Export Licenses for Wool.

The committee suggests a policy of
licenses during the period of recon-
struction. with a prohibition OF ex-
ports to enemy countries for at least
one year after the conclusion of peace
and for such further period as may
be desirable, while exports to neutral
countries would be restricted to wool
available after satisfying the require
ments of the British empire and it's
allies.
The committee says Germany and
Austria are dependent on the allies in
normal times for three-Quarters of
their requirements of raw fax. It
recommends measures to stimulate
production in the empire and also rec
ommends that allied countries take
measures to conserve the supply for
each others use in priority Of other
demands.
The committee recommends that ad-
vantage be taken of India's monopoly
in production of jute to safeguard
for Great Britain and her allies the
supplies of this fiber, and advises an
export dutv on raw tute from Indlr
to all destinations. with a total re-
bate duty in favor of the British en-
pire. total of graduated rebates in
favor Of its allies and graduated re-
bates in favor of such neutral coun-
tries as offer reciprocal concessions.

ments of the British empire and its
allies and to prevent any possible
leakage to or storage for account Of

The committee points out the pre-
dominant position Of the British en-
pire in production of wool for cloth
ing purposes and suggests early con-
1erences between representatives of
Australia, New Zealand and South At

to fulfillment of pledges to the allies
