OPPRESSIVE BURDEN
NEWSPAPER PUBLISHERS
 FIGHT PAPER'TRUsT.
A Committee Has Been Appointed to Call the Attention of President Roosevelt to the Unlaw-
 full Combination.

New York. Sept. 2l.-Members of the American Newspaper Publishers Association, which met recently at the Waldorf-Astoria. appointed a commit tee and instructed it to call the atten. ton of President Roosevelt to what the Association asserts is an unlawful combination of paper manufacturers and to demand relief from what they consider an oppressive burden.
 The action is the subject of numer- ous opinions here from both sides in the form of interviews.
 Herman Ridder, Presfdcnt of the American Newspaper Publishers' As- sociation and publisher of The Staats Tribune, said:
 This Is fight with common in terest. The printing and newspaper industry is the third largest business in the United States.
 Its future cannot be left to the mercy of a few manufacturers who hide behind the tariff wall and hold 1t up.
 Paper Is our raw material
 , Tn striking at the ta4rin we are do- ing the newspaper industry a kind ness. We are making 1t safe for them to extend their business into Canada without fear of, a tarin war which would otherwise make such an invest
 c. F. Underwood of the Interna- tionaI Paper Company said: s-The conditions Of the paper trade are such that necesgitate higher prices. For paper production is twice as Sxr pensive At present as it was a short while ago. The cost of labor has in creased 50 per cent, wood has advanced $2 a cord. and other articles used in the manufacture of paper have in- creased from 50 to 100 per cent in cost
 'Very few paper manufacturers are making money under the present con- iditions. In some cases they have been supplying orders on old contracts at a, loss. Any new contracts must be made on a higher schedule.
