Excerpt from Hearing Before the Joint Committee on Printing, Sixty-Second Congress: Relative to the Rejection by the Public Printer of Machine-Finish and Supercalendered Book Printing Paper on Account of Its Containing Clay Filler in Excess of the Amount Shown by the Standard Samples as Fixed Upon by the Joint Committee on Printing; Held

The Chairman. Perhaps I had better say before you proceed, so you can take the matter up as you go along, that I have here a report showing the tests of machine-finished printing paper delivered by all of the companies that furnish the Government Printing Office with that class of paper. I notice that it shows deliveries of machine finish paper by the R. P. Andrews Paper Co., commencing with inspection No. 1782, giving ash percentages as follows: 9.48, 11.95, 14.90, 13.40, 9.90, 8.93, 8.17, 5.90, 13.40. 11.20, 15.35, 12.38, 11.00, 13.65, 11.68, 12.22, 16.87, 12.20, 11.98, and 12.08. Beginning with inspection No. 2054, this report shows the delivery of machine-finish paper with ash percentages as follows: 5.15, 5.70, 5.55, and 4.10.

On the supercalendered deliveries, beginning with inspection No.1845, lot 22. the percentages of ash are as follows: 17.03, 13.43, 17.72, 15.78, 15.00, 13.88, 19.82, 15.42, 13.08, 18.30, 16.12, 13.30, 14.87, and 10.35. Beginning with inspection No. 2083, lot No. 20, the ash percentages were 5.40 and 8.23.

Mr. Moore. Those, I understand, are all deliveries under the pending contract?

The Chairman. Yes; and the standard sample adopted by the Joint Committee on Printing for the contract year 1911-12, for sized and supercalendered book printing paper (class C), shows 5.65 per cent of ash. and the standard sample for machine-finished book printing paper, shows 1.05 percent of ash. Now, this is the record, and I would like to have you speak to that.

Mr. Moore. Those are the discrepancies concerning which you wish me to talk. I wish to say, first of all, that we are surprised at this rejection, because under our contention the rejection is made under a misapprehension or the misconstruction of the contract by the Public Printer. We take the position that the grounds of the objection and the grounds of the rejection are not in anywise covered by this contract -

The Chairman. So there may be no misunderstanding as to my attitude, and I think I ought to state it before the committee, I don't want you to charge that up to the Public Printer. I want you to charge that direct to the Joint Committee on Printing, so you may know that is our construction of the contract.

Mr. Moore. I am very glad you have made that suggestion, Mr. Chairman, because it brings us right down to the issue and the facts. Neither the specifications contained in the proposal nor the contract speak of the ash percentage at all, and the very fact that this contract does undertake to specify certain things which shall and shall not be done, would seem to exclude as a part of the contract that which is not mentioned.

Now this contract goes on to state "the said paper is to be in color, quality, and in every respect, equal to the standard of paper fixed upon by the Joint Committee on Printing and preserved in the said Government Printing Office," quality there being the essential, and the standards were construed to be and to mean standards of quality. The contract then goes on to state what the paper must not contain. Now these things were of such importance, conceived to be by the committee in preparing these exceptions, that they were enumerated. Then the samples which were furnished, on the face of them, referred to the thickness, strength, etc., and, of course, the color is also mentioned.
