(Received April 9, 9.30 a.m.)
LONDON, April 8.
The Government has approached prominent men in the wool industry on the subject of what facilities are available for wool storage in' the event of war.
The Government aims at discovering where supplies are dispersable, as it considers that ports, especially on the east coast, would be subjected to intensive air bombardment.
The inquiries are "being made informally, almost casually. It is believed ample storage is available to meet any demands.
There is little foundation for reports that the Government is to mak« large purchases of wool.
