ITALIAN EMIGRANTS
FOR AUSTRALIA AND NEW ZEALAND
IRRITATING RESTRICTIONS ON BRITISH SHIPPING Br Telegraph—Press Association. Copyright. London, December 19. A scheme calculated to drive British and Australian shipping from Italian ports for the eventual purpose of flooding Australia and New Zealand with Europe’s surplus population in Italian ships was revealed at the ■Orient Steam Ship Company’s meeting by the chairman, Sir Kenneth Anderson. He said that as the crowning impertinence to a long series of costly and irritating restrictions relative to the embarking of emigrants at Naples, Italy now insisted that an Italian medical man must be carried as senior medical officer if the Orient lin?. continued to embark Italian emigrants. This, the chairman said, supplemented an earlier demand that the Orient Line must make an Italian port the port of departure of its shins, -irrespective of the nationality of the emigrants carried, thus preventing British emigrants from boarding a British ship at Naples. — Sydney ‘‘Sun” Cable.
