BALTIMORE PAPERS
MAY COST MORE

Indications point to an advance in
the price of Baltimore newspapers.
especially those in the morning field.
Following example of the daily news
papers in the larger cities. it is be-
lieved that the Baltimore newspapers
will shortly change their price to two
cents per copy.
This increase will be brought about
by the advance in the cost of white
paper and other materials essential to
the various publications.
This would not affect the street
sales in Annapolis where most of the
papers already cost two cents, but
would have the effect of boosting the
price for mail and regular delivery
subscriptions.
