They suggest that he personally could step into the current news print shortage and take 8 strong stand on an issue which seriously threatens one of the basic free doms of the country - freedom of the press.
 Actually, a good many bureau- crats have been nibbling at the newSprint problem, but no one has stepped in with any forth rightness to cut red tape and solve the problem. It now looks as if only the White House could do this.
 Not generally realized is the fact that newsprint shortage is due not so much to decreased woodpulp in the Canadian forests, but to much greater use of card- board and packing material in sending war supplies abroad This is 8 terrific drain and, though U. s. publishers have patriotically cut their newsprint, they will have to cut to the bone unless energetic moves are made by the govern ment.
 The plan put forward by news paper executives friendly to the White House includes:
 l. Greater use ot war prison CTS in the Canadian and Maine forests.
 2. More equitable distribution of newsprint among publishers. At present, the papers with the big Sunday editions have scarcely suffered at all, being able to ab- sorb their paper cuts out of their Sunday fat. On the other hand, medium-sized papers may have to take terrific punishment.
 3. Stricter supervision of cuts by throW-aways, dodgers, comic magazines ana neWSprint users who have not kept such accur- ate records of their past corlsump- tion. The newspaper industry has suffered by its past efficiency, having kept very accurate records.
 4. More emphasis on the paper salvage campaign. At piesent, only 35 per cent of the nations waste paper is being collected and Salvaged. The waste paper re- claiming machinery is running at only 51 per cent of capacity. Ap- proximately 6,000,000 tons of waste paper are normally collected and sold for paper board but now only two million.
 The newspapers stepped in and did great job of collecting scrap iron when the nation needed 1t, but now, when the newspapers need newsprint, they themselves are somewhat handicapped in blowing their horn.
 What the White House will do remains to be seen.
 ANTI SUBSIDY FIGHT
 It's a sure bet that the anti subsidy bill fathered by Alabama's paternal Henry Steagall will pass the House of Representatives by a tWo-thirdS vote. It will also pass the Senate. This would mean the abolition of subsidies on almost all products except those grown around Congressman Stea- gals district - namely peanuts and cotton-Seed. It woulG also mean the end of the Presidents most cherished plan to check in' flation.
 However-it is also considered a good bet that Congress would not pass the bill over the Presidents veto. The two-thlrds or original passage would waver when it came to overriding 8 veto.

THE SICK SCHOOL CHILD

In the public schools today, in private schools, too, there are two opposing principles or schools of thought. The benighted old fash toned principle is that the child should keep coming to school as long as it is physically possible, and not remain out of school on account of a mere cold" Too many school physicians, superintendents or prin- cipals, teachers, nurses hold this view-they are inspired mainly by the desire to maintain a good at tendance record, and, unfortunately for public welfare, in many com- munities school moneys are appor- toned according to the attendance record, regardless of the effect of this vicious plan on the health of pupils. The enlightened modern principle Is that the child must be excluded from school if the child has any sign or symptom of an alleged cold" In more and more schools this modern principle is gaining ascendancy in spite of the indif- ference or actual resistance of the local medical and health authorities, for through one agency and another the public is slowly but surely be- coming conscious of the fact that the cause of three-fourths of all the illness attended by physicians is respiratory infection, and this in- creasing popular intelligence is a matter which 1t behooves the med ical profession to recognize, if the profession is to keep up with progress.
 Here is the guiding rule for every good parent: If your child has any sign or symptom which purports to be "cold," sore throat, running or stuffed up nose, oughing or sneedng and redness of eyes. fever ishness, hoarseness, do not allow the child to go to school until the symptoms disappear or you can have medical advice. Do not be dis suaded from applying this rule by any snap judgment of teacher, principal or nurse who may be primarily concerned about main taining 8 good attendance record and getting good share of the tax money for the schools of the dis trict. &

address last night. "As soon as the

in scope and intensity it will take
half of our West Coast gas"
While at present more than 8
out of every 10 gallons produced east
OF the Rocky Mountains go to the

diversion may be increased to gall

Mr.. Bowles disclosed that the theft
and counterfeiting of gasoline ration
coupons is developing into what he

up to the individual driver himself
to put an end to it, He said that in
