Pacific Ocean Shippers Find
Speedy Facilities in Panama
Water Route.
SHIP LINES LOWER RATES
Traffic in 9 Months This Year
is Nearly 100000 Tons
11,236,119 in 1920.
SHIP LINES LOWER RATES

Commercial possibilities of the Pam
anna Canal are being thoroughly utilized
by transportation companies and espe-
cially by shippers of bulky products
from the Pacific coast, according to a
report issued by Z. S. Gress chief of the
transportation division. Department of
Commerce. Statistics on the volume of
traffic show that 7.912.757 long tons of
freight were shipped through the canal
during the first nine months of 1921,
while during the entire twelve months
of 1920 the total was 11,236,119.
The important development In this
years traffic. the report notes, is the
increase in intercoastal shipments, which
have increased, while cargoes of nitrate
from Chile to Atlantic and Gulf ports
and coal cargoes in the opposite direction
have fallen off. Not only are the steam
ship lines granting lower rates on ship
ments from Pacific to Atlantic ports
than the railroads are able to offer on
similar cargoes. but they are also en-
deavoring to make their services as
speedy as those Of the railroads
Savings of 25 per cent. in freight
charges are possible by using the all
water route, and oranges and lemons
have been shipped from California to
New York through the canal in nineteen
days. as compared with the average
railroad time of not under twenty days.
II Is stated in the report.
During the first eight months of 1921
5.927 tons OF fresh fruit were shipped
through the canal, all but 149 tons going
to Atlantic and Gulf ports OF the United
States. Before the end of the year 1t is
expected that 100000 boxes of apples
will have been loaded in Seattle for ship
ment to Europe. Other Pacific coast
products transported through the canal
during 121 were: Wheat, 295,055 tons
flour. $4,000 tons; barley, 41,891 tons
lumber. 1851 tons: oil products, 40.7s0
tons. and beans. 5,999 tons.
The division of traffic through the
canal during 1920 by principal trade
regions was as follows: East coast of
the United States. 6,273.05s long tons
west coast Of South America, 4,739,22S
Europe. 3.052.7S3; west coast of the
United States, 2.177.601; Far East.
