The ownership of the 1600,000 common stock rests large with F. w. Leadbetter, the president, al
president of the California-Oregon Paper Mills with mill in Los Angeles, and for 25 years a large stockholder
and director of the Camas, now the Crown-Willamette Paper company. And the C. K. Snaulding Logging

dust for fuel and the necessary wood for the 50 tons of sulphite daily made in the sulphite mill. Mr. C,
Spaulding, the president of the logging company, being vice-president of the paper mill, and the fact that
Mr. Spaulding and Mr. Leadbetter each own one-half of the Spaulding Logging company, which in turn owrs
nearly one billion feet of timber with its own logging roads, assures the new paper mill of its raw maltmli
without the great expenditure for timber usually necessary to supply a great paper mill enterprise.
These two interests combined with the heavy holdings of the local Salem stockholders, and Mr. E
Collins and the Ladd estate of Portland, comprise the ownership of these mills and makes ol this plant
