has been effected and that a majority
of the newspapers have put into ef-'
feet practical economies and are cut
ting size and number of editions,
elimiting wastage, increasing selling
prices and raising advertising rates.

that the situation, while serious does
not justify Government action or the
passage OF any OF the various meas
tires which have been introduced in
Congress. the belief being that the
results already achieved. the higher
prices for spot cotton and the adop-
Jon Of newspapers generally of the
spirit of tho resolution above will
finally meet the situation. p.

newspapers. most of Thorn not NOM
bers of the association, asking all who
were unable to secure news print in
rolls to advise tho association SO that
it might yendeavor to put them in
touch with a source of supply.
