PAGE FOUR D(ul y Almka Emplre ks B E £ Bogert Nire Unless our daily newspapers are to resign them- ’ selves to a perpetual state of frozen circulation and rationed advertising they must do something to help themselves about their own newsprint situation. Tf it 1't be bought, then the logical thing to do is make yourselves or get someone else to make it. Where? In Alaska! No newspaper has the resources to spend 25 to 30 million dollars for a newsprint mill in Alaska. And it will be a difficult task for a group of papers to interest private capital in developing that area—al- Y | though we feel sure the idea could be sold on the basis of a guaranteed market There logical “taker” i government The Departmnt of Intericr has surveyed the whole situation and believes newsprint mills possible there.

There we have the potential interest of the mili- tary and the bureaucrats. The politicians on “the Hill” who are interested in doing something about newsprint ought to see the logical steps to be taksn If they don't see it, who else but the newspaper publishers should bring it to their attention—and what better time is there than now? If additional newsprint capacity is not put in the blueprint stage soon, American newspapers may find | themselves in a few years in a shortage that will make ‘the present one seem like a cornucopia EMPIRE rm\u\., « mw\\\ SUBSCRIPTION RATES Delivered by carrier in Juneau and Douglas for $1.50 per month six months.

However, the Argentine Govern- ment requested a postponement to May 21. Although the others ac- ceptad, the Brazilians apparently began to worry over what sort of fancy deal Peron was cooking up to offer the Uruguayans. So they have now sounded out Uruguay with a proposal that all the conferences be tri-partite—in other words, three nations in each meeting.
