PLAN TO HAVE
PLANT READY
NEXT SEASON
(Continued from Page One's
the new board of directors fm
mediately following their election
will be to enter Into contracts with
farmers for the next year'a crop o
flax. It la the plan, as now ex
pressed, to give preference to far
mers who are stockholders In the
mill.
AUo contracts will be given
far afl possible to farmers who
havo land beat adapted to the
growing of high-claw flax.
Another early movo o the board
of directors will be toward the se
lection of the elte for the new mill,
This is a matter causing numerous
inqulrlei. It can be safely eald
at this time, that no slto will be
elected, until Mr. Berry, who will
' be manager of the now mill arrives
from Canada and inikea a thor
ough examination of all of the
alt! offered for the mill. There
1h little nucstlon that tho HOlocli
of tho slto will rest largoly In hl
Judgment. While tho purchaso of
thn filtA will llo entirely in the
hands of the board of directors,
those doenlv Interested In the mill
declaro that the mill slto will be
selected purely and solely
nrnnnslllnn Of the 8lt0 Which IS
most advantageous for tho opera
tion of the mill, and report that
efforts would be mado to land the
site to put over a land deal are
tirniv without foundation. Mr.
Berrv hnn had over 30 years ex
pcrlenco In practicnl linen manu
facture In Canada and heavy
Btockholders state that ho Is log
ically tho man to detormino upon
the site, tho location to De ueiurm
lncd according to the site's fitness
for tho mill's purposes.
Look For Machinery
Col. W. B. Bartrum Is now on
hto way to Canada to determine
ynrtlv tho nrlce of tho machinery
necessary for tho new mill and will
bo back In Salem witn nis repon
In time for tho first stockholders'
meeting.
Under the articles of Incorpora
tion tho capital stock of $040,000
la divided into 6000 share of pre
ferred Btock at $100 a share, or
fAfin .000. and 140.000 worlll of
common Block at $100 a share.
The preferred atock hi to carry 7
per cent lnttrest, dividends for a
payment of Interest on preferred
atock to accumulate and bo paid
before dividends arc declared on
common stock. Tho corporation is
to havo tho right and option to
retlro preferred atock or nny part
of It at any time after five years
from the date of organization at
$105 per aharo, plus accumulated
dividends. The preferred stock so
retired Is to be selected by lot from
the entire lasue.
Tho subscription campaign In
Portland for Its quota of stock has
been advancing, although some
what slowly, but a substantial
block of stock has been subscribed
thero and buBinesa men In charge
of tho aulwcriptiona say that the
balance will bo surely forthcoming
and that tho commlttco does not
Intend to discontinue Ita labor
toward securing tho quota until it
la forthcoming.
Hvo Chniico To Snvo
Tho Salem committee, In tho
meantime, has been making some
Investigations Into tho cost of ma
chinery and general properties In
relation to the operation of the
mill, and havo ascertained that
material saving can bo mndo from
the original estimates. As
ult It was determine 1 that noth
ing iurther atood In tho way of
rolnpr ahead Iwth tho Incor
poration of the mill and taking
actunl steps toward Its construc
tion at tho earliest possible time.
It was considered that any fur
ther delay In the Incorporation
might result In a into start next
year, but under tho present plans
there Is no doubt now that the
mill can bo constructed, machin
ery Installed, and evory thing In
actual operation In plenty of time
for the 192)1 harvest, ao that far
mers under contract will have
their flax Immediately taken off
their hands and nt the same time
the mill will bo ready to Immed
iately start In on the manufacture
of linen.
To Make Uncus
Tho plan Is for tho mill at the
first jump to start tho manufacture
of a high grade of linen, a type
which already hna a widely estab
lished market In tho United States,
but which can bo manufactured
here without, any competition
whatsoever In the United States as
far as manufacture Is concerned.
On top of that tho linen will be
protected by a 65 per cent nd va
lorem duty against foreign compe
tition, which will plnco the pro
duct from tho linen mill virtually
Sitting on top of the world.
According to Mr. 8annon, pro
moter of tho Balem project, hlin
aelf a Canndlon manufacturer of
many years experience, and a $68.
000 aubscrlber to tho Salem mill,
260 men will be employed In the
local mill on an eight hour ehl't
when It starts In operation. A ti
hour ahlft would employ three
times that number.
All of tho labor In tho new mill
will be drawn from Salem resi
dents, with the exception of the,
killed hands, auch as auperln
nndcnti. foremen, export machin
ists and variouu experts, who will
como from Canada, all of them
men of long exporlenco In the
manufacture of linen products.
