PAPER MAKERS
OFFER RELIEF

Washington, Feb. 16.-It was au-
thoritatively announced here to-day
that a number of the largest print
paper manufacturers have submitted
to the Federal Trade Commission
signed statement proposing that the
ommission take certain action which
will be of the utmost importance to
newspaper publishers and relieve the
present situation of prohibitive prices.
An official statement will be made
later to-day.
The action of the manufacturers
follows two days of conferences with
the commission and the proposal was
submitted to Francis ]. Henery, spec
ial counsel for the commission in its
print paper investigation. The manu-
facturers hurried here soon after il
was announced that the federal grand
jury in New York had been asked to
return indictments charging criminal
violations of the antitrust laws.
Report Completed
The commissions report of it's in
vestigation of the news print paper in
dustry is about ready to be presented
to Congress. No intimations of it's
contents have been given but it is un-
.derstood to show that there is no real
shortage of news pript paper as the
manufacturers have contended and
that the paper mills of the country are
in position TO meet all ordinary de-
mands upon them.
Soon after the commission reached
its conclusions and the Department of
Justice began paving the way for
criminal prosecutions in the Federal
courts, movement began among the
manufacturers which eliminated in
tie signed statement which now is be-
fore the trade commission.
When the official announcement is
said oh wi
find that a way has been found to re-
lieve the disastrous situation which
has confronted them for many
months. The course of the govern
ment in regard to the pending prose-
cutions will be determined later.
