SUPER PETROL
NO MORE TO BE IMPORTED BY AUSTRALIA. EXCEPT FOR AEROPLANES. By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright. (Received This Day, 12.50 p.m.) CANBERRA, This Day. No more supplies of super grade petrol will be permitted to reach Australia as soon as tankers now unloading this spirit, or bringing to to Australia, have been discharged. The Acting-Minister of Supply, Sir Frederick Stewart, said the prohibiti'on of the use of super grade would conserve the Empire supply of aviation spirit. The prohibition would not apply to petrol imported for aviation purposes and the embargo would not have the effect of reducing the total quantity of petrol imported.
