10 PER GENT. CUT IN NEWSPAPERS DEMANDED Government Takes Action to Conserve Supply of
 Newsprint Paper.

Washington, Dec. 17.-Every news paper in the country was called upon today by the house post office commit tee to reduce it's consumption of newsprint paper by ten per cent for a period of six months in an effort to relieve the present serious short age, which the committee has been told threatened the destruction of a. number of small papers.
 Voluntary cooperation of publish CTS would obviate the necessity for oppressive governmental action said the committee statement which was prepared by Chairman Steenerson. Members of the committee said that if the publishers carried out the VOL untary conservation plan, further ac- ton on the Anthony bill to limit the size of newspapers and periodicals using the second class mail privilege would be postponed for the present at least
 MT. Steenerson's statement to the newspaper publishers follows:
 The committee considered the shortage in the newsprint paper sup ,plyaand believe that unless consump- ton can be materially reduced it will result in the destruction of large HulHO0l Ol nGWSpdptIS III lllC cities and towns and inflict irrepara- ble injury on the communities served by them and having in mind the great results accomplished during the war by the voluntary and patriotic cooperation of the people in saving food, fuel and other necessaries, in which you had creditable part, we ap- peal to you to reduce consumption of newsprint paper by at least ten per cent during the next six months thereby averting the threatened injury and obviating the necessity for re- pressive measures in the future.'

WATERBURY TO PAY
 FOR CARELESSNESS
Federal Court Awards $7, 300 Damages As Result of Drowning Accident
 In Lake There.

Hartford, Dec. 17.--After about an the jury in the federal court brought in a verdict of S7, 300 and costs against the city of Waterbury in favor of Donate Becce, administrator of the estate of Antonio Becce who was drowned in Lakewood lakes June i. A motion to set aside the verdict was argued before Judge Garvin late this afternoon. The jury was excused from further attendance in court until January at II a. m.
 The drowning of Becce, 29 years old, his cousin, Vito Lavange, and a baby, Pasquale Becce, a son of one Vito Becce, resulted in three suits each for $1O,000 against the city of Waterbury by Donate Becce, who is adm inistrator of each estate and is a citizen of Italy, thereby getting his actions before a federal court and jury. Disposition of the other suits is expected to depend on the one just decided.
 It was the claim of the administra- a- tor that 22 feet of railing was ab- sent from the side of the road at the embankment and that a horse driven by the deceased Becce fell over back ward into the lake. The city was charged with negligence.
 In defense the city claimed that An tonic Becce knew very little about driving a horse, that the animal be- came unmanagea ble and that Becce actually pulled the horse backwa I'd into the lake.

 AS explained by MT. Wilbor this morning, Mir. Wise was at one time .he proprietor of the Russwin Hotel and it was while under his direction that the hotel prospered.

Councilman Has System
 For Cutting Shoe Costs

Charles H. Gillian, a local bushes man and a member of the common council, has devised a system by which he feels he will be able to wrench from shoe dealers some of the profits from the sale of shoes. He has figured that an ordinary pair of shoes costs $14; while an ordinary pair of rubbers costs but $1. By wearing rubbers at all times he feels he can double the life of his shoes and he will. therefore. save money
 He says the fact that he may appear eccentric when wearing rubbcrs when climatic conditions do not warrant will not restrain him from carrying out his plan. -, -. s.-

Morris Cohn, a wholesale grocer, against whom a complaint was made yesterday by William Trewhella, a Church street grocer, because he refused to sell him any sugar admits that he received a carload of sugar on Monday of this week, but not two carloads, as MT. Trewhella states. MT. Cohn further denies the statc- ment that he informed MT. Trewhella that he had no sugar, but he, does admit that he refused to sell any to the latter. MT. Cohn claims he is disposing of his sugar as fast as he can procure it and is looking after his own trade and supplying his cus- toners as far. as possible. At no time has he ever hoarded any sugar or any other foodstutf, but has always been glad to accomn odate his customers, which he is doing today, he concludes.
