This article presents information on political happenings in the U.S. during 1929. The testimony of Owen D. Young, a U.S. lawyer, on domestic and international communication facilities before the U.S. Senate Committee on Interstate Commerce has been front-page news, and deserved to be Young's words count in business and political circles on both sides of the Atlantic, indeed in all quarters where knowledge, intelligence, honesty and public spirit matter. The outburst of alarm on the part of members of American Newspaper Publishers Association over a proposed increase of $5 per ton in the price of Canadian newsprint appears to have been attended first by heat and then by light.
