In these days of freight congestion, lack of cars, traffic tie-ups, and urgent demand, wouldn’t it be good business policy to determine whether your company is distributing from around the rim, or is shipping economically from the center by the ’ shortest haul, at the lowest transportation charges? ' ‘To Executives: " Couldn't you make a better showing if you had a Mid-West at a central distributing point, from which river and rail sight rates to your markets would assure a material saving? Is it good business to ship your heavy tonnage of raw materials from their sources in the: Mississippi Valley to eastern points for “manufacture, and then ship the finished products right back to con- sumers in the Mississippi Valley in the great ’St. Louis trade territory? 4 Isn't ft too much like hauling the goods from the center to the tim of the circle, and then hauling them right back to the center, paying costly freight charges both ways? Is your factory distributing from the rim? Are you paying the , take-it-there-and-bring-it-back ‘ charges? Couldn't you make a better in your balance-sheet to stockholders if you dis- tributed from the center and saved the long-haul charges? IO TM To Stockholders: ‘Wouldn’t you rather be financially interested in an industry which distributes economically from the center instead of the out- side of the rim? Do you consider it a matter of business economy to get raw materials from the Mississippi Valley, then lift them almost a mile high to carry them over the mount to the Atlantic coast? Do you approve such business waste as a substitute for a straight haul on a down-hill course? The saving between the over-, the-mountain and the down-hill hauls means greater profits—and The economical” method would be to manufacture at a central point near the basic material gource, and send it down hill to Gulf c ports for expert. . . The natural trend of tonnage originating between the Alle- gharties and Rockies is down thé valleys to the Mississippi River and out through the Gulf of Mexico. os ¢ ap the/ minutes he'll win a substantial glice it al Sth ° “9 Wouldn’t it be good business economy to’ have a Mid-West factory in St.,Louis, the cen- ter of the great basic material district, from . which the markets of, the great South, South- * ‘west, Middle-West, and St. Louis trade terri- are reached by the shortest route by rail and water? : Any manufacturer whose raw materials are cotton, wool, copper, lead, zinc, coal, ccke, limestone, fire clay, sulphur, salt or hardwood is closer to the source,in St. Louis than in any other fully. developed industrial center in the United States. “No other great industrial city with equal distributing facilities is so close to both raw materials and consumers of finished products. This ideal condition means a two-way sav- ing—a saving to your factory and tp your customers. You pay the freight on raw ma- terials to your factory. Normally, the trans- portation charges on the finished goods are ‘paid by your customers. A saving in transportation charges makes friends of your customers, and a saving on raw .- material shipments is a welcome sound in your industrial cash register. It means either lar- er returns to you, or gives a wider margin or competitive price quotations, Economic distribution does not begin at the edge of things — but at the center. . The savings — dividend producers—result from distribution from a central point in the interior where many lines of transportation meet and cross, and where your markets are reached by the shortest route. . St. Louis is such a center. It has twenty- six railroads to markets in every direction. The Mississippi River barge line facilities give waterway transportation at reduced rates to Mississippi Valley points and Gulf ports for foreign trade—especially Latin America. . St. Louis is a four-sided gateway. Itis not cut off on any side by a natural barrier to distribution, St. Louis Invites Sixteen Industries St. Louis business men are seeking sixteen industries: to manufac- * ture ay boug t_ elsewhere.

If a Mid-West factory would aid in solving your production and oducts whi¢h are not now made in St. Louis and which must be ~ Malleable iron castings There is a profitable local market assured for the desired sixteen types of plants, and St. Louis wants the factories to make the goods.
