Later Career
Turned over to the United States Shipping Board for operation, the ship, once again as SS Aniwa, continued carrying cargo, now under civilian auspices. During the remainder of 1919 she called at Mobile, Alabama; Liverpool, England; and Newport News, Virginia.
Aniwa was laid up in 1923 and remained inactive until being discarded due to age and deterioration during the fiscal year 1930.

Famous quotes containing the word career:
““Never hug and kiss your children! Mother love may make your children’s infancy unhappy and prevent them from pursuing a career or getting married!” That’s total hogwash, of course. But it shows on extreme example of what state-of-the-art “scientific” parenting was supposed to be in early twentieth-century America. After all, that was the heyday of efficiency experts, time-and-motion studies, and the like.”
—Lawrence Kutner (20th century)
“The 19-year-old Diana ... decided to make her career that of wife. Today that can be a very, very iffy line of work.... And what sometimes happens to the women who pursue it is the best argument imaginable for teaching girls that they should always be able to take care of themselves.”
—Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)
