WAR DEPARTMENT,

THE BOARD OF ENGINEERS FOR RIVERS AND HARBORS,
Washington, D. C., June 29, 1936.

Subject: Report on Miami and Tampa, Fla.

To: The Chief of Engineers, United States Army.

1. There is transmitted herewith a report on the ports of Miami and Tampa, Fla., which is a revision of the data published in 1930 as part 2 of Port Series No. 8. The present report was prepared by this Department and the Department of Commerce as a result of the cooperation prescribed by section 8 of the Merchant Marine Act, and in furtherance of the objects intrusted to the War Department by section 500 of the Transportation Act of 1920.

2. In accordance with the agreement for cooperation between the War Department and the Department of Commerce, the material on port administration, procedure employed in handling cargo, port labor, steamship services, steamship rates and rate conferences, territory tributary, and economic summary was prepared by the United States Shipping Board Bureau, Department of Commerce. The remainder of the report was compiled by the Statistical Division of this office under the supervision of Mr. Warren E. Graves, chief statistician, who has devoted his personal attention to the work.

3. The report contains information showing the movement of commerce through the port, the facilities available for handling traffic, and the rates and charges applying against it. Much of this information was secured through visits of representatives of this office to the port, supplemented by data furnished by the district engineer at Jacksonville. On account of the value of the information to commerce and shipping and to the operation of the American merchant marine, it is recommended that the report be printed, with the accompanying illustrations. For the Board.

WILDURR WILLING,

Colonel, Corps of Engineers,

Resident Member of the Board.
