The New Zealand Exporters’ Section of the British Wool 'Federation met at Bradford to consider a cable from the New Zealand Wool Buyers’ Association, stating .that wool is now being withheld, and that the brokers’ catalogues are only about 50 per cent, of the allocation. The Buyers’ Association cable suggested certain methods of combating the action of the wool brokers, and asked for the views of the Federation members on the subject. The Federation unanimously decided to send the following reply: “A fully attended meeting of the Federation unanimously reaffirms its previous decision against any extension of the selling season, and urges that the utmosi pressure he placed on the selling brokers to offer not less than twenty thousand bales per sale, Should the brokers’ proposals involve any extension of the season .beyond April 16th, the Wool Federation desires to register an emphatic denial, and to say that the selling brokers must accept the full responsibility and take the consequences.
