WEEKLY REVIEW
SYDNEY, January 27. (Received January 27, at 10 a.m.) The weekly wool letter in the Sydney ‘Morning Herald’ says:—“There was no quotable change in values at this week’s Sydney wool sales. The offerings totalled 47,853 bales, of which 92 per cent, was sold at auction. The catalogues averaged in the vicinity of 20id per lb. The selections were not quite so attractive as the earlier lots. A regrettable feature this year is that a number of growers sold their wool privately in the country' at figures which enabled buyers to make a profit of £6 to £7 per bale. ■ Japan, Germany, and France were vigorous operators during the week. The difference in price between fine and medium wools is not such as adequately to reward growers of fine wool. From July 1 to December 31, 1933, the exports of wool from tbe Commonwealth totalled 1,682,373 bales, showing an increase of 144,291 bales compared with the similar-period in 1932.” .
