Making Poppies w/ JK A hospitalized veteran engaged in making the poppies which will i go on sale here next Saturday by the women of the Legion AuxilI iary. Trunk Catches Fire From Rays Os Sun Jerry Rumple, who operates the | used furniture store on South Secj ond street, has a story that Is hard to believe, but he has witnesses to prove It. Mr. Rumple came down to his store early Monday morning and before he got to the front door, a passerby told him to hurry that his store was on fife. He discovered a trunk in the window In flames and on investigation found that the fire was started from the reflection of the sun Into a mirror which was directly behind the trunk. The wooden border of the old fashioned trunk had caught fire from the reflection — and he has a dozen neighbors to prove his story. 0 Trade In a Good Town — Decatur

Newsprint Shortage Eased During Year j New Equipmen To Bolster Production Washington. May 25 — <VP) — The newsprint shortage will be "considerably eased" this year by the use In U. 8. mills of new equipment with a total annual capacity of more than 100.000 tons, a commerce department expert said today. W L. Neubrecht, head of the department’s pulp and paper unit, reported that the total U. 3. supply of newsprint In the first three months this year was 12 percent greater than In the first quarter of 1947. Consumption was 11 percent higher. First quarter U. 3. newsprint production dropped five percent below the first quarter of last year, Neubrecht said, hut this was offset by increased purchases from foreign mills. The total supply in the first quarter was 1,197,000 tons, and consumption 1.227.000 tons. Because some newsprint machines were switched over to producing other kinds of paper, the U. S. production was only 190.000 tons in the first quarter. That was 10,000 tons below the corresponding period last year. But new equipment will more than fill the gap. Neubrecht said. "It is probable that newsprint output during the remainder of this year will go up as the result of new facilities." be said. "It will not take additional production to overcome the shortage and the situation will probably be eased considerably." Industry sources expect production in this country to reach between 860,000 and 860,000 tons this year, compared with 816.000 last

year Although the new machines are capable of a yearly output of 100,000 tons, they won’t be in production long enough to swell supplies by that amount this year. Total newsprint consumption last year was 4,768,000 tons, of which dally newspapers used 3,565,000. Industry experts hope for greater shipments of Finnish and Scandinavian newsprint, much of which Is sold on a spot basis rather than under long term contracts. Neubrecht said that a new machine with a 25.000 ton annual output Is expected to lie operating at Ore gon City. Ore., by June 1. Another at Longview, Wash., with the same capacity is expected to be in operation later. The Oregon City machine is a part of a plant purchased by a group of west coast publishers. The Ixmgview machine is being installed in a paperboard mill, and is also publisher • financed. The plant Itself, however, will continue under the old management. In addition, a mill with 50.000 ton capacity equipment at Lufkin. Tex., is expected to be in operation in July. Further new supplies are expected from mills at Kansas City. Mo., Potsdam. N. Y., and Gary, Ind. These will use a new method of reprocessing scrap paper and extracting the ink. o_ - , Trade In a Good Town — Decatur

and Attracts New Industries to Erie Communities

TO keep raw materials coming in ~ .to keep finished prod* ucts flowing out to consumers, manufacturers must have adequate railroad transportation. For more than a century, the Erie has provided its local industries with safe, dependable freight service that is constantly being improved by new, progressive methods. This is one important reason so many new industries have located in the Erie Area. • Locating more new planes in the
