BIG CUT IN PRINT PAPER

Voluntary reduction OF news print

The publiUhers must recognize
that they are consuming more than

THE size OF papers is hardly a sub

the elimination OF extra editions.
Repeal OF the excess prohts tax and

trouble began with the excess prohts

means of evading the tax.
smaller publishers are most hurt
declared Mr.. Colver, because the
larger publishers are keeping paper

The contract price, he declared

The production of all grades of

any preceding year. The increase

EXPRESS COMPANY SAYS
MUST INCREASE RATES

New efforts to improve the stand
ards of the express service through
out the country are contemplated by
the American Railway Express Com
pany. which will continue the hand
ling of the business as a single unit
for the time being at least.
A statement to this effect was
made today by Agent w. B. Sears
in charge of the local express office
in urging shippers to be patient and
to lend their cooperation in bettering
the express service.
Now that the American Railway
Express Company is operating under
its own management" said Agent W..
B. Sears, we are gradually returning
20 normal conditions and are intro
ducing great many changes in
methods which we expect will, within
reasonable time. show results very
satisfactory to shippers.
we have already accomplished
much since the time of the merger
in 1918 and the service is generally
considered good. But we do not say
i canno. be improved and that is
our aim. Yet we cannot promise
immediate improvement, owing to
the unsettled conditions that have to
be faced during this period of read
'ustment. With the Improvement
of the railroad service and with more
facilities in cars and terminals, we
believe that we can show great pro-
gress in this direction.
at is out of the question to consi-
der what some people cali, the TN
Scrambling' Of the American Rail-
way Express without greatly unset
ting the whole express business and
doing more harm than good to the
shipping public. The present com
pany is an organization that took
ever the business OF the seven for.
merly separate companies and CON
soidated their working forces into a
unified operating agency of 100000
men.
eve have consolidated the routing
of freight so that it IA now on
national basis, giving shippers the
most direct railroad routes avail1hle
for handling Of their business. The
centralized management has made
possible the introduction Of standard
lied and improved meth DDS of ex-
press operation throughout the coun-
try We believe that shippers sp-
preciste the advantages Of ceutraiiza-
tica OF the express business.
The situation with the express
business is different from that of
the railroads. in that the Govern
msnt has simply guaranteed the pre-
sent company against an operating
deficit for the next six months, in
stead of guaranteeing the profits for
q period of three years, as has been
done with the case of railroads, But
no service can survive il it IL oper-
atcd at deficit, and so we feel it is
necessary for US to have an increase
in express rates. IN order TO make
the express service a paying business.
and to bring II no to its oIdtime
standards Of efficiency.
