Newsprint Supply
Reported Still Short;
Production 10 Increase
BY the Associated Press


The Commerce Department last
night reported the supply of news
print in all parts of the country re-
mains insufficient, with market
newsprint practically unobtainable. ,
The department noted a pros
pective increase of 1000 900 tons in
all paper products for the year but
said the prospective output of d.
900 900 tons has not changed ma
terially" the newsprint shortage.
Two new projects which may be
expected to increase domestic pro-
duction in the course of the next
two or three years are the construc-
ton of newsprint mills in Alabama
and possibly in Alaska" it noted.
Exceeds 1899 Level.
This years production probably
will exceed that of 1889 by SIS pei
cent, the survey said, and many
types of paper are approaching the
production level which will meet
consumer needs.
With additional pulp. paper and

This may take several more
months unless total economic activ-
ity should recede materially. Even
then there may remain substan-
tial foreign demand which could be
met by domestic mills if export in
terest is aroused"
Estimated total dollar shipments
of pulp, paper, paper board and
paper products in the first half OF
this year were s2,733, 100000. This
indicates a gain in dollar sales of

Real Income Gain Unlikely.
Since the price rise has approx
mately matched the increase in ma
tional purchasing power in terms OF
present dollars, the department said,
the industry has probably enjoyed
little or no increase in real in
come"
Imports of wood pulp amounted
to 222,874 tons in July, gain OF
10000 tons over the same month
last year, the department reported.
Canada was the principal sup
plier, providing 123,719 tons, an in
crease of more than 20 per cent
over her shipments year ago.
Sweden supplied 66,O34 tons, a
drop from last year, and Finland
2S,222 tons, an increase. Imports
from Norway last month were 1850

Urges Moderation
In Wage Claims

STOCKHOLM (By airnaiD -
The Council of the Labor Fedora
ton, which includes representa-
tives of all Swedish trade unions,
has unanimously adopted a resolu-
ton urging the unions to be very
moderate in their claims when the
wage contract negotiations are re-
opened this fall In the present
situation, the resolution sets forth.
the trade union movement must
adjust its wage demands to living
cost developments and improve
ments in productivity. This is
duty towards the general economic
policy of the country. the greatest
difficulty of which lies in balanc-
ing an increasing purchasing pow
er with an unchanged or even
shrinking volume of goods. 1t is
also a duty towards the workers
themselves. who will hardly gain
by wage increases not resulting in
higher real wages"

Grain Harvest Covers
Half of Sweden's Need

STOCKHOLM (By airmaiD =
Sweden's total harvest of wheat
and rye this year is not expected
to exceed $4,000 tons, which is
40 per cent less than in 1916. This
means that grain available for
milling will not amount to more
than some 100000 tons, which is
half of the annual need. In order
tc maintain the present bread ra-
lions, which are among the low
est in Europe, between 325. 900 and
$4,000 tons must be imported.
During the summer Sweden did, in
fact, cut the bread rations slight
ly to stretch the supplies on hand,
but when the schools open again
the old ration will be restored. The
potato crop, according to official
estimates, will correspond rough
ly to the average. or only three or
four per cent below the figures for
1916.

their communique that the experts
should consider, in the first place,
the question of mutual support
during the present postwar Pc
Rod, but add that they should also
examine the chances for a longer

question whether the tariff bar

wholly or partly eliminated.

Surveying the economic situa-
ton, the Labor Federation points
out that the price level on the
whole has remained stable, the
increase in the living cost index
being principally due to larger tax
payments which, in turn, are an
expression of higher wages. The
increases in food prices which
were recently passed by the Gov
eminent, primarily because of eX-
pected raises in farm wages, do
not seem to be large enough to
endanger the price stability. AS
fer the tax item, substantial re-
duction will occur after the turn
of the year as a consequence of
the recent tax reform and the new
child allowances. The increase in
prices of vitality needed import
goods seems to have eliminated.
The Labor Federation also points
out that more rigorous price
control is an important part of the
Governments program in the fight
against initiation.
Besides the price trends, devel-
opment of industrial productivity
is of primary Importance for the
trade union movements policy in
regard to wages, the Labor FEEDER
alton continues. Nobody can ex-
pect the workers to refrain from
seeking wage increases, which are
actually part of an increase in
production they themselves help
to bring about. There are no sta
tistical reports showing how in
dustrial productivity has recently
developed, but for various reasons
the rate of increase in certain
fields probably has been smaller
than it normally is. The shortage
of goods, the rapid turnover of la
Dor in many industries, tendency
on the part of management to pro-
duce goods subject to a not SO
strict price control, instead of ne
cesslties-theSe are some of the
factors which tend to reduce pro-
ductlvity or at least to hamper a
continuous improvement"
