SHEEP FOR RUSSIA
LEAVE AUSTRALIA
(Australian Press Association)
SYDNEY, Nov. 28
'l’lie Norwegian motor ship “ThaJatta,” with live thousand Australian sheep aboard for Russia, sailed to-day. She leit only a bare hour before the Federal Government’s proclamation prohibiting the further export of stud sheep became operative. The vessel was beyond the three mite limit, and thus outside of Australian jurisdiction, when the embargo took effect.
No attempt was made to detain the vessel before her departure. An official of the Navigation Department on the wlmrf declared that everything was in order, and he gave the master of the “Thalatta” his clearance. It was ascertained that all but one hundred and fifty of the sheep aboard were flock ewes.
