ATLAS EFFICIENCY
and DISTRIBUTION
Insure Building Economy
THE cheapest of all products under
going a complete manufacturing proc
ess is made available through simplified
economical distribution to the user.
Between the Atla? plants and the user
there is but one distributor ? the building
material dealer ? and the directness qf this
marketing serves to bring Atlas to the
buying public cheaper than any other
method devised.
The Atlas dealer with his. warehouse and
yard storage safeguards buildingoperations
through an ample supply of materials, and
with his trucks and general facilities he can
make prompt emergency deliveries. Back
of the Atlas dealer is the Atlas reserve
storage, capacity, greater than the output
of the entire nation twenty years ago. _ ,
Thus, the one building material having
the widest variety of uses, making possible
rapid construction and providing fire
safety and permanence for any building, ia
brought to the user a few bags, or thou
sands of bags, through a distribution
method that sustains building economy.
As\ your dealer for
Atlas Building Helps
Through its dealer, Atlas supplies frefe
books on concrete construction, written
by Atlas Engineers recognized nationally
as authorities. You are also invited to con
suit these Engineers on any building
problem without charge. -
If your dealer can't supply the book you
want, write our nearest office.
IN a period of advancing costs, the price of Atlas has remained consistently low. Today it ia
cheaper than it was thirty years ago. All Atlas plants, operating under one central control,
make only one grade of Portland Cement ? the best that science and skill can produce ? and
every member of the operating group takes pride in helping to maintain Atlas as ?
