Houston A Center of World Trade

The busy Port of Houston usually ranks second among United States ports in total waterborne commerce. It averages almost 60 million tons a year. Outgoing domestic cargoes of crude petroleum and petroleum products, carried mainly in tankers moving through the Gulf Intercoastal Waterway, make up about half the total tonnage.

Many tons of seashells, source of lime for the city's chemical plants, are shipped for short distances through the port. There is also heavy domestic traffic in clays and earths; coal; cement; iron and steel products; and raw sulphur, phosphate rock, and other chemicals.

Foreign trade, mostly exports, accounts for about one fifth of the total tonnage. Large shipments of wheat and other grains are sent overseas. Exports also include raw cotton, petroleum products, chemicals, iron and steel scrap, machinery, and lumber. Leading imports are fuel oil, steel products, iron ore, coffee, molasses, sugar, rubber, and paper.

The Houston Ship Channel is the heart of the port. It penetrates some 50 miles inland through the shallows of Galveston Bay to the Turning Basin. Accessible to almost any ocean vessel afloat, the channel is 36 feet deep and at least 300 feet wide. Its banks are lined by many miles of wharves, transit sheds, grain elevators, bulk-handling facilities, and railroad spurs

Houston is the marketing center for an area in which much of the nation's rice and cotton is grown. Large numbers of cattle are fattened on nearby farms.

Houston also is the heart of a major industrial area. Value added by manufacture in the metropolitan area each year is about 1.5 billion dollars. Some 40 percent come from the output of chemicals, chemical products, and refined petroleum. Included are basic chemicals as well as plastics, paints, fertilizers, and synthetic rubber and fibers.
