WOOL CONTROL

HIGGINS PLANS TURNED

DOWN COMMENTS OF A BRADFORD CORRESPONDENT (Rec. Januarv 20, 10.50 p.m.) London, January 19. The “Yorkshire Post’s” Bradford correspondent lengthily draws attention to the baldness of the Wool Federation’s announcement in turning down Sir John Higgins’s plans for wool, control, discussed on December 10. Ihe correspondent says: “The federation’s annual report does not indicate what occurred on December 10. There was a conspiracy of silence at the annual meeting, 'which it should be expected the position would be made clear to the world’s wool users. All the notes were destroyed at Sir John Higgins’s request. He will make his own. report to Australia. His version might not fit Bradford’s. Naturally such secrecv creates controversies. Obviously Sir John Higgins proposes- to further disturb, the Australian wool trade, and it should have been Bradford’s business to throw light on what was in his mind.”—Aus.-N.Z. Cable Assn. ■
