Int. typographical
Union Has MuzZle on
Papers McCOne Says

Washington. May 3.-The charge that
the International Typographical Union
exercises a censorship over part of the
American press was made before the
Senate newsprint investigating commit
tee today by e. ]. McCone, general
manager Of the Buffalo Commercial
Called upon for a specific instance in
support of his charge, Mr.. McCone de-
clared that only four newspapers print
ed last October certain parts of Ebert
H. Gary's testimony before the Senate
steel investigating committee, and that
the Buffalo News, after putting the
story in type, was forced to change it
under pressure from the unions shop
chapel The witness said that the Com
mercial and the New York Times were
the only papers in the eastern section
of the country that printed the Gary
criticism of organized labor as given the
committee.
Although the witness stated that only
four newspapers were free Of union CEN
sorships, he did not give the names nor
did members Of the committee ask for
them.
Mr.. McCone charged that the union,
through exercise of censorship by the
shop chapel. kept articles unfavorable
to organized labor out of most news
papers.
Before he had injected a new feature
into the hearing, Senator Reeds propos-
al to tax newspapers issuing more than
a stipulated number of pages was dis
cussed. commended and condemned. Ja-
son Rogers. publisher Of the New York
Globe, approved it, with the added sug-
gestion that all advertisements over a
maximum size be taxed. This Ire
| thought would keep down the size Of
papers and save enough newsprint to
end the present shortage.
Nearly all of the witnesses agreed
that voluntary rtailment, aided pos
sibly by pressure of some kind from
the government, would solve the prob
lem.
