W Delegates to the Interna tional Newspaper Circulation Managers' convention today weighed the words of Cali fornia's attorney general. Earl Warren, that no other "indus try or profession is at present exercising more self discip line or making greater sacri fices for th common good." Warren spoke at the an nual banquet, high point of the meeting, last night.

Ceilings Fixed for Red Cedar Shingles Effective June 29 Washington, June 18 The Office of Price administra tion has fixed the specific cell ing prices on red cedar shingles, which represent about 85 per cent of all wood shingles In this country. The schedule Is effective June 29 and applies to mill shipment. Except for lower grade shingles it pegs prices at approximately the levels which prevailed under the general maximum price ceiling. No. 1 gradti shingle maxi mums are the same as the aver age March ceiling prices while the ceiling for the two other grades is somewhat lower. Canadian imports also are sub ject to the price ceilings. At the same time, OPA amended its Douglas fir price ceilings and extended its provi sions to cover west coast hem lock and all species of true fir, which previously were subject to the general maximum regu lation fixing prices at highest March levels. Under the extension, the ceil ings are substantially below cur rent levels. For every ten 30-foot cruisers that aren't being built this year our navy can have another mos quito boat.
