Scrap Metal Shipment Held Up
In Manila
Manila, May 15.
CHINA MAIL
Loading of scrap metal on board a Formosan registered ship, the ss Saiyu, was halted in Batangas Bay last Saturday by Military Intelli- gence agents, the Philippines National Defence Department said today.
A spokesman for the Department said the cargo had been cleared several months ago before passage of new laws prohibiting the export from the Philippines of strate gie materiais. He said the loading was halted while the Justice Department investigates whether the shipment is legal at the present time.
