CLOSEST ECONOMIES URGED IN
 USE OF NEWS PRINT PAPER
Federal Trade Commission Has sen4
 instructions to Publishers.

Washington, March 9.-News print paper price arbitration. undertaken by the federal trade commission, will succeed. in the opinion of the commits sion. only if publishers practice the closest economies in the use of paper. Blank agreement forms sent today to publishers throughout the country fn- form them that to benent by the price fixing plan they must not only con- sent to relfnquish five per cent. Of their paper requirements, but must agree to discontinue return privileges and must buy additional paper only to meet the most urgent needs.
 The commission expects to go ahead with f<s plans as soon as enough pub fishers come into the arrangement to make it practicable. The prfce-fixing proposal, as advanced by manufactur- CTS, will be operative for six months. The commission has set a price of $2.5o. but in its notice to publishers says this price will be tried, first for three months and then if found too low will be readjusted.
 To insure that shall publishers get paper, the commission Is working on a. plan under which naanufacturers will sell to them first the paper released by large publishers.
