WASHINGTON, D. C. Feb. 17.
President Wilson threatens to take
"emergency measures' unless the pa
per manufacturers come to terms
with the publlcrs. and it is suggest
ed that they arbttrato with the trade
(ommlssion. It was learned today.
Secretary McAdoo told prominent
manufacturers that It Is unlawful for
any coiporatlon to Interfere with the
freedom of the press, and unless It Is
stopped nnd prices are adjusted satis
factorily, a bill would be forced
through congress, enabling tbe gov
eminent to selzo and operate the
country's biggest manufactories.
Grants Pass project this year, going
as fnr south as California to get the
land.
One farmer made $175 an acre off
his land last year. His expense waa
$00 an acre, and he cleared up 1115
an ncro, says Mr. Goettsche. It takes
good Innd and the best results are
from irrigated land. The price has
gone up this year from 5 cents last
year to 7 cents this year, be says.
Tho Idaho-Utah company Is anxious
to put In plants wherever they can,
aud Klamath Falls Is often mentioned
by tho officials' as a favorable location,
says Goettsche,
