TRADE COMMISSION
HAS LIMITATIONS
Tells Congress II Can Not Relieve Print
Paper Situation Without Legislative
Assistanes-Priess Based on Panic
Demand.

Assistance Prices Based on Panic
Demand.
Washington, July 1O--In answer to
senate resolution asking what It has
done to relieve the news print situation
the federal trade commission today in
q statement points to its recent recon-
|mendation to congress that the govern
ment Be given power to assume control
Of news print manufacture and distri-
hutton. Y
The commission again emphasized
what It considers the need for more
power. At one time. IT says, formal
complaint against news print manufac-
turers was considered, but the plan
was not carried out for fear OF embar-
RAISING the department Of justice,
which meanwhile had started prosecu-
tion against the manufacturers for al
legged violations Of the antitrust laws,
as an order insTucting paper makers
to desist their present trade practices
would have afforded no practical i'm
mediate relief, the commission declares.
Prices Based on Panic Demand.
The commission" the statement
adds, again earnestly invites attention
to the serious condition which is con-
fronting the public and the newspapers
Of the country. II q situation continues
where prices are to be paid for paper
based not on cost of production and
fair margin Of profits but upon condi-
tons such as have obtained in the past
and give promise Of obtaining in fu-
ture, where price is based on panic de-
mand.
Some Of the larger newspapers OF
the country may be powerful enough to
weather the conditions which have OBJ
tanned in the past year for an addition
al year, or some may be powerful
enough to secure advantage over op-
position in purchase Of supplies, but it
is paramount that the great body of
publishers shall secure their print pa
per at fair price, based on cost and a
fair and reasonable profit. Such a price
will enable them to continue in busi-
ness and to serve the public effic-
iently."
