AAA. AMENDMENT ASKED FOR PRESS Head of News Publishers Takes Issue With Wallace Letter. By the Associated Press. SYRACUSE, N. Y., June 20—J. D. Barnum, president of the American Newspaper Publishers’ Association, took issue last night with statements made in a circularized Jetter to publishers by Secretary of Agriculture Wallace, and recommended that Wallace safe- guard the interests of newspapers with specific amendments to the A. A. A. In a letter to Wallace, Barnum said that contrary to “uncquivocal” state- ments attributed to the Secretary of Agriculture in his message pending A. A. A. amendments permitted a proc- essing tax on newsprint paper and the power to restrict advertising. Tax Retention Scored. Barmum also characterized as “of- fensively unfair and unjust” provisions of the A. A. A. bill proposing that the Government keep taxes collected under its requirements, even in the event the Supreme Court declared the law unconstitutional. The association president said that the publishers were not motivated by propaganda or selfish purposes in scanning congressional legislation, but that the studies were made without prejudice and the results made avail- able to the association membership. Replying to Wallace's statemen® that there was no iulention of taxing newsprint paper, Batnum cited the provision of the A. A. A. bill defin- ing paper. “This definition,” he wrote, “is sufficiently broad to cover newsprint paper or any kind of paper. There- fore, even though you have no in- tention of levying such a tax, I do insist that the measure contains the power for you to levy it if you change your mind, and I suggest you recom- mend to Congress the following amendment * * *: ““Provided, That no such tax shall | be levied on newsprint paper or any of the component elements thereof.’” New Amendment Urged. As to advertising, Barnum said: “The measure which presumably had your recommendation contained a provision for grade labeling of many products,” and he further recom- mended Wallace insert an amend- ment prohibiting the regulation or restriction of advertising or the con- trol of advertising through the power of withholding marketing agreements. “Notwithstanding your statement that you have no intention of inter- fering with advertising,” he wrote, “I must direct your attention to the fact that the unfriendly attitude of | your department and of some of its| officials, particularly the Undersecre- tary of Agriculture, Prof. (Rexford G.) Tugwell, toward advertising is well known. * * * “(He) on many occasions has con-| cpaptico; D, A. R. medals for citi- demned advertising as an economic waste. In a talk in Cleveland on May 11, department was giving serious at- tention to provisions in marketing | agreements restricting advertising. Yet now you say the law does not author- ize such interference with \ busi- ness. * * * “So much for the two points which you raised in your letter. I hope that you will now recommend the amendments which you suggested.” 636-Pound Marlin Caught.

BOSTON, June 20—William Allen ‘White, Kansas publisher, here to col- lect data for another volume on Calvin Coolitige, diverged from his task long enough yesterday to dis- cuss the current political scene and to declare that he sees in it no dan- gerous opponent for President Roose- velt. “A coalition,” he sald, “won't get across the Alleghenies, and I don't think it would em'y one Southern State. “The Midwest will never go back to normalcy. It will never go back to Harding and Coolidge. The Mid- west is on a trek to Utopia and West- ern Republicans are pretty well set to march.” White disposed of former President Hoover pointedly. “As for Hoover,” he said, “he will either remain impossible or become inevitable, and nothing he can do, or that the Republicans can do, will change the situation.
