All Smoothed, out
Definite steps toward the re
organization of the Mutual Sav
ings Ic. Loan association were
made yesterday at a meeting of
the former board of directors and
J. R. Callahan, state supervisor
of savings and loan associations
This was the first time a Joint
meeting could be arranged since
the severance of the Mutual from
the Prudential Bancorporation,
which had contracted to put up
funds for the reserve fund stock
of the Mutual. Stress of work on
the auditors of the corporation de-
nartment prevented earlier ad
instment of accounts. This was
accomplished early this week
In setting up the new financial
tatement of the association the
former board of directors volun
tarily contributed funds to make
good any deficiency in the capital
structure of the association; and
this contribution was certified to
t- th annervisor. The effect is
that the Mutual may now go for
ward as an Independent savings
and loan association without any
Imnnlrment of capital

The plant of the Salem Linen
Mills is one of the bright spots In
Salem's Industrial and business
life. Not only are all the 16 new
looms now in operation, but they
have for some days been on a
double schedule, with two eight
hour shifts operating from 7 ln
the morning until 12 at night:
and the whole of the weaving de
partment of the mill is on
smoothly working basis as though
It were an old Ftory instead of a
new one, with all the apparatus
supplying thp. looms going along
ln fine shai o. with no hitches in
any of this part of the factory.
And r -1 withstanding the In
creased rnd increasing output of
this department, there is no
chance for accumulating any sur
plus stork. It is going to custom
ers as fast as it can be given the
finishing touches and be proper
ly parked, labeled and shipped.
F. J. Gilbrafth, manager of the
mill, arrived home last Monday
cisht from a trip of about three
weeks to California points. He
visited the trade in San Francisco,
Oakland, Los Angeles and San
Diego, and secured favorable new
connections in each one of those
cities, and there are increasing
orders from Portland, Seattle and
other northwest cities.
While nothing spectacular is
being planned, it is not too much
to say that within six months
there is no doubt that more new
looms will be added to the equip
ment, probably some of them hav
ing a wider range of output. Most
of the product of the looms now
going to the markets Is towels,
lunch cloths, and the like and
such is the quality and finish, and
the attractive packages, that re
orders from pleased customers are
the invariable rule.
Mr. Gilbralth has inquiries
from prospective new customers
for yarns so extensive that If
they could be filled the spinning
machinery would have to be much
more than doubled. It Is not to be
expected, however, that such an
ambitious undertaking will be a
part of the program of expansion
In the Immediate future. Many
things must be considered before
that phase is reached, including a
large additional supply of fiber;
far beyond what is in immediate
sight. In fact, the Increases al
ready evident will make such de
mands upon this raw supply as
are not certain to be met, without
buying supplies from other coun
tries. As was said some weeks
ago, the two local mills, the Miles
plant and the newly organized Sa
lem plant, will soon be on a

WASHINGTON, Dec. 11 (AP)
An outburst of protest on Cap
itol hill today all but closed tha
door upon President Hoover's
proposal for revision of war debts.
From house and senate and
from leaders of both parties came
firm declarations against further
debt relief for Europe under ex
isting conditions.
Meanwhile, with delay con
fronting ratification of the one
year moratorium, already in ef
fect, the administration prepared
a message to the foreign govern
ments respecting their debt pay
ments due to this country next
Tuesday.
However, failure attended an
attempt to bind house democratic
and republican leaders to support
this statement, in which it is un
derstood Secretary Stimson would
assure the foreign powers that the
payments could be abandoned
with certainty of congressional
ratification of the moratorium.
Failure is Deemed
Only Temporary
Failure to bind the house lead
ers was not regarded as any re
jection of the moratorium on
their part. But It is certain the
one year debt holiday faces new
trouble as a result of the latest
debt move by the administration.
As the tide of opposition grew
in volume Under Secretary Mills
hastened to back up with facts
and figures the statement made
by the president that some Euro
pean nations would not be in po
sition after expiration of the mor
atorium to pay their debt obliga
tions. Mills arranged a conference
for tomorrow.
The administration leader of
the senate. Watson, of Indiana,
led the attack upon debt revision
with the declaration that "it is
unthinkable that the American
people should shoulder Eruope
debts in order to enable those na
tions to build navies and equip
armies." He said Europe must
first cut armaments.
