A Look at the -.
1851 Wool Market
By GILBERT GUSLER, Marker Analys

AS this observer sees it, almost any,
thing could happen to wool prices
this season.
The short domestic and world sup
ply, coupled with increasing military
needs and stockpiling, especially if
news turns more warlike again,
could push prices still higher. I'm
position of a ceiling at any time
might stop the rise. Or, consumer
resistance to increase in prices for
wool goods, or government restric-
ton on wool for civilian use, or
peace moves which might slow down
stockpiling, or other events not now
in sight, could take some starch out
of the market So much depends on
governmental actions which will
hinge on international developments
that firm foundation for views as
to where prices will go from here
is hard to find.
Whatever wool price change
the year brings. returns from
wool still TO be sold will be
highly favorable. With wool at
Sl.25 pound or higher at the
farm and lambs at $35 TO $40 a
cwt. sheep now appear TO be
top dog" among all classes of
livestock from the standpoint of
profits. They may hold that po-
sifion for several years.
For the western clip, viewing the
market at this time is largely
postmortem, Contracting began
months ago and continued at adj
vancing prices all winter. Owner
ship of most of the territory wool
has already changed hands while it
is still on the sleeps back.
Production Increasing
Domestic production has turned
upward after dropping almost one
half from 1912 to 1949, and, with 4
percent more stock sheep on farms
and ranges than year ago, is likely
Z to be slightly larger this year. Pro-
duction in 1850 was equal to only
about 81 percent of the apparel wool
used by mills.
Mill consumption of apparel woods
dropped from the high level of the
war and early postwar years but
picked up again with the business
boom and increase in military or
ders in 1850. Consumption is likely
to be relatively high this year, but
whether it will be more than in 1850
is questionable.
Military requirements are ex-
pected to increase considerably. A
war reserve equal to 10O,0O0,O0O
clean pounds of wool in the form of
raw wool, semiprocessed or finished
goods has been authorized in addi-
ton to purchases for current needs.
Army takings of wool cloth may
reach 100000 yards in 1851, part
ly for the stockpile, according to a
trade report, and additional amounts
will be needed for other branches Of
the armed services.
Competitive Fibers
Higher costs for wool clothing
probably will give a new spur to
substitutes. Rayon is already g
strong competitor in the summer
suit field and trade reports indicate
that winter weight rayon garments

The army is experimenting with the
use of these substitutes.
World consumption of wool has
outpaced production by stable
margin in each of the last five years.
During the war, with many wool i'm
porting countries shut off from the
market, large stocks accumulated in
exporting countries as well as the
United States. Practically all of these
stocks have been distributed. Cur
rent world stocks in the hands of
mills and dealers are near normal.
While the wool situation has been
growing progressively tighter for
some time, the price upheaval in
the past year developed primarily
out of war and defense activities.
Plans to stockpile wool and goods
in the face of developing world
shortage led to runaway market.
Besides the 100000. OOO-pound re-
serve for the armed forces, the NUM-
lions board was reported in early
winter to be planning to stockpile
35O,000,000 clean pounds over s.
year. period, beginning in 1852. With
world supplies already tight, such a
program would sustain high prices
over an extended period. But, such
a plan may be altered if conditions
change.
Wartime Controls
A growing crop of war time con-
trolls may be the next phase. In late
January, prices of wool beyond the
farm level and goods prices at all
levels were frozen. Later, contracts
for military goods entered into on
the basis of invitations for bids is
sued by Jan. &c, 1851, were ex-
empted up to April l. After the
freeze, manufacturers withdrew Of
ferings of civilian goods, since their
ceilings reflect wool costs of last
summer or early fall.
A special wool price requla-
ton is reported TO be on the fire
IN Washington. It may set cell
ings at all levels and establish
a workable relationship between
wool and goods prices. But,
with domestic prices fixed and
world prices uncontrolled, how
10 get the 20 10 rs percent of
our apparel wool needs that
must come from overseas will
= be problem.
There is talk of the government
buying foreign wool and turning it
over to mills at the ceiling. There
IS also talk of limiting civilian use
of wool if military needs become
extremely large, but the present
military program does not require
such an order.
For the grower wrestling with the
question of whether to sell or store
wool, there is no clear answer. If he
stores, he will be registering his ex-
pectation that war tension will in
crease again, and that government
actions will not prevent further
rise in wool prices. Those who DOM
want to take the chance are likely
to sell at shearing time.
In any case, the fleece is likely tc
be golden for several years. L
will pay well to increase production
to make extra effort to keep WOO
free of burrs and grit, to use soluble

CERESANo on Seed Grain
Protects Early Paintings

Stem rust usually is more severe on
late maturing grain. That's why it
pays TO plant early. When your
seed is treated with "Ceresan" seed
disinfectant, you can plant early
and reduce the risk of seed rot,
damping-off and seeding blights on
your oats, wheat, barley, rye and
flax.

Save Home From Flames

Oakland firemen yesterday after
noon helped to have a home near the
breast of Deep Creek dam, which had
become ignltcd from a forest fire in
that area. The house was being oc-
cupied by Roger Tower, employed as
guard at the dam by the Pennsyl-
vania Electric company.
The fire spread from the nearby
area and caught the back porch Of the
home and caused about $500 damage
before being put out, firemen said.
The interior Of the house was dam
aged slightly by water. Forestry men
had the forest fire under control but
called for help when they saw the
building would be caught.

Korea nor for the greater war that
may come. There is no eXaltation
about going in; no zest-or even
cheerfulness-in the unacceptable
sacrifices; no thrill about this as a
great adventure comparable to that
felt in World Wars | and II.
Somehow the leadership the coun-
try so acutely needs must be found.
1t does not appear to exist among
our public officials. There is no one
in the Administration or in Congress
capable Of galvanizing the nation into
that vibrant unity before which poll
ticans in both parties quail and
which the pressure group" leaders
could not defy. The great hope is that
somewhere in private life there may
arise man with no personal inter
est to promote and no political or
special purpose served and yet able
to make the American people listen
closely and clearly understand. That
is what they need and all they need.
There must be more than one such
man among our 16O,090,OOO.
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1951-04-26

There is no way to dispute these
facts. They-the people-have been
warned, eXhorted, editorialized at,
preached at and appealed to. But
they have not yet been deeply stirred
to the point where they are ready to
thrust aside unimportant things and
concentrate, on the important ones.
And this is not surprising when we
know their elected leaders and repre-
sentatives in Washington remain as
political and partisan as though there
were no crisis and the future was
fair and serene. In addition to this,
the leaders of the so-called pressure
groups" so far from being willing
to make required sacrifices in the ma
tional interests, are clearly out to
hold on to every special advantage
they have, determined to get more if
they can.
TO this end, the labor bosses are
still hostile and uncooperative with

mold them along their own man
power lines. And strikes here and
there are impeding the defense effort.
Also the farm leaders are actively re
sisting any attempt to control food
prices by lowering their govern
mental subsidies and altering the
parity formula under which they have
become particularly favored class"
Moreover, the Administration Office
of Price Sterilization, under Mr.. Di-
Sale, is not functioning in a way to
inspire either hope or faith. In utter
disregard of the lessons of World
Wars | and II an unrestrained and
costly initiation has increased to a
damaging and dangerous degree.
And now the country is caught in
the great emotional storm created
by the removal of General Macarthur
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1951-04-26

by President Truman because of the
formers public dissent from the Ad-
ministration policies. A great many
people in all sections have no conf
dence in Mr.. Truman and Mr..
Acheson. Thousands of letters and
kilograms have poured into Wash
ingtOn denouncing them. On the
other hand, the Democrats in Con-
gress vigorously support Mr.. Tru-
playing politics with the Macarthur
incident The weight of reason and
undisputed facts seem to sustain the
Macarthur removal. There may be
ground for difference of opinion as to
the manner in which Mr.. Truman
acted, but the General himself seems
to have made the act inevitable.
However, this does not alter the fact
that sentiment in the country is
overwhelmingly pro-MacArthur-as
shown by the great enthusiasm
evoked by the man and his deeply
stirring speech.
But after the heat thus engendered
is diminished the deplorable fact re-
mains that, in a crisis greater than
we have had before, the American
people are in a spiritless and listless
state. Their Government is not func-
tioning effectively and they are not
engendering the steam essential to
make it effective. Its policies are
neither clear nor stable Bitterness
and bad feeling widely exist. In
adequacy on high Administration
levels is distressingly manifest. The
morale among the many thousands of
boys and young men who are being
called into the armed services is I'M
deniably low-and that Of their
mothers and fathers is lower still.
They have no taste for this war in

Practically every informed man is in
