been bending every effort to
secure a North River Pier in
New York, but because Of local
conditions and the great do
mand for such an advanta-
geous location, it has been ex-
tremely difficult.
On July 31st the Virginia
Express" locked at our new
pier on the North River (Pier
TAT the foot Of. Rector
Street,. This is a center of
great activity, and is conve-
nient to the majority Of ship
pers-and to trucks.
We have every reason to ex-
pect a great increase in bust
ness because Of this new loca-
ton.
For instance, Monday is
the worst day Of the week for
deliveries to the dock. At our
old pier on the East River we
received from SO to So trucks
on Mondays. On the first
Monday at our new pier on
the North River, los truck
loads were delivered. Less
than carload business has
greatly increased.
Tell your friends in New
York and Richmond of our
new and convenient location.
Stamps have been made
which read, "SHIP THIS

be distributed to shippers.
We are always glad to hear
from shippers with kicks or
