Wool Industry in Australia Risks Artificial Silk Push
Postwar discussions reveal farmers and traders debating the impact of artificial silk on wool, with warnings that government subsidies could undermine the wool industry’s independence. The Grazers Association and rural leaders argue that wool exports and prices depend on traditional markets, not artificial substitutes. Public debate also touches rail transport of live stock, with calls for practical improvements and more realistic assessments of cruelty concerns.
