JAPANESE STOCK POSITION.
Winchcombe, Carson, and Co., Sydney, report that of late reference has been made to the heavy stocks of wool held in Japan, which reached 82,000,000 lb, about 273,000 bales, at the end of April last. That was a record total, but not much in excess of May, 1935, when the quantity held was 76,900,000 lb. Despite the heavy imports made in the 1934-35 season, Japan was a most extensive purchaser in 1935-36. She has further increased her exports of wool fabrics, the total from January to May being 12,500,000 square yards, 30 per cent, more than a year before. Larger supplies were needed to cope with expanding turnover.
