classifications. The net upshot of the price trend. due to continued 5-hortue in supply or the raw product and improved demand for woollcrls of all kinds. was a price level in November, 1950 just about double that of November, 1040.

The opening of the Australian Sales at the end of August gave the market a .booet and then an- other "shot-in-the-arm" effect was noted when the New Zealand auc- tions opened. In both cases it was evident that representatives from many countries really wanted wool. What the Korean war had to do with it is problematic.

The Under Secretary of the Army in the United States an- nounced that there was no inten- tion of varying from the past practice of clothing those in the service in 1007c"-wool garments and it was estimated that up to 100 million pounds of clean wool might be needed. but it was made clear that this total requirement "would be spread over I period of -lime. This. added to the demand on the part of civilians who con- sidered it wise to stock up on good woollens before high cost of the raw product became fully reflect- ed in the cost of wearing apparel. was enough to further atiengtther. the prices available to producers of wool and to keep them on the utpward trend in the United Sintes and Canada as well as in those countries that produce wool in quantity.

Recent statistics indicate that Australia, New Zealand, South Africa. Argentina and Uruguay. in this current season, have produced over 00 '7'. of the world's wool and that these five countries were up close to 400 million pounds .over the pre-war average production.

Since there is also an increased consumption of wool in recent years it is anybody's guess at how soon world production will bring a recession in prices offered for the raw product. The new price picture has at least developed a revival of interest in sheep hus- bandry while users of wool Ire allowing progressively increased caution in their buy.inl-
