Grafton to plans to reduce news

Der l, last, and that it is very
likely the new cut will be made
effective in few weeks and possibly
not later than around January /.

Further information indicates
that active consideration is being
given plans to prescribe a basis of
newsprint consumption both in the
United States and Canada, and that
early action may be expected"
Meanwhile, it was learned that

have frozen production at about the
current rate of consumption. but
further cut is expected to require
methods OF limiting consumption.

submarine crews were becoming des-

The captains talk was made to his
men after the cruiser visited Pearl
Harbor, where the crew saw the
result Of the December 7 assault
on that naval stronghold.
Il would suggest that you forget
about those things of the past and
concentrate on those which now lie
before u.s." said the captain. His
name was not disclosed.
The effect of the Pearl Harbor
attack is going to be greatly bene-
ficial" in consolidating public opin-
ion and winning the cooperation of
South America, he told his crew.
II think we can safely feel that
temporary losses are not going to
affect us one iota." he asserted.
The desperation Of the submarine
crews is shown by their coming to
the surface during the daytime,
which action is against all prac-
tical procedure" the captain said.
