Seven Vessels Load at Tacoma

For Scattered Ports

Seven large ocean carriers berthed at the big municipal piers of the Port of Tacoma, Washington, and loading lumber cargoes aggregating 8,300,000 feet of lumber for delivery at ports all over the world was photographed recently by airplane as typical of the activity of the water borne commorce in forest oroducts carried on at the "I-umber Capital of America." -

The gigantic pier shown in the foreground of the illustration is claimed to be the only exclusive lumber pier in the rvorld and is equipped rvith the best and newest facilities for lumber handling. It is 1,200 feet long andr265 feet wide and offers provision for the storage of about 15,000,000 feet of lumber.

Ship-side tracks with a number of convenient crossovers render easy the. handling of cargo by ship's tackle direct from cars to hold, avoiding delays in loading and reducing the cost of handling very materially.

Two of the very latest Colby 9O-foot hammer-head Gantry cranes, electrically operated, having a capacity of five tons each, are used to facilitate the movement of lumber from cars to storage and from storage to ship's tackle. These cranes are so constructed and installed that loaded cars of lumber can pass under them betrveen the supports. The vesels shorvn in the airplane view which were loatling at Pier One are the freighters August, Lock Tay, Artisa-s and Circinus. Those loading at Pier Two are the Baltimore Maru, Dribergen and Gyokah Maru.
