EXAMINATION ON Arrival. The data of information which, before embarking, each passenger supplies about himself, are entered upon so-called »Manifests» for handing to Immigration Authorities at the port of destination. The Authorities concerned then being in possession of such data, it is most important that the passengers at their examination on disembarking should be careful not to make any statement not in accordance with those previously given.
Arrival IN NEW YORK. Passengers are landed at Pier No. 97, Foot of West 57th Street. When the required examination by the immigration officials has been completed and the landing cards stamped, passengers should have their stateroom baggage brought ashore by the bedroom steward.
After having ascertained that all baggage corresponding with the entry on the »baggage declaration» is available on the pier, the passenger should proceed to the Custom Assignment Desk and there present coupon detached on board from the »baggage declaration».
A custom inspector will be assigned for inspection of the baggage, and after its completion the passenger should have one of the uniformed porters convey the baggage outside the custom's enclosure.
Passengers desiring to have their baggage transferred by express to railroad station or local address, will find Express service immediately outside the baggage enclosure.
Passengers are specially requested to claim their baggage before leaving the custom’s baggage enclosure on the pier, as otherwise considerable delay and extra charge will be incurred for storage and in forwarding to destination of any baggage not accompanying passengers on railway.

These representatives will also arrange to check baggage through from our pier to destination, relieving passengers ot the formality of re-checking their baggage at the depot. Transfer charges from our pier to rail depots or steamship dock must be paid by passengers.
SERVICE — Although the war is over, normal conditions have not been restored. Despite our earnest desire to please and satisfy our passengers, circumstances may, at times, prevent our performing the services we would ordinarily give.
We would appreciate it if you would bear this in mind, as we hope to continue to enjoy your patronage and good will. However, there may be instances when, owing to misunderstandings, just cause for complaint arises.
We wish to impress upon passengers the importance of making such complaints to the Purser, or to the Commander when they make their daily rounds of inspection.
