OIL BAN TO CHINA GOES INTO EFFECT
Soma Hong Kong shipping firms yostorday were busy cancelling cargo space for thousands of drums of oil formally destined for Commun- ist China.
TUNG OIL EXPORT BANNED
The anti-Communit ver- macular "Kung Sheung Yat Po" reported yesterday in a menuage from Canton that the export
tung oll from Kwangtung has been banned.
The reason given is that the price outside China for tung ult is too low.
Tribunal clerk gaoled
Reacting quickly to a Foreign Office announce- ment from London that further oil shipments to Red China were banned, shipping officials told oil charterers that their cargoes could not be handled.
The oil companies would not say whether the 'bon was preceded by Farmal Foreign Office in- structions to local firms or not. Thoy said they preferred to leave all public statements to the Government.
However, one thing obvious. For the immediate future, the oil ban does not seem to include minute gov- ships' ernment checking on cargo.
