newsprint monopoly probe lap Emanuel Cellar iD New Tort chairman at the House judiciary committee has anaeuncod that Us subcommittee on study at monopoly power has "received complaints that the price of newsprint Is escessive" and that hear Inga win be held on the question of newsprint monopoly Cellar Indicated that his committee wishes to know: Whether prices on Imported newsprint era excessive Whether United States newsprint producers are following impost prices and whether they are working at capacity Why United States producers da not lower their prices if they are operating below capacity 4-What has happened to projects te set up new paper mills in American territory including Alaska "Other questions wQ appear as the Investigatioa proceeds" Cellar added "and I hope that persons having authentic information this problem will offer their aid to this subcommittee" This writer was told hy a sub committee spokesman that the data for the newsprint bearings not been set despite published reports that they will start late in March Fowler president of the Newsprint Association of Canada has invited Caller and Us committee to go to Canada and make a first-hand study of Canada's newsprint industry and its operations "1 do not believe that it Is feasible for your committee to obtain a full and complete picture of Canadian newsprint operations without a firsthand study of this Und In Canada" Mr Fowler wrote Fowler pointed out that print is a commodity with "certain explosive political characteristics' and one that "has bsea a source of some friction and

attempts of our Department of Justice to subpoena Canadian newsprint officials to a federal grand jury investigatioa In New York This was vigorously protested on both sides of the border Canadians regarded it aa an arrogant Insult to their sovereignty The Justice department finally backed down and resorted to diplomatic channels to obtain the information It desired One signifiesnt fact in the current controversy is that mergers of many United States newspapers have been necessitated because of high operating rests Newsprint and labor head the list of newspaper operating costa An equally significant faet however is that Canadian newsprint manufacturers in MM produced an all-time record of 5173000 tons Thia was 100000 toms more than produced in the preceding peak year of MO and 1000000 tons more thsu were produced before World Wsr IL The estimated 1930 capacity production la Canada is 3230000 toms Eighty-five per rent of Canada's MM newsprint went to the United States par cent remained in Canada and I par cent went to the rest of the world Only 10 years age when Canada produced 1123000 tons 71 per cent went to the United States I psr rent to Canada and 11 per cent to other nations Faria and figures may make It difficult for a congressional committee to prove that Canadian newsprint manufacturers have repressed production to hike prices They do not make it difficult however to show that freedom of the American press depends partly on our ability to obtain newsprint from Canada Cart Ns I white 111-11 CEICAOO CASE CHlCAQa Marrt -Wbaa: Nows rajlew I MSOSH Oate Na
