for shipment. There are some very valuable and extensive coal deposits in the island of Cebu, but only few mines are being worked. The present total output is about 1,500 tons a month which at present local value amounts to over half a million pesos per annum.
Cebu continues to grow in importance as a trade centre. New wharves have been completed and another one is under construction and vessels drawing up to 30 feet can load alongside with perfect safety. The annual total production of hemp in the Cebu district is between 25,000 and 40,000 tons. The sugar industry has suffered severely in recent years by drought but with the revised U.S. tariff a new impetus has been given to planters, and many abandoned estates are being worked again with success. The produc- tion of copra is increasing yearly and is likely to continue doing so for some years to come. The town possesses a fine reinforced concrete Customs House and concrete godowns line the wharf. Indeed, the major portion of the business district is now built of concrete.
