Powerful Syndicate Forms
Flans To Incorporate For
$50,000,000
New York, Nov. 23 Seeking to reach
out in the world's marts and establish
America as the foremost trader of the
world, Morgan, Rockefeller, National
City bank and Kuhn, Loeb & Stone and
Webster interests this afternoon filed
papers at Albany, N. Y., to incorporate
a $50,000,000 organization to be known
as the American International com
pany. This concern proposes to dabble in
vast enterprises all over the world. The
war furnished its opportunity. End of
the war will increase this, its sponsors
believe.
Europe is partially bankrupt; its fin
ancial condition will be worse before it
is better. In such circumstances, the
organizers of this giant organization
expect to reap a harvest financing en
terprises which might otherwise be put
forever out of business.

Thanksgiving
Is With Us
V
It seems to us that we all have more reason than
usual to be thankful. While we are peacefully work
ing our way through Turkey and Cranberry sauce,
Mince Pie, Plum Pudding, etc., our brothers acress
the Pond will be assimilating gas-bombs and grape
shot and likely wondering what in the world they
have to be thankful for. And the mothers and
wives, sisters and daughters, widows and orphans,
can you imagine them when they sit down to their
meager repast? Truly we have plenty to be thank
ful for; we thank the people of Salem who appreciate
our efforts in reducing the high cost of living in
Salem. We thank you for your splendid co-operation
and patronage.

ary reports from the interior of Sonora
today said that Francisco Villa had re
turned to the attack on Hermosillo nnd
was engaging the Carranzistag there in
stubborn fresh fighting. If this is true,
it means Villa is staking everything on
entering the city beforo General Die
guez arrives with Carranzista reinforce

way bridges burned and roads obstruct
