Preparations are continuing at the Haifa oil refineries to reopen operations, the London Daily Telegraph reported today.
Cyril Marriott, British Consul-General at Haifa, is expected to leave for London with financial experts employed by the refineries to discuss future operations. Among the principle points of discussion are concessions and remunerations in foreign currency to the British. The dispatch adds that overhauling of the electric plant of the refineries has been completed, and that this installation is now helping to supply the Haifa Bay area with power.
