Wit Hong Kong nov. 9 up the seven Ming Sung ships which have stir red prolonged controversy in Canada now Are lying Idle and useless on China s Pearl River behind the Iron cur Tain at Canton. Reliable reports indicate that communist authorities have found the ships of no use to them and the vessels built in Canada with a federally backed Bank loan Are rusting away.
