Ladles' Homo Journal, ' NO MORE FREE PAPERS. Till' Mail Tribune, along with every oilier newspaper, is in receipt of the following order from the war industries board, dated Washington, July u, 1918: To AH XcKftpa ior Publishers. :' On account of tho shortage of materials the question of the supply of paper Is becoming acute und tho use of paper must bo economized tosthe greatest possible extent. It Is necessary that all newspapers which publish a dally and weekly edition put tho following preliminary economies Into effect July 15, Jills. Discontinue the acceptance of the return of unsold copies. Discontinue the use of all sum pins or freo promotion copies. ' Discontinue giving copies to anybody except for office-working copies or where required by statute law In the case of official advertising. Discontinue giving free copies to advertisers, except not more thun ono copy each for chocking purposes. Discontinue the urhltrary forcing of copies on nnws dealers (i. e., compelling them to buy more copies thun they can legitimately sell In order to hold curtain territory). Discontinue the buying back of papers at cither wholesale or retail selling price from dealers or ugcuts, in ordor to Bocitre preferential representation. Discontinue the payment of salaries or commission to agents, dealers, or newsboys for the purpose of securing tho equivalent of return priv ileges, i Dlscontlnuo ull freo exchangos. ;' r THOMAS E. DON'NELLBY, Chief Pulp and I'uper Section, War Industries Board. The Mail Tribune cheerfuly'Vonipluis with the above, though the aetmil saving in news print will be slight. Most of the requirements are already the policy of the paper and all are good business moves for the publisher. More paper is needlessly wasted every Sunday in tire paresis sections of the metropolitan papers than all the economies of all the country and town newspapers in America can save in a year's time. These so-called "funny" and special feature slush sections are needless luxuries, do not convey news or important usef ul nilorina tion, are not even amusing to a person of average intelli gence, and not at all necessary to winning the war. The war bor.rd's attention is respectfully called to the economic, waste involved in city papers a criminal "waste both are needed by the nation, 1 ill service m return to society to justify -existence other than satisfying the -catch-penny cupidity of the publisher. Rizzo, the Dreadiiaught Chaser Italy has u mighty hunter, a young sailor who pursucB neither men, nor anlmuls, nor yet submarines, but dreadnaughts. Already ho has four in his bag and two of thorn certainly will novor furrow tho Adriatic sea again. Ho Is Commander Lulgl Rlz 7.0, knight of tho mllllury order of Savoy.

On tho night of Juno luth two Austrian battleships of tho Vlrlbls Unltls typo stole from the great Aus trian baso at Pola, surrounded by a wheeling fleet of ton destroyers.

For that ho received a silver medal and was transferred to tho regular sorvlce. Right afterward bo began thoso swift raids on tho enemycoast which have made him famous, and soon got another sliver medal. His third medal was won during the great Italian retreat after tho disaster at Caporetto. Tho Italian army had not yet reached tho I'lavo river. It was struggling, much disorganized, to get across the Tagllamento. Itlzzo ponetratod tho stream In an armed motorbont, shelled the enomy on tho banks, holpcd to chock the Austrian pursuit and captured a batch of pris oners.
