British Wool Textile Exports Still Increasing
Despite forecasts in some quarters that world trade in wool goods may be about to decline, British exports of wool textile partly and fully manufactured goods continue to increase, states the New Zealand Wool Boai'd news service.
Exports of tops for the first quarter of 1949 exceed by more than one million lbs. those for the corresponding quarter of last year, and wool yarn exports are almost twice as large this year as in the first quarter of 1948. Woollen cloth exports, at 18,965,000 square yards for the first three months of this year, and two million yards more than in the comparable period of last year, and worsted cloth exports in the same time have increased from approximately 71- to 10|- million square yards.
