Scattle has always enjoyed a geo- graphic position favorable to Orient- al shippers. This city invites you to learn the facts—to obtain complete information of how other shippers are using Seattle to their advantage. The best facilities are yours in the
seven great public terminals... your accommodations from Seattle include six transcontin- ental railroads, serving seven- teen transpacific steamship lines.
