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

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.

many Sicilians ho comes of a family
ot sailors and so, when only a lad,
fell naturally into tho sea service,
joining (be merchant marine. He
fared far, at one time operating a
Itumunlau steamer on tho Danube

ventures which developed that sud

show his characteristic dash, and in

attract wide notice was his capture

violent fire from tho foe's guns.

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
