A WEEK'S TIME
Worth Saving!
THE great Circle Route from the Orient to Seattle means SPEED FOR YOUR SHIPMENTS. It incans a say- ing of "time in transit" for the mer- chandise that you are "rushing" to American buyers... (a week's time saved is common). It means increased savings on shipments...and conse- quent earnings for you. Thousands of shippers have ALREADY discov- ered these advantages!
Ship ALL your merchandise con- signed to American' markets VIA SEATTLE, Investigate the advan- tages by writing for new "Port of Seattle Information," valuable to shippers, manufacturers and export- ers. BETTER, just route your next shipment via Seattle AND PROFITI
Seattle is served by seven··· teen steamship lines and six transcontinental railroads.
The port of Seattle offers you mammoth port fucilities in seven great public terminals, handling 10,000,000 tons of freight per year.
