Wool and cattle situation shows marginal improvement
J Sheehan vice president of First National Bank Winnemucca told Silver State that wool growers may see market gains within thirty to sixty days. He advised storing wool at rail points and cautioned against consignments unless growers control sales. Cattle trading remains unlikely before September as shipments begin in July with prices around 15 to 16 dollars per hundred pounds for wool and lambs priced 6 to 7 dollars.

Great Britain's War Debt Burden Seen Rising With Projections
A study cited by Bankers Trust Company argues that Britain may charge about half of its 5.0 billion dollar WWI loan losses to profit and loss. It notes total allied advances near 1.731 billion pounds by March 31 1920, with further 46 million pounds planned for 1920-21, potentially lifting the total to 1.886 billion pounds. Estimated realizable value could offset about 1.0 billion pounds, or roughly 5 billion dollars, placing British debt around 7.0 billion pounds. The report compares the debt ratio to prewar levels and suggests no unprecedented burden.
