PAPER SHORTAGE
GROWING SERIOUS
Size Of Paper and Advance in
Advertising Rates.

New York. Nov. 12.-lncreased ad-
vertising rates and reduction in the
seize OF newspapers were urged today
by Franklin p. Glass, of Birmingham
Ala. president of the American News
paper Publishers Association at a
special meeting here to consider the
newsprint shortage.
Every paper" he said should
agree to cut down its average number
Of pages both weekday and Sunday
by a considerable percentage and
then hold down It's advertising volume
to a fixed number of pages This will
probably necessitate an arbitrary re-
duction of at least 39 per cent in vol
ume of business. Radical advances
could he made in advertising rates.
The percentage OF increase should be
such that they will hold back the flux
of advertising that has poured into
our offices and bid fare to continue TO
during the next year"
Declaring that European newspap-
ers during the war reduced their size

rates so they earned more than before

of advertising rates will not work any
financial hardship here

MAY CALL SPECIAL SESSION
Legislature May Be Called to Smooth
Out Prohibition Tanule.

Montpelier, Nov. 12-There is a
good prospect that the Vermont legis-
latnre will be called into session dur
ing the winter and agitation along
these lines is already noted. the prin.
cipal underlying reason being the de-
side of the secretary of state to have
the prohibition tangle smoothed out
so that the state will not be put to an
expense of over $4,000 in voting on
local option next spring at time
when the entire country will be dry"
by federal law.
The agitation for a special session
carries with it the desire besides the
repeal of the local option law a desire
for a Drohibitory enforcement act.
Unless the local option law is repeal.
ed by the legislature, Secretary of
State Black must print Eyes" and mo"
ballots, cards of instruction and so
forth and the towns throughout the
state must go through the form of
voting on the license question when
the result will in no way effect the
sale of liquor.
A special session of the legislatS.==s
would also bring the Woman Suffrage
amendment to the fore with a pros
pect of the general assembly passing
the proposed federal constitutional
amendment.
Secretary of State Black will ask
Attorney General Archibald for an
opinion if he must proceed as in the
past with the preparation of license
ballots for the March elections.

WINTERS skIRMIsH LINE
Snowflakes Warn Of What is Coming
to Us in Near Future.

The rain of last night and this af-
ternoon was followed by few snow
flakes around noon to warn the in
habitants OF the so-called temperate
zone that Emperor Winter had put
forward his skrmish line and that
the main army was not far in the
'rea;.
Weather sharks, who have eX.
amined the corn husks and the shells
on hickery nuts have been predicting
an open winter. a prediction that all
hope Will be correct. However, this
section of the country has been hand
ed one sample that looks like the
genuine article.
Persons living in Bennington, who
have not had occasion to leave the vii
lage lately have little knowledge of
the oXtcnt Of the recent snow storm.
The Immediate vicinity Of Benning
ton, IS has often proved the case in
the past, seems to have been favored
but in many sections of the county
there was an unusually heavy fall of
snow for early November
In sheltered spots on Searsburg the
snow fell to a depth of nearly two
feet and the mountains in Woodford
and Glastonbury were covered to a
depth of from II to Is inches. For
two or three days lumbermen hauled
logs on sleds in the vicinity of Fay
vile and sleighs were in use in sew
eral sections in the county. On Mount
Anthony. on the other side of the val.
ley, the snow remained intact for
number of days and it was not until
Wednesday that the white covering of
the hills disappeared.

In the meantime, the department is
continuing its countrywide investiga-

action to choke down debate on the
peace treaty was decided on by the
ltreatys friends in the Senate today to
meet developments regarded by many
senators as the beginning of tilibus-
ter against ratification
Two petitions to invoke the Sen

reconcilably opposed TO the treaty.
The first. proposal was drawn by the
Democrats and the others were being
formulated tonight by the mild reser-
walton group of Republicans.
Under the rule, which could be
made effective beginning Saturday by
a two-thirds vote, no senator could
speak more than one hour in all until
a vote on ratification had been reach
ed. No specific time could be set un
der the provision for such vote but
the leaders predicted that it would
force final action, ii resorted to. ear
~ next week,
To further hasten the treaty it was
tentatively agreed to hold night ses-
sions of the Senate beginning tomor
row night and continuing until there
has been a ratification vote.
The movement for cloture was star
ted after Senator Reed, Democrat,
Missouri, had launched into another
long speech attacking the treaty, and
Senator's LaFollette Wisconsin, and
France. Maryland. Republicans, had
indicated they were ready to continue
the fight as soon as the Missouri SEN
ator concluded. Senator Reed occupi-
ed all of today's rhres.hour session
and intimated at adjournment that
he would continue for several hours

Buffalo, Nov. 12-The American

Hoover said Many of these foreign

destruction of our primary institutions
and defiance of our laws. The Amer

with this attitude. 1t may develop
out of this that the open door towards
Europe will be, in a large measure,
closed But worse than this, there
may develop out of it a prejudice

of agitation" he continued.
