ADuITERATED PAPER
Used in Government Printing Office
Causes a Change.

Washington, Dee. 21.-Discovery by
the Congressional joint committee on
printing that "adulterated" paper had
been used for years in the government
printing office led to the announcement
of a complete new set of paper stand
ards, The paper adulteration was ae-
|compished by the substitution of clay
FOR the more substantial wood or rag
|fibres, leading to the grave fear that
many of the printed records of the gov
eminent will crumble and become I'M
readable in less than an century.
The Joint committee has been at
work for more than a year in an eff
fort to bring about a reform and
Standardization of paper purchased for
the government and amounting to
more than $1,000.000 yearly. The pub
lie printer, today, was authorized to
advertise Tor bids on $4,000 pounds of
paper for the year beginning March /,
nex;.
In the new specifications the use OF
clay and mineral filler is closely re-
strieted. The committee was told that
the use of clay in excess of printing
requirements was held by paper exs
ports to be deliberate adulteration,
having the effect of cheapening the
cost to the manufacturer and lessening
the durability to the government. 1t
was discovered that much of the paper
used for many years had been of this
character.
Included for the first time in the
vast amount OF paper the government
will buy, next year, will be 100000
pounds of news print paper. A large
Quantity of this cheaper paper will be
used in the printing of Congressman
speeches the coming campaign year. as
