Total for 19 establishments. 
The above list includes only firms which alter the character of mer- 
chandise. Setting up machinery, mixing, sorting, etc., are not 
included, and the success of these particular industries is dependent 
upon the free port. The business is in addition to what Copenhagen 
would otherwise have. 
A recent report received on the free port of Copenhagen states that 
at the present time there are 17 manufacturing institutions located in 
the free zone. The following shows the character and number of 
industries: 
Marble-grinding factory _ _

These fuctories are engaged in the manufacture of both finished and 
semifinished products. 
Stockholm. —Special permission of the King is required for conduct- 
ing industrial activities in the free harbor. It appears that several 
firms have contemplated the use of the free port for this purpose. One 
individual hag applied for and received permission to manufacture air- 
plane barachutes, which are intended chiefly for export. With this 
exception, no definite steps have been taken to establish industries in 
the free port. 
Malmo. —As at Stockholm, manufacturing activities are permitted 
only when sanctioned by the King. The port was opened in 1922, and 
0 manufacturing has as yet developed. 
Danzig—The ares of the free port is insufficient for activities other 
than warehousing. 
Gothenburg —There is a small factory in the free port of Gothenburg 
for the manufacturing of silk neckties and two workshops for the mak- 
Lo of sails.
