MARITIME PORT INSPECTION 
SHIP INSPECTION 
The ship inspection has been continued along the lines described in previous 
annual reports. Ships from foreign countries, and also those from Hawaii and 
Puerto Rico, are inspected promptly upon arrival for the presence of prohibited 
and restricted plant material in ships' stores, passengers' and crews' baggage, 
quarters, and cargo. 
The inspection at ports in California, Florida, Hawaii, and at certain ports 
in Puerto Rico has been performed by State and Territorial officials serving as 
collaborators of. the Bureau of Entomology and Plant Quarantine. 
A record by ports of the ship inspection appears in table 38. This table differs 
from the ship-inspection table appearing in previous annual reports in that the 
column which heretofore indicated the number of ships "with contraband" has 
been changed to show the number of ships carrying prohibited plant material. 
In previous years both prohibited and restricted plant material for which a 
permit had not been secured were considered as contraband. Inasmuch as the 
pest risk assumed with restricted plant material is apparently very small, ir 
seemed advisable to eliminate such material from consideration in this table and 
report only ships carrying prohibited plant material. 
Information as to exact quantity not available.
