Il 70 only recently that thN word
"rhcmtcal" lost It's old significance. Th"
word now recalls 10 US other pictures
than those OF shirts and collars cheml-
caliy washed and prcmaturcly deceased.
In truth, to-day. few products
whether necessities or luNur'cS. escape
chemical treatment or. chemical manu-
featuring control. Clothes, BE- they white
or colored; foods: the very furnishings
Of home and official require chemI-
Gals in their production.
Yet chemicals themselves seldom
charm the eye. cnticc the palate, or d.
rcctly satisfy our uev"r-vndtrg search
for happiness. They ar" tools or pro

The statement that \ nations manu-

among chemists and IS accepted by
others with more or less reserve.
A typical example Of the growthc q!
chamical industry is the COkIng OF coal.
and the recovery. publication and Unit

number Of overs more than doubled BE-
cause OF tho pressing need during the
past three years. The coke. gas and tar
nave DCcN consumed "a st'Al H'1N 49,

been bitter.
Specific portions OF tho increased tar
recovered were essential for the prrScr-
walton Of timber for the new wharv"S
and railroads ncCcsSItatcd by our troop
and supply movements.
Tho increased ammonia production
could not meet even one o' many de-
mands-that OF the fabrication "t am

Qu'r"mcnts.
The need for materials OF war had
ceased As in ages past swords ar"
again forged into rlowshares. ChcmI-

Powder plants ar" wrecked and EQUIP
