10S complaints against tle Hell Tele

and rental ra,tes was begun before the
Public Service Commission this morning
In the Hone caucus room in theCnpitol.
The Hell company wafe given an op

hearing got well under wny that the
commission would continue the hear
ings in Harrlsburg and would not sit In
various cities over the state ns had been
hinted.
Kdward M. Abbott, counsel for the
rutted Business Men's Association,
Philadelphia, asked tho commission to
go to L'niiadelpiiia to take testimony.
"You cnn fllc tImt Indns a motion
innn tne commission." replied unair
I man Atney to Abbott's request, "but
I I don't think it is possible for the com
I mission to" go nil over the state."
One million calls a day in 'Philadel

business In that city, according to the
data submitted to the commission by
Mr. Swayzc.
The increase lu wages alone between
August 1, 1018, and March 1. 1020.
said Mr. Swayze, amounted to .$.",
450.000 nnd during the war the com
pany wns compelled to draw upon its
reserve materials "until It is now con
fronted with the necessity of building
new plants to meet the demand or to I
refuse service to new subscribers." I
it was estimated by the attorney that
the new rates will produce about $,",-
S00.000. nnd necessity of meeting labor
.ondttions ns to hours, holidays, vaca-
tlons and wages, will absorb about $2.-

i LAMBERTON STILL
Sheriff Ctat for Delany to Mako
Victory Over Varos "Com
ploto" Hero ,
WANh CONNELLY IN FIFTH
Sheriff Lambcrton cleared up the po
litical ntmosnhcrc somewhat today by
asserting he was. "100 per cent with
Mayor Moore" In the latter's figlit
against the Vnrcs.
Politicians nnd administration lead
ers believed n real split bad developed
between tho Mayor and the Sheriff. Mr.
iLamberton's support of James J. Con
nelly for Congress from the inttu dis
trict was regarded ns an indication of
the frncture.T
But the aherlff gave leaders 'some
thing else to think about when he came
out this morning for Charlfs Delany.
administration candidate for Congress
from the Third dlstrlot, in opposition to
former Sheriff Ranslcy, the Varo can
didate. "I am for Mr. Delany." the sheriff
said, "because lie Is leading the fight
against: the Vnres.
"The drive to beat the Varo bosses
was only half won last fall nnd to make
the victory complete the voters of the
Third Congressional district should sup
port Mr. Delany. From what I know
of the situation, he is in every wny
qualified to represent such nn important
district."
The significance of Mr. Lnmberton's
support of Mr. Connelly lies In the fact
tho administration Is supporting Con
gressman Peter K. Costello. Alfred M.
Waldron is the Vare candldnte.
In nn open-air meeting for Connelly
last night nt 2123 Kast York street, Mr.
Lamherton decried objection to Connelly
because the candldnte is not a college
graduate. The Sheriff said he has seen
"enough of high-brows in politics," and
declared what Is needed is "n man who
will always be on the job."

made by the International Paper Co.
on July 1, said n telegram from Chester
Vi'. Lyman, vice preordent of the com
pany, which wns presented today to the
Senntc committee JnvcstlRatlns the
paper shortage.
The message, addressed to Joseph
Pulitzer. Jr.. publisher of the St.
Louis Post Dispatch, follows:
"Alarming rise In prices for pulp
wood, other raw materials and mill
supplies, together with incvltnblo in
crease in transportation charges, will
necessitate a higher selling price 'for
last two quarters. Impossible" to fore
tell extent of increnHe ou nocount of
uncertainty of conditions. Increase iu
cost likely to continue to turning point
reached in general industrial, social nnd
financial conditions.
Economy Is Urged
"Only remedy for present trouble is
rigid economy by publishers 'in their
use of news print. It would be -the
height of foVr for government to nttcinut
to regulate or lower spot market, oner-1
ouk as i( may appear, ns it would re
sult in diversion of many specialty
mills now mailing news print to their
nominal product. This addition to
present newsprint supply, stimulated by
the high prices of the spot markjct. Is
estimated at about ir0,000 tons n year,
"High snot market prices largely
warranted by scarcity of raw material
and corresponding high prices. In most
eases believe the profits are not in
ordinate. Small publishers must be
helped out by larger consumers protected
by contracts."
