Sec. 738.26  Method of storing wool.

    (a) Each warehouseman shall, subject to the provisions of section 13 
of the act, receive for storage in his warehouse all wool offered for 
storage the identity of which is to be preserved during the storage 
period, and also, if he so elects, as provided elsewhere in this part, 
all wool which is to be commingled. Each warehouseman who has elected to 
store in his warehouse wool which is to be commingled shall, when so 
requested in writing as to any wool by the depositor thereof, mingle 
such wool with other wool, if any, of the same kind, grade, and 
approximate shrinkage: Provided, That no wool may be commingled for 
which a receipt is outstanding unless the receipt clearly indicates that 
such wool is or is to be commingled. No warehouseman shall commingle 
with wool belonging to any depositor wool which is owned by him solely, 
jointly, or in common with others.
    (b) Before making any change in his policy as to whether he will 
store in his warehouse wool which is to be commingled, each warehouseman 
shall file with the Administrator a statement in writing showing the 
proposed change, the effective date thereof, and the reasons therefor.
