The controller based his finding on the report of Ne chartered ac- countants, 'who. wgre engaged for several months * investigating costs of production at the various paper mills. This report was in the hands of the newspapers only three days before the hearing was resum- ed at Ottawa, Publishers had, therefore, no time or opportunity to digest the report or confute its con- clusions. Despite thelr protest that the cards were being stacked against them, the <ontroller was adamant; the enquiry must proceed and a ~er- dict rendered immediately. Under such circumstances, the publishers declined to attend and take part in the proceedings, as they could pre- pare no adequate defence in so short a thme. If the appeal tribunal, or, as a court of jast resort, the government, permits the finding to stand, many weeklies will be forced to suspend 'publication.
