MERGER ORGANIZED
Crown-Columbia and Willam
ette Pulp & Paper Com
panies Will Unite.
PLANTS IN THREE STATES
Portland and San Francisco Capital
Involved in Deal Which Is to
luring Two Concerns Under
General Management.
Organization of . the Crown-Willamette
Paper Company with an authorised
capitalization ot $13,000,000 has Just
been completed by Portland and San
Francisco capitalists for the purpose of
purchasing the properties of the
Crown-Columbia Paper Company and
of the Willamette Pulp & Paper Com--.
pany, operating plants in Washington,
Oregon and California.
Although details of the organisation
have .not been entirely agreed upon, it
Is understood that most of the prin
cipal stockholders in the two existing
companies will be interested also. In
the new corporation, which will De
formed In the State of Maine.
It, is probable that the management
f the new corporation will be in the
hands of the managers of the present
companies.
Organization permed Here.
Plans for the new organization were
(effected in Portland a few days ago,
vhen the managers of both companies
visited the various plants of the two
companies in this vicinity. The pur
pose of the organization, it is under
stood, is to reduce operating expenses
In the paper mills by eliminating a
duplication of fixed charges, thus en
abling them to compete with British
Columbia and Norway and Sweden,
which countries have been active in the
markets of the Pacific Coast since
the removal of the tariff.
Through the new company additional
capital also will be available, .it is
said, for some extensive improvements
in the vicinity of Portland that have
bees contemplated by the two old com
panies for the last five years.
The Crown-Columbia Paper Company
operates a large mill at Camas, Wash.,
where it installed recently what was
regarded as the largest and best ma
chine in the world for the manufacture
of print paper. The capacity of this
mill is 17S tons per day. It operates
at Camas, also, a large plant for the
manufacture of paper bags, tissue pa
per and toilet paper. It has an addi
tional wrapping paper plant at Ore
gon City and pulp mills at Warren
dale, Or.
Plant In Sierras.
The same company operates a large
wrapping and tissue paper factory at
Floriston, Cal., a point in the heart
of the Sierras, 6000 feet above sea
level and convenient to the native
timber requisite to the manufacture
t of wood pulp, from - which paper is
made.
At both Camas and Floriston the
company specializes in the manufac
ture of a high-grade tissue paper for
wrapping citrus and deciduous fruits.
In connection with this industry ex
tensive printing plants are operated at
Camas, Wash.; Los Angeles, Cal., and
Sanford, Fla., where the tissue paper
wrappers are printed with the private
brands and the names of the various
Iruitpackers and shippers.
The principal plant of the Willam
ette Pulp & Paper Company is at Ore
fcon City, where it operates one of the
largest print or newspaper mills in
the country. This mill has a dally
capacity of 200 tons.
The daily capacity of the various
plants to be owned by the new com
pany will be in excess of 450 tons.
VETERAN DIES AT AGE OF 71
Henry s. Wendan Served Under Mc
Kinley and Hayes.

served in the regiment of which the
late President McKinley was Major and
the late President Hayes was Captain,

street. Mount Tabor, Wednesday at the
age of 71 years. He had been a resi
dent of Portland for seven years. In
1861 he enlisted in the Twenty-third

years, with an excellent record.

. IDAHO HAS TAX PROBLEM
18 Counties Delinquent to State To
tal of $ ICQ, 167. 50.
BOISE, Idaho. Oct. 1. (Special.)
Eighteen counties in Idaho are delin
quent in their state taxes to a, total
ot $129,167.50. and a number of the la
have failed for several years to pay
into the State Treasury their share
of state tax.
The fact that the State Tax Com
mission has been under fire since its
creation two years ago because it found
on a Supreme Court test it was not
vested with the power it believed it
had has made the tax question, with
the approach of the new Legislature,
loom up as an important one. The
Legislature probably will make an ef
fort to revise the tax laws so it will
be possible to force the delinquent
counties to pay their taxes. This may
mean the submitting of an amendment
to abolish the board of equalization
on the Tax Commission.

WOMEN CENSORS MIFFED
MRS. MILLIE TRUMBULL THREAT.
ENS TO RESIGN.
Mrs. Colwell, Chairman, Alao Talk f
Quitting- After Row Over Retention
of Mrs. A. C. Si twill.
More troubles are on among women
members of the board of motion picture
censors. As an outcome of a little word-
battle between Mrs. Millie Trumbull,
secretary of the board, and Mrs. E. B.
Colwell, chairman of the board, at a
meeting at the City Hall yesterday, Mrs.
Trumbull announced that she proposed
to resign. She announced that she
would see Mayor Albee before doing
so, however. Mrs. Colwell said she
thought she, herself, would have to re
sign from the board if Mrs. Trumbull
did not.
The fuss started about a month aero
when Mayor Albee announced that the
censorship board is an oflicial body, and
its members should be appointed by
the Mayor. He retained Mrs. A. C.
Newill on the board. Mrs. Trumbull
contended that the members originally
were appointed by the various women's
organizations, and-" that while Mrs.
Newill was the Woman's Club appointee
originally, she was not the choice of
that body now and should be removed.
Mrs. Trumbull insisted strongly that
Mrs. Newill be replaced by the new ap
pointee of the president of the Woman's
Club, whose name has not been announced.
At the prior meeting of the board the
question was settled over Mrs. Trum
bull's objections, and she was requested
to place "Mayor Albee's notice of the
appointment of Mrs. Newill and the
retention of the board as an official
body on the minutes. When the min
utes were presented yesterday Mrs.
Colwell declared that Mrs. Trumbull
had "read in" a lot of things that did
not take place at the meeting. This
led to the announcement of intentions
to resign.
Mayor Albee pleaded in vain for har
mony in the organization.
VARIETY IN SUNSET. FILMS
Human Interest, Comedy and Cur
rent Events on Programme.
The Sunset Theater's Droerramme for
the remainder of the week is one which
presents a charming variety of human
interest and fun.
The headline offering. "A Modern H.in
Van Winkle," is the story of a man
sentenced to the penitentiary for life
for killing' his rival.
After serving 35 years of his sen
tence the man is released and goes
back to his old home.
After wandering about in the lahv-
rinth of streets and alleys, he goes
oacK to tne prison that has become his
home.
The photography in this Play Is par
ticularly good, and the "Flvinir A's"
all-star cast, including' Vivian Rich,
.Harry von Meter and Jack Richardson,
does excellent work.
Roscoe Arbuckle, Keystone's funni
est funnyman, is going through his
antics in "Fatty Again," a slap-stick
comedy with a lot of "pep."
The Harvest of Regrets" is a one
reel melodrama, hackneyed in theme,
but prettily handled.
The Pathe Daily News eives an in
teresting potpourri of European and
American current events.
Matt Dennis, the popular baritone
soloist, sings some excellent song selections.
CENSORSHIP LAW HELD UP
Willingness of Theater Owners to
Co-operate Halts Action.
Because managers of motion picture
theaters, have shown a willingness to
co-operate with the city and the offi
cial censor board in eliminating un
desirable films. Mayor Albee has with
held introduction before the City Coun
cil of the proposed ordinance to pro
hibit the display of uncensored pic
tures. Mayor Albee says the ordinance was
the outcome of attempts on the part
of some of the picture theater mana
gers to use undesirable films in spite
of the demands of members of the
board of censors that these films or
parts of them be eliminated.
HAVE DARK HAIR
A! LOOK YOUNG
Nobody Can Tell When You
Darken Gray, Faded Hair
With Sage Tea.
Grandmother kept her hair beauti
fully darkened, glossy and abundant
with a brew, of Sage Tea and Sulphur.
Whenever her hair fell out or took
on that dull, faded or streaked ap
pearance, this simple mixture was ap
plied with wonderful effect. By asking
at any drugstore for "Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound," you will get
a large bottle of this old-time recipe,
ready to use, for about 50 cents. This
simple mixture can be depended upon
to restore natural color and beauty to
the hair and is splendid for dandruff,
dry, itchy scalp and falling hair.
A . well-known downtown druggist
says everybody uses .Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur, because it darkens so nat
urally and evenly that nobody can tell
tt has been applied it's so easy to
use, too. You simply dampen a comb
or soft brush and draw it through
your hair, taking one strand at a
time. By morning the gray hair disap
pears; after another application or
two, it is restored to its natural color
and looks glossy, soft and abundant.
