Skid-Platform Shipment of Commodities

After outlining the development of the use of lift trucks for interior factory transportation, the author briefly discusses their possibilities for interplant transportation and for use between cities through freight and motor-truck shipments. He shows how the methods of packing and transporting paper have been radically changed in the past two years through the use of skid platforms for shipment, and gives figures of savings effected in a number of instances.
