mending government operation of

during the war and arraigning what

paper producers has been filed by

will await action at the December
session.
The report says the federal trade
commissions findings "show beyond
question that the print paper indus
try, in it's greed for excessive pro
fits, had imposed most unjust bur
den on the American press, which
not speedily be had from the Excess
sive prices now exacted for print pa

recent investigation, exhausted every
resource at it's command to obtain re-
lief for the publishers, but has been
able to get only small measure stt;t,G Of
assumed by the principal producers
of print paper and lack of authority
of the commission to enforce it's find
ings as to fair and reasonable price.
1.-The committee, the report con-
cludes, submits to the senate
whether it is better to safeguard the
continuance of a free. press in this
supply of print paper at fair and
reasonable price or whether to per-
nit a further increase in the excess
sive profits of the paper industry,
which the federal trade commission
declares is about to exact SIT, 800
