Charles l.. Parson. Of Washington. Sec

of the American Chemical society here.
Delegates said that the living cost will
be reduced millions Of dollars by
chemical inventions and discoveries.
A recent discovery by Fred g. Cott.

States bureau of mines, Of lead sub
stitute in the manufacture of insecti-
cides, is expected to save millions OF
dollars of farm products and assist in

cause insecticides, made chiefly of lead
componds, were beyond the reach of
the poorer farmers" Secretary Parson
explained.
by Mr.. Cottrell's discovery, arsenic
is recovered from smoke issuing from
copper smelters and this has made it
possible for chemists to substitute calium
magnesium for lead, greatly reducing the
cost Of insecticides.
''Then again, the chemist has kept
down the price of paint. Paint would
be SIS to SIG gallon. instead Of s. to

pome and tilaneum possible as a substi-
tute for lead and zinc in paint making"
Delegates say they look on this con-
vention as a celebration Of the chemical
independence of the United States from
the prewar dependence upon other
countries.
