FROSH LAW STUDENTS
ORGANIZE OPEN FORUM
WiU Hold Meetings On Wednes
day Evening Each Month
Open to Student Body
The freshman law students have or
ganized an Open Forum for the bene
fit of all the men students In the Uni
versity. The purpose of the Forum
will be the discusaldn of student
problems and development of student
opinion. The meetings will be held
one Wednesday evening, each month,
In Room 107 of the Law building.
Two speakers will be prepared in
advance for each meeting, one to at
tack and the other to defend the topic
to be discussed at the nest meeting.
Each of these men will have the
floor for five minutes to present his
arguments. After these introductory
speeches have been made, the meet-;
ing will be thrown open to all who
are present and each person, by ad
dressing the chair, will be given three
minutes to express his Ideas on the
subject. The meetings will last about
forty-five minutes and at the end of
that time a vote will be taken from
those present and their decision will
be made public. This will afford the
students excellent training in put lit
speaking and will form a nucleus for
the development of student opinion
Five men are responsible for the
noitivitie8 of this new organization.
Three are students and two are fac
ulty members. The students are;
Frank Watson. Welch Pogue, and
Giles H Inkle. The faculty members
are Dean Seavey of the Law School
and Professor Fogg of the Depart
ment of Journalism.
PROF. UPSON TALKS
TO FROSH ENGINEERS
Discusses Chemical Engineering
at Weekly Gathering of First
Year Engineering Men
"Germany controlled, before the
war. all the organic chemical indus
tries of the world that are dependent
on coal tar." said Prof. F. W. Upson,
chairman of the department of chem
istry, in speaking to freshman engi
neers on certain phases of chemical
engineering, Monday at 5 o'clock In
M. E. 206.
"The United States sold all of her
coal tar that was ever utilized to Ger
many and bought it back at greatly in
creased cost in the form of finished
products. Ninety percent of America's
coal tar was usked as fuel or thrown
out before the war. And coal tar pro
duction is linked inseparably with the
metallurgical industries, since in the
manufacture of the coke used in them,
coal tar is a natural by-product. Dyes,
photographic chemicals, drugs aud vir
tually all the modern explosives are
obtained from coal tar.

"Prior to 1914 American chemical
Industries were confined, with a few
exceptions, to the Inorganic class.
Among the more Important were:
metallurgical industries; manufacture
of alkalies; production of chlorine;
production of sulphur; manufacture of
heavy acids; production of fertilizer,
largely from Imported substances;
end production of radium. In fact the
United States was the chief producer
of radium In the world.
"Growth in American chemical In
dustries as a result of the war was
ronllned largely to the organic class,
all the more Important of which link
themselves up with coal tar.
"The German idea seemed to be to
gain control of large Industries by
ownership of small, apparently Insig
nificant. key-Industries. She manufac
tured 90 per cent of the world's dyes
and 95 per cent of America's, and on
this smaller Industry the enormous
textile industry was hopelessly de
pendent an industry that produces in
lore year in the I nited States a value
of $.V(HH0OO.OOO. and In the whole
wvll at least five times that amount.
T foreign property custodian dis
covered that nearly all of the plants
manufacturing magnetos for motor
vehicles In this country were German
owned and controlled. So. Germany
was able to balk the allied air program
and to keep a close check on the pro
duction of motor vehicles in this coun
try. "Through her control of the dye in
dustries, Germany was also able to
control to a large extent the manu
facture of explosives. Modern high
power explosives can be prodnced in
dye factories, using the same raw ma
terials, the same machinery, and the
same workmen. Thus Germany had a
potential muntions industry.
"Germany was able to use her con
trol of these key-industries as a weap
on. When the United States was cut
off from her supply of dyes by the
allied blockade of German ports, she
suggested to congress that if it would
intercede with Great Britain to lift
the blockade she would supply this
country with dyes. And upon the dye
industry, not only the textile industry
was dependent, but also a host of
lesser industries were panic stricken.
'Government authorities immediate
began to develop an American dye
industry. Along with this develop
ment a nitrogen fixation plant was
built at Muscle Shoals and a drug in
dustry was developed with the result

ti in on
that even better products were made
In American than were previously ob
tained solely from Gormany. In 1900
Germany had an excellent excuse for
bringing on a war, but It Is said that
military officials requested that It be
held up until the nitrogen fixation
process was perfected. This process,
which obtains the materials for nitric
acid, an essential In the manufacture
of both explosives and fertilizers, from
the air, was perfected in Germany In
1912," Dr. Upson stated.
"It is probable that In twenty-five
years the major part of the gasoline
supply will come from oil shale. This
shale contains for more petroleum
than the entire world supply, but the
present cost of manufacture la pro
hibitive. Aside from the URe of petro
leum products as fuels, the petroleum
Industries furnish a big field for chem
ical engineers. Five years ago it was
unknown thnt many of the higher al
cohols could be obtained from petro
leum. These alcohols are used In the
manufacture of varnishes, paints, and
in the cellulose Industries." he con
tinued. "Chemists are of three classes. The
research chemists, of whom large
numbers are employed by" such com
panies as the General Electric Com
pany, the Dupont Company, and the
Eastman Kodak Company; control
chemists, primarily analysists, who
check the materials at various stages
in processes of manufacture; and
chemical engineers who are Interested
In large scale production.
"The chemical engineer has been
defined recently as a physical chemist
with an engineer's point of view. The
course offered here only fits the gvad
uate to become an apprentice. His
final success depends on the same
qualities that would make him a suc
cess in any field. Employers com
plain that the chief failing of new
chemical engineering graduates is
their inability to apply the funda
mental principles of chemistry, phy
sics and mathematics to the problems
in hand. So, the chief purpose of the
University is to ground tho student in
the fundamentals with which to se
cure an education, for, after, all life
is only a process of education," Dr.
Upson concluded.

What iAre the Toung
Men Up To?
"There may be something in this new art," you say, "but I
don't get it; one modern thing looks as queer as the next to
me. What's it all about what zvz the new men up to?"
The Dial
is the one American magazine, to intelligently explain the mean
ing and interpret the trend of the new movements in art and
literature. It is the only magazine which publishes side by side
the best work produced by Americans
the best work produced abroad
the best work in traditional siyhs
the best work in the modern manner
in fiction, poetry, essays, criticism, and reproductions of the
fine arts.
You know that in a few years certain of our contemporaries,
whose work is anathema to the present generation, will stand
out like giants. They will be hailed as great artists and geniuses
by those who now lack the critical discernment to understand
what they are trying to do. The genius of Swift, Milton, Blake,
Moliere, Ibsen, Shelley, Poe, Thoreau, Melville, and Whitman,
to mention only a few, went unrecognized, except by the dis
criminating minority, in their own generation. Don't wait for
the next generation to sec your contemporaries in perspective,
but enjoy their work now in The Dial, and accord them your
appreciation while they are yet alive.
In addition to the best work by the new generation, The Dial
presents the finest work by established writers: Joseph Conrad,
E. A. Robinson, George Moore, Thomas Hardy, and Anatole
France, appearing side by side with Sherwood Anderson, E. E.
Cummings, Waldo Frank, Van Wyck Brooks, T. S. Eliot, D.
H. Lawrence, and Ezra Pound. The Dial thus offers you the
unusual pleasure of comparing and criticizing.
