hours General Gavira has been without
ncws of what is transpiring ut the
scene OF the reported fighting Tuesday

On the American side communica-

The mystery over what is happening
between Juarez and Casas Grandes is
deeper than ever. The distance be-
tween these two towns is about thir-
teen miles. General Gayira declared
Tuesday that he was sending out a
repair train under guard to restore
the wires and report on what caused
their interruption. Early Wednesday
no report had been received and the

SAVE WA STE PAPER

(By G. W. Dudderar. secretary of
the board Of trade.)
The federal department of COM
merce, William c. Redfield secretary.
brings TO our attention an alarming
shortage of material for the manll-
facture Of paper and suggests the saw
ing Of waste paper and rags. The de-
partmert is making known this fact
as widely as possible and urging the
collection OF paper and rags through
local dealers to improve conditions
confronting our American paper man
ufacturers.
Something like $4,000 tons of DIFF
ferent kinds of paper and paper board
are manufactured every day in the
United States and large proportion
of this. after 1t has served It's purpose.
could be used over again In some class
of paper. A large part of 1t. however,
Is either burned or otherwise wasted.
This, OF course, has to be replaced by
new materials. In the early history
of the paper industry publicity was
given TO the Importance OF saving
rags. 1t is OF scarcely less import
ance now. The department OF com-
merce is glad to bring this matter TO
the attention of the public in the hope
that practical results may flow from
1t. A little attention to the saving OF
rags and old papers will mean gem
uine relief to our paper industry and
a diminishing drain upon our sources
~ Fars MANI
The secretary of the board OF trade
will be supplied with list of whole
sale dealers in paper stock and would
be glad to supply these names to any
local buyers of paper and rags. We
believe this matter should be given
serious consideration. particularly as
1t is worthy fthe active effort OF our
United States Department Of Com-
merce.
