Free Competition Means
Labor Newsprint Squeeze
As Ceilings Go Off

Washington (FP) - Competition
from the big-money press for
available supply of newsprint may
be a more difficult problem than
mounting newsprint costs for the
publishers of labor papers, an OPA
spokesmep told Federated Press
Nov. 13.
Despite the ending of price con-
troll on newsprint and an absence
of a CPA ALLEGATION program to
insure a fair amount of paper to
the labor press, the OPA expert
said he thought prices probably
would not rise more than 10 per
cent.
Standard newsprint cost $51 a
ton in 1912 before prices were con-
trolled, and a series of price rises
over the past four and a half years
brought the price up to S85 before
newsprint was decontroled in
President Truman's last sweeping
decontrol order. The industry had

$4,000 Coal For
Christmas Seal
Sole In County

At the meeting of the Christmas
Seal Township chairmen of the
Columbiana County Public Health
League held on Thursday Novem-
Der ID at Crooks White Cottage
restaurant near Lisbon the goal
for the 1916 Christmas Seal Sale
was set at $4,000 for the entire
county.
The Christmas Seal Township
Chairmen from the various town.
ships met and discussed final plans
for the 10th annual Christmas Seal
Sale which will begin on Monday
November 25 and continue through
Christmas. Many of the members
commented on the design of the
1916 Christmas Seal which depicts
lamplighter lighting the gas
lamp is days gone by.
Last year the Columbiana Coun-
ty Public Health League raised
$19,006.31 from the Christmas Seal
Sale. This money was spent for
health education programs to the
schools and general public, chest
X-raying of high school juniors
and seniors, industry and general
public, services of tuberculosis
specialist at the Chest Clinic, sup
port of the tuberculosis mill levy
and sponsoring of the Columbiana
County health survey.
The potters herald. [volume] (East Liverpool, Ohio) 1899-1982, 1946-11-21

been granted 81 increase in
August and another $40 increase
as recently as Oct. II, 1916.
About 80 per cent of the 4,250,-
900 annual newsprint consumption
in the U. S. comes from Canadian
mills. At present, OPA said, they
are working at about SO per cent
capacity, and prefer to sell their
production under long term con-
tracts, some running as long as
five years. The OPA view is that
Canadian manufacturers will pre-
fer to tie their regular customers
down to long term contracts at the
current $85 price, rather than
boost prices still further and pos
sibly ALLEVIATE good will among
their customers when the current
inflationary trend slackens off.
Publishers of labor papers, not
buying in such large quantities, face
a squeezeout at the manufacturer
level first. Then they generally
must add to the $85 ton charge
for newsprint SO cutting charge
and a $4 bundling charge. If they
buy from a dealer, they also face
a standard 80 per cent dealers
markup, bringing the price per ton
to around $128.
About 10000 copies of 16-page
tabloid size labor paper can be
printed from one ton of newsprint,
bringing the paper charge per
copy to 2/3 cents.
There are no alternative news
print sources to Canada that could
fill American needs in the near
future, since the high point of i'm
portation of Scandinavian news
print just before the war saw only
100000 tons imported in one year,
about 8 per cent of American con-
sumption.
Two out of the seven u. S. mills
now supplying newsprint already
charge less than the old ceiling
price of $85, OPA said.

PdrleY Urges
PdY Boosts

New York (FP) = Substantial
wage increases are needed to meet
the inflationary prices brought or
by unrestricted profiteering," 20C
leaders of the United Electrical
Radio & Machine Workers de-
clared at the conclusion of 2-day
wage conference here.
Pointing out that "skyrocketing
prices are increasingly confronting
millions of Americans with a daily
crisis in buying the necessities of
life" the conference went on re-
cord that "wages and salaries must
be substantially increased in the
interests of American wage earn
ers and the entire nation"
Delegates blamed the recent Re-
publican election victory in part on
the administrations failure to pre-
vent initiation. They also called at
tion to IAN attempt by big indus
try to place the responsibility for
increased prices on wage increases
rather than on the huge, record
breaking profits which the big cor
porations are harvesting"
American big business" the
statement unanimously approved
by the delegates said, ''is waging
a gigantic propaganda campaign
to spread the lie that price increas-
es are caused by wage increases.
However, monopolies set prices
at whatever levels will make most
profits. Prices and living costs are
high today-not because of wage
and salary increases which con-
stitute only small percentage of
production costs-but because the
corporations have forced prices to
soar in order to obtain soaring
profits"

Jim Crow FIGHT
May Close Shows

Washington (FP) = Unless the
legitimate theaters in the capital
drop racial discrimination as a
policy, they may be forced to close
their doors before Jan. 1.
The issue came up Nov. Ia after
jimcrow was given an unexpected
rap when 33 playwrights, lyricists
and composers said they would not
permit their productions to play
here unless doors are opened to
Negro patrons.
A statement issued by Robert +.
Sherwood for the Dramatists'
Guild said racial discrimination "is
not in accord with either the senti-
ments or principles of large
majority Of theatergoers and lead
ers of the press in Washington.
Racial discrimination is an an
anachronistic as it is offensive in
this great, cosmopolitan capital
city"
1t added that hereafter contracts
for plays will require that none be
shown in any theater in Washing
ton from which persons are barred
because Of race, creed or color or
in which segregation is practiced
on either side of the footlights."
In addition to Sherwood, those
signing were Maxwell Anderson
whose "Joan of Lorraine" is cur
rently starring Ingrid Bergman at
the Lisner auditorium; Irving Ber-
lin, Ira Gershwin, Charles Mac
Arthur, Anita Loos, Oscar Kanin,
Ruth Gordon, Morton Gould, Oscar
Hammerstein, Moss Hart, Ben

American Action
Inc. Celebrates
Election Victory

New York (FP) - American
Action Inc, new national organ of
big business reaction, held post
election victory celebration at the
Waldorf Astoria hotel Nov. IL.
The $10-a-plate banquet was
sponsored by the National Eco
nomic Council, which is headed by
Merwin X. Hart, one of the organi-
Zers of American Action.
Hart's secretary told Federated
Press that he didn't want the press
to know anything about the din
ner and refused to give the names
of those who were invited, but a
private investigation disclosed that
prominent among the diners were
the active leaders of American Ac-
tion. The new organization made
its debut in the 1916 elections with
a million dollar fund for the defeat
of progressive congressman.
Guest of honor was radio COM
mentator Upton Close, who did the
spade work for American Action
in 1915 and is now sponsored in his
regular weekly broadcast by
Hart's organization. Close deliver
ed his broadcast from the dais.
Cheers and applause came from
the dinner guests as he got off
these quips:
"We now have a Congress which
is not afraid of labor bosses :.
"This country, and even its atom
bomb, belongs to us again"
Seated on the dais with Close
and Hart were John +. Raskob, an
organizer of the defunct Liberty
League, Samuel b. Pettengill of
Frank Gannett's Committee for
Constitutional Government, Gen.
Hugh H. Drum and Lammot du-
Pont, one of American Actions
millionaire industrial angels.
Among the other sponsors were
John t. Flynn, an American First
er; Ogden n. Hammond, former
envoy to Spain who like Hart is
propagandist for Gen. Francisco
Franco; Vice President John A.
Zellers of Remington-Rand; and
George H. Cless Jr., who wrote for
the Nazi-subsdized Scribner's
Commentator.
Close followed up his radio ad
dress with a Commute speech in
which he attacked the New Deal as
bastard Marxism" and told of his
fight TO stay on the air. Pettengill
and Hart also spoke, the latter
appealing for contributions to keep
on the radio.
