Combined 1887 Output Expected

NEW YORK, Dec. 1.-THE news
print industry of the United States
and Canada has been operating at
nearly maximum capacity In 1887, and
combined output will be the greatest
on record, according to H. E. Hansen
in the Annalist.
THE market value Of this output,
however, will still be substantially be-
low the high level of 1929, although
tonnage production will be about 10
per cent greater than in that year.
This reflects the low level of news
print prices and explains an unsatis-
factory profits situation.
'Newsprint prices for 1888 have
been raised substantially. and the in
dustry's year-end position is fairly
strong. The most disturbing factor
in the outlook is the present business
recession in the United States"
Canadian production for 1887 will
reach a new high record. Mr.. Hansen
estimates that total output for the
year will be 1884 900 tons, or 13 per
cent more than in 1886, the previous
high point and 80 per cent more
than in 1929 THE market value of
this years output will be about s20,-
100000 greater than last year, but ap-
proXimately s22,000,O00 below the
high level of 1929. In other words, the
reduction in prices since 1929 has
more than offset the 80 per cent In
crease in production"

renewed interest by domestic worsted
manufacturers and Strengthening
prices in foreign wool markets.
Buying was not heavy in domestic
wools, but small to moderate quanti-
ties were purchased much more freely
than for several weeks.
In order to make the comparatively
limited purchases buyers found it nee
essary in many cases to raise their bids
substantially above prices they nave
been offering in the last several
weeks. Quotations in many grades
remained largely nominal and some
what irregular as actual trading has
been confined to a few grades.

CHICAGO, Dec. 11.-Calling for
Immediate cooperation of the Gov
ernment and industry to formulate
and put into effect a program for
raising living standards which will be
fair to business, labor and Govern
ment, Thomas j. Watson, president of
the International Chamber of Com
merce and of International Business
Machines Corp, last night told the
World Trade Conference here that the
present economic strife between the
Government and business is retarding
the general prosperity of the Nation.
If I were asked to place the blame
for this condition, I would divide it
equally between Government and the
business and financial people / be-
lieve that both sides are doing too
much arguing and not enough dis
cussing. In an argument both sides
try to prove they are right; in dis
cussion both sides search for the cor
rect answer" he said.
