(j 'foDfcRN HAY'MIRA^^ j] Synthetic Chemistry, After Learning the Secret of 1 Making Royal Purple, Succeeds in Producing „ All the Colors of the Rainbow fTofd in Elgnt Sketches) , *y JOHN RAYMOND No. V r color

In -the dim apes of history when man r -frst felt the desire for beauty,-traders c toirchec! the world for dyestuns, jew- < el*, perfumes, spices and precious t woods. The risk of these, voyages was t i«r eat and only princes or nobles could i Afford the fruits of ventures to the far c Earners of the wot id. No man of c Swmble origin could aspire to the rich i Eunsoned linen, the Royal Purple of t cient Tyre, rr .ailing at $600 a pound, t Royal Purple is an age-old insignia t aristocracy. This dye was secreted ( •fry a small shellfish on the Eastern | (coast of the Mediterranean and here < i the enterprising merchant's of Tyre i 'formed a dye monopoly equaled only t U the German Cartel. A bit of the whitish liquid secreted by f _ <bis molluslr, if spread upon a cloth c end exposed to the air and sunlight r "tarns first green, next blue and then j r-ple. If washed with an alkali soap f becomes the magnificent Crimson r «rorn by the Cardinals and Pritoces of i sfce Catholic Church. Tyri»n purple ' vanished from the marts of the world « •with the fall of Tyre. J " » Synthetic chemistry learned the se- t tret of making Royal Purple as, to4eci, it learned to manufacture indigo, i Che same deep blue that may be seen Coday in museums, the winding sheets c •f Egyptian mummies. It was an achievement to snatch its distinctive I color from royalty and to rival the I test 'vegetable indigo of the an- J cient* bnt modern chemistry has i gone far beyond that Today any kind i Of dye found in. nature can be made in < . (he laboratory. Indeed, among the 900 | chades snd colorsri>eing manufactured ' there are tints that it would be diffi- I cult to discern id the rainbow. ] Th"r co'°™ 1 derstood that coal •

colfe, in which pw»coal tar is obtained, is the only I metallurgical operation ttat America duct in a large (VfffMmmiiii] measure, after the \rf||lMpa*r«y manner of a -cen- ft tury ago. In' I91S if there were 41,500,- II f J|**» V tons of coke 11 I produced in this country for which |lal]F|| almost 61,000,0001— MA11U— of coal were used. Because of the enormous demands for war materials modern by-product were constructed and in 1919, more than 52 per cent of our coke topply came from these oven*. It is estimated that for every ton of coke made in modern by-product ovens there is saved in fuel alone 825 pounds of coal. When a house-holder burns a ton of coal hi has sacrificed something like 11,000 cubic feet of gas, nine gallons of tar, twenty-five pounds, of ammonium sulphate, 2.08 gallons of pure benzol and 0.56 gallons of pure toluoL In our industrial life the use of coal derivatives is just beginning to be felt. The rubber industry depends upon these products for solvents, compounding ingredients and softeners. Practically all types of paint now use a derivative of coal. Printing inks, shoe polishes, brake linings, dry cleaners, perfumes, explosives, linoleums, 1 glues, pastes and photographic developers,' contain coal i products as basic ingredients. The paper industry, the soap business, and the shoe manufacturer would be in serious difficulties without the by-produCts of coal tar. The electrical industry would lose its chief source of insulating material and the doctors -and druggists would be • without a sufficient supply of phenol _ : to make their supply of everyday drugs. ' Coal tar, the refuse of ancient vegetable kingdoms, is valuable because it • produces a ghlaxy of brilliant colors, - not so much for the colors themselves" • ; but ' because in producing them ao [ many intermediates are developed that ■ are of inestimable worth to the indusi trial life of the nation.'
