the commission could do but little more than it has done; recommend that the paper producing industry products be pooled in the hands of a government agency and equitably dis tributed at a price based upon cost of production and distribution plus a fair profit.
 Until the government In it's wisdom decides to proceed along the lines suggested. there appears no relief from the high prices which have not only worked a serious hardship to the larger papers of the country 1t have also caused large numbers of the smaller publications to suspend, ow- ing to their inability to reconcile the profits of small circulation to the immensely Increased costs of publica- ton due to the fancy prices for news print paper.
 As the larger portion of the print paper product is used by the small papers of the country, the burden of the excessive profit indicated by the commission report naturally falls upon them and if, as the commission predicts, there are to be still further advances unless the government takes Q hand in the matter of adjusting prices, large numbers of the smaller sheets are facing inevitable bank ruptcy.
 Although the commission was un- able to determine positively that there is combination and collusion to up- hold paper prices it Is unthinkable that the present conditions will he allowed to persist indefinitely.
 Perhaps never Lefore in the history of the nation has there pten great CT necessity for universal dssemin- ation of news than at the present time. and the government should by all possible means endeavor to pro- tect the hundreds of smaller news papers which are feing slowly forced to the wall by prices which the Trade Commission has shown to be largely the result of conditions created by the news print manufacturers assO citation which approach dangerously
 
 eral anti trust law.

A COMBINATION HOLp-UP.

The reason for the present hue and cry raised by publishers throughout the United States over the increased costs of news prhnt paper is sue cinctly set forth in the report of the Federal Trade Commission to the senate, which shows that the news paper publishers are paying fully fifty per cent more for their paper than during the year 1916, for no apparent reason other than that the former competitive conditions of the paper trade have been nullified by an ob- vious combination of paper manufac- turers and pulp producers.
 According to the findings of the commission, the consumption of news print paper In the United States in 1916 amounted to about l,775,00O tons net, and was valued at more than &70,000,00O. At the prices now pre- vailing, the same tonnage of paper would cost the paper consumers of the country $105, 100000, an increase of s36,000,000. or fifty per cent If the facture in 1917 is BIO more per ton than it was In 1916, which increase is designated by the commission as lib- eral one half of the s35,OOO,0OO in crease iB paper costs represents add- tional profits to the manufacturers.
 In other words, the paper manufac- tuners will make clean s17,500,000 more on the same quantity of paper than they did in 1916.
 AS the demand for news print pa per is constantly increasing and gives promise of still greater increases with the continuance of the war, 1t is un- dcniably certain that this exhorbitant profit is bound to be still further in creased unless the government takes control Of the situation, something it has apparently not been able to do np to the present.
 The report of the commission states without equivocation, that the ef- forts made by that body 10 restore competitive conditions and to arbtrate and effectively project a fair price for new print paper have failed and the print paper users are still at the mercy of the manufacturers who can bleed them to the full without let or hindrance.
 Although congress recently called the Federal Trade Commission to account for Its failure to restrict the print paper manufacturers after discover ing evidences of extortionate prices and competitor suppressingg combin- atlons, the commission is not alto eether 10 blame for the failure. To all appearances the commission has done all that lies within the province of that body. Having no fixed powers for enforcing its price fixing decrees

URGE LEGISLATION
FOR SHIP BUILDING
Would Speed Up Construc-'
ton of Merchant Fleet.

Washington. Dec. 2S.-An outline Of
legislation wanted by the shipping
board to provide additional powers for
speeding up construction OF the new
merchant fleet was given today by
former Rear Admiral Bowles. assistant
to the general manager of the emer-
gency fleet corporation, testifying at
the senate committees inquiry into the
shipping situation.
Bowles said the board desired au-
thOrization to declare as war zone
the territory surrounding shipyards as
well as to commander houses and To-
cal transportation facilities so as to
better take care of workmen at the
plants.
He also suggested that congress
should protect ship builders from the
operations Of the war excess profits tax
law or at least modify its provisions
in SO far as it pertains to them. Oper-
alton of the law is so uncertain, he ex-
planned that the board is having great
difficulty In placing contracts at a rea-
sonable price as the builders claim
they will have practically nothing left
from the profits on the ships after
paying the tax.
Replying to Senator Jones of Wash
ington, the assistant general manager
said fear Of the tax law is general
among builders and not confined to any
one part Of the country. Senator
Jones said he had seen kilograms indi-
eating that Pacific coast builders were
anxious to get contracts.

SCIENTISTS PREDICT
LABOR CONSCRIPTION
Discuss This Phase of War at
Annual Meeting.

Philadelphia, Dec. 2S.-Labor's part
in the war was considered in its va
rious phases today by scientists at
tending annual conventions OF Learned
Societies allied with the American His
torical association in yearly meeting
here.
Prof. Karl Kelsey of the University
of Pennsylvania addressing the Ameri-
can Sociological society said that in
many ways the labor situation calls for
immediate attention. The government,
he said, must consider the subject of
CONSUMPTION of labor and arrange for
it's distribution the same as it con-
scripts soldiers.

added, ito treat strikers as traitors.
This must, however, afford no excuse
for low wages or mistreatment of
workers.,
