STABILITY COMES
IN WOOL MARKET
Utah SECRETARY OF NATIONAL
WOOL GROWERS ASSOCIATION
RETURNS FROM CAPITAL
Reaction In Market Line to Bring Wool
Business Back to Former Days;
No More Free Wool to
Be Admitted to Country

Salt Lake-WOOlmen throughout the
limited States have every reason to re-
ioice, according to Frank X. Marshall,
secretary Of the National WOolgrOwers'
association, who has returned to Salt
Lake from Washington, D. c. The mar
ket has reacted strongly to the assur-
ence that no more free wool now can
be admitted to the country under the
present administration through the I'M
orecedented action of both houses in
extending the emergency tariff law un-
III the regular tariff bill can be passed.
"This puts the market in position
of stability" said Mr.. Marshall Thurs
Law. Until this action was taken there
was always the possibility Of period
Of free wool. There is huge quantity
of foreign wool in bonded warehouses
at ports of entry. If one hour elapsed
admitting free wool there would have
been a great flood.
zone small importer said that one
hour of free wool would have netted
him $4,000 The action Of congress
shows the governments interest In the
agriculture of the country. 1t shows
an appreciation of keeping our farms,
herds and flOcks in condition to sup
ply our requirements.
"prices have been improving grad
ually for several weeks. Now the I'M
certainty is removed, things are back
to the basis of demand in relation to
supply and possible imports. While
the emergency tariff remains, grease
woods must pay Is cents per pound !:
skirted woods 80 cents, and secured
woods, As cents.
According to the department Of ag-
riculture's report Issued on September
NO the amount Of wool on hand in the
country Is four hundred million pounds,
which is much less than many believ-
ed
This Is a very little more than the
normal stock for this time Of the year.
Wool is being consumed in this eoun-
try Mt rapid rate. Most Of the larg-
er mills have orders that will last only
until February. 1t seems certain that
the wool market must take q pro-
nounced upward tendency.
"The woolgrOwers were the first
ones to feel the deflntion Of May, 1920,
and 1t seems now as II they would he
the first to recover. The regular tar
ID bill will be passed to the satisfac-
ton Of the wOOlgrowers."
Mr.. Marshall was one Of the COM
mlttee OF leading woolmen and agri-
culturists OF the United States who ap-
peared before the senate finance com.
mittee to urge the immediate extern
tion OF the emergency tariff br1l until
the passage Of the regular tariff bill

Washington is practically over. All

despite present superficial quarrels and

today. These results will be:
/. The Limitation Of naval construc-

4. In some way. not yet quite clear,
the elimination of the Anglo-Japanese
alliance
The price of the first achievement
Is the surrender by the United States
OF the power placed In It's hands by
the last war to become the supreme
naval country of the world.
The price of the second result will
be the recognition Of the special rights
and interests Of japan in all OF the far

such recognition duly testified to by the
surrender on the part Il Great Brit
