SPEED OF DELIVERY is often the essence of a purchaser's contract. It is always desirable. For who wants to buy goods and wait months for their arrival?

If you would please your customers in the United States, ship VIA SEATTLE... the nearest United States Port to the Orient. If you would save them or yourself money on the shipment, ship VIA SEATTLE. The time saved means dollars.

If you care to route your goods to avoid un- necessary handling... route them VIA SEATTLE for a non-stop voyage across the Pacific.
