after the abolition of the wool tariff,
prices would decline. but, as matter
Of fact, the market today is higher than
was the case one year ago.
This is due largely to the strong
foreign situation. The last London sales
showed an advance of 10 per cent and
closed with every indication for con-
tinued strength. In large meaure the
higher prices may also be attributed to
an overly pessimistic view of the situ-
alton by manufacturers and wool deal
ers In general, and that the anticipa-
ton was worse than the realization.
'ln the main however, the present
high prices and eagerness OF the manu-
facturers for the woods may be laid to
actual scarcity of available woods for
immediate consumption-whet these
high prices will continue it Is hard to
propfesy, but there seems to be no rea-
son to expect any better prices than
now prevail, and of course there is
room for decline"
