To Press Subscribers-The high cost
of material and new postal laws make
it imperative that subscriptions to the
Press be paid promptly. This is not
our choice, but a necessity. These
changed conditions in the publishing
business positively prohibit the old
custom of carrying unpaid subscrip-
tions. The Press hopes that all of its
subscribers will realize these things,
and promptly send in their subscrip-
lions. 1 3Ot3
