GATEWAY TO AMERICAN MARKETS

EATTLE is over 500milesnearer

to

So Yokohama than any other Pacific Coast port. By the "estab- lished trade route" via Honolulu, Seattle is nearly1,500 milesnearer.

The difference in time is proportion- ate-running from a day to a week, depending upon the speed of vessel. The same is relatively true of Kobe, Shanghai, Hong Kong and Manila.

The saving in time effected by ship. ping via Seattle means quicker deliv eries, less "in transit" time and pro- portionate savings in insurance and Interest charges. Are YOU enjoying ↑ these advantages?
