PRINT PAPER TRUST IS
DISCUSSED BY EDITORS
New Yorker Declares Manufac-
turerS Are Inviting Disaster
by Their Tactics

SARATOGA, N. Y, July 6-The in.
creased price and diminished supply of
news print paper was the principal
subject of discussion before the repre-
sentatives of the Associated Dailies of
New York state, who met here today
in connection with the annual meeting
of the New York State Press associa-
tion, which opens its convention to-
morrow. John Norris of New York
city of the American Newspaper Pub
lishers' association said in part:
1.-THE price of news print paper COW
ering an annual outlet of 0,000,S00 is
influenced by gentlemen's agreement
which is trying to force an agreed
price.
For twenty months there has been
an obvious effort to restrict the out
put. Within three years we have had
three print paper famines. In twenty
months the print paper makers of the
country have kept the stock of paper
on hand for all the newspapers of
the country to an average supply OF
less than eight days. The penalty
that publishers are temporarily paying
for restriction of output and artificial
stimulation of prices may be stated
approximately at IS per ton, but the
print paper makers are inviting dis
aster by the inducement they are
making for new production"

SENDS F|ANCEE
s7312 AND ENDS LIFE
Public Administrator Stops Pay
ment on Check Given to
Bride-to-Be

NEW YORK, July 6.-The public ad-
ministrator has taken possession of the
estate of Leon Guipon, the artist illus
traitor, who committed suicide in his
studio here last month, and has stopped
payment on a check for $7312 sent by
the artist shortly before his death to
his fiancee, Miss Agnes Foster of Rox-
bury, Mass.
The fact that Guipon had no next of
kin" would naturally make the money
he left revert to the state, there being
no will.
However, it is believed that Miss
Foster, whose father, Albert j. Foster,
will dispute the states claim to the
money inasmuch as the check was
sent to her by her fiahce before his
death.
In letter to his friend Hiram A.
Merrill, an engraver, the artist asked
Merrill and Miss Foster to share the
articles left in his studio. Among these
is some of the best work ever done by
the artist.

ACADEMY
PLAN PROGRESSING
President Alexander Declares the
Money Is Readily Forthcom-
ing for Fine Building
TO ASK NEW YORK FOR SITE
Yearly Exhibition for American
Artists Idea of Organizers.
Plan Busy Campaign
Associated Pressl

NEW YORK, July John w. Al
exander, president of the National
Academy of Design, announces that
more than dozen prominent wealthy
men have shown practical interest
in the academys plans to erect great
fine. arts building and have Joined
with the council in forming building
committee.
Mr.. Alexander says that whatever
amount of money required to erect
the fine arts building-say from $780,
900 to 81, 500, 000-will unquestionably be
given as soon as the proper site has
been obtained and money also will be
forthcoming for the maintenance of
the building.
1t has been decided to ask the city
for a site. Mr.. Alexander says:
New York ought to be the art CEN
ter of the country and Is in spite of
the fact that we have no adequate
galleries for the exhibition of current
works.
Every city in the United States of
any size and many very small cities
already have beautiful fine arts build
ings or are building them. With an
adequate gallery we could have each
year an exhibition to which painters
from all parts of the country would
send their works. 1t could be made
the real American salon. Then the
pictures after being exhibited here,
could be sent to other large cities and
later divided into smaller exhibitions
for smaller cities.
1.-The art patrons who are interested
and the officers of the council of the
academy will meet in October and a
strenuous campaign will be begun"

WOMAN IS SUBJECT TO
MAN, SAYS CHURCHMAN
Archbishop Declares That Equal
Rights for Fair Sex Must
Be Denied

MILWAUKEE, Wis. July 6.-"The
theory that demands equal rights be-
tween the two sexes must be denied
absolutely" said Most Rev. S. G. Mess
mer, archbishop of Milwaukee dio-
cese, in his address on "Women's S
Rights" at the opening of the West
ern Catholic Chautauqua at Spring
Bank yesterday
TT is a mistake to say equal rights
instead of similar rights, for women
have certain rights that men have not
and men have certain rights that the
women have not.
I'm regard to the question of politics,
why should women claim equal rights
What does politics mean? Politics
means the ruling of antions and no one
who understands this would demand
equal rights.
1T would interfere with woman's
calling, which makes her the queen of
the household. Equal rights would de-
stroy her female character and de-
stroy her influence on mankind
1.-THE true solution of the woman
question may be found in religion. In
the sacred scriptures there is a law
that woman is subject to man and that
the man must take the principal place
AS man is the head of the family he
must take the leading part"

FEW INTERESTED
IN POSTAL BANKS
Mail Officials and FinanCierS Shy
of Becoming Savings
DepoSitorieS
CLERKS HAVE A COMPLAINT
Probable That First Test of New
Law Will Be Only in
Large Cities
CLERKS HAVE A COMPLAINT
Associated Pressl

WASHINGTON, July 6.-Since the
passage of the new postal savings bank
law, bankers and postmasters through
out the country have been slow to
demonstrate interest in it. So far only
fifty banks have made application for
designation as repositories of postal
funds and onlv fifty postmasters have
asked that they be authorized to ac-
cept postal savings.
The indications are that the board of
trustees consisting of the postmaster
general, the attorney general and the
secretary of the treasury, will be un-
able to designate the postoffices that
are to receive postal savings for many
months to come.
1t is known to be the purpose of the
trustees to limit designations at the
beginning to offices of the first class,
such as New York, Philadelphia, Bos-
ton, Chicago, st. Louis, st. Paul, In
dianapolis and a few cities in the
intermountain region and on the Pa
cific coast.
1t is predicted that when postmas-
ters and clerks in offices to be des-
ignated as postal savings offices learn
that they will get no additional COM
pensation for the work incident to
handling postal savings there will be
considerable complaint.

UNITARIAN PUBLISHERS
AND EDITORS At STRIFE
Trouble in Church Newspaper to
Result in Starting 0ppO-
Sition Sheet

NEW YORK, July 6.-Strife has de-
veloped between the editors and pub
fishers of the Unitarian, monthly
magazine devoted to the interests of
Unitarianism because of what is
thought to have been socialistic opin-
ions by several of the editors.
AS a result a new publication, the
Unitarian Advance, is to be started.
The Unitarian was started five years
ago by Rev. George NJ. Badget, who is
the local representative of the Unitar-
ian conference of the middle states He
associated with him several Unitarians,
including the Rev. John Haynes
Holmes.
7, Forbes Pruitt published the maya
zine. The objection of Mr.. Pruitt to
the editorials of the Rev. Mr.. Holmes,
on the ground of their alleged radical
ideas, started the trouble which has
developed into one that is financial as
we'll as editorial in character.
The editors withdrew, repudiating
the periodical in these words;
"A crisis has arisen which makes it
impossible for the editors to continue
to conduct the periodical in connec-
tion with the present publisher. We
have made fair proposition of sep
aration and that proposition has been
declined"
