T he bulk of all th e wool in the world will be owned by the B ritish and A m erican governm ents and su rp lu s stock» are accum ulat ing a t a rapid rate. W ar food adm inistration h as on la n d 186,000,000 pounds o í wool left over from 1948 and expects to buy 420,000,000 pounds of d o m estic wool th is year. There is no p ro sp ect th a t an y th in g like thia 600,000,000 pounds will be needed by m ilitary forces in 1944 and the stockpile next J a n u a ry 1 will be la rg e r th an i t w as one y ea r ago.

In the event price pupport agencies are abolished by congress a fte r th e w ar, and w ith a su rp lu s stock on hand, it is difficult to see how a rapid price decline can be averted, unless the policy of governm ent buying is continued d u rin g th e period o f re- rdjusfcment. • • • W hile office of price a d m in istra tion w orries over its assigned task to hold prices dow n, w ar food ad m in istratio n is w orrying over the proepect th a t n ex t faTTf market ing of ca ttle will cause a break in prices which will b rin g d isas te r to the livestock industry.
