The price | itxed by the Federal Trade' Commission has not met with the approval of the ; mills which had hoped for abnormal profits to tide them over financial mis : takes of the past. They are raising objections and attempting In every possible way to nullify the efforts of the Federal Trade Commission. Against a few favorable factors in the situa tion there Is an increasing' demand for news on account of the prospect of the United States going to war which has a growing tendency to boost the clr | culatlon in spite of every device sought: ! to maintain it at a minimum. ■ The situation for the future resolves I itself into a serious one for publish | ers unless they are willing to put Into effect at once very drastic economies. | There is a shortage of 400,000 tons of paper at present high figures. This I shortage must be met by not only in | creasing the price to two cents by all newspapers, but also by cutting dras tically the paper as supplied to the publisher, livery publisher must seek to i'ut twenty or twenty-five per cent, of his present consumption and must even go further than past economies. The bulletin concludes with the state ment that prospects for the future are far from bright; in fact are really seri ous. One of the publishing authorities says: "I am of the opinion that six months hence the present price for I print paper will seem low in compari -1 son to the price that will prevail at i that time. The newspapers that are wastefully and incompetently managed | will undoubtedly have to close up I shop, and even the best managed penny I papers will operate at a tremendous loss."

Postal Savings System and Money Order Department Work Is Growing Unprecedented strides in the postal savings system of the Steelton post office during this year are due to the influx of Southern negroes brought here to work in the local plant of the Bethlehem Steel Company, according to Postmaster M.
