Transshipments occupy a very small proportion of the total traffic and are limited to goods from the United States and Argentine to Yugoslavia and the Levant and vice versa, in addition to some limited lighterage operations of coal and oil for bunkering purposes. Manufacturing in the free zones—There are no manufacturing plants in the free zones. Steps are being taken to secure the agree- ment of the Government for the industrialization of the free zones. At present there is only the Ford plant in which are assembled Ford cars, tractors, and Lincolns for reexport to Italy and the countries of the hinterland, tobacco manipulating plants and a lumber mill now in process of erection. a ge on IR 25 t5 35 :1 20 72 30 28 32 1 21 20 n Coffee is sorted and cleaned in special depots let to private traders. In 1927, 34,103 tons were imported and 35,259 tons were reexported which amount included some quantities left over in stock from the preceding year. No figures are available as to local consumption, as the quantities distributed in the district outside the town limits figure under the export section of the statistics. In 1913 the total coffee movement amounted to 157.356 tons as compared with 69.363 tons in 1927. Wine was imported in the amount of 68,770 tons and reexported in 46,345 tons. Filling operations into casks are carried out in the free zone by dealers having trade connections with the hinterland. About 22,425 tons, or about 224 hectoliters, of Dalmatian and Greek wines were consumed locally. Shipbuilding and ship repair in free zone.—No shipbuilding or repair- ing is operated in the free zones, all shipyards being within the custom barrier.
