ROTOGRAVURE* SECTION USES
PINE NEWSPRINT
Atlanta, Ga.—Pulp from Georgia
pir.es, transformed into newsprint
paper in 1933 in a demonstration
which attracted world-wide interest,
has passed the most exacting test of
all and has proved its fitness for ro
togravure printing.
Dr. Charles H. Herty, the distin
guished Georgia chemist whose years
of research converted useless pine
into prper, is responsible for the lat
est success, achieved only three days
ggo in Atlanta.
He used The Atlanta Journal’s
Sunday rotogravure section for the
test. A roll of paper manufactured
at the t experimental paper mill in
Savannah was brought here, and sev
eral hundred copies of the roto
gravure section were printed upon
it with results termed highly satis
factory.
Rotogravure presents the newspa
per in full dress, so to speak. Ordi
nary newsprint, the newspaper’s ev
eryday -attire, will not do for roto
gravure purposes. A super-paper is
needed —one with sheen and gloss
and finish. Dr. Herty’s experiment
proved to his satisfaction that such
a paper can be manufactured from
the Georgia pine just as well as re
gular newsprint.

PAGE FIVE
NO REPEAL FOR THIS EDITOR
We have seen the day of local op
tion and open bar rooms; We have
seen the time when women dare not
go to town without an escort; We
have seen dozens of drunk men on
the streets; have heard their rabble;
have seen their carousing and fight
ing; have seen the officers of the
law loose their lives in trying to
protect the public against drunken
rowdyism and we do not want to see
it again.
We realize that boot-legging is
bad enough, but nothing to compare
with the open saloon, which is what
the 'organized liquor interests are
working for.
According to the published statis
tics, every state in the union that
has repealed the prohibition meas
ure, shows that' drunkenness and
crime have increased within a few
months from fifty to one hundred
percent. Who dares to say that it
would not increase here?
The time was when men worked
and rode horses, which soon learned
to carry theia drunken owners home,
but these automobiles would carry a
drunken driver into ’ eternity sooner
than Old Dobbin could carry him
home, and likely carry innocent oth
ers with him. Give us sobriety and
better enforcement of the law.—
Clayton Tribune.
