A 1930 survey by the U S Department of Commerce and the National Wool Marketing corporation notes a sharp drop in imports of foreign combing and clothing wools to 69 000 000 pounds, and 98 000 000 pounds of carpet wools, with total foreign wool imports at 162 000 000 pounds. Domestic mills increasingly use American wools due to tariff protections, reducing foreign wool consumption by 30 percent from 1929. The report highlights improved domestic wool prospects and a smaller stock of imported wools, while also recapping 1911 era notes and local real estate transfers.
