Australia will doubt- less follow this up by adopting such tariff restrictions as may be neces- sary to insure the further develop- ment of the industry, which is per- fectly proper. Australia has the larg- est supply of raw wool in the world. If this wool is not made into the fin- ished fabric there, it must be export- ed and worked up elsewhere, and Aus- tralia’s work ends with éts baling and exportation. It should be the policy of each nation, so far as possible, te prepare its raw materials for 1a use, the ability to do which fixes ts degree of self-employment and de- termines its progress toward com- mercial stability and independence. * And while Australia is developmg her wool manufacturing industry, the United States should return to the policy which insures maximum ‘wool production and manufacture here, and that is the policy of protection. With the capacity for producing wooh, and wool textiles possessed by the United States, it is an evil policy which curtails that capacity, trans- fering the industry to lands where cheaper production prevails and les’ ing us dependent upon them for our needs. ’ apes In the middle of July Congress de- ferred action on the subject of en- larging the draft age limits at the re- quest of the Secretary of War, who asserted that there was no occasion for haste.
