Print Paper Situation Now Becoming Alarming.

Monticello Herald. The print paper situation in Indiana is extremely serious, with no relief in sight. Just what newspapers will do, if the present scarcity of printt paper continues,, is hard to predict. Not only is the quality of the paper affected but the-supply is almost exhausted. The Cincinnati Enquirer has notified its local dealer that, owing to the scarcity, of print paper, it will be unable to supply the reqular quota of papers to Monticello. This remarkable action of the Enquirer forecasts the situation, which is alarming. When newspapers attempt to renew their contracts for print paper they will find it difficult to do even at prices double that of a year ago.
