Venezuela Sells
5 Former Italian
Tankers to U. S.
REPEAT SALE!
CARACAS, Venezuela, June 16
(U. P.). — Venezuela has sold the
United States five former Italian
tankers, totaling about 29,000 tons,
for $600,000, the newspaper Ultimas
Noticias said today to a dispatch
from Puerto Cabello.
The ships were damaged by their
crews at Puerto Cabello, April 1,
1941. Some of them were set afire.
After the sabotage, the ships were
seized by the Venezuelan government.
The vessels are the Bacicln Padre
<$591 tons), Alabama (6725 tons),
Dentice (5281 tons), Jole Fassio (5169
tons) and Trottiera (6206 tons).
It was reported that the sale was
made because the ships are not in
seaworthy condition, and the cost of
repairing them would be too high for
Venezuela.
Two other Axis ships confiscated at
the same time have been turned over
to the Venezuela Navigation Co., and
they are to service operating as the
Bolivar and the Pararo.
