WOOLLEN INDUSTRY
POST-WAR CONTKOIj PROSPECTS In England it is recognised that control of the wool and mill industry will be necessary for a period after the war, but it is generally considered that business must be freed from control as soon as possible, state Winchcombe, Carson, Ltd., wool brokers, Sydney. . Writing on the subject, an authority states that the United Kingdom's greatness has been built up by men, not by officialdom, by individuals risking their all, not Government officials risking nothing. Stability in prices, it is .considered, could be better achieved by a small expert committee conferring with a similar body from producing countries rather than by a Government board. Those bodies of men would.be thoroughly acquainted with their own particular branches of industry. In viewing that English suggestion it is necessary to recognise that the fortunes of the manufacturer have been just as much injured by the "ups and downs" in wool prices as the welfare of growers, regardless of whether we agree or disagree with the suggested marketing methods.
