BY MILTON BRONNER European Manager for NEA Service Berlin. May . 29—In London clubs they loye to tell the story of the man who boasted he read lots of news- papers ‘so he could have all kinds and shades of opinion before making up his mind on public questions. Asked what, papers.he. read. ho, replied: “On weekdays I read the solid Times ‘and the sprightly Daily Mail andi the hustling Evening News. in ‘the afternoon, On Sundays I read the.breezy Djspatch.” Youth Craft Youth Craft : ‘He--was amazed when ‘his friends td Hic end:Sealp Liquid Shampoo as N greeted his statement with shouts of Remedy Stand- Standard Size. laughter, One of them enlightened ard Size. hjm by explaining that all those pa- pers belonged to Lord Northcliffe and expressed his policies, ‘There are many who say that Hugo ‘Stinnes,Germany’s business king ‘is’ the German Northcliffe only more so.

To assure himself of a steady, ample supply of cheap wood, he bought great forest tracts in East Prussia and Finland. Then his restless brain got. busy again. He had-the timber and he had the coal. Why not, ship the: coal: to where the. timber stood and manu- facture . valuable . wood cellulose paper pulp an paper. i So one fine. day Germany, learned that-loads of Stinnes coal were going across Germany to East Prussia, where, in Stinnes. mills, trees were converted into Stinnes paper and pulp, Later he: bought,a big concern in CKoenlgsburg . and another in North Germany. In’ his own neigh- borhood..of Westphalia there was a mill which manufactured, fine note pape, s0,he. bought that, too. Buys Three Berlin Papers Then it struck Stinnes it would be a grand-ideaito manufacture Stinnes paper into. Stinnes newspapers., So in quick succession he bought three Berlin journals... His first investment was the “Industrie. and Handleszei- tung,” which, as its name, jnicates, ‘is, a business, paper. .It was,.the, begt in Germany ang so an importany acquisition for a business king. His next purchase was .the smaller “Deutsche Warte.” F ‘Hig third acquisition was the, most significant of all. .He.. bought the “Deutsche Allgemeoine Zeitung,” the paper which-in the old days: of ‘the monarchy was the semi-officials , or- gan of the government. What it said Tepresented what.the rulers..wanted known. Its readers are still very largely the once-upon-a-time official classes who are true to the royalist cause and hope for an-ultimate restor- ationtof the Hohenzollerns. « Supports People's ‘Party Stinnes belongs to: the German People’s party.,-In: ‘fact, he is its chief}. financial ‘backer...

However, that “nay be, he is too shrew a busi- ness4man to comp?"

G The fact is the.Deutsche Alle- meine. Zeitung certainly. watches its step; It confines itself largely to giving the news, — If the news is colored .to suit the interests of Stinnes, it is very cleverly done. Anza time when German papers. are almost, as' small as those of..France because of the high cost of things this great Stinnes sheet gives abundant proof. of the full money coffers in back..of. it, It is the largest paper in, Berlin and.it spends much money on special telegraphic service in a period when the rate of foreign .ex- chpngy against. Germany makes cables from outside really worth their actual weight in gold. -~ I have been told that Stinnes. owns at Jeast: one important paper ‘in al- most every considerable city of Ger- many. and that only. recently he closed a) deal for two in Leipsic. Whenever: such assertions: appear in the German. press, they are imme- diately denied by the Deutsche Alle- meine: Zeitung... This paper persists in saying that Stinnes.owns only the three I have mentioned. Stinnes’ secretary. earnestly told me the same’ thing... To which other. Germans reply that.the ownership of the many other Pepers may not be in Stinnes name. ‘products—4) Germany destroyed ‘in. the. war. In the last few. weeks Germany has paid its reparations bills promptly, but it seems improbable that Germany will be able to raise the amount it will, be obliged to pay the last day of this. month. ., If, Germany does. not meet. its pay- ment, some Frenchmen believe France should march soldiers in the Ruhr dia trict.and Bavaria, parts of, Germany; and hold this land until Germany docs pay-up, But probably France will. not do this... For sober and well-balanced Frenchmen believe Germany will not refuse to pay if it is able to pay and that little could be. gained by .sena.. ing French soldiers into Germany ter- ritory, Meanwhile a commission of .bank- ers is: meeting- at Paris to consider granting an international loan to Ger- qjany, thus enabling Germany. to,meet its payments>, Attending: this. meeting are, bankers, and financiers from most of the important iEuropean’ countries as well as J. P: Morgan, one of Amer- fca’s. greatest bankers. 3 ‘Finance Minister ‘Hermes, who-is in charge of Germany’s money: affairs, also is at Paris trying to arrange for the peaceful settlement of the repara- tions question. :.<The world conference at Genoa. Italy, to settle the money troubles of Europe, failed utterly “in, accomplish- ing its purpose. ‘The only result of aoe ee concern not only had three paper mills, but. tous Vienna newspapers— the Extrablatt, the Mittags Zeitung, the Winer Allgemeine: Zeitung and the Sonn and Montags Zeitung. The ‘Gxtrablatt is . an’ illustrated paper with a large circulation and the All- gemeing Zeitung -is a leading Bourse organ, “So in Austria as in Germany, Stinnes now controls a leading busi- ness newspaper. 4 When a man owns a string of newspapers, it is natural that he should .think..about the sources of their news. In.other words, he be- comes interested inthe -press associa- tions that supply the news by tele- graph, The first in which Stinnes in- vested money was the well known Dammert \ bureau, which had. three separate services: One for papers supporting the German Peoples. party; one. for, the papers which support the ‘Democratic party; and lastly a service for papers free from political leanings. This bureau has now been merged with the Telegraph: Union, in which Stinnes is also said to have invested money. FES BS King of Ink and Paper Having the wood and; the coal and’ the paper and the newspapers, Stinnes has gone almost as‘far.as it is pos- sible in the newspaper business. But there are other outlets’ for print pa- per. There is, for instance, the book and pampjhlet- trade and also: the general. printing of leaflets, circus lars, ; catalogues, bjll heads, etc. So Stinnes formed a new concern un- der © his own aiame ‘and also. brought two famous and old established com- panies—the North German Book and Printing Co., andthe powerful Bux- enstein Press, which itself controls a number -. of subordinate. concerns. The eminence attached by. Stinnes fs obvious. No.man*in Germany -is in such a strategic position to in- fluence public: opinion updn ‘corpora- tion laws, taxation, tariff’ and other matters that. interest big business, If he wants to ‘he ‘can concentrate a weight of _ printed. matter—newspa- But ‘they, say he, controls them just the same, Somtimes they say a bank or’a coal mining company or a big ‘mill controls the paper. And Stinnes controls the bank or the mill or the mine. ; rin Austrian Journalism: He has also become ‘an’ important factorin Austrian journalism, . when pers, pamphlets, books, magazines— such as never before has been’ at the disposal of one man in Germany. It’s_no wonder that in n2wspaper circles «they now ‘call him the King of Ink and Paper. * (Copyright, 1922, NEA’ Service, Inc.)
