Canada's Wood Pulp Supply.

Conditions in the newspaper and book
making business of the United States at
present are OF kind that bring to con-
sumers of paper a realization of the adj
vantages of a world at peace. Federal
officials charged with the duty OF in.
vestigating alleged monopolistic control
of paper supplies are busy at their task.
Newspapers in many of the cities are do
ing one of two things, sometimes both.
They are either reducing the number OF
pages printed, or they are raising the
sale price, but usually the former; and
in concert, city by city or trade by trade.
The difficulties of the hour are not so
much those of finance as OF manufac-
ture. That is to say, it is not so much
detail of the ability of publishers to
pay the high prices which the scarcity
imposes as it is question OF their get
ting possession of the product, without
which they cannot do business. In short,
It is question of fair distribution to a
large number of claimants of stock
which evidently cannot meet national de-
mands, if the latter are to be on the scale
of the past. Hence there has to be re-
duction of consumption of paper, the first
effects of which are reduction in the size
of newspapers, and publication of only
such books as are certain of sale to an
extent warranting publication. Canada $
share in the present production OF wood
pulp for conversion into paper IN the
mills of the United States is such, in
volume and value, as to make 1T be-
yond dispute that, were not the Domin-
ion able to aid its neighbor in this way,
the situation in the United States would
be grave When nation imports Tor
an industry, the annual output of which
is valued at $330,000,000, raw material
making UP 20 per cent of the total i'm
ports of paper making stutfs, it is under
obligation to country that provides the
supply, and that declines to take advan-
take of its neighbours economic needs.
Whether the future is to show con-
tinuation of the same source OF supply
for the United States manufacturer who
thinks he must have the wood pulp Tor
his business, and is not averse to get
ting it wherever he can, to the best Pc
cuniary advantage, time will tell. Ut
tawa is likely to see some great debating,
within a twelvemonth, on the fundamen-
tai aspects of trade as between the do
minions and Great Britain, and between
Canada and the United States. 1t may
come to pass that import rates on wood
pulp will be altered within year. In
any case, for the resources now avail
able north of the line, the United States
journalist and author should be duly
grateful.-Christian Science Monitor.
