Foreign manufacturers Of woodpulp
in deprecated currency countries not
only are playing havoc with the Amer1-
can industry through their imports to
this country and causing widespread
in at least three related
industries, but because the American
product has no tariff protection ac-
tually are receiving q bonus ON every
shipload landed at an American port
From the North, Midwest and even
from the South, where the woodpulp
industry is in the infant stage, comes
despairing cry, from the farmers,
whose wood cuttings are decreased py
the foreign imports; from the mil
workers. who are actually thrown out
of employment through use IN tne
United States of the foreign pulp; 1roin
miners of sulphur, limestone ana coai;
whose products are not required aho
from the railroads, which lose tne
transportation Of these articles Wnea
foreign woodpulp is LANDED aV ohi'eo
States ports in foreign boats.
Wood pulp Is divided into three gen
eral classes: Ground wood, used prm-
cipalIy in the production OF newsprlnS
paper; sulphate pulp, employed in pro
ducing wrapping paper: and Su!pnlte
pulp, from which printing paper, tissue
paner, and some Of the higher grades
of wrapping paper are produced. OI
the three. the last named is the most
important. The importations are
chiefly from the debased currency
countries of Finland, Norway, Sweden
and Canada.
Sell Below U. S. Cost.
The Federal Government has been
told by the domestic wood pulp INDUS
try that bleached sulphite pulps OF
good quality sold at STA a ton at the
beginning of 1880. at $50 at the END
of 1890, and at $50 at the time Eng
land went off the gold standard. The
cost of bleaching Is usually figured at
sI2 ton, which fixes the price OF
unbleached sulphite at S3s ton. AT
the present time, foreign producers are
Offering unbleached sulphite pulp, de-
livered In Wisconsin, at less than $50 q
ton, and the bleached product at under
S45 a ton.
The bare cost of manufacturing
bleached sulphite pulp in American
mills is given at SIS ton, and un-
bleached sulphite at S43 ton, despite
the fact that wages, salaries and every
reducible overhead expense have been
cut as far as possible. The price OF
pulpwood has been slashed until 1t is
generally admitted that the farmers
and other producers are left with no
profit at all, and, in many cases, prac-
tically nothing for their labor of get
ting the wood cut
1T is obvious" the industry has in
formed the Government, that If our
mills can be underquoted on sulphite
pulp from 20 to 80 per cent on their
bare manufacturing costs, they must
promptly cease pulp mill operation, or,
In the very near future, embrace f.
nancial ruin"
As the above outlined situation is
true in Wisconsin and Minnesota pulp
mills, so is 1t also true in the pulp
mills Of Maine, State whose sardine
industry as well has been crippled by
competition from Norway, prime fac
tor in the pulp competition.
Reduced so Per Cent.
In 1927 Maine employed 4,064 wage
earners IN the pulp mills, with an an
nual payroll of nearly $6.000,000. and

DETROIT BANK
"PLAN" in USE

assets of the partially closed First
National bank and the Guardian
National Bank of Commerce, both
of Detroit, and endeavor to make
at least 40 per cent of the de-
posts of the old institution avail
able for depositors. The local
bank will match dollar for dollar,
funds available from the Recon-
struction Finance Corporation.
Under the reorganization, which
is expected to be a model for SIM
liar new set-ups in cities lacking
necessary banking facilities, the
R. F. C. will receive preferred
stock and the General Motors
Corporation common stock. Both
organizations are expected to dis
pose of their holdings as rapidly
as conditions improve. The gov
ernment'S preferred stock will
carry no liability.
Reorganization of the new
banking facilities in Detroit elimi-
mates the serious situation which
preceded the banking crisis that
swept the country early this
month. 1t was considered by some
experts as the largest obstacle in
the way of resumption of normal
banking operations throughout
the country.
With the elimination of the De-
troit difficulties, governmental
and banking officials are free to
go ahead with reorganization in
other cities in which all banks
have not reopened on a 100 per
cent basis.
These reorganizations are ex-
pected to take the form of the
one worked out for Detroit and
are expected to proceed rapidly
now that government authorities
have laid down a definite plan for
reopening of these banks.
Frozen" deposits exceeding
S20O,OOO,OOO of the more than
$50O,O00,OO0 now in the two De-
troit banks will be released under
the plan. This is expected to boil
ster business in the Detroit area
and elsewhere.
Under the Detroit plan" the
government has laid down a def
mite policy for reorganization of
closed banks. This calls for match
ing by the government through
the Reconstruction Finance Cor
poration dollar for dollar the
money raised by local interes's
for reorganizations.
