Paper Prices Are
 Being Adjusted

The paper makers are on a strike. The manufactures were able to make so much profit last year that they have found it necessary to cut the wages of their employees 30 per cent and increase working hours to 30.
 There was few weeks ago a real danger that paper might reach national price. owing to the business depression, and consequent slack demand. The strike will help to prevent what might have been a serious loss of profit to the manufacturers.
 There is nothing complex about this paper situation, that is being brought to the attention of the reader by the harassed news papers. You can see the reason for it, in ten minutes Observa- tion of the shoppers, in any town or city. There goes woman with a market basket. She has seven packages.

 Every hour of the day in this town sees enough paper foOlishly wasted in this way to print this newspapers semi. weekly edition.
 The paper is carried home, torn from the package. and thrown away. 1t has cost the shopper from 10 to 200 per cent to buy her food in it's expensive wrapper. She has helped the few big packers and manufac- turers to control food prices, too.
 The consumption of paper in and needless wasteful wrappers IS three times that of the con- sumption by newspapers in this country.
 The paper situation is close to every line of business.
 A destruction of this manipula. ton of the paper market and the distribution of food would mean more to the consumer than 75 Der cent reduction in freight rates just by way of mak- ing ynn realize that you are con cerned in the paper situation!
