And now someone comes across with the remark that The Daily ought not to take ads of billard halls--out of respect for the minors who are not allowed to inhabit them.

SEES OPPORTUNITY FOR Usa CHEMICALINDUSTRY Address of B. L. Murray, '97, Quoted in Literary Digest for March 4 That the outlook is favorable for the building up of a successful and profit- able chemical industry in the United States, was the statement made by 13. L. Murray, '97, chief chemist of Merck & Co., in a recent address be- :ore the National Association of Manu- 'acturers of Medicinal Products in New York. The speech is quoted in the Weekly Drug Markets and also in he Literary Digest for March 4. Mr. Murray called attention to the enlargement of existing plants, forced )y scarcity due to the breakout of war, ;id also the new establishments which nave arisen, increasing the output of ?ormer manufacturers and creating supplies of materials for which we oreviously depended upon foreign countries. There is a broad and substantial basis, Mr. Murray thinks, on which 'he American chemical industry may exist and compete with that of other countries. "There are only a few nec- essary raw materials," he said, "of which we have no native supplies and these other countries will furnish us willingly." To bring out his point he :'eviewed the whole situation of drugs and the supply of the raw materials in the United Stat's, and pointed out that . , g Otis Skinner, at the Whitney Theater, Saturday, March 11. we lack no natural aids, such as coal Your new spring bonnet will be and natural gas.
