WORST IS OVER
EXPERT OPINION fiE XEXU&E TRADE ' improvement expected in .‘A . SPRING. - (U hi ted Press Assn.—Copyright.) (Received Jan. 14, 7.20 p.m.) LONDON, Jan. 13. Sir William Hunter, in his presidential address to the British Wool Federation at Bradford, expressed the opinion that the industry had weathered the worst of the storms. If a safeguarding duty on worsteds had been exacted corresponding to the foreigners’ advantages due to depreciated exchanges, the industry might have avoided unfair competition. Nevertheless, when the spring orders ,were placed many of the Dondon distributing houses would be likely to turn to Bradford instead of to the Continent. He added: “There may be a sudden fluctuation in prices after the colonial buying season closes owing to the unequal distribution of raw material and the differing circumstances in. the consuming countries, but generally they might expect an improvement.’'—-A.N.Z.C.A.
