Newsprint Price Ceilings
Enforced by New Ruling

BY the Associated Press.
Evasion of the newsprint price
ceiling by use of an improper desti-
nation for deliveries has been spe-
cifically prohibited by the Office of
Price Administration.
Effective November 16, the new
action prohibits newspaper and
magazine publishers from taking de-
livery of newsprint at destinations
other than those normally used, If
the use of such an unusual" desti-
nation would increase the price
above the publishers legal ceiling
cost.
Under the zone pricing system for
newsprint, prices are lower at GER
tain named ports than In the zone
surrounding the ports. An OPA
spokesman said some newsprint
sellers had been refusing to deliver
to, publishers unless delivery was
taken at some point in the zone
other than the port, even though
the publishers plant was In the
port city. In such cases the higher
ceiling price would prevail and the
publisher would also have to pay the

If you could see this place, you
would understand how it was at

that there isn't any chapter in the

fight and to use their heads when
they're fighting. That's all they're
taught.
They get up at am. and 60 to
bed around 10 o'clock. Most of the
time, they're working, studying and
training. When they get away from
here, they're ready for combat duty
unless they are selected to special
ize in certain field. In that case,
they may expect another 10 weeks of
concentrated training before they're
sent away to lead their platoons in
the face of enemy fire.
They've got to get these men in
shape in the shortest possible time.
Out on Guadalcanal, their buddies
sleep under a curtain of bursting
shells and they stow away their
chow with the acrid smell OF pow
der in their nostrils.
That's why there wasn't any cele-

GREAT EQUALIZER

Here's the story of a man
who had the last laugh - even
if he had to charge it up to
the current tire shortage.
A Wilmington Navy Re-
cruiter stopped at filling sta
ton near Chinquapin to ask
directions to an applicants
home. In front of the filling
station, quite easily to be avert
ed by passing motorists, was
a huge puddle of muddy water.
The recruiter started back to
his station wagon, and just as
he opened the door, a car load
of youngsters passed - hitting
the mud puddle with a smack
and spraying mud and water
all over the recruiter and his
freshly-washed station wagon.
Their laughter floated back
to torment the recruiter - but
not for long.
A hundred yards down the
road there was a sickenlng
"explosion." The left rear tire
had blown out-and the kids
didn't have spare.
