Statements appearing in this line should be ignored as far as referrals are concerned. This is true even when a statement such as "none" appears in the new matter linee. (But see Item II. F. 1. b.(2), above, concerning antedated notices). Similarly, the mere absence of a new matter statement should not be cause for referral. However, if the copy states it is a "reprint," a referral should be made.
