passed late yesterday by the Senate,
which gave "A boost 10 the Naval Air
Service by including an appropriation
of S18,900 900 for this feature. The
Senate restored two sections in the
bill eliminated by the House, one
providing s4,962, 500 for new planes

S,900, 900 is exclusive of the S4,10o,-
900 contract authorize ton item, it in
cludeS 2 like amount to provide funds
to carry out a similar authorization in
the last act
The two sections restored were
recommended to the House by it's ap-
preparations committee. They were
eliminated when members Of the naval
committee objected that the appro-
priations committee had no authority
to authorize this expenditure, and

tee announced that ii would consider
legislation embrac acing a comprehensive
building program.
No serious difficulty is expected in
reaching an agreement on this section
when the Senate and House conferees
meet
The Senate also inserted in the bill
an appropriation for continuing the
IakehurSt. n. j., naval air station IN
it's present status. Abandonment OF
this station was recommended by In"

a number of members of the naval
committee are in favor of maintain
ing il. and their opinion is expected
To have weight in the joint conference
on the bill.
Combined feet maneuvers III Mar

Sible if the House approves an IN
crease of s1,750,0O0 in the allotment
for fuel added To the bill by the Sen
ate. 1t was explained to the Senate
that the Navy Department hopes TO
bring the Pacific fleet to the Atlantic
coast once every three years to keep

CHICAGO, February 1I.-Principles
of scientific newspaper management
We're outlined before the Inland Daily
Press Association today by W. r
Ronald. publisher of the Evening Re
publican. Mitchell, and president of
the Associated Press Editorial AS
Sociation of South Dakota.
Scientific newspaper management
is possible only if predicated upon d
scientific cost finding system. an out
side record independent of and sup
Elementary TO the usual bookkeeping
records he said. such a system
if it performs what should be expected
OF il would be threefold in its accom-
plshments. First, it will correctly
departmentiZe costs in such way as
to give the manager a monthly re-
port of the real net revenues by de.
partments and by the unit of measure
ment in each department
Secondly. such system must re
port costs in such form as to pro
vide a basis for individual sales as
applied to local display advertising, ir
particular such a system must enable
the manager to assure the revenue
which in turn assures a predetermin
ed minimum profit.
Third. such "a system should re
suit in the successful and accurate
use of the budget system, both for ex-
pense and for revenue"
American newspapers would get
plenty of news print at prices at least
as reasonable as they pay now. even
should Canada place an embargo on
pulpwood, Maj. H. B. Burgoyne, St
GATHERINGS. Ontario. told the Inland
Daily Press Association yesterday.
Maj. Burgoyne said Canadians had
been impressed in seeing several acres
of Canadian virgin spruce and pop-ar
consumed in one edition of an Ameri-
can Sunday paper, and enough pulp
wood to furnish $500 tons Of news
print in one automobile edition Of a
Detroit daily.
