PRINT PAPER WILL GO UP AGAIN; NEWS FROM ITS MAKERS
"WASHINGTON, May 6. Further advances in print paper prices are to be made by the International Paper Company July 1. said a telegram from Chester W. Lyman, vice-president ot the company, ..which was presented Wednesday to the senate committee investigating the paper shortage. The message, addressed to Joseph Pulitzer, publisher of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, follows: "Alarming rise in prices for pulp vood. other raw materials and mill supplies, together with inevitable increases in transportation charges, uriii nACfsit9ta a. hleher selling price
for last two quarters. Impossible to
foretell extent of Increase on account
of uncertainty of conditions. Increase
in cost likely to continue to turning point reached in general industrial, social and financial conditions. Rigid Economy Urged "Only remedy for present trouble Is rigid economy by publishers in their use of newsprint. It would be the heighth of folly for government to attempt to regulate or lower spot market, onerous as it may appear, as it would result in diversion of many specially built mills now making news- ' print to their normal product. This Addition to present newsprint supply, stimulated by the high prices of the spot market, is estimated at about 150,000 tons a year. "High spot market prices largely warranted by scarcity of raw material and corresponding high prices. In most cases believe the profits are ot inordinate. Small publishers must be helped out by larger consumers protected by contracts.".

News of Raflroad and Industrial Workers
Conditions at the Pennsylvania easti yards indicate that the strike of rail.
switchmen has almost ceased to exist and that it is only a matter of days until the volume of freight is again normal. Evidence of this can be gained from the fact that where three weeks ago
long strings of box and tank cars were on the sidings today only a normal number are there. Lifting of embargoes to Chicago and means of shipping cars through to eastern markets are responsible. Also, three weeks ago train crews were getting in but half their usual quota of time. Thursday finds the crew dispatcher working overtime to line up crews for outgoing trains. The car repair department also is a barometer of conditions. When thousands of cars were idle because of the strike, the Richmond yard, like others, received considerably less than a normal number of broken cars.
Consequently the repair department was able to gain on the cars on the "rip -track. 'This condition has ceased, however. Even with an increased force and a greater production, the incoming cars have gained what prestige they lost during the strike and are filling the "rip-track." Announcement that D. A. Rady has been appointed enginehouse foreman at the east yards was made by Pennsy officials Thursday. He succeeds E. J. Valentine, who has been named labor foreman on the first trick.
Several minor changes have been made in the master mechanic's office
recently. Among these is the transfer of Charles H. Brown, clerk, to the
store department. J. L. Bond, divi
sion storekeeper, is at Reid hospital recovering from a recent operation. Several freight cars of the Hagen-
beck-Wallace circus were on the "rip-
track Wednesday for minor repairs. Also, cars damaged . in recent small
wrecks on the Richmond division.
Betty Taylor, Daughter Of Former Local Folks, Dead Burns received by scalding caused the death of Betty Jane Taylor, infant daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Guy Taylor, at their home in Wyoming, Oklahoma, according to word received by Mrs. Edward C. Pettibone, of this city, grandmother of the baby. Mr. and Mrs. Guy Taylor were formerly of this city. Mr. Taylor was employed by the gas company. Mrs. Taylor was Miss Maude Pettibone. The couple left this city about five years ago, going to Dayton, Ohio, but later moved to their present residence.
Fruit Trees Are Blooming; Farmers Out in Fields A .summary of weather and crop conditions in Indiana for the week fnding Tuesday, by J. H. Armington, of the Indianapolis weather bureau, follows: Cool weather continued throughout the week with frequent showers and with some frosts in the northern half of the fetate. As a. result, progress of all vegetation and of farm work was further retarded. However, sunshine was about normal. Winter wheat made some improvement and reports as to stooling are favorable in fields -where there is a fairly good stand. Ttye, clover, meadows and pastures also improved, but the growth was slow. Wheat and oats on low bottom lands have undoubtedly been injured considerably by flooding, although the amount of damage Is as yet uncertairf. Melons and tomatoes in the beds in some of the principal producing if ections are reported as not doing well on account of the cold. Early tree fruits, such as plums, apiricots and some cherries, are beginning to bloom in the northern counties, and peaches, apples, and early fctra'wbejTies are blossoming in the central and southern sections. The bloom is very heavy generally, and there has been sufficient sunshine between showers to afford very favorable conditions for pollination.

RELATES HOW HE GAINED 10 POUNDS IN TWOWEEKS Kokomo Man Had Suffered From Stomach Trouble so
That Nothing Agreed With Him Appetite Failed and Couldn't Sleep. KIDNEYS WERE WEAK
1117 Main St.
Phone 1041
Declares After Taking Dreco Two Weeks, His Appetite Returned, Stomach Improved, Liver Got Active and Pains Left His Body. "The change in me is remarkable since I've been taking Dreco. I feel like a different person and my friends remark on how much better I'm looking" writes Mr. Louis Doyle, of 113S E. Sycamore St., Kokomo, Ind. Mr. Doyle is well known at the Pittsburgh Plate Glass Co., where ho 'is employed. "My stomach was in such shape that my food did not digest but turned to gas and bloated me up. Seemed I got no strength trom what I ate and I began to get thin and lost weight.
"My kidneys also got out of order 1
and I d have continual pains in my back, which hurt me to bend or stoop ?bout. I also had a tight feeling in my chest. The first bottle of Dreco helped me so I got the second one and after I had been taking this medicine two weeks. I had actually gained ten pounds. My food was digesting, with no gas forming, but seemed to give me strength. The pains over my kidneys passed away also the r)ains in my chest. Dreco certainly deserves all the praise being given it," When a person is sick, they certainly have to take medicine to get well, and Dreco is proving every day that it aids a disordered stomach; relieves gastritis, strengthens the kidneys; cleans off the liver; overcomes constipation and takes the pains out of rheumatic joints. All good druggists now sell Dreco and it is highly recommended In Richmond by Clem Thistlethwaite's Seven Drug Stores. Advertisement.
