Millions of tons increase
in SHIPMENTS!
WHEN the shipments passing through a port increase mil- lions of tons per year, you can be certain that such a port offers unique advantages to shippers. Such is the story of the Port of Seattle...(an increase of from 5,496,000 to nearly 10,000,000 tons per year in ten years, from 1919 to 1930).
Each year the increase is more gratifying...each year more shippers learn to profit by Seattle's unique advantages....chief among which is that Scattle is closer to the Orient than any other American port. You save days when your merchandise is routed via SEATTLE.
+
Departures and arrivals aver- age fifteen each way every mouth. Six transcontinental railroads to further speed your merchandise.
