honor of being selected on the
task committee of five to draft a
formula for restrictive distribu-
ton of print paper in the nation.
The other four members of the
committee are publishers of large
national newspapers and although
the supply of neWsprint next
year will be considerably reduc-
ed, these men whose papers will
be seriously affected were un-
willing to restrict consumption of
paper by the smaller newspapers.
Much to my surprise and delight,
members of the general commit

same attitude. All of them ex-
pressed deep appreciation for the
country press, which numbers
about 10000 in the nation. For
this interest I am profoundly
