NEWSPRINT SHORTAGE
EXPORT FROM CANADA NOT PROHiniTED. Ottawa, January 3. An official denial is [riven to' the report that the Government contemplated entirely prohibiting the export of newsprint paper. The Canadian newspapers use 20 per cent, of the output, and the remaining 80 per cent, must be exported or tho industry will close down. Tile Government's only object' in interfering if. to see that the Canadian nnpers get fair supplies a's a first call. It will not interfere with the balance. There is reason to believe that the Pacific Const mills will continue sunnlving Australasia this /ear on substantially the same basi« as last year: but publishers everywhere realise that prices are rising with the acute scarcity, and that all stocks are wiped out. Even the richest newspaper* have to be content with hand-to-mouth' supplies. Cortninly there is no hope of Australasia pelting more pnner than it has been receiving from Canada.—Renter.
