VIA the Port of Vancouver and short rall haul over two of this continent's greatest railway systems offers you a shorter, more direct route to Canadian and American markets than any other developed senport on the Pacific Coast. You also save time in trarisit through efficient wharf and terminal facilities and port authorities, who co- operate in the speedy discharge of cargoes. The "Via Vancouver" route is shorter and therefore quicker. It is more economical and efficient. Last year, tonnage through this growing seaport totalled 9,559,889 tons. In some commoditics tonnage has increased nearly 100% in the past six years. Substantial savings in freight charges, in interest and insurance due to speedier transit are the rensons back of this growth. Are you adopting this shorter, more direct route to your markets?
