PETROL SUPPLIES
NO RESTRICTIONS IN AUSTRALIA TANKERS RUNNING TO SCHEDULE (Special to Dailv Times) AUCKLAND, Oct. 16. "There are no restrictions whatever on petrol supplies in Australia," said Mr J. B. Scott, an executive member of the Shell Oil Company of Australia for the past five years, who passed through Auckland on the Monterey en route to a new appointment in Trinidad. Mr Scott said there had been no suggestion of a petrol shortage in Australia, where additional storage space had been completed within the past year. The tankers were still running to schedule, paying regular calls at Australian ports and maintaining the country's fuel supplies.
