EXPORTS and IMPORTS WOOL Canada, with the exception of the United Kingdom, is the only impor tant Empire country that has a net import of wool. The Empire as a unit says the Empire Marketing Board, has a heavy surplus of raw wool, and supplies the markets of the world'. In recent years exports of wool from the Empire have been greater than Australia’s gross exports. In other words, the whole of the Australian wool clip may be reckoned as surplus to Empire requirements, the output of the rest oT the Empire being suf ficient for the Empire wool textile and carpet industries. The extent of the Empire’s net exports of raw wool has increased in recent years, owing to an expansion in exports from producing countries rather than to any decline in United- Kingdom net imports. O,f the eight leading wool producing countries of the world, four lie within the Em pire, Australia alone accounting for roughly one-quarter of the estimated world total.. The empire proportion of the total is about 47 per cent. Among foreign countries, the Unit ed States, Argentine and Russia pro duce nearly equal quantities, though in the case of Russia the wool is of an inferior quality. South African production slightly exceeds that of New Zealand, which is double tl^e output of the United Kingdom. Canada’s average of production from 1926 to 1930 was 9,000' tons.

Depression Calls Forth Heroism “We cannot do without heroism to-day. We need courage more than ever before. We have tired of the word depression, for it is a nasty word, but we must face the fact that during the past four years there has been another great contest, calling for the same resolution which your men so no’bly displayed in 1914-18 said Major, the Rev. Canon E. Ap pleyard, K.C., who gave the address. The speaker praised tHe spirit which prompted the cairn on a beautiful and chaste spot, where it could be seen by all. He spoke of the spirit of com radeship which developed among men on the battlefield, and which had been perpetuated. “The message of Nelson at Trafalgar: ‘England this day expects every man to do his duty,’ was written in their souls. They answered the call manfully and today we are gathered here to pay respect to the memory of those who did not return,” Major Appleyard said; “Today, as never before, Nel son’s famous dying words: ‘For God and Country,’ stands out as a‘ chal- enge to Canada’s manhood just as they did at Trafalgar.” Rev.
