Faced with another $10-a-ton boost in the price of Canadian newsprint--the second such increase in less than a year--American newspapers publishers find themselves in an increasingly difficult cost squeeze in getting out your daily paper. The latest increase--it's scheduled to take effect June 15--is expected to add more than $50 million a year to costs of publishing in thifi country. Newsprint, the paps? that newspapers are printed on, accounts for up to 50 per cent of the expense of getting out a big metropolitan daily. Figuring in the new $10 increase, the price of newsprint since V-J Day has climbed 152 per cent. It has gone up more than 200 per cent since the Great Depression. j Some publishers predict that the higher costs will inevitably lead to further increases in advertising and subscription rates-- already near or past the saturation point, in the opinion of many. Others say the steady trend toward fewe& and larger newspapers, toward mergers and consolidations, will gather new fosce. Expectations are that an increasing number of newspapers may be put out of business. The Truman administration immediately asked the Canadian government to reconsider and rescind its approval of the price hike. Price director Ellis Arnall, in a telegram to C. D. Howe, Canadian minister of defense production, said 749 American daily newspapers h a v j disappeared within the last twenty years through consolidations, mergers and failures. If newsprint prices continue to rise, the trend will continue and --in the end--the Canadian newsprint industry itself would ultimately be injured. ' The increase will boost the price of Canadian newsprint delivered in New York to an alltime high of $126 a ton. In the early 30's ' newsprint cost $40 a ton. It was $50 a ton at the time of Pearl Harbor. SUICIDE VICTEi. Frank T.
