Faces New Year With
Moderate Confidence
Bradford, Jan, 2.
Thenol trade faces 1952 with moderate con- fidence, believing this year cannot possibly be as difficult as 1951.
The story of the year can best be seen in the price career of 64's "A" tops, a fine-grade Merino with widespread popularity. This grade began the year 1951 at 268 pence per pound, having doubled in price from 181 pence 12 months before.
It rose to a peak of 355d. just before Easter and then crashed, reaching the year's low at 128 pence September. It opens now at 156d.
