WPB Official Hopes
For More Equa|ized
Newsprint Order

By The Associated Press.
A War Production Board official
said today he hoped for revised
newsprint limitation order with
fewer inequities' which will create
fewer occasions for the granting
of appeals" to newspapers seeking
more paper.
Matthew G. Sullivan. chief of
WLB's newspaper section, said the
new order will result from "a survey
that is being made at the present
time 'which) will furnish to the
Newspaper Advisory Committee
much more accurate information
than has been available"
Mr.. Sullivan testified before
House investigating committee
which has heard repeated asser-
tions that WPB's present handling
OF neWsprint quotas is unfair to
some papers. Most OF these critics
centered their fire on an appeals
system through which extra -o;1ota
grants OF paper are handled.
Referring to critics of the appeals
system, Mr.. Sullivan told the COM
mittee: In every case recommended
tlons have been made on the basis
OF facts presented.
Every case has been decided on
It's own merits without reference tn
ownership of the newspaper in
VOWED and certainly without favor
ltlsm of any kind. Any suggestion
That Harry M. Bitner. director of
WPB's printing and publishing divi-
sion. has Influenced those recon-
mendations is made without knowl-
edge of the facts"
Mr.. Sullivan said present Govern
ment limitation orders, once ex-
pected TO reduce newsprint con-
sumption 10 per cent, actually had
brought a savings of only half that
amount.
Il cannot emphasize too strongly
that the 10 per cent anticipated
saving was just guess" he said
1T turned out to be a bad guess
for two reasons:
The spread between net press run
and net paid circulation was not as
big as the Newspaper Industry Ad-
vlsory Committee thought it was.
Advertising went up sinstead of
down. Those were the reasons why
the 10 per cent saving did not ma
terialize. The industry and the
War Production Board cannot be
blamed for that"

Senate advocates of strong in

an uphill battle today to
strengthen the language of
postwar peace-keeping resolu-

Senator Ball, Republican, OF
Minnesota said he~and three other
proponents of more fortnight
declaration would argue their case
before the committee acts on the
resolution, probably next Tuesday.
The resolution, introduced for
mally by Chairman Connally yes
terday, would pledge the United
States to "join with free and sover-
elgn nations in the establishment
and maintenance of international
authority with power to prevent ag-
gression and to preserve the peace

Senator Ball and his colleagues,
Senator's Hill, Democrat, of Ala

Ohio, urged that the measure be
rewritten to make clear where the
power, Or military force. needed to
preserve future peace should reside.
In addition, Senator Hatch said

While strong internationalist
faction represented most of the op-
position which has appeared thus
