PUBLISHERS PROTEST
POSTAL RATE RAISE

Members of the Oklahoma Press as
sociation registered their disapproyal
Of the proposed increase in postage
rates for newspapers provided for in
the war revenue bill The editors feel
that they are about to be unduly taxed
since almost every paper gives col
umns of publicity to governmental en-
terprises, and that the burden OF the
war had already caused the suspension
of many papers and handicapped the
work Of others. The following is part
of the telegram sent to Congressman
Scott Ferris:
Resolved That we, the members Of
the Oklahoma Press Association, while
we approve one system OF postal rates,
yet we must register our disapproyal
Of the excessive and dispropOrtionate
tax proposed in the war revenue bill
which provides for an increase in the
transportation cost of newspapers of
100 to zoo per cent through the in
creases of rates for second-class mail,
which would constitute tax on the
average newspaper VI lipli /" " ="
per cent Of its gross revenue, and we
further protest most vigorously
against the placing of 10 per cent
import tax on the importation of news
paper print paper, which would result
in a still further increase of the al
ready enormously high cost of print
paper; and be it further
Resolved, That this association
call on the mepbers Of the Oklahoma
delegation in congress to use their in
fluonce against and to vote against
the aforesaid provisions of the general
war revenue bill, and that copy OF
these resolutions be forwarded to each
member of the Oklahoma delegation
in the House and Senate"
