He did not say if the couple was also being ordered to leave Iran. Behzadnia’s statement, quoted by Pars, said the agency’s two Iranian reporters, Ali Reza Jahanshahi and Fereshteh Emamy, “will not coop erate with this bureau.” As for the Tatros, he said they were “working unofficially with the agency.” The AP bureau in Tehran said, however, the couple had been issued accreditation cards by Behzadnia before Tuesday’s an nouncement. The press chief accused the AP correspondents of “biased and dis torted reporting which provoked world public opinion.” Eight Western correspondents had been expelled before, including reporters for The Los Angeles Times and The New York Times. Newsprint shortage eases off United Press International NEW YORK — The newsprint shortage has eased a hit but, with inventories depleted and prices ris ing to $375 a ton this fall, publishers are trying to conserve, a UPI survey shows. In addition to a $30-per-ton man ufacturer’s price increase for news print, newspapers are feeling the pinch of steadily increasing rates the railroads are charging to freight the paper from mills. The supply of newsprint is im proving now that strikes at major mills have been settled, but demand continues to strain the supply and publishers are taxed to rebuild de pleted inventories. The Canadian Pulp and Paper As sociation reported world demand for newsprint rose to 23.6 million met ric tons in 1978, an increase of 1 mil lion metric tons from 1977 levels. The United States accounted for 9.8 million tons, 41 percent of world demand, it said. Several major paper producers will open new mills that should sig nificantly ease the supply problem by 1981. Until then, publishers say they must continue to conserve. The UPI survey of newspaper editors showed newsprint availa bility has improved slightly, papers generally are maintaining the pres ent size of “news holes’ hut are in creasing the number of shorter stories used. Some major papers, such as the New York Times and the Los Angeles Times, own their own paper mills. Tom Johnson, president of the LA Times, said the company buys whatever additional paper it needs from Oregon, and also benefits from an efficiently designed page makeup and an accelerated conservation program. Bob Hollingsworth, vice presi dent of the Dallas Times Herald, said he tries to keep a 30-day in ventory to protect against a strike or a shutdown. “But I sure don’t have that now.” Publisher Raymond Preddy says his Waco (Texas) Tribune-Herald hasn’t tightened its news space but inventory and delivery are prob lems: “You’re running on a more narrow margin — a 20-to 30-day supply rather than 60. ” At the Robinson (111.) Daily News, Managing Editor Byron Tracy says, “We’ve gone to briefs to cut back on the length of the story.” Burlington (Vt.)_ Free Press Editor James Welch said his paper was affected by the newsprint short age about a month ago, hut the worst is over. “We went through a period about a month ago where we had to tighten up. Right now, that’s not happening,’’ said Welch. “Con sciously or unconsciously, it played a part in what we sent our reporters after, based on the knowledge that we were working with a smaller news hole.” “It’s tight,” says General Manager Roy Anderson of the Baltimore News American’s inventory. “We had both our supply mills on strike at the same time. One has gone back to work, but the other still is on strike. We have been scurrying around to find other supplies. 9.775% Interest and some nice people. Homestead offers both. 9.775% Interest...
