A' gray fleet of forty-eight 1 war-built uncompleted, wooden cargo vessels tugs idly at Its moorings in Lake Union, near the heart of Seattle.

"Ships that didn't get a chance" they have been called, as the - war which rushed them onto the ways and into the water, ended before '. they reached the seas to do their share in forming a part of "Pershing's Bridge" to carry American men and supplies across the Atlantic to France. Side by side the ships lie, most, of them in a long row near one of Seat tle's lake boulevards. After being launched at various northwest yards, several at formal exercises, the ships one by one. were towed to Lake Union to wait for the day when they will . be completed and set to sail the seven seas.
