NAL increase in the number OF

statement of the Budget Bureau
does not say that an increase is ex-

points out the fact that a great
number require handling.
ANY inference that we contem.

War in Scandinavia
May Boost U. 5.
Publishing Costs
Curtoilment Of Wood Pulp
Exports May Put Droin
On Canadian Supply

Extension Of the European war to
Scandinavia may increase book and
other publishing costs in the United
States, according to Commerce De-
partment experts. More than go
per cent Of wood pulp imported to
this country comes from the Scan
dinavian countries. In 1899 i'm
ports accounted for approximately
q per cent Of all wood pulp con-
sumed in the United States. If the
war cuts of imports from Scandi-
navia the effects would be felt here,
1t Is estimated, in about two months.
Last year Sweden, the worlds
largest exporter Of wood pulp, sup
piled 42 per cent Of all wood pulp
imported into the United States.
Much Of this is used in the publi-
cation OF books and magazines.
Though Sweden still remains out
side the theater of military opera
tions the allied blockade and the
naval warfare in Scandinavian wa
ters have interfered with the nor
NAL flow of trade between Sweden
and the United States. About 4 per
cent Of this country's wood pulp i'm
ports comes from Norway.
Canadian Shortage Possible.
The United Kingdom and France
look to Scandinavia for the bulk
of their supplies of wood pulp and
newsprint. Because of the war
Great Britain and France are ex-
pected to increase their purchases
from Canada. AS result of these
larger purchases by Britain and
France shortage in the supply Of
Canadian pulp is seen here as
possibility. This, too, would affect
publishing costs In the United
States.
About 60 per cent Of the news
print consumed in the United States
comes from Canada. Stocks of wood
pulp now on hand in the United
States are comparatively small.
Finland's Shipments Drop.
In 1887 Finland was the second
largest exporter of wood pulp.
Twelve pulp and paper mills, in
cluding five chemical pulp mills, are
located in the area unoffcially re-
ported to have been ceded to the
Soviet Union by Finland under the
terms Of the recent Soviet-Finnish
peace agreement. Though Finland
Evening star., 1940-04-17

continues to sell wood pulp to the
United States shipments to this
country are running substantially
below the 1889 level. Denmark, now
controlled by the Nazi war ma
chine. exports little wood pulp or
paper to the United States.
The Commerce Department: is re-
ce1ving many inquiries from manu-
factIrers and others as to the prob
able effect on the domestic pulp and
paper industry Of the extension of
the war to Scandinavia.
