Wool Marketing
Sir, —To Mr Uren’s statements at a recent meeting of Federated Farmers, Mr Bedford, in his responsible role as president, replied with a more sane and informed view than his member. The system of auction, generally speaking, indeed happened along the way, a very long time ago. According to the historical record the subject of auctions has ranged from the spoils of war to the glittering prize of the Roman principate itself. The long history of disposal by auction shows that the solid advantages of this method of realising a fair price have been appreciated from early times. It follows the laws of logic and economics. Thanks to this auction system the liaison between the producers and the buyers is very adaquate During the seven months, July, 1964, to January 31, 1965, New Zealand exported wool to over 30 countries, including such places as Egypt, Finland, India, Mexico, and Ireland.—Yours, etc., ENCHERES. April 29, 1965.
