HOLD DOWN
Your Cost of Shipping
COMPETITION is keen these days. Merchandise must move faster. Your merchandise, to earn the profit to which you are entitled, should be routed VIA SEATTLE, if you are to successfully hold down YOUR cost of shipping.
The savings occur in time-(Seattle is several days nearer the Orient than other American ports).., and consequent expense. The quicker your goods arrive at their American destination, the sooner your pay- ment will be returned to you...PRO- VIDING, of course, that it, too, is mailed VIA SHATTLE.
Mammoth part facilities in seven grent public terminals handling 10.- 000,000 tone of freight per year,
Seventeen transpacific steamship line-six transcontinental railroads.
Write for new "Port of Seattle in- formation"-- valuable to shippers, exporters, manufacturers... free on request.
