Chairman Donald M. Nelson of
the War Production board today
reported an impending "serious
shortage" of print paper which
will make newspapers thinner
in 1044.
In a letter to Rep. Lyle H.
Boren, D., Okla., chairman of
the House subcommittee investi
gating the newsprint situation.
Nelson warned that the decision
of the newspaper industry to
use up its reservea now meant
Inevitable curtailment in 1944.
He said the War Production
board had decided to approve
the industry's recommendation
for an additional cut of only five
per cent in newsprint quotas for
the Jast quarter of 1943 but that
"in choosing to use its cushion
now, "the industry cannot count
on borrowing from other essen
tial demands to reduce the fur
ther curtailments that are in
evitable through a large part of
1944."
Nelson said manpower short
ages were chiefly responsible for
the decline in newsprint produc
tion.. To remedy the situation,
he said, the use of war prisoners
and imported seasonal workers
is being considered; a campaign
is under way to encourage farm
ers and others to devote part of
their time to cutting wood; and
the war manpower commission's
aid is being sought to prevent
I further migration of woods labor.
LIFE IS DULL ON
PORTLAND RAFT
Portland, Ore., Sept. 21 (U.R)
.Seven war workers found life
on a navy raft a bit on the mon
otonous side today while hoping
that Oregon's buying of war
bonds would hurry up.
The modern mariners agreed
to stay on the raft until the state
meets its $104,000,0p0 quota in
the third war loan drive. Going
into the fourth day on the Wil
) lamette river, they were hardly
encouraged by the fact the quota
was barely at the halfway mark.
The most exciting thing so
far is a barge fire nearby.
After munching concentrated
rations, the men said they want
ed most a big thick steak, smoth
ered in onions.
