FIRST QUARTER UNLOADS - SOUTHERN CITIES 
This summary reports unloads of fresh fruits and vegetables for the 
cities listed below during January, February and March, 1964. Unloads 
for the second quarter will be released in July and the third quarter 
in October. No release will be made for October-November -December. 
The annual summary is released as early as possible after the end of 
the year and a fourth quarter release is not necessary. 
The 1963 annual summary for Southern Cities (AMS-493) outlines on page 
5 commodities reported and specifies those included in general group- 
ings. Factors used to convert truck and boat to rail carlot equiva- 
lents are shown on page 6 of that summary. 
Twoeletter symbols identify Express (EX) and Boat (BT) unloads. Rail- 
truck (piggyback) is identified (RT). Each trailer is counted as one 
carload. These symbols appear adjacent to State of origin. BOAT RE- 
CEIPTS OF IMPORTS are included with RAIL UNLOADS. 
This is a preliminary report. Final unload data for these cities will 
be released in AMS-493 for calendar year 1964. We recommend that these 
preliminary quarterly reports be discarded upon receipt of the annual 
release.
