 Although he battled his way to the top of the German dye in dustry by virtue of his own un- aided achievements, it was not in the university of hard knocks that he got his preliminary train ing. He was born at Barmen, Ger many September 29, 1861, the son of well-to-do business man and he thus inherited as matter of course the opportunity of equip ping himself with what the best had to offer.
 Interested in Chemistry
 At the universities of Gottingen and Jena he developed an absorb ing interest in chemistry and econ omics, a linking of enthusiasms which struck some of his profes- sors as peculiar. The link between and industry was not very obvious in those days.

HUEY' LONG WAS ATTACKED IN THE

Compared to Nero By Democrat Member From
 Louisiana

Washington, Feb 1 - U.P.) - Democratic government in Louis- jana is being replaced by the "As- iatic Conception" of an all-power- full chief executive, Representative J. Y. Sanders, democrat, Louisiana, said in the house to-day in an att tack on Senator Huey Long and his political allies.
 Sanders, one of Louisiana's "old guard" and an opponent of Long, charges that there has been no such concentration of power in the hands of any American executive since the signing of the declaration of independence" as there is now in his state.
 "The dominant faction in the state, under the leadership of the spokesman for that faction, has shown a steadily increasing dis trust of and contempt for demo- cratic institutions and for the pro- cesses of democratic government" |" Sanders said. Charges by Long of "plots" to assassinate him and get him out of the way were decried by Sanders. "It Is to be noted that these 'plotters' are never brought to trial" he said.
 Human nature changes little Some 2,000 years ago Nero used to uncover plots against his person as the excuse to rid himself of Ro- mans who were too popular with the people or who had money and jobs that he wanted. Judging the future by the past would say that this alleged plot in Baton Rouge recently announced will make it necessary for those in power to put out of office men elected by the people who had the courage and fortitude to fight tn emachine, fill-
