SPEECH STARTS FEDERAL
PROBE FOR PAPER TRUST

New York. Jan. 5.-Herman Ridder,
president of the American Newspaper
Publishers Association, on December
invited the attention of Attorney Gen.
eral Wickershau. to statements made
at banquet of paper dealers in New
York in which it was claimed by rep
resentatives Of the International Paper
Company that the president of the In
ternational Paper and Pulp Associa
ton, A. Charles Atkins, was advising
paper mills what paper prices should
be. The attorney general referred the
matter to United States Attorney Wise,
of New York, who asked for specifca-
tions AS result of that request, John
Norris, chairman of the committee on
paper of the publishers association,
has submitted detailed data purporting
to cover the following matters:
1. Restriction of 46 news print mills
in use OF news print representation
that make impossible either an open
market or public quotations of paper
prices.
2. Action of news print paper mills
east Of thu Rocky mountains in refus-
ing to sell f. o. b. mill for spot cash or
in quoting excessive prices, because,
presumably, it would interfere with a
gentlemen S agreement. :"
8. Refusal of many news print pa
per houses to sell other than 32-pound
paper.
q. Restrictions of contracts by many
mills to one year periods and inclusion
of wrappers on rolls in actual gross
weight to be paid for.
Collection by American Paper &
Pulp Association Of daily reports from
practically all news print paper mills
information that apparently has been
used as basis for concerted action in
regulating prices.
6. 'Trade customs" adopted by pa
per makers and used by them as basis
for concerted action in regulating
prices.
Z. Meetings of paper mapkers to dis
cuss prices.
8. Reported agreement upon news
print paper prices by two large paper
making concerns.
9. Action that seems to be in con-
tempt of court by former members Of
the General Paper Company and of the
fiber and manila pool, through disre-
gard of instructions of prohibition.
