A Pleasure, INDEED!

SEATTLE enjoys her trade with

the Orient...which, incidentally, is on the increase, and growing every year. This port particularly enjoys the trade of the Orient, because her geographic position with regard to the Orient is unique (a saving of several days) pleasing shippers, cr- porters, manufacturers and Ameri- can customers,

That is just one of the reasons why the tonnage of the Port of Seattle has increased by millions of tons per year over a 10-year period ...that and the mammoth port facil ities available thru the seven great public terminals... modern in every detail, of course! You save in transit time and you save in transit money. when your goods arrive, for rates in the Port of Seattle are low.

Write for particulara...better, ship your NEXT shipment via Seattlef

Seventeen steamship lines to and from the Orient! Six transcontinental railroads!
