The Industry is already Blurted in a email but successful suc-cessful way. That it will finally grow sufficiently to convert the Western wool clip into woolen goods Is only In keeping with the laws of economy .and . good tueincftii. - - - The principle of converting ' raw material Into manufactured products at or near the source of supply has long since been recognized as true economy, especially where the raw material is subject to heavy shrink wwaMeTn BinpplnganQiianuiacTur, ing; like live stock where the loss by Bhrink, slaughter and, preparation of the product Is from 25 percent to 83 percent In recognition of this situation situa-tion great packing institutions now exist near the source of supply of the live stock. " The' wool situation seems to offer even greater opportunities for saving on account of the big percentage of grease and foreign matter which mast be eliminated before the wool can be used for manufacturing purposes. The grease and foreign matter represent rep-resent about 40 percent of the gross weight upon which freight charges are paid.

American Fork, Utah produce about 70 percent (of the total dip. and pull of the United States, anTountlhg lo around "200,006,000 pounds per annum which largely goes to the New England states for clean, ing and manufacturing- of woolen goods and garments. The fair aver, age freight rate is $1.60 per cwt, representing a freight ... payment of about $3,000,000.00 on the year's clip for movement from the source to the cleaning --and manufacturing - center. 40 percent of this amount or. $1,200,-000.00 $1,200,-000.00 U a dead loss and a load stone around the neck of the Industry. After the cleaning, weaving and knitting the finished product Is dis tributed throughout theUnlted States n miii innriir"i ittjiini),l-i.sri i-iiiiwiiiswn 'iiii 'i UTiri-rnrwurii m r -r- and Abroad. Thus Western wool travels clear across the country and the manufactured- product comes back to us In the reverse direction; about 6,000 miles of rail haul to supply the Westerner with garments likely made from the fleece of his own or his neighbor's flock. . .. . - The cleaning and milling of the Western wool crop at our Western and Southwestern seaports would re. duce the rail haul to about one-third of the haul to the New England fac lories and the forward and progres sive movement of the manufactured product from such Western seaports to practically the entire United States and Abroad would save several thous and miles of backward and unproduc tive movement with an enormous sav ing of freight-charges. " It should also be remembered that the United States imports almost as much wool as it produces and that this Importation comes largely from Australia and New Zealand, about 2500 miles nearer to the port of Los Angeles than to Boston, catering a further opportunity to economize in the transportation and distribution of our woolen "products';'" The "United States exports about 11,000,000 pounds of woolen goods during the year and is well to read into this statement the fact that two.thirds of the world's population reside on the waters of the Pacific Ocean. If our great seaport cities of the West continue to grow the foundation for such growth must come from a development of natural resources. Uibor must find employment and the extent of our development will pretty much depend upon the ability of labor to And employment. Climate and ideal living and working conditions are a heritage al the great West and South west and the weaving and knitting of wool and the distribution of the finished product is a natural function of this section.
