Wool market report signals final 1943 44 offers
The Country Producers' Selling Co Ltd outlines the final appraisal series opening today and closing on the 30th with an estimated 63 700 bales. Wool in store up to the 15th inst will be included, with many clips shorn 10 to 11 months growth and conditions causing a thinner, drier quality. A 4000 bale offering is planned for the 26th for preliminary inspection. Pitt Son and Badgery Ltd note a Sydney catalogue on June 23 and the following Monday, plus winter born clips due end July in Sydney and Newcastle. Government figures suggest vast postwar relief demand and demobilisation effects will drive wool consumption, with liberated nations likely to seek manufactured clothing, while stored wool is around four million bales as the scheme continues for two more years.
