PAPER MAGNATES
ARE INDICTED BY
A FEDERAL JURY

Department of Justice in February
at the request of the Federal Trade
commission" Subsequently the COM
mission and the manufacturers reached
an agreement in respect to prices.
"The Federal Trade commission in
its preliminary report to congress de-
clared there existed in news print a
combination in restraint Of trade and
that while there was no actual short
age in news print paper, very defin-
lite equilibrium between the available
supply and the demand had been
brought about artihcially in the trade"
Mr.. Colby said. "The grand jury, as
the result of its independent investi-
cation has, in effect, reached the same
conclusion and has indicted the men
whom it considers as responsible for
these conditions.
The Period Covered.
1.-THE prices charged by members of
the association are greatly in excess
of prices which independent pro-
ducers, even under war conditions, are
content to receive. There has been a
relatively slight advance in the cost OF
materials, but nothing comparable to
the advance in prices which has been
made through the concerted action of
the members OF this combination and
under restricted competitive condi-
tons brought about by the associa-
ton"
The indictment states the inquiry
covered the period since December,
1914. The total daily output of news
print paper, chiefly used by newspa-
pers, is put at $500 tons in Canada
and the United States, with value of
$250000. OF this amount, it is al
legged, 5000 tons were controlled by
forty-fve specified companies, whose
trade the defendants are accused Of
engaging in conspiracy to restrain.
The association is described in the
indictment as a voluntary trade asso.
citation composed of firty-hve firms
and having mo constitution, bylaws
nor minutes of proceedings"

Field Marshal Won Hindenburg,
the premier went on, had declared
that German submarines would put
England out of business before the
United States was ready.
"He does not know America" the
premier declared. IL. .'.. ..
He added that Won Hindenburg' 8
prophesy was as false as his famous
line. which we have broken already"
The United States, the speaker con-
tinued, had the noble tradition Of
never having engaged in war except
for liberty. He asserted the present
was the greatest struggle for liberty
upon which America had ever en-
barked. He rejoiced more in the
knowledge that America was going to
win the right to sit at the conference
table when terms Of peace were de,
eided than at the resources it would
bring to the allies.
Il can see peace coming now" the
premier declared. He said it would
not be a peace which would mean
endless preparation for strife and
bloodshed, but "a real peace such as
this old world has never known"
Strange things had happened in this
war, he declared, and stranger things
were to come. Today devastating
war was being waged. Tomorrow
perhaps not distant tomorrow--wal
might be abolished forever from the
category OF human crime.
Mr.. Lloyd George said It would
have been q tragedy for mankind il
America had not placed itself in I
position to take part in the peace
conference, with all the influence ant
power for right which it was nov
winning for itself. J

HOUSE LISTENS
TO BANK REPORT
Majority of Committee Inclined
to Believe State Might Re-
cover for Loss.
CAPITAL NATIONAL BLoWUP


Lincoln, April l2.-lSpecial. THE
house today listened to long reports
made by the majority and minority
members of the joint committee OF
the house and senate appointed sew
eral weeks ago to investigate the
probability of securing something for
the state from the old claim against
the Capital National bank, which
tailed twenty-four years ago, in which
the state lost nearly 100000.
The majority report favored the
appointment of committee to make
thorough investigation OF the mat
ter after the present session has
closed, in the belief that something
could be secured, while the minority
report, which was signed only by
Senator Albert, did not belneve there
was enough chance to recover to war
rant the state in going into the inves-
tigation.
Representative Fultz said that Sen
ator Albert had asserted the statute
Of limitations had run out. He was
of the opinion that Mr.. Albert was
mistaken.
Mr.. Fultz called attention to the lit
Igation of the Jones National bank
of Seward against the Capital Nation
al bank directors and stockholders
and said that after the case had been
UP to the United States supreme court
twice, it had finally, in last April, been
decided in favor of the Seward bank.
He believed there was chance to
win the case in answer to a question
by Peterson as to what chance he
thought the state had, but did not
care to venture a prediction, because
he had not had time to investigate.
