Lavarre and Hall, "Who ;werc witnesses at the fcommission's hearing, investigating newspaper financial interests in the International Paper and Power company, testified that the |870,000 loan completely financed their purchase of the Augusta, Ga., Chronicle, the Columbia, >8. C. Record, and the Spartanburg Herald and Journal. . ? The loan was made on notes given by them to the International Paper and Power company subsidiary, the International Paper Co., and the notes were secured by the newspaper# stock. Lavarre testified that the arrangements for the financing of the newspaper purchases were made last November by Hall and himself with Archibald R. Graustein of Boston, president of the International Paper and Power company. Asked whether, the InternationnI Paper company supplied all the money paid for this purchase, LaArre replied affirmatively and said that the International company had loaned him the funds on notes secured by the stock of the newspapers. "The stock of the newspaper haaa been morally turned over to the International Paper company" Lavarre said, "but the stock is physically in a safety deposit vault in the Chase National bank of New York." He ad ded that the stock certificates of the newspaper had not been assigned or delivered to the International company. ? -In- his "testimony Lavarre related several unsuccessful efforts to purchase southern - newspapers. On his first trip south In {September J.928, he said he and Hall and a Mr. BeWitt, a New York newspaper broker, visited Bv H. Peace, publisher of the Greenville, S. C. News and the Piedmont but Peace would not consider the sale. I In Asheville, Lavarre testified, he conferred with the owners of the, Asheville , Times and the ^ Asheville Citizen and suggested purchase price for the two pewspapers but "made no ] deal." In Charlotte, N. C., Mf. Lavarre said that he also talked with the publishers of the Charlotte Observer and the Charlotte News but made no offers for these newspapers. In answer to a question by R. E. Healy, chief cofnmission counsel, as to hbw he came to seek aid from the paper company, Lavarre replied: "I suggested it to myself after I' had heard about their financing of the Chicago papers." He added that he thought it was "a logical tie-up between newspapers and a paper company.

People Should Know I r Who is Behind Move ! . Abbeville, April 30.?Commenting on Washington news dispatches in-1 diculing tluit I urge eastern power ''interests" have recently purchased control of certain daily newspapers in South Carolina, State Senator feed West, who is also president of I the State Press association said to-1 night that the people of the state "should know who stands behind these newspapers and the purpose for which they are purchased." Mr. West's statement follows: "The press of South Carolina has I always stood for the upbuilding of the state. It has stood unswerved by influence of any kind, and unmindful I of personal gain, always maintaining the t ights of the people. The in-1 tegnty of the South Carolina editor! hus never been questioned. As pres-1 ident of the State Press association I I believe t lut any organization has the I I right to purchase newspaper proper-1 ties when and where they please. I But the people should know who L stands behind those properties and I the purposes for which they are purchased. Especially is that true in view of the revelations of two years 4fco. As t\ state senator and as rep-1 J tescntative of the people 1 believe that every phase of the matter should be given to the people of the state. If this information is not revealed freely and willingly theii it should be forced through legislative investigation. The development of our state is inevitable and her people certainly do not want to be strangled by a subsidized press." A Sure Refuge On one of the many suburban trains in and out of Chicago two wo- j ipen seat mates were speaking of places to go for summer vacations. Said one: "We went to a resort not far from Duluth last year, but we'll never go there again. Irish people swarmed all over the place." Answered the other: "Well, we fbund the same trouble at a place up iii Canada?just too many Irish!" ^either had noticed a quaint figure in the sent directly ahead until she turned squarely about, the map of Ireland done in indignant red on her round face.
