NE wSPAPERS FACE
MOST SERIOUS CRISIS
HOW NEWS PRirT AND POSTAL
INCREASES ARE mErAcrsc
THEIR EXISTENCE.


newspapers 81 this country are fac
ing the most serious crises Of their
existence" said Victor ". Hanson.
publisher Of the Birmingham. News.
and chairman Of the executive com.
mittee Of the Southern Newspaper
Publishers association.
II have just come back from Ashe-
Vile. N. c.. where the Southern News
paper Publishers association held its
annual meeting and I want TO tell
you the situation is really serious.
For three solid days nearly a hun
dred newspaper men-it was the most
largely attended meeting in the his
tory Of the northumberland and
discussed and resolved. trying to find
the solution for the problem. The
newspapers are up against the propo-
sition Of vastly increased expenses
along every line, a price for white
paper-whiehr. is the greatest sinsie
expense in issuing a newspaper---l
nearly double what il was two years
age. Increased labor cost. higher prices
for metal and machinery Tor ink. oil
and everything else that goes into the
making OF newspaper.
on July l. the new, postal law.
which places frightful tax on news
papers, went. into effect; freight ratss
have just been advanced rs psr. cent. 4
and so on through tho list. $50
what to do about u all was the
burden Of the Asheville meeting. Il
was recognized that newspapers that
have been showing handsome profit
are going 70 show a deficit. while
those that have been lust a little bet
ter than making expenses will have
hard shedding to get through il all.
"The wisest publishers in the land
are racking their brains about how
to maintain the quality Of their pap
ers and still manage 10 show q fair
margin OF profit without raising the
price beyond the reach of the aver
age citizen.
I'You take our own case with the
News. The operating expenses for
the News for May, 1917, were $780,
740.s1. while for May. 1918, they
we're S47.s25.42, while for June,
1918. il passed the $50 900 mark.
There is an increase Of nearly 30 l-3
per cent. for May this year. and more
than 40 per cent. increase for June.
"ln the meantime. a 10 per cent.
advance in advertising rates had gone
into effect May I. 1918. but 10 per
cent. lacks a lot OF making up for an
increase cost OF more than 40 per
cent.
In 1916 the newspapers OF the
country were paying under cents
at the mill Tor white paper During
the greater part OF 1917 the average
price was around ~. cents For the
frst six months OF this year the fed
erai government nxed the price Al
