WOOL CONTROL
REJECTION OF HIGGINS SCHEME. BRADFORD'S SILENCE DEPRECATED. London, Jan. 19. The “Yorkshire Post’s” Bradford correspondent, in a lengthy article, draws attention to the baldness of the Wool Federation’s announcement turning down Sir John Higgins’s plan for wool control, discussed on December 10. The correspondent says the Federation's annual report does not indicate what occurred in December. There was a conspiracy of silence at the annual meeting, from which he should have expected the position to be made clear to the world’s wool users. At Sir John Higgins’s request ho (Sir John) will make his own report to Australia. His version might not fit Bradford’s. Naturally such secrecy creates controversies. Obviously Sir John Higgins proposes further to disturb the Australian wool trade and it should have been Bradford’s businses to throw light on what was in his mind.—(A. and N.Z.)
