The brain trust opposes reducing U S imports to aid the paper industry. Professor Mordecai Ezekiel argues cuts would limit foreign demand for cotton and fruits, worsen farm readjustment, and hinder international trade, suggesting farmers favor restoring trade over further reductions. The policy would likely leave the south without a domestic paper industry and keep U S newsprint reliant on foreign stock.
