AUSTRALIAN WOOL.

BRITISH REPLY TO THE CHARGE (F PROFITEERING.

The Deputy Controller of Rew Materials in London on behalf of Sir Arthur Goldfinch, the Director, assured an Australian Press Associa ticn, representative that he had no knowledge of the proposed investiga tion of profiteering in wool He admitted that the high current prices | resulted in considerable profits, but said the Government wood was sub. ject to open competition at the auc tions, which appeared to be the farest and most 'equitable way" of disposing of the stocks.

The high prices could be corrected by re-establishing a system of fixed issue prices. Such artificial interier ence with the restoration of normal trade was not desirable, and was also unfair to the Australian and New Zea land growers, who were entitled to the highest market prices and to share in the profits with the British Government. The only cther way of reducing the prices was to prohibit export and eliminate foreign buying. Approximately half the imported If foreign
