CHEMIST SAYS NITRATE PLANT
WORTHLESS FOR FERTILIZERS
Testifying Before House Com
mittee Parsons Says Plant Was
Designed for Other Purpose.
fsv The Assoeiated Press

WASHINGTON. March 1s-Charles l..
Parsons, consulting chemist and former
technical adviser to the government on
nitrate fixation. testified today before
the House military committee that Henry
Ford, any other persons and company
would 'Iose their last penny" before they
ever produce commercial fertilizers at
nitrate plant number 2, at Muscle Shoals,
Ala The plant which has cost the gov
ernment about $50, 100000 the witness
said, was designed to be operated only
by the Cynanamid Process of nitrate
fixation an obsolete method, and was
worthless as a fertilizer producer.
The Cyanamid process was condemned
hv Krr Parsons as obsolete and econom-
ically impossible, having been super
s,Ced Le declared. by the Haber i'm
proved methods. It was his conviction.
he added, that the Muscle Shoals plant
could not be redesigned to produce com
lnercial fertilizers, this judgment was
based. he explained, on thorough in
yestigation of the cyananid plants in
Europe, many Of which were being closed
down by bankrupt operators. while 9TH
ers already had gone out Of business be-
cause they could not compete with estab-
iishnents using the Haber improvements.
As to the future use of the plant, at
Muscle Shoals, Mr.. Parsons recommended
that it be kept in a standby condition
for emergency use in war time and de-
clarea that that was its only present
value insofar as its worth as fertilizer
factory was. concerned.
Contrary to reports, Mr.. Parsons de-
clared nitrate plant number one, designed
to operate by the Haber process had
been a successful experiment and could
be altered for 1000. 900 or S1,50oooo and
used successfully in the production Of
nitrates and fertilizer compounds. Mr..
Ford's whole fortune would be dissipated,
the witness added, II he attempted to-
manufacture fertilizers at plant number
two at a profit. applying the Cyananlid
process or any other TO which the estab-
Iishment might be converted.
The Cysnamid and Haber methods
were go different, Mr.. Parsons explained,
that il would be impossible ever TO apply
the latter to plant number two without
removing It from the ground.
It was the opinion Of the witness that
no individual or company would ever at
tempt fertilizer production on a CONNER
cial scale By leasing plant number two
He urged the committee TO make sure"
that Mr.. Ford would produce cheaper
fertilizers for the farmers before con-
sress accepted the proposal for purchase
and lease Of the Muscle Shoals properties,
or that Of any other bidder who con-
ternpiated supplying the nations agri-
cultural needs with cheaper soil foods
produced at the SEQ. GOO, 900 plant.
