British Wool Trade on
Pre-War Basis Soon
IJOIMIOII, March 28. —The wool
trade of Great Britain, which has
been controlled by the government
since the middle of 1916, is gradu
ally being freed from restrictions and
soon will be practically on a pre-wa„
basis. The only remaining restric
tion will be that the government,
which has bought the forthcoming
Australian clip, will act ae merch
ants and put this on the market
at auctions at fixed minimum prices,
which, however, will be somewhat
elastic as the sales proceed.
The first auctions will be held
in the first week of April and about
80.000 bales are expected to be
catalogued during that month. Bel
gian. French and Italian buyers will
be allowed to compete with the
British trade for supplies but there
will be no American competition.
Mr. and Mrs. Howard B. Emer
ick went to Philadelphia to-day to
remain in that vicinity until the
second week in Aprik
Mrs. Henry D. Boas and her sis
ter, Miss Helen Espy, went to New
York to-day for a brief stay.
Mr. and Mrs. Ansan Barringer, of
Chicago, are in town for a little
visit among relatives.
