Will Proltw laMr Price
Washington. March 27 A resolu
tion for an investigation of the news
print paper situation by the depart
ment of commerce was introduced la
the house today by Representative
Copley of Illinois. Much of the sup
ply of raw material for print paper
that came from Germany, Norway
and Sweden was cut off by the war.
Other material is being shipped froic
this country to Europe for use in the
manufacture of munitions, the reso
lution says. An opinion la asked oe
the advisability of placing an embar
go on raw material.
According to Mr. Copley, the price
of paper has advanced so far that the
lives of many small newspapers are
threatened.
