In 1937, Mr. Baard Hagen operated a delicatessen in New Westminster, BC. In those days it was customary for the steamship lines to appoint prominent businessmen as their representatives. Since Mr. Hagen was an influential Norwegian businessman with strong ties to the ethnic community, Norwegian and Swedish America Lines appointed Mr. Hagen as their representative.
