Stolen Patents,

The most sensational discovery ever
made by chemists was the synthe-
sis of dyes. Previous to the work of
William Henry Perkin, all dyes were
of animal or plant colors. and were
slow and costly in the making. 1t
was supposed that their chemistry
was a complicated process that could
never he initiated. But Perkin found
accidently that coal tar can easily be
converted into aniline. the chemical
constituent of indigo. Soon alizarin.
the source of madder. was synthe-
sized, and before long most dyes were
easily and cheaply initiated by the
chemists.
Perkin took out good patents In
England and France to protect him
self. but when he applied to Germany
for a patent the officials first insisted
on knowing his process in detail.
then refused the patent. and soon
one of the marvellous new German
dyes we We're all taught to admire
Germany for would be on the
market.
Now what do you know about
that?
