Settlement por appraised wool and rabbit skins in Australia
Woolgrowers weigh options as appraisals near completion and a possible 10 percent government retention. The British government may devise a method to rectify minor appraisal disparities before the new clip arrives. Interim dividends could be considered depending on pool performance, with outcomes tied to Austrian clip prices. Rabbit and rabbit skin controls may end, allowing trappers to sell skins to the highest bidder. Printed in Bombala Times.
