(AP) Both Senator Smoot of Utah and former Senator Lenroot of Wiscon sin denied flatly today that they it. any time had suggested to Al bert B. Fall, former interior sec retary, that he write the McLean $100,000 loan letter to the senate Teapot Dome committee. These two senators, Lenroot as chairman and Smoot as a member of the Teapot Dome committee, called on Fall at his hotel here late in 1923, at the time when the senate oil investigators were seek ing to ascertain the source of the funds the former cabinet officer used in extending his New Mexico ranch holdings. They explained then and reiterated today, that the purpose of their visit was to urge Fall to tell the whole story to the commitee. Replying to suggestions that he was the senator mentioned by Fall as having advised him to write the committee. Senator Smoot said chat this was "absojutely untrue." EL PASO. Texas, April 2. The office of W. B. Bull, commission er who took the testimony of Al beit H. Fall to be used at the trial of Harry F. Sinclair, charged with conspiracy to defraud the govern ment, was broken into and thor oughly searched Saturday night. Bull, fearing such a happening, had carried his stenographic notes on his person, and none of the Fall testimony was secured by those who searched his office. Every drawer in his desk was ransacked as was the remainder of the office, he told counsel the next day. STORM TOSSES SHIPS ON THREATENING SEAS (Continued from page 1) Cooper doubted ttiat they would be able to enter Yaquina Bay and expected them to continue on to the Columbia. He nointed out however, that the fuel supply was very low. The tiny boat was sighted off Heceta Head at 11 a. m. apparent ly drifting. This was taken to in dicate that the fuel had been ex hausted. It was thought possible the men would utilize their sails if decided to run for the Columbia. The life savers in the boat were without protection from the rag ing slorm. save for a spray guard in the bow. The boat is of the un sinkable type and equipped with l set of bailers and was expected !o weather the Ftorm until picked ip by a ship at sea, or until it reached the harbor.

BIG FACTORY GROWING WITH WIDE MARKETS (CatlDBd from PI D erts. this concern Is offering com mon and preferred stock to the people of Salem, an attractive and convincing announcement of which the reader will find in a page ad vertisement in The Statesman of this Issue. (At the noon luncheon meeting of the Salem Chamber of Com merce yesterday, one of the inter esting speakers was C. F. Beyerl, president of this company. He jpoke as follows:) Out of Necessity The Pauer Converting company bras originated by necessity which developed in the selling of paper made by the Oregon Pulp and Pa oer comotDT. It was found that in .elling greaseproof and glasslne papers it was necessary to furaisn orinted and other manufactured paper products in conjunction with their own paper. Inasmuch as there were no suitable printing presses in Salem, it was first considered doing this work In Portland, but finally the converting company was formed taking over the Chaus- je-Prudhomme. company of Port-' land, who were manufacturing a certain class of paper specialties. The activities of the converting company are fully explained in the name itself, namely converting all kinds of paper, and allied products into Drinted or other paper articles for general use. In particular we are finishing paper products for the following industries: Meat packers. Fruit packers, which includes fresh, dried and candied fruits. Candy manufacturers. Bakeries. . Creameries. Biscuit manufacturers. Furthermore we are manufac turing stationery and school sup plies, street car transfers for street railways and fancy papers for box manufacturers, druggists and man ufacturers of chemicals. Seventy-five per cent of the ma terial which we are using for this purpose consists of Glassine and greaseproof, bond and writing pa pers manufactured by the local mill. Some other naDcrs we are buying from the mills located in 4 the northwest, and some of our material, owing to the nature of the article, we are buying from eastern mills. Our second largest product Is aluminum foil, which is "aluminum rolled out very thin and which we emboss in conjunction with wax paper and print for the U9e of the candy manufacturers for wrapping, candy bars, and for ice cream man - uiacturers who are making the well known ice cream bar with chocolate coating, such as "Eskimo Pie" "Polar Cake." etc. And Cellophane, Too We are using to a considerable extent and making every possible effort to put on the market the so called cellophane, which is a pat ented product manufactured by the Dupont company of Buffalo and which, owirfg to its transparency and toughness of sheet, has lent it self to the use of wrapping dried fruit, bakery articles, and is also coming into use extensively in the meat packing industry. The mater ial Is produced out of wood and in some cases out of cottom cellulose in a similar process as rayon silk. We are operating eight presses, two of which are patented presses for the use of cellophane and foil. and are the only successful presses wnich so far have been able to print either cellophane or foil from a roll. We are operating one three color Kidder press which is the only press of this kind on the Pac ific coast. This press will not only print cellophane in more than one color, and print either cellophane or foil from a roll. We are oper ating one three color Kidder press which is the only press of this hind on the Pacific coast. This press will not only print three colors at a time, but it can dy bar wrappers and for printing i paper for meat packers. The manufacturing of bon bon cups and baking cups is taken care of by 10 modern machines which have a capacity of onemillion cups a day . Great Capacity We have repeatedly been told that our bag machines which pro duce candy and glassine bags at a capacity of 800,000 per day per machine, and which are equipped with ?two color printing attach ment, do very good work, and from necessity we operate these machines 16 hours a day. It seems that we are really doing better , 0 7&$ft"' ,rli:3aU,,W "' To the End That Love May Extend Its Finest Tribute Beyond Life 00a and East 14th and Bybee work than our competitors; at least we are getting the business. In the manufacturing of fancy cover stock and paper for fruit packers it requires a machine which embosses the paper In all kinds of fancy designs, and we be lieve we are operating one of the best that is built. We also are op erating the necessary finishing Smacninerv such as a plater, which per, cutters, rewinders, trimmers, punching machines, and, last but not least, we have installed one of the latest ruling machine making ruled papers. This machine will rule from a roll of paper, cut the paper into sheets, rule both sides and turn the sheets around and rule both ways in one operation at the rate of approximately 500 pounds per hour. A World Market ' The market for our product is not only the Pacific coast but com prises the entire United States, and we have been more than suc- cessful in placing our goods into the American possessions such as Porto Rico, Hawaiian Islands, A county read now passes Philippine Islands, and we further-) through the tract, but County more have invaded foreign coun-!

This of course depends a great deal on the sup port we are geJting from the local mill; the support we are getting from Salem, and I am Eure I am expressing the desire and wish of our stockholders and directors that this company be an organization owned and backed by Salem peo ple. AIRPORT BOND BILL APPROVED BY COUNCIL (Continued from pge 1) Expense to He Met Brazier Small, representing the Salem Chamber of Commerce and I the local American Legion post. appeared before the council and officially pledged both groups to underwrite all the expense in volved in putting the issue on the ballot. He intimated that in case Tender Lasting Protection The age-old longing to protect the loved form of one we cherished in life no longer is a futile thing. Modern science has translated its noble hope into beautifully wrought buildings of time - defying stone. Within their halls and corridors there are comfort for the living and tender, lasting protection for those who know eternal slumber. Mankind has yef to find anything so kindly as these two incom parably better ways Yault Entombment and Cremation. Families throughout the Pacific Northwest are pro viding their sleeping ones with permanent protection at thts beautiful place Complete arrangements can be made through your local funeral director. THE COST OF CREMATION IS ONLY $45 y soil the measure carries the council may pay back the money if it sees fit, but in case the $60,000 bond issue is not authorized there will be no possibility of reimbursement for either the American Legion or the chamber of commerce. . "We are doing this in order to facilitate establishment of an air port as much as possible," Small stated. "Even at best the airport very likely will not be established this summer, but if it is author ized at once this city will have de clared its intention to establish one and we will begin to take our piace on tne air transport map. lioanl Favorable Small stated afterward that earlier in the day he bad inter viewed Tom Kay, member of the state board of control, and Kay had expressed the belief that the board will be glad to recommend I sale of a large tract situated in a southerly direction from the state! penitentiary and across the high way from that institution. Thie tract will make possible a runway of some 4000 feet within the npit vear there will be several competing air lines doing business up and down the Pacific coeet. Bangs is in the city for the purpose of interesting local busi ness men in using air mail." WATSON COMES TO AID OF FARM RELIEF BILL (Continued from page 1) sition of the president and his cab inet. Chairman McNary of the agri culture committee yielded to Sen ator Watsou to fire the opening shot of the debate but the Oregon senator took the floor to lead the fight during the several hours oft discuffiion which the new measure provoked.
