WASHINGTON, May 3.-Five and

predicted by Frank A. Munsey, New
York publisher. Before the senate
committee investigating the news
print paper shortage, he urged drastic
reduction in use of news print and
governmental regulation Of the paper
and the wood pulp sources.
William Randolph Hearst, another
New York publisher, in letter, adj
vocated a 20 or Is per cent cut in the
size of newspapers but said that he
believed time for governmental regula-
ton had passed. He urged publish
ers to double advertising and circula-
ton rates, saying that such action
would automatically cut the size and
number of copies without reducing
revenue.
The, government could not reduce
news print consumption by regulating
pages of papers admitted to the mails,
Mr.. Munsey said because scarcely no
large city dailies rely on mail circula-
ton.
Mr. Munsey advocated regulations
limiting the Sunday edition to the
size OF the week day issue. mot more
than twenty-four pages" Mr.. Hearst
wrote he had cut the size of his papers
90 and Is per cent without adversely
affecting his revenue or causing com

MI. Munsey said that when spot
paper went to II cents pound he
ceased buying and relied on contract
news for which he pays five cents.
Asked if it was not true that the
small country publishers had no con-
tracts and were forced to rely on
brokers buying on the spot market,
Mr.. Munsey said he believed that such
was the case, but added that many
city publishers were in a similar stu

SPRING FEWER

(BY DR. VALENTINE Morr.)

At this time of year most people
suffer from what we term "spring
fever" because of a stagnant con-
dition of the blood, because of the
toxins (poisons) stored up within
the body during the long winter.
We eat too much meat, with little
or no green vegetables.
Bloodless people, thin, anernic
people, those with pale cheeks and
lips, who have a poor appetite and
feel that tired, worn or feverish
condition in the spring-time of the
year, should try the refreshing tonic
powers of a good Alternative and
blood purifier. Such a tonic as
druggists have sold for fifty years,
is DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery. It is a standard remedy
that can be obtained in tablet Or
liquid form. Made without alcohol
from wild roots and banks.
