The new crane will serve wharves 23through 31 and the Port of Houston’snew million dollar container marshal-ling yard located hehind open wharf29, as well as two privately ownedmarshalling yards also located behindthe afore-mentioned docks.

In both foreign and domestic con-tainers moved during the first half ofthe year, the Port recorded a total of23,208 loaded 20-foot or equivalentcontainers. These figures do not includeempty containers handled, eight andten-foot units or the household van-typecontainers.

The foreign trade statistics for tirefirst half of 1971 showed that containerexports exceeded container imports bya margin of 6,526 units to 4,215, signi-ficant in light of the United States’ cur-rent balance of payments prohlems.
