RIDDER SAYS
Taft BLUNDERED
Declares He Was MisIed on
Print Paper Schedule.
VICTIM OF DESIGNING MEN

Publisher Tells the President EmerI
can Mills Must Close or Move to
Canada to Obtain Their Raw Ma.
kerial.
Chicago, Oct. 20.--"You were appar-
emily misled by designing men into a
serious bIunder when, in the closing
days of the tariff conference, they In
duced you to reverse your previous at
titude upon print paper, and changed
your notions Of what the Mann COM
mittee recommended and of what the
house of representatives had approx.
ed" Herman Ridder, president of the
American Newspaper Publishers as
ISOLATION, has written to President
TATE, the letter being called forth by
the printing of the full text Of the
presidents recent speech at Winona,
Mimi.
"The Mann committee, after ten
months Investigation, marked by I'M
usual thoroughness, reported that q
rate Of 81 would cover the difference
In cost OF production at home and
abroad. The draft proposed absolutely
safeguarded American paper mills
against the serious Canadian tangle,
which your advice TO the tariff con-
ferees has since precipitated.
"The fixing of the rate on print pa
per at 1915 per ton, which you ad-
yised, has decided the province of
Quebec to prohibit the expectation of
Its pulp wood, and many american pa
per mills must close or move to Can
ada to obtain their supplies of raw
material The country is now in a fair
way for a trade war with Canada ba-
cause of your apparent failure to read
correctly the Mann committees recon-
mendations.
I'VE sincerely trust that you ran
find some method of rectifying the
mistake into which you were led We
fully appreciate the difficulties and re-
sponsibilities of your exalted Office
and we believe you are trying to do
the best you can.
1--WE know that you must rely upon
others for your information. We feel
that every citizen is under obligation
to help you. Therefore We write this
letter to you"
