COST OF NEWSPAPERS

The newspaper publishing business
was as hard hit b. the war and the ah.
normal range that prices took as any

protective measures that were imn1e-
diately applied by other concerns.
This situation. however. has not been
of recent growth with The newspaper
business, but had its beginning some
years back, but the daily paper has
always continued to give the subscrib'
or quid pro quo. In adverting to the
present increasing cost OF producing
the medium through which the news
Of the world is brought 10 the break

crssion Of price hOostrrs.' But. after
all. this attitude was quixOtic in char
