Motor Trucks and Trailers MUST be de
pended upon to relieve the railroads on the short
haul shipments of everyday business, too. All
consignments routed via Motor Truck and
Trailer not only help to
Relieve Railroad Congestion
but increase the efficiency of YOUR business. By
the use of Motor Trucks and Trailers you assure
prompt service to your customers, avoid hauling
to and from terminals, save possible demurrage,
make it unnecessary to use freight cars as temp

antee deliveries to the hour.
