Federal Commissioner
Says Responsibility May
Be Placed Soon


Washington. Dec. 10. "If the pres
ent situation continues much longer
the commission, ! think, will be in a
position TO place the responsibility
where II belongs" declared Commits
sioner Davies at the Joint conference
here to-day Of the Federal Trade Com
mission and committees of the pub
fishers and manufacturers OF news
print paper.
This announcement was made a. the
close Of the conference, which was
called 10 effect immediate relief Of the
news print situation. Commissioner
Davies. who presided, also announced
that the Investigation would be con
tinuei by the commission.
Frank I. Glass. Of the American
Newspaper Publishers Association,
told the commission that 10 was the
opinion OF the paper consumers gener-
ally THAT there exists some manner
Of control Of paper prices and distri-
button" and urged that, in view %
the fact that "many publishers feel the
publicity Of complaints on their part
will jeopsrdizc their supply OF paper,
the investigation 20 TX the responsible
ity for this condition be fastened"
Speaking In behalf Of the larger pub
fishers Mr.. Glass said
when, early no 1916. the paper man
ufacturers asserted that consumption
was exceeding production, great many
publishers undertook 10 reduce their
consumption Of print paper by reducing
the number Of pages printed. by cutting
OF all free papers, exchanges. returns
and IN many other ways. These pub
fishers were able TO cut down their re-
ouirements very materially, in some
cases eTecting an economy Of from 20
20 80 per cent. the aggregate on a very
conservative estimate being not less
than 10000 tons IN the last six months.
But all these efforts on the part OF
N. publishers have failed 10 bring the
relief desired. for 80 appears that a.
fast as newspapers have reduced their
requirements the output Of the mills
has been cut down by transferring ma
chimes from news print 70 other grades
