Wool warehouse fight reshapes Idaho trade scene
In Idaho the wool warehouse battle pits Chicago based warehouse supporters against Boston and eastern commission men. Officials claim 10 percent of western wool has been contracted, while the other side says 4.5 million of 8 million pounds are spoken for with prices from 17 to 20 cents per pound. A warehouse influences pricing and stability, with advocates pledging to persist despite opposition and planning to ship wool to Chicago for fair yearly returns.
