CEBU
in the island of Cebu, but only a few mines are being worked. The Naga Cement Works, situated about 20 miles from Cebu, were completed in 1922 and have a capacity of 1,000 barrels a day, which is more than enough to supply the Philippine Islands.
Cebu continues to grow in importance as a trade centre. Vessels drawing up to 25 feet can load alongside the wharves with perfect safety. There are suitable berths for three ocean-going vessels at one time and a fourth could be accommodated if the draft were not over 20 feet. Owing to the increase of steamers making Cebu a regular port of call, additional wharfage area is being constructed. Besides the foregoing there are private wharves belonging to the Philippine Refining Corporation, Standard Oil Co., and Asiatic Petroleum Co. The annual total production of hemp in the Cebu district is between 45,000 and 55,000 tons. The production of copra is important. Large quantities of copra are exported, 275,000 to 300,000 tons annually; previously, the local oil-mills bought up practically all available supplies. 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. Work is proceeding slowly with the new reclamation scheme, which will add a large area of reclaimed land to the water-front for warehouses.
