Federal curb on newsprint urged by Munsey
A. Munsey of New York daily and three magazines urges federal restrictions on newsprint to prevent forest depletion. He warns of a possible 25 year future with no wood pulp and 5 to 10 cent papers, arguing voluntary cooperation is impossible and government action is necessary. He favors gradual size limits and a constitutional timber measure, with hearings and international talks already under discussion. He also notes Hearst’s call for a 20 percent price cut and rate doubling to restrain consumption without hurting revenue.
