WOOL SUBSTITUTE
RAPID DEVELOPMENT GERMANY'S NECESSITY (By Telegraph—l'ress Association.) AUCKLAND, This Day. The development of woolstra as a substitute for wool is being viewed very seriously by Australian and New Zealand representatives ■ in London, said Mr. L. G. Brundahl, Leipzig Trade Fair Commissioner, who is returning to Sydney by the Mariposa. Woolstra, he said, contained about 40 per cent, of wool and the remainder was fibre. Extraordinary developments had been made in Germany with its manufacture, but the Germans did not wish to proceed with the manufacture of substitutes if they could place their manufactured products in fair exchange for wool. At the moment they were faced with the necessity to find world markets for their products. The people of Germany were now well dressed and happy, and there was very little unemployment.
