EXPORT OF WOOL TOPS
BRITAIN TO U.S.A. CONTRIBUTION TO EXPORT DRIVE Wool makes another important contribution to Britain’s export drive according to news received from Bradford, by the New Zealand Wool Board. Large quantities of wool tops are now released for export in the period commencing forthwith and ending next November. The total volume is not revealed but it is understood to represent many millions of pounds weight, and.to be much larger than the first post-war allocation of British-comb-ed tops for ‘export made some months ago.
Many firms have received export allocations twice as large as before, arid representative of all types of Dominion wool.
As Britain’s wool tops production was adversely affected by the fuel famine last winter, these export allocations denote that output arrears have been fully recovered, as adequate supplies for home mills are necessary before tops can be released for export. Present allocations are believed to be on a scale which will allow Britain to equal, if not exceed, her pre-war export of tops.
