WOOL FROM FAR EAST
Australia Not in Danger ONLY COARSE TYPES (Received 3, 10.10 a.m.) LONDON, April 2. “Mr Renier’s statement about Japan flooding our markets with wool is not accepted a s probable by people knowing anything aobut the wool trade,’’ says a correspondent writing to the “Daily Telegraph.’’ The writer points out that in Japan and also in China, the grass is allied to the bamboo family, being coarse and hard. On such feeding fine wools would not be produced. “Further,’’ he says, “in Manchuria, and especially in the north, the climate is cold, with snow in winter. This factor alone would prevent the fineness i nthe clip which gives Australia her great position in the wool trade.
“No doubt the Japanese, with their wonderful cuteness, will endeavour to build up the sheep industry and make progress with only coarse wool.’’
