Publishers Charge Plot by
Paper Manufacturers.
Editors Serve Notice of Real
War-Federal Probe On.
BY ROBERT j. BENDER.

washington, Aug. 1.-Notice of a
real war on print paper manufacturers
was given by newspaper publishers of
the United States today at an open
hearing before the federal trade COM
mission. The hearing is the first of
several to be held to determine If pos
sible the underlying causes and a
nossibIe remedy for the tremendous
increases in the cost of print paper to
publishers.
Newspaper Publishers association, the
National Editorial association, the
New Jersey Publishers association,
the PENNSYLVANIA State Editorial asso-
citation, Pennsylvania Publishers asso-
ciation, and the Newspaper Manufac-
turers' association, were present.
Price Jumps 100 Per Cent.
That the American Newspaper Pub
fishers association, is preparing
war chest to fight the manufac-
turers and is compiling data tending
to show that collusion and conspiracy
exist among the manufacturers to
keen print paper prices up, was de-
clared by Vice President F. P. Glass,
of the association, first speaker at the
hearing. Glass said general prices on
contracts have increased 70 to 81 per
cent and that publishers desiring ex-
fra paper have been compelled to pay
cent more.
''The situation facing the newspa-
pers today is very threatening" said
Glass. I'VE find many evidences on
the part of manufacturers of concerted
action We are trying to gather facts
sustaining evidences of collision and
conspiracy. We have not the legal
evidence today. We are morally GER
tain it exists We expect to have the
proof within sixty days and possibly
sooner"
Mills Making 1t Cheaper.
Certain mills said Glass, "are
making paper cheaper than ever be-
fore"
]. H. zerbey, representing the Ma
tional Editorial association, gave the
first testimony to indicate collusion
between mill owners.

ply after a minor infraction of rules,
he said. Il wrote thirty or forty
manufacturers and brokers regarding
supplying me with paper. I received
three replies asking for specifications.
After furnishing these, one wrote back
he might take care of me for little
while, and another said he'd tried to
get my contract before and couldn't
and now he couldn't do anything for
me- All three asked me why | didn't

Publisher as Witness Helped
Bare Labor Conspiracy.
Explosion Throws Editor and
Family From Their Beds.

Chicago, Aug 1.-Two bombs, be-
lieved to have been made of dynamite,
were exploded this morning under the
building of the Jewish Daily Fress,
whose publisher. A. NJ. Liebling. was
a witness for the state in the recent
trial of a score of labor leaders
charged with conspiracy here.
At the time of the trial Mr.. Lieb-
ling told Assistant State Attorney Ra-
ber that his life had been threatened
because he had told the grand jury
what he knew of the methods of the
labor union representatives.
The bombs were placed near the
front door of the building. Mr.. Lieb-
ling. his wife and three children were
thrown from their beds on the second
floor. The Daily Press building was
badly damaged and windows in ad-
joining buildings and across the street
were broken by the explosion.
Among other things, Liebling told
the grand jury he had to pay $125
to a union representative before he
could have a broken plate glass win
dow in his building replaced.
The presses were not damaged and
the printing and editorial force went
to work as usual today.
