COKE AND BYPRODUCTS 981

8 percent, with a tonnage of 5,096,408 tons compared with 4,732,890 tons
in 1940.
 The total consumption of breeze in the United States in 1941 amounted to
4,651,982 net tons, an increase of 582,289 tons over the 1940 figure.
 The consumption by uses in 1941, by geographical regions, is shown in table
41. When compared with 1940, consumption increased in seven of the nine regions
and decreased in two of them. The largest increase was in the Ohio region,
which gained 25 percent over the 1940 figure, followed by the Illinois-Indiana
region, with a gain of 21 percent. The Missouri Valley region had the greatest
decrease in coke requirements., with a 16-percent decline from the 1940 total,
and Michigan declined 10 percent.
 Table 42 shows where the coke produced in each State was consumed. Although
Alabama shipped coke into the greatest number of States in 1941, the tonnage
was relatively small, as 92 percent of the coke produced in the State was
consumed there. Pennsylvania shipped into 27 States, leading the Nation in
total tonnage shipped outside the State with 3,902,258 tons. Indiana, which
was second highest, shipped 1,935,028 net tons in 1941.
