NEW YORK. September 1s.-The
Publishers Association Of New York
City. at a. meeting to-day. renewed
It's protest against tho imposition OF
any Spccial war tax upon publishers
exclusively: The association, in tn
protest, says:
There Is not n newspaper in the
United States that is not bearing adj
dittonal burdens OF expense by raa-
SON of the war. and we do not know
OF a single newspaper that Is deriving
profit from tho war. Increases In cir
culatton, where they have occurred
do not. at current prices for white
paper. bring Increased profits.
The newspaper publishers recop
nize tho wisdom, the Justice and the
necessity of imposing heavy tax bur
dens at this time upon all those who
are able TO- bear them, and the news
paper publishers expect and desire to
pay their full share of all such taxes
that are imposed upon all businesses.
But tho newspaper publishers re-
spcctfully urge that while they are
deriving no profit from war, they are
necessarily one OF the chief agencies
OF government in making successful
vital policies like. the CONSUMPTION act
and the Liberty lonn: that they have
co-operated with tho government a.
all times promptly and willingly, with
out expense to the government and at
great expense to the newspapers. and
without any advantage to the news
papers. except the high satisfaction
that all citizens feel in doing efcctiv.
work for their government
The policy urged by a few Repre-
sentatives and Senators in Congress to
impose special tax OF publishers.
either by the zone systcm or other
wise. will tend to destroy the business
taxed without compensating advant-

to Members OF Federal Re-
serve System.
In anticipation OF the heavy demands
to be made upon the Federal Reserve
Bank. during the naat few months by
members throughout tho Fifth District,
George j. Seny. governor of the Bich-
mond institution. yesterday addressed
to member banks n suggestion thar
they encourage the practice of having
short-term commercial paper run, not
longer than four months. instead Oh
six months, as. is frequently the case
to-day. This action was taken upon
receipt OF a letter from tho Fedora,
Reserve Board, stating that Ii looked
with approval upon this suggestion.
Tho board advised tn. socal hi.nIs as
follows:
ut seems desirable mat the con,-
mercial banks Of the country should
have In their portfolios a maximum
amount Of paper that can BIO redfs-
counted with Federal reserve banks.
As the Federal reserve panNs can re-
discount only paper which has not
more than ninety days to run. It fol-
lows that IL investments Of member
banks arc In six months paper. On an
average OF only 90 per cent of sucr
paper Is available at amy one timo for
rediscount: but should the investments
be In paper having four months or less
to run. at least 75 per Gen. would on
an average have not more than ninety
days to run to maturity. and would,
therefore, he immediately available for
usc at the Federal Reserve Bank.
Tho board is Of tho opinion tina,
the suggested change would greatly
improve the banking condition OF tho
country. Is the banks would mako u
turnover three times a year instead OF
twice. and the credits which they
would provide would como up ror con-
sideration three times instead of twice
year. The borrower In good credit
would have no reasonable grounds for
complaint and the borrower in doubt
full cedtt would be strengthened by
frank conversations with his bankers
at moro frequent intervals than at
present.
1T Is suggested that II the bankers
OF the country will undertake tins
change In methods Of borrowing ana
insist upon four months paper Instead
of six. tho credit situation will be
greatly improved within u short time
responsible borrowers would have
greater assurance OF credits and the
banks themselves would be in position
to meet contingencies with at least SO
per cent more confidence than under
the existing borrowing conditions"
