PORT NEMs NOTES.

The American schooner Susie B.
Dantzler, Capt. Frank Dethoff, with a
cargo of sisal arrived at Mobile Sun
day from Progresso, Mexico. The in
auguration of an import service by
schooners promises to augment the
maritime commerce of the gulf coast.
With the early construction Of the
public docks on Pascagoula river our
port will share in the importation of
sisal, sugar, rubber, fruits and dye
wood from the Latin American cOun-
tries. Capt. Dethoff, who is veteran
mariner of this pot, has displayed fine
business qualifications by soliciting
The Susie B. Dantzler runs regularly

carrying lumber. 1t is to be hoped
that the city wharf will be ready for
receiving the next sisal cargo.
Warrior River steam barge No. 2,
received temporary repairs at the
government ship docks in the first part
of the week and left Tuesday for Mo-
bile. This large coal lighter sprung
a leak and was beached with five feet
of water in the hold. Engine troubles
prevented the barge from going direct
to the home port.
On Monday last the new barge,
Spring, built at the Gulf Ship Com
pany's yard, formerly the Frentz ship
yard, was launched successfully. The
dimensions are: 80 feet in length by
30 feet wide. This well constructed
lighter is the property of Capt. Fl. H.
Cole.
The barge Remus is undergoing gen.
eral repairs at the Gulf Ship Com
pany's yard.
The work of repairing the schooner
M. A. Achorn at the Gulf Ship Com
pany's yard is progressing well.
Passenger and freight service be-
tween the port of Pascagoula and Ha-
vana, Cuba, with calls at the Isle of
Pines, may soon become reality. The
progressive spirit Of the business men
of this port is being felt in shipping
circles.
The Derks-Blodgett basin and term
inal dock would make an admirable
fuel oil depot for steam barges and
other oil burning craft.
The days are busy at the Interna-
tional Ship Building Company's big
plant. Work on the large steel ships
is progressing satisfactorily
Extensive deposits of fuel oil may
soon be brought to the surface here.

Paper CRISIS
GROWS WORSE
Supply Inadequate for Papers In 1920
Many Small Paper May Suspend.

New York, Nov. 2O-The joint meet
ing Of the board of directors and the
paper committee of the American
Newspaper Publishers Association
here followed the same general line as
the meeting of the executive committee
OF the Southern Newspaper Publishers
Association held in Nashville week
earlier, it was learned today.
After considerable discussion it was
decided to send representation from
the paper committee to call on the Of
ficers OF the International Paper Com
pany and urge the prorating of the
proposed reduced production of this
paper manufacturing concern for 1920
The committee also recommended
that all publishers Immediately inaugu.
rate campaign for paper saving. The
office of the American Newspaper Pub.
fishers Association here will immedi.
ately send out copy to all publishers,
members and non-members as well, for
carrying out plan for strict conserva
tion Of their news-print supply.
Another resolution was passed sug
gesting marked increase in advertising
rate as means for keeping down the
volume of newsprint consumption and
it was also suggested that wherever
local coalitions make it practicable or
desirable that subscription rates be in.
creased in the larger cities, thus to
mean cent daily paper and 10
cent Sunday paper.
The newsprint situation apparently
becomes more desperate daily. The
best price quoted here this week is u
cents fob. the mill, or nearly four hun
dred per cent over the pre-war price,
and dealers say that the spot market
Is likely to be cents within a very
short time.
Information before the paper com.
mittee of the American Newspaper AS
sociation, indicates that at the present
rate of consumption it is not possible
for the demand to be supplied next
year. Thus far newspapers able to pay
the price have found some means for
securing supply. 1t does not follow,
however, that this will continue to be
the case. The prospect is without a
reduction in consumption it will not be
possible for all Of the newspapers in
the United States to secure paper to
run through March on the present
basis of consumption. 1t is estimated
that less than fifty papers of the coun-
try are now assured of an adequate
supply for 1920. 1t is estimated that
it will take two years for mill con-
struction to catch up.
