tucky:
The Executive Committee of the
Kentucky Press Association wishes
10 bring to the attention of news
paper readers, and the friends OF
the press, the serious situation con-
fronting the publishers at this time,
and point out some facts which we
feel should be communicated TO you
in our attempt to meet conditions
recently thrust upon us. We do
this after much thought on the mat
ter, feeling that we are acting for
the good Of Both publisher and
reader. Doubtless you have been,
or will he, called upon 10 pay a few
cents more on your jobwork. and in
some instances more for your pa
per and advertising in cases where
subscriptions and advertising rates
have been at the minimum.
In the interest of a free press we
ask you to meet the advance cheer
fully.
There may be ample excuse, slight
excuse or no excuse to advance the
prices on us as they have been ad-
vanced, hut the fact remains that
we are paying from 80 to 500 per
cent. more for our paper stock, inks,
oils, gasoline, metal. etc. than we
did eight months ago.
Paper makers insist that there
must he a cutting down in the de-
mand upon them: that they are
working three shifts a day, and
that at this season Of the year when
they should be accumulating a re-

demand. Large publishers every
where are trying 10 meet the sug-
gestion OF the paper makers by the
strictest economy, in which they
are cutting down the size OF paper,
and granting no return of
unsold papers. Small publishers
have slight opportunity TO econo-
mize in this manner. The Federal
Trade Commission is deeply con-
rerned and alarmed, but so far seem
powerless TO suggest feasible or ad-
equate relief methods. Under ex-
