London, Jan. 28.
Repeated suggestions by Nazi propagandists that the Port of Liverpool was closed during the third week of January are refuted by figures for entrances of foreign going ships, not including coastwise traffic, into that port.
For October, the figures are 169 ships of a total of 596,667 tons. In November, 172 ships of 628,864 tons entered, and in December 199 ships of 618,173 tons.
January figures are not yet available, of course, but in the week referred to in German statements 67 foreign-going ships entered and 69 such ships left the Port of Liverpool.
