The Alaska Steamship Company is working continually, in cooperation with the Seattle Chamber of Commerce and other interested parties, to eliminate this condition through education of shippers to the need for substantial packaging on all shipments to Alaska. To assist in this program, the Alaska Steamship Company now offers Alaskan merchants and individuals a special traffic bulletin covering the proper packaging of those items that have given the greatest trouble. Much progress can already be reported in the improvement of packaging by houses in Seattle, Tacoma and other Pacific Northwest points that have been exposed to the local packaging program. But many suppliers in other parts of the country are not yet acquainted with the packaging require- ments of Alaska shipments. Many of these concerns are still using low-grade containers of inferior material brought on by wartime shortages. Let these suppliers know your packaging needs. Proper packaging is valuable insurance. Although it is of ten possible to recover damage losses through claims, you can never recover the profit you would have made had that merchandise arrived in top condition. Your local Alaska Steamship Company agent will be glad to furnish you copies of the packaging bulletin. Ask him for as many as you need; include specific packaging instructions with each order. Your merchandise should then arrive just as you want it—in first-class condition. Sincerely, F. A.
