Print Paper Prices Set New High Record in 1920
Publishers Facing Rising
Cost Of Production
In 1921

NEW YORK, Jan. IS. - While
the cost of living is sagging, and the
cost of production is most lines of
business is dropping, American pub
fishers meet with still further price
increases.
News print paper contracts for the
first quarter of 1921 call for $3.50
per hundredweight. This is the
highest figure print paper ever has
been sold by contract. The "spot"
market price is considerable higher.
The largest price increase in his
tory was scored during 1920, and is
reflected in the $3.50 contract price
American and Canadian paper mills
are charging for January, February
and March, 1921.
Before 1916 the price of news
print maintained at almost even level
at between $1.92 and 50. 1t did not
pass the latter figure until July,
1910, When IL began steady clllnD,
reaching $3.11 in April, 1917. About
January, 1918, there was a slight
drop, but by the end of the year the
price had gone up to 1878.
The first $4 contract paper price
was reached in December, 1919.
In the latter part of 1920, when
all other prices were starting down
ward, print paper continued up.
ward going to $500 in November.
The 1921 contract price (for, Jan
uary, February and March, is $3.50.
This is so per cent higher than the
January $500 price; it isJ100 per
cent higher than the 1918 average
price, and is more than 200 per cent
higher than print paper ever sold at,
under contract, before the war.

NEWSPAPERS OF
STATE HARD HIT
Can't Cut Rates, They
Show At State
Meeting

MACON, Jan. 1S.-No reduction
in advertising or subscription rates
will be made in the near future by
members of the Georgia Press Asso-
citation, it was decided yesterday at
the opening session of the mid-winter
convention of the newspaper publish
ers of the state at the Hotel Lanier
yesterday. -
On motion of, W. G. Sutlive, of the
Savannah Press, the association went
on record as opposed to any reduc-
ton in the price of subscriptions and
of advertising, because materials US
ed IN the manufacture of a newspa-
per have not decreased as other com
modlt;es have, but on the other hand
have increased. The greatest in
crease in any of the materials used
by the newspaper publisher is in the
Price of white newsprint, which is
higher than it was a year ago. The
association also went on record as
being opposed to paying a commits
son to any corporation advertising
with them even if it had an advertis-
ing agent of its own, while it went
on record as favoring the association
of the publishers with all agencies
that distribute business through the
state.
Resolutions pledging the cooper
alton of the association to President
elect Harding and vice-president-
elect Coolidge and requesting Sena-
tors William ]. Harris and Hoke
Smith to use their influence in hav-
ing the Macarthur bill passed as it
will aid the state in building good
roads was adopted by the newspaper
publishers.
At the afternoon session plans
were made for entertaining the Ma
tional Editorial association which will
be held in Florida during March,
when they pass through Georgia on
their way back to their homes. Visit
ing editors from every state IN the
union will attend the convention in
Florida and it is the plan of the
Georgia newspaper publishers to en-
terrain them for one day either in
Macon Or Atlanta, the place to be
decided later. The entertainment
committee which will look after the
details, Will be appointed by the pres
ident with authority to act, a reso-
luton having been adopted to that
effect shortly before adjournment.
If the visitors are given big time
it will do a great deal to aid in the
Advertise Georgia campaign which is
now being waged, editors believe.
The annual meeting of the asso-
citation will be held at Washington
probably the last Monday in June,
though the date is to be determined
by the executive committee. A mo-
