WOOL MARKET
MR DEVEREAUX’S REPORT LONDON, Aug. 9. Mr Devereaux, the Australian Wool Council’s representative, reports that the Bradford market is featureless. Topmakers’ prices arc firm and unchanged. The result of the ballot among the workers indicates that a stoppage is unlikely. Sales of tops to Germany arc less than half of the normal quantity. The prices for merino tops arc unchanged. With the resumption of work at the mills and factories in Northern France, a more active market prevails. There have been fair j sales of tops for local spinners’ requirements, prices being unchanged. The export of tops to other Continental countries is practically at a standstill owing to the financial sil..ation. Reports from Belgium indicate that wool values remain steady despite existing difficulties.
