have gained from coking. The results of our awakening are shown in thenewly issued summary of the 1920 census. In 1914 the United States had 754 establishments manu-facturing chemicals, with products worth $200,195,800. In 1920 it had 1,374 establish-ments, with products worth $694,643,000. The increase in the value of the products in six years was 247 per cent. The manufacture of potash and potassium products was slightly more than twice as great-measured in value-as in 1914; that of acids about two and a half times as great; that of sodas and sodium almost three times as great, and that of coal tar products was $133,340,000, as against $8,839,000 in 1914, or about fifteen times as great.Gratifying as this progress is, the complex-ity of some essential chemical industries, the careful adjustments they must establish with other industries, render more progress necessary before we are safe. Leaders in the coal-tar business, which are vital to national defence, declare that although we have far surpassed all other nations except Germany and Switzerland, we need five years yetto make our position impregnable. For the time being many of our drug-making and dye-making firms-we had 213 companies making these and other coal-tar products last year-have a right to complete tariff protection. The chemists at Columbia University have adopted resolutions asking for a" selective embargo." Any embargo needed in certain parts of this field can and should be provided by wise tariff legislation, and not, as some demand, by the arbitrary decrees of a licensing bureau.-New York Evening Post.
