.BAT'A WILL BUILD
MARYLAND PLANT
Giant Czech Shoe Company
Selects Location in Har-
ford County.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

BALTIMORE, November Is. - The
Czechoslovakian firm of Bat'a, giant of
the shoe industry. this week acquired a
900-acre tract of land in Hartford Coun-
ty, near Belcamp. confirming reports
that it intends to establish in Mary
land new principally in their world
wide industrial empire.
Founded by Thomas Bat'a, who toured
the world by airplane selling shoes un-
til his death in a crash last year. the
firm operates vast factories in many
countries.
1t operates on large-scale production
methods similar to Henry Fords, and,
according to reports last September, the
firms plans for the Maryland factory
include construction of a whole village
to house their future employees.
The purchase of the land was con-
firmed through Ernest Volkert, attor-
ney for william H. Langley and his
wife, who are reputed to have received
$40, 900 for the tract.
The tract is on the Bush River
Last September the first report
emanated from New York that Bat'a
had taken options on the land and
were obtaining estimates from building
contractors.
Last month v. Karf1k, American rep
resentative Of the firm, announced that
the plan had been abandoned indefinite
ly on orders from John Bat'a, new head
of the European company.
Just as mysteriously the plans now
seem to haven been taken up again.

700 New Products
OfChemical Firms
Will Be Displayed
Dispatch to IT, Star.

Specie, Dispatch to TEo Star.
NEW YORK, November 25.-Seven
hundred new products. children Of the
depression" discovered and made by go
manufactures in 40 industries regis
tered as chemical, represent the chem
ical industry's efforts to solve the prob
lens of shrinking profits and vanishing
trade during the four-year slump.
About 100 of these new products. or
adaptations of them, will be shown
here to the public for the first time
early in December, at the fourteenth
Chemical Exposition, the first held
since 1880. During this period research
laboratories have evolved products that
not only touch the life of every per-
son in this country, but have been Gre
ating numerous new industries which
are using and will require hundreds Of
workers.
The new products are being as
sembled by the American Chemical
Society, under the direction of DR.. H. E.
Howe and D. H. Killeffer. Some OF
them are so new that one leading
chemical engineer remarked. Many OF
us feel like We are going to school
again" .
One new chemical is said to control
the breathing of living cells. Many
other synthetic chemicals are substi-
tutes for materials in every day use.
