October, 1933 THE AMERICAN CHAMBER OF COMMERCE JOURNAL 21 SHIPPING REVIEW Bv H. M. Cavender General Agent, The Robert Dollar Co. Total shipments for the month of August amounted to 127,202 tons. This is a fairly good showing as August is always one of the slack months. To China and Japan, hemp shipments were again heavy, but lumber and logs fell off con­ siderably. There was another shipment of molasses of 1255 tons. This would appear to be developing into a regular movement. To the Pacific Coast, coconut oil shipments while considerably below the previous month were still well above the average for the year. Copra shipments were again very heavy, amounting to approximately 20,000 tons. Hemp moved in particularly good volume. Lumber was also good, the movement being nearly as heavy as during the previous month which was to be expected. Cigars and rope continue to move in satisfactory amounts. To the Atlantic Coast and Gulf, hemp ship­ ments were good. Cigars and desiccated co­ conut were also good, while shipments of co­ conut oil were particularly heavy. Copra was slow, and. lumber ..
