The Peoples Papers

Debate on the publishers taxes in
the United States Senate this week
was begun by Senator Shields, of
Tennessee, who supported Senator
McKellar's substitute and argued
that magazines and other periodicals
not newspapers cause the deficit in
carrying second-class mail.
"I am satisfied" he said, that
the daily papers are paying practi-
cally all If not the full amount for
the service they receive. Rates on
magazines and other publications
which cause the losses should be
increased" Senator Shields said
newspapers do not require the same
service of the Post Office Departures ent
that magazines>--do. and that they
render much of 1t at their own ex-
pense.
The newspapers really are the
peoples papers," the Tennessee Sem
ator continued. They are the pa
pers which supply information to 90
per cent. of the people of the Unit
ed States. and any increase in the
burden of transportation is an in
creased burden on the people,"
Magazines, according to the statis-
tics. he said, are not read by more
than twelve per cent. of the people,
aud those people are more able to
pay an increased cost.-Exchange
