THE PAPER TRUST.
Congress to Be Called Upon by News
paper Publishers for Relief.

NEW YORK, Feb. 24.-The American
Newspaper Publishers Association,
comprising most Of the large newspa-
pers of the United States, for the past
three days in convention at the Wal
dorf-Astoria in his city, gave thorough
consideration to the sudden increase in
the price of white paper and the rea-
sons therefor. The following resolutions
were unanimously adopted and com
mittee Of the newspaper proprietors
will personally present the same to
congress within the next few days:
Whereas, the price of printing paper
used by newspapers in the United
States has been arbitrarily increased
in price from sixty to one hundred per
cent, without reason or warrant to BE-
found in the condition Of the industry
itself, and
Whereas. it is the common belief
that this increase is due to the work
ings Of trust, therefore, be it
Resolved, that the American News
paper Publishers Association, repre-
senting in this case not only its own
members, but the 1900 newspapers of
the United States, calls upon congress
to make inquiry, by means of special
committee, into the conditions above
described, to the end that suitable leg
islation may be provided to remedy
this condition of affairs in the interest
OF the best source Of public information
provided for the people, to-wit: the
newspaper press, whose interests the
founders Of the republic held in the
highest regard
"Tbe attention of congress is directed
to five bills now pending in the hands
Of the ways and means committee, not
necessarily to aid the passage Of any of
them specifically, but as evidence Of
a great demand for some form of reme-
dial legislation to which the inquiry
we request would De preliminary. We
believe that the entire agitatlona gainst
trusts presents no more concrete exam
pie than this. and your petitioners, re-
lying upon the desire of congress to
legislate in the interests Of the people,
believe you will accept the opportunity
to make this inquiry in the spirit in
which it is demanded.
The newspaper, it is fair to state,
unlike most other forms Of industry,
sells at fixed price and has no means
Of putting the increased cost on to the
consumer. In many instances it means
The morning Astorian. [volume] (Astoria, Oregon) 1899-1930, 1900-02-25

the complete connscation OF profits and
In many others creates an actual loss,
The apparently sincere desire OF all
parties to deal with the trust question
removes this inquiry from the charge
Of partisanship and makes Il what Il
Is intended to be, an inquiry In the
public interest"
