Owing to a severe shortage of newsprint all Israeli daily newspapers have been reduced, beginning today, to one sheet on weekdays. The weekend editions, published on Fridays, will be limited to four pages. The next shipment of paper from abroad is not expected in less than four weeks.

(In Washington theis week-end, the International Materials Conference granted Israel an emergency allotment of 400 tons of newsprint. This is the first time Israel has received such an allocation.)
