Ellerholzhafen, part of Indiahafen, and certain parts of other harbour basins. No less than 158 cranes with a total hoisting capacity of 588 tons are available on the quays for the handling of merchandise. The length of the railway sidings connecting the harbour installations with the network of the National Railways is 10-8 miles.
As regards the other establishments operated by the Hapag in the port of Hamburg, special mention must be made of the Overseas Home, where passengers are boarded and lodged at moderate rates prior to their departure. The large installations at Cuxhaven where passengers arc embarked and disembarked are also of considerable interest.
A few figures may be added to give a rough idea of the importance of Germany's largest shipping undertaking. Since its foundation, its ships have carried 8,1 million passengers and 5,367,000,000 cubic ft. of cargo. The total number of beds on the whole of the ships is 16,500, so that as many as 16,500 persons can be carried across the sea at the same time.
The number of clerical employees, workmen, etc., required to keep the firm's business going, is about 12,700. Of these, 8,600 are employed on board the Company's ships, 3,400 on shore, and 700 act as passenger or freight agents in all parts of the world.
Information For Passengers
New York Mail for Passengers. The New York Office of the Hamburg-Amerika Linie has made arrangements that mail addressed to passengers arriving in New York may be obtained at the principal exit on the upper floor of the Pier. This only applies to such letters, etc., that arrive too late to be delivered to passengers on board during their stay at the quarantine station.
Landing Card. On arrival in New York the "Landing card" attached to your ticket is to be handed to the Immigration Officer for endorsement. First-class passengers will receive the landing cards by the purser during the voyage.
New York Porter Service. Passengers are reminded that the porters on the New York piers are not allowed to ask for gratuities in consideration of the handling of passengers' baggage, they being paid sufficient wages for their services. If, nevertheless, any porter should demand payment for handling such baggage, passengers are requested to note the number plate on his cap and to report him to one of the uniformed policemen on the pier.
In addition, passengers are earnestly advised to direct their enquiries concerning baggage or passage matters exclusively to persons who, by their uniforms, arc plainly seen to be Hapag employees. Failing this precaution, they expose themselves to the risk of being taken advantage of by unauthorized persons.
Passengers proceeding to interior Destinations. Wireless advance bookings of Pullman, sleeping and parlor car accommodation for the journey from New York to places situated in the interior may be effected on board through the intermediary of the Purser.
Sailing Permits for Non-Americans. Non-Americans (including visitors to the United States who intend a temporary stay only) must obtain, prior to their departure from the United States, a Sailing Permit, which must be produced previous to going on board, when the final passage ticket is examined. Such Sailing Permits are issued at the Custom House, Battery, New York.
Further information will be gladly given by the Hamburg-American Line/North German Lloyd, 57, Broadway, New York.
Imported Plants and Soil etc. Prohibited. The United States Department of Agriculture, Plant Quarantine and Control Administration, advises under "Notice of Quarantine No. 37," that plants, soil or other similar materials cannot be imported into the United States, either as souvenirs or in any other category.
Advance Reservations of Automobiles. The Hamburg-American Line has made arrangements with the Pennsylvania Cadillac Motor Service, New York, whereby private limousines may be ordered by wireless to our New York piers for arrival of our ships. Information as to rates and all other details are obtainable at the Tourist Department of the Hamburg-American Line on board.
