ASIAN CREW DISPUTED
‘Black’ Ban On Tanker (N.Z. Press Assn.—Copyright) SYDNEY, October 9. The International Transport Workers’ Federation, covering 70 countries in the free world, has imposed a “black” ban on the Arnpol tanker. P. J. Adams. The ban is intended to stop the tanker sailing until a decision to use an Asian crew is changed. The assistant general secretary of the I.T.W.F. (Mr L. White) told the general secretary of the Marine Stewards' Union (Mr W. Macdonald) of the ban today. Mr Macdonald last week sought the ban on the tanker which is nearing completion at Whyaliia after the Arnpol Company bad announced it would use a Chinese crew. He said the company should employ a British crew, because the tanker was being registered In Britain, and not China.
