HOW THE BIG DAILIES VIEW THE PRINT-PAPER SIT UATION Many of the larger papers of the country are intimating very strongly that all of the raise in price of print paper is not justi fied on the grounds of increased cost of labor or raw material, but that a combination of print pa per manufacturers is responsible Ur the greater portion of the in crease. These same statements were made before the federal trade commission investigation at Washington. The following editorial from the New York World is a fair example of the attitude of many of the most in fluential papers of the country : Piracy in Paper "When the federal trade com mission reassembles in August it will meet an important problem relating to the price of print pa per . If this government agency for the correction or rapacity in business is ever to have an op portunity to prove its value, it can ask nothing better than that which now presents itself. "Except as individaul publish ers have protected themselves from monopolizes in this coun rry for almost a generation. There is a pretense of competi tion, but the consumer who en ters the market soon finds that he has allotted to a single pro ducer and that nobody else cares to do business with him. This is combination at its worst. "Of late, purchasers not pro moted by long-time contracts 1 ave met prices prohibitive on : II sides, and the evidence of « mspiracy are too numerous and too plain to be disregarded. Extortion in this line can make no plea of necessity. It is to he attributed to nothing but the :hics of highway—the power 1 •> rob and the helpessnes of the victim who is to be robbed. "Perhaps a vigorous protest on the trade commmission will ing this buccaneering to an e nd. If not, the case should go to a federal grand jury with out delay."

U. S. MARINES MAKE LONG HIKE Washington. Aug. 14. What is believed to have been one of the longest tropical hikes ev-r made by American troops tl 'own on their own resources in a hostile co ntry, was the hike .eade by Eight Com pany. Fourth Regimen' of U. S. Marines, when it covered in a day and-a night, of July 2nd and 3rd, the 111 kilometers be tween Monte Ch.isti and Santi ago, Santo Domingo, after fight ing most of the way. It is sev enty-six Americans miles be tween these two points and the hike was the third longest ever : made by the U. S. Marine Corps, approached warfare. With a handful of U. S. Mar ines, Col. Pendleton maintained I unbroken, an eighty mile line ; of communication, and the quick settling of the Dominican trouble is probably due, in the opinion of Marine Corps officials, to the rapid hiking of the Marines to the interior of the country. The natives have been disarmed and there is no further fighting. The expeditionary force un der Col. Pendleton of the Mar ine Corps, consisted of two regi ments of Marines.
