FACTS ABOUT WOOL.
1. There Were five hundred mil
lion pounds of "shoddy wool" placed
on the market in 1919. "Shoddy
wool" is made of woolen rags and
is sometimes respun as many as
eight times.
2. There were one billion pounds
of "virgin wool" placed in the ware
houses in 1919.
3. The nation's mills produced
in 1919 six hundred and twenty mil
lion yards of "all wool" cloth.
4. "Shoddy wool" alone would
have produced .three hundred and
eighty- million yards, While the "vir
gin wool" would hav\e produced only
two hundred and forty million yards.
5. The spinning of "shoddy wool"
and the "virgin wool" together made
the six hundred and twenty million
yards of so-called "all wool" cloth.
6. The stores- today are filled
with so-called "all wool" cloth which
means nothing, since through the
lack of stamping shoddies are sold
as "all wool" by combining with
some "virgin wool," and the public
is denied the benefit of the range
of prices.
-7. In spite of the one million
pounds of "virgin wool" in the ware
houses, - the world produces one
third less wool annually than it
needs, and the demand for new wool
is as great as ever; but the shoddy
manufacturers have thrown them
selves between the public with its
demand for "virgin wool" and the
sheep men with their supply.
8.' Consequently, ' the Western
farmers have been forced to borrow
from 'the Federal Reserve Bank of
San Francisco, and the Southern far
mers can not sell wool at all.
9. Permanent relief from the un
fair competition of the shoddy man
ufacture must be had. If some
thing is not done to stamp "virgin
wool" and "shoddy wool" so that the
purchaser may know the goods, the
sheep industry is threatened.
