Canadian Firm Raises
'Newsprini SO ! Ton
10 80 Year ToI, Of s116
By III. Assoeia,sd d Pres.

Toronto, June l.-Abitibi
Power q Paper Co, Ltd. today
announced a $40 q ton increase
in the price Of newsprint. This
brings the New York price to $116
a ton and the Canadian price to
$ll2.
Abitibi. with production Of
around 100000 tons a year. is the
third largest Canadian neWsprint
producer. Total Canadian pro-
duction is around 5.4 million tons
q year. Of which nearly 80 per
cent is sold in the United States.
The increase is effective July /.
Reports of possible price in
creases have been current in re-
cent weeks. but so far no other
company has announced an IN
crease. In the past, however,
prices of the various companies
reach a common level in the
course of a few weeks or months.
Ahitibi operates in Ontario,
Quebec and Manitoba and re-
Gently entered British Columbia
forest operations on big scale.
Increased Last FAN.
The last increase of $6 a ton
occurred last fall. AT that time
several companies announced a
$40 increase, but the biggest pro-
ducer, the international Paper Co.
group. set the increase at Sc and
the other companies cut back their
increases to meet that figure.
At that time, Abitibi, one of the
companies which had announced a
$40 increase, stated:
ITO avoid a period Of uncer-
tainty and confusion we have de-
cided to meet this reduction un-
ternationars So without delay.
Rising Costs Cited.
I'VE believe that our previously
increase of $40 was in
the best interests of consumers
of newsprint as well as our own.
It is needed to meet increasing
costs and thus to encourage fur
ther expansion of supply. We do
not believe that the increase Of
Sc will be adequate to accomplish
this purpose"
The increase of $40 sent news
print to the highest price in
nearly 80 years. The new price
compares with an all-time top of
S120 in the EOS and a low Of
about $40 in the depression years.

Close Van Ness ST.

The Commissioners are ex-
pected to oppose the latest move
to close Van Ness street.
The issue cropped up again
yesterday when Secretary Of Com
merce Sawyer sent Congress a
proposed bill directing the Com
missioners to close the street be-
tween Connecticut avenue and

ards.

said today he had been looking
into the Van Ness street issue and
believed it will be opposed by the
Commissioners on the same
grounds on which they have previ-
ously based their objections
The street was closed during the
war over the strong protests OF
District residents. After more
than four years and considerable
high-level argument. it was re-
opened on May 20, 1916.
The Commissioners, in consist
emily opposing any move to close
the street permanently, argued
that the Federal Government
knew Van Ness street was a
through street at the time it built
the Bureau of Standards on both
sides Of it.
A House committee tabled 9
bill to close the street in 1941
Early in 1916. when it was appar.
