Wool Demand Continues
Fairly Good al Boston
BY the Associated Press.

BOSTON, May 16.-The CONNER
cial Bulletin will say tomorrow:
Demand continues fairly good
for foreign fine and half-blood
woods for worsted purposes and for
secured domestic and foreign for
wooden uses. Domestic combing
woods are still sluggish, due to the
fact that mills cannot afford to pay
the premium demanded for these
Wools, except when covering war
orders. The price level is fully firm
In the West buying has been
rather scattered and not of very
marked volume, fine woods of average
length and condition commanding
about 81 clean landed Boston, still.
THE announcement of Donald M.
Nelson, director of purchases, o. P.
NJ, that the Government will prob
ably require 259,000.000 pounds Of
wool during the next fiscal year for
all Government requirements, or 49,
100000 pounds more than this year
Just closing, had little effect on the
market. Undoubtedly the trade will
be able to supply this quantity with
out great difficulty, if the tonnage
is available for imports to anything
like the extent it has been this past
year.
The manufacturing situation is
hardly changed. Mills are con-
cerned chiefly over getting out de-
liveries and could take more busi-
ness if they wished.
Foreign markets have hardly
changed for the week. Wool grow
ers and manufacturers will be in
terested in the projected trade
treaty with Argentina and Uruguay,
which lists woods up to and includ-
ing 44s qualities as subjects to be
. considered.
