NEWSPRINT CRISIS.
Feared Many Publications Will Go
under From Increasing Pressure

CHICAGO, Nov. 10.-The high
price and scarcity of print paper is
having its effect on the metropolitan
dailies as is indicated by an announce
ment of the Chicago Tribune that, un-
til the present emergency is passed,
thesize of the paper would be limited
to a daily average of 80 pages. The
announcement reads:
"By reason Of the severe shortage
Of newsprint throughout the country,
and the consequent obligation of news
papers everywhere to conserve paper,
commencing Monday, November 8, the
Chicago Tribune will restrict the av-
erage size of its daily issues to 80
pages until the need forconservation is
past. The 32-page average will be
maintained each week, and should any
week day issue exceed 80 pages, other
issues in the same week will be cor
respondingly reduced in size to secure
the average"
The limitation on the size of the
daily editions follows a recent increase
in advertising rates due to the higl
price Of paper and the increasing cost
of newspaper production.
