Tout, president of the Graziers’ Association, is of opinion that there is no foundation for the suggestion by the president of the British Wool Federation at Bradford that the world’s consumption of wool is steadily declining. On the contrary, there is a tendency of gradual improvement. • It*ss "not unusual at this time of the year, he added, for statements to emanate from Bradford which tend to depress wool prices. The total value of the Commonwealth wool sales during the 19271928 season amounted to over £60.500.000, which is a record by over £5,000,000.
