This photo taken on May 16, 1934 shows the flag of the White Star ocean liner RMS Olympic flying at half-staff, as the majestic French ocean liner S.S. Paris looms in the background. The 45,000 ton S.S. Paris was one of the most lavishly decorated ocean liners of its time and could accommodate 2,500 passengers. (Photo courtesy Ron Janard.)
