Under the head of New Business,-
The principal industry of Port Angeles is the manufacture of paper,
And it appearing, that the industry is being seriously impaired by the importation
of foreign paper, and
It further appearing, that it is the duty of every good citizen to proteSt a con-
dition that permits the importation of paper to the injury of not only labor, stock-
holders and owners of plants but also every citizen of the community,
Therefore, the follillwing telegram was sent to the Secretary of State, ~ordell Hull,
who f1:xes the quotas and tariffs on paper and all other products shipped into the United
States.

Honorable Cordell Hull,
Secretary of State,
Washington, D.C.
The principal industry of Port Angeles and the Olympio Penninsula is manufaoture of
paper. Present rate of importation of foreign paper is impairing our payrolls and the
I economic growth of our oommUni ty. Our papermakers are largely permanent citizens who
are now in danger of losing homes if present conditions are allowed to continue. We are
alarmed at the rapidity increasing foreign importation of paper and t.he steadily decreasing
domestic production and urgently request that you establish a quota which will permit
domeatio manufacture of a t least one million five hundred thoullland~ tons of paper
annually which is only about bne"half of normal consumption.
