A flurrv has been caused in the Paris newspaper world by an order issued by Ocnorai Dabail, Military Governor of tho city, prohibiting the transmis3io|i abroad of newspapers containing advertisements. This order, of which tho primary objectis to prevent the enemy from receiving 6e:,et information disguised as small classified advertisements, affects all display advertisements, even tho announcements of 'argo department stores and other business enterprises whose patriotism is unimpeachable. It applies to nowspapors sent to England and other Allied countries, as well as Switzerland and neutral States, where the Germans have a. special organisation for examining French newspapers. Tho "Journal" and soma oilier big Paris dailies are preparing .special foreign editions, in which all advertisements will be replaced by reading matter approved by tho censor. Other publication?, it now appears, will be liable to be slopped unless their advertisement aro all obliterated.
