MARTIN SEES BRIGHT
FUTURE FOR H0PEWELL
Secretary Of Petersburg Chamber OF
Commerce Discusses Powder
Town.
HAS INTERVIEW WITH BROWN
Vice-President of Du Pont Company
Says Company Expects to DO Large
Business at Hopcwcll After War
in Europe Is Over

Secretary ". NJ. Martin. OF the Cham
Der of Commerce Of Petersburg. was in
Richmond yesterday and stated that
conditions at Hopewcll had recently
been somewhat unfavorablcly affected
by the circulation OF bascless rumors
I'm regard to the plans Of T. I. du Pont
dc Nemours * Co.
He stated that the position Of the
Du Pont Company was simply this:
that while the Hopnwell plant had been
constructed primarily for the purpose
OF supplying the demands OF the entente
allies for military powders. and that
the company had received and expected
to continue 10 receive it's share of the
business, al the same time 1T fully
realizes that the European war cannot
continue indefinitely. and that il had
decided to put the plant to other uses
after the war.
Mr. Martin stated tina, he was in
Wilmington, Del, the latter part Of
last week and discussed the situation
with H. F. Brown. vice president. and
several other high officials of tho pu
Pont Company, and was informed by
them that the company expected al
ways to do a large business At Hope
well. and to employ as many opera tives
as the cha cter of tho business should
warrant.
There are now employed at the Hope
we'll plant more than $4,000 men. and
it is the policy Of the company to main
tain its organization as far as the de-
mands Of the business require.
ri linn n1
work in one of it's fourteen lines. which
had been built as reserve line.
MANY PRODUCTS NOT
CONNECTED WITH WAR
He also said that. perhaps, i, is not
generally known that the pu Font
Company manufactures many products
that are in no way connected with war
usage. Certainly SO far as the United
States is concerned, the pu Pont Com
pany's sales of military powders repre-
sent only a very small portion Of tho
company's business in explosives. so
small, in fact, that were ii not for tho
sale of powders for hunting, trap
shooting, etc, the smokelcss powder
mill could not be maintained at a
profit. The farmers of America use
about 100000 pounds Of dynamite
per year for clearing land. draining
swamps, planting trees and breaking
the impervious suhsol. II should also
be borne in mind. he said. that most of
the coal mines OF this country are
mined with explosives.
The Du Pont Company also owns
company manufacturing substitutes for
Gather. and about 60 per cent OF tne
automobiles manufactured in this
country are upholstered with these
leather substitutes.
The company also manufactures
chemicals of various kinds; in fact Il
list of these products includes more
than $50 distinct commodities. 1t is.
therefore perfectly certain that the
policy OF the company. after the war.
will be to use the enormous facilities
of its Hopewell plant 10 manufacture
such commercial products IS shall! be
recommended by the development de-
partmcnt OF the company. which Is
composed OF some OF the leading eN-
perts in the several branches OF the
industry.
