said the increases w ere made
largely to carry out terms of a
wool price support law and to
maintain normal differences be
tween graded wools. That law re
quires the department to assure
producers an average price equal
to that received in 1946
The average price in 1946 was
42.3 cents a pound grease basis,
and 42 cents in 1947.
Specifically', support prices for
all 1948 clip shorn wools, except i
off-graded wools, will be in-i
creased one cent a pound, clean
basis, over current prices to offset
higher freight rates.
