ix. shipping and navigation.
Owing to the rapid advance of shipping, harbour-works have especially
during recent years undergone considerable development in point of
technique. In several places expensive quays with warehouses and
arrangements for loading and discharging, have been executed. — Sweden does not
yet (1914) boast of any free-ports, but projects have been mooted for the
establishment of a free-port at Stockholm, Gothenburg, Malmö, and
elsewhere. Particulary great interest in the project has been evinced at
the two latter towns, and at Gothenburg a large extension of the harbour
which was resolved on in 1912 will in all probability be made a free-port.
The Statistics of the Board of Trade show that Sweden in 1910 had 260»
harbours, that 331 064 ships of 10 , tons and upwards entered or left those
