The differences made up from advertisements is given the sub- much better article than his subscrip- tion ‘price alone will produce. The pos- tal committee of the Periodical Pub- exact figures from the books of ac- counts of the five standard monthly magazines which carried the most a vertising in 1909. These figures of profits are on file in the department of commerce and labor. The ageresate final net profits of these five magazines are less than ore-tenth of the aggre- gate advertising income. Readers Benefit by Advertising. “The reader gots the balance. This operation of large-advertising receipts passed over to the:seader in the shape of a better magazine than his sub- scription money will make, 2dit and de- liver ‘accounts for the phenomenon of the splendid low priced, widsly read American perfodicals. “On Mr: Hitchcock's own figures, in his statement, showing that the pro- posed postal change would mean only two cents a pound postage on the whole magazine, though as the bill stands it would mean more, it is easily calculated that the proposed increase would raise less than $2,500,000 for the postoffice department, from which must e subtracted the great new expense of administering this complex -and dis- criminatory measure. o Wipe Out Profits of Many. “On the other hand, it would entirely wipe out the profits of many periodi- cals, magazines, agricultural papers, religious papers and trade journals and seriously cripple the balance. Thil\has Dbeen made plaln by hundreds of pub- lishers who have communicated with their congressmen, giving their exact profits.” The periodical publishers say they do not consider it necessary to discuss Mr. Hitchcock’s attempt to question the official figures of the. publishers' profits by his citition of the wild guesses of the concern trying to sell stock to the public by mail. President Taft Favors Increase. Washington, Feb. 14—President Taft emphasized to visitors today his own position in favor of the magaizne postage increase. He took occasion to deny published statements that he was opposed to magazines, either b cause of the so-called “muck raking” propensities of some, or because of at- tacks made on him, on the fepublican party, or on anybody else. His sole object, according to his own declara- tion today, in favoring the increase of the rates in question, was his desire to save the postoffice department from being run as “a losing proposition.” NO VOTE YET ON LORIMER CASE Senator Bailey Concludes Speech Defense of lilinois Man. ‘Washington, Feb. 14.—An effort to fix a day for a vote in the senate on | the Lorimer case was made today, but | once more it failed.

Tempering his objection with' some measure of balm for the opponents of the Tllinois senator, Mr. Burrows said that in time there would be a vote.
