other questions as to whether he

Mr.. Wallace agreed to that inter-

the system was designed by Arthur

Record Is Set
By Paper Mills
Product Is Now Rolling Out
At the Highest Rate in
American History.

NEW YORK.-EXclusive of news
print, paper and paper products now
are rolling from American mills at
the highest rate in history, and the
gap between supply and demand in
most categories may be closed by
the end of the year. One of the
major shortages, according to in
dustry leaders, appeared to be in
paper for the book and magazine
trade.
Chief difficulty in this division vas
not to determine supply esti-
mated to be about 400, 900 tons
greater this year than last-but to
guess the future demand, since the
recent hike in OPA wood pulp cell
ing prices of about 10 per cent could
work two ways:
Production might be spurred by
attracting more pulpwood from
farm woodlots and adding profit in
centive at the mill level.
Cost May Go Higher.
But, at the same time, the cost
of paper might 60 to a point where
publishers would drop some of
their marginal publications and
print fewer books.
Total U. S. production of paper
and paperboard in August was esti-
mated at 1,715,710 tons by DR.. Louis
T. Stevenson, economist for Amer
lean Paper and Pulp association.
Daily average production was rum
ming about II per cent ahead of last
year.
The industry entered 1916 hoping
to produce at a rate of about 19 mil
lion tons domestically this year.
Present production is at a rate of
more than 20 million tons a year.
Estimates for 1916 have been re-
vised as follows: Domestic produc-
ton, 1880, 900 tons; imports, 3,100,-
600 tons; exports, 475,0 900 tons; CIV
ing American consumers 81 ,245 900
tons of paper and paper products.
The gap between supply and de-
mand has been steadily narrowed.
One industry source estimated that
at the end of June supply was rum
ming one million tons behind de-
mand, but the association believes
that the gap should be whitfield
down to reasonable dimensions by
the end of this year"
Future Trouble Spots.
There are, however, several fu-
ture trouble spots.
Swedish pulp, on which American
mills have depended in the past to
fill the gap between American pro-
duction and American needs, has
practically stopped coming in, and
the OPA price rise of 10 per cent
designed to meet the 10 per cent in
in the value of the Canadian
dollar-fell short of meeting a IA
per cent hike in the value of the
Swedish krona.
The Swedes shipped about zoo, 900
tons to the United States so far this
year, and Finland SO, 900 tons. If the
price incentive boosts total domestic
production by 6 per cent, loss of the
Swedish shipments would be Offset.
Little more is expected from
Sweden because, American mill
owners pointed out, the Swedes can
sell all their pulp in European and
South American markets at prices
above the American ceiling.
Consumers of paper noted with
satisfaction that several pulp mills
being built in Canada are about
'eady to start production.

medical authorities said last night
there is no noticeable increase in

tory infections and still others con-
tend the medical scientists have not
agreed on what is the cause of the

AS a means to avoid contami-

that it is a good plan to stay away
from people who are contaminat-
ed with either. ''Avoid personal
contact with the victim of colds or
influenza" is the advice they give:
DR.. Elliot who said that he did
not have record of the cases
now in existence, said he had
noticed nothing unusual regarding
cases of flu or colds during the
past 10 days.
