Japan Wool Price Impact Questioned by Australian Leader
Acting Prime Minister Dr Page states there is no evidence that Australia's wool market was materially damaged by Japan's absence from late 1936 sales. He cites Japanese and Australian journals, noting that price rises in January reflect broader market dynamics, with shifts in demand across New Zealand, South Africa, and South America rather than a direct Japanese loss to Australia.

Wisdom quotes close the piece, referencing patience and medicine.
