YOU CAN reach your American
markets from one day to a week quicker via Seattle than via any other route across the Pacific. This because the Seattle "Great Circle" route is from 500 to 1500 miles shorter than those to South Pacific Coast ports. Not only docs this mean a quicker approach to, and deliveries in, American markets, but It means proportionate savinga in your in- surance and interest charges.
Ship via Seattle and take advantage of these shipping economics and sales advantages. Ten regular transpacific steamship lines; complete harbor facilities and four trans- continental rail lines to serve you.
