ADMITS DISCOVERY
OF CATALYST HERE
DR.. CottreI| Says 1t Means
Much in Operation of
Nitrate Plants.

Discovery here of new cataIyst
bringing about union of hydrogen and
nitrogen atoms and yielding IA pc,
cent of ammonia, announced by Prof
Arthur b. Lamb of Harvard Univer.
sity last night. was confirmed here
today at the Fixed Nitrogen Labora-
tory which has worked two years OF
the problem.
The laboratory. established during
the war because of American needs
, for nitrogen particularly for eX-
plosives. has been continued under
the Department of Agriculture be-
cause Of increasing American require.
ments for nitrogen in the production
Of fertilizers. and to obtain further
! information necessary for the peace
time utilization of the government
nitrate plants at Sheffield and Muscle
Shoals. Ala.
DR.. F. G.. Cottrell, director of the
laboratory. said today the new cata-
lySt had been developed under di-
rection of A. T. Larson. in charge OF
the direct synthetic ammonia process

field. Ala, was designed to operate
in accordance with that process. bu,

ably the greatest single achievement
OF the institution since its inception.
Obstacle Removed.

Attorney General Promises
Statement Within Few
Hours After Full Discussion
of Situation With President
WOULD QUIT REGARDLESS
OF RESULTS OF INQUIRY
Present Plan Involves Announce
ment of Such Intention in Ad-
vance-Doubt Felt That Step
Would Placate His Critics in
Senate-Coolidge Silent.
BY ;hc Associated Press.

BS tIc Associated fress
An offer by Attorney General
Daugherty to retire to private lite
when the Senate completes its IN
vestigation of his official acts is be-
Iieved in some administration Cir
cles TO be imminent.
Under the plan he would step out
OF the cabinet regardless OF the out
come of the Senate inquiry, and
would announce that intention to
the country in advance.
A statement from him is expected
before the day is over. There is a
belief in some quarters that it may
end the bitter controversy OF which
he has become the center.
There still are some of President
Coolidge's advisers, however, who
believe that a promise to resign at
future date will not satisfy the
Attorney Generals critics in the
Senate.
COnfers With Coolidge.
Whether it would be entirely sat
isfactory to Mr.. Coolidge himself re-
mains undisclosed. He conferred for
an hour again today with the At
torney General, but made no state
ment.
From the start the Attorney Cen
oral has insisted he would not retire
from office under fire, and the plan
to announce his willingness to re-
Si In ~ ha tn in
restigation was suggested in the
hope that it would satisfy his own
desires in that regard and at the
same time meet the persistent de-
nands of republican Senate leaders
that he retire.
The President has considered pains
takingly how such a compromise
might be worked out. He has confer
red with all parties to the contro-
rersy, and has sought the advice of
his closest personal friends in an ef-
fort to compose one of the most diff
ficuN situations with which he has
had to deal since he entered the
White House.
Has Adams support.
The advice of the republican Senate
leaders was that the Attorney General
resign Immediately. In his refusal
10 do so Mr.. Daugherty had the
public support of Chairman Adams of
the republican national committee
and a few republican senators. The
whole maze of conflicting ad
vice was brought under scrutiny
late last night at conference between
the President, Secretary Slemp. Frank
Stearns, a longtime friend, and William
NJ. Butler, manager of the Coolidge
presidential campaign.
The results of that conference were
laid before Mr.. Daugherty this morning
by Mr.. Coolidge, in a frank talk of
more than an hour at the White House.
Afterward the Attorney General said
his statement would be issued before the
day was over.
