-=
So Declares Research Ex-
pert at Rotary Lunch
Today

Members OF the Rotary club at
their weekly meeting at the Y. N.
G. A. today absorbed a lot Of chem.
istry along with their luncheon
Hilton i. Jones. a research expert
who is here with the Chautauqua,
impaired some Of it, and Clarence
D. Robinson impaired the rest. It
probably would take a lengthy in,
yestigation to determine which talk
er aroused the most interest In the
recesses Of Rotary brains.
However, the Jones talk was de-
cidedly interesting, for It bore upon
the necessity for cooperation be.
tween big business and creative
chemistry il this country is TO keep
pace with the rest OF the world In
industrial progress.
Mr.. Jones, who. by the way.
halls from Oklahoma, and Is a Ro.
tartan himself, declared that a very
large proportion OF the epoch max.
ing chemical discoveries In the past
100 years have been made in this
country. In the field Of original
work we are head and shoulders
above all the other nations of the
world, and yet the close associa.
tion between the government; big
business and science ih Germany
mad II ossihle for the Germans
'toycome close 10 leading the, world
ifili the pra ctical results from the
chemical discoveries made here.
Mr.. Jones also said that with
possibly two exceptions this state
lis the most favored section In tho
union from the standpoint Of CO.
IoperattonSb between chemical science
and business, and he urged the
business men of Fairmont to do
what they can to bring about a more
effective cooperation between the
two great modern forces. He called
attention to the progress that has
been made in glass making in this
country in the few years since the
glass makers, especially those con:
nected with the Corning research
work; began to make free use OF tho
assistants Of scientific research men
as an instance Of what can be
done.
Thanks to the Corning research
work this country is nowIndepend-
ent OF the rest of the world in tho
making OF both glass and porcelain
and Is moreover making the best
grade of both that is being pro.
duced.

clearly what peIplexities trouble the
mind of the President-elect.
Surveying the necessities of the post,
Senator Harding made up his mind early
that II was necessary to have Secre-
tary of Labor who would lend his great
Influence toward increasing production,
for greater productiveness was the key
to the economic situation. in the judg-
ment of the Pesident-elect. He desired
also a man who knew how to compro-
mise alterations that could be dealt
with in their early stages. He wanted
to get the country to work. These large
points of view were met at once by the
demand of labor unionism for a Secre-
tary Of Labor who would be one of its
creed.
Four men have been put up" to Sen
ator Harding in this light. Among them
are w. @. Lee. head of the Brotherhood
of Railway Trainmen James OConnell
head Of the Metal Workers. and two oil
three others. These are the union mer
| that Senator Harding has had under
consideration.
His study of the situation has beer
| interrupted by fervent protests agains
the appointment of any labor uniol
leader at all. 1t is situation which ha
4 caused the President-elect good deal o
vexaton and which has increased tn
tension under which he labors at pres
ent. AS has been said, it is probabl
| that he will have to work out at leas
four trying Cabinet problems during hi
