New Ycrk.—Fiatly refusing to return to the United States government a) single chemical patent right owned by the Chemical Foundation, Inc, of which he 1s president, Francis P. Gar- van, in a spirited and energetic letter to President Harding, asserted that the President, “grossly misled by the attorney-general,” is, for the first time in American history, attempting to abrogate a solemn Executive order of a predecessor, and is acting, moreover, op information “furnished by German agents aud Interpreted by lawyers whose sole knowledge of the war and its lessons is derived from association with German clients.” Absolute legality in the sale of 4,700 and odd former German patents to the Foundation, and complete publicity in the organization and operation of this quasi-public institution, together with the highest of ethical motives, are earnestly maintained by Mr, Garvan in his communication, and he asserts with emphasis that no person connected with the Foundation has ever made a dollar out of It, or ever could do so under its charter and by-laws, himself least of au; he fortifies that statement with figures which show that the capl- tal of the institution consisted of $428,- 900, all of which has been spent In the purchase of the patents and in educat- ing the people through schools and colieges and In the encouragement of chemical socteties, and says that the Foundation income from Icenses bare- ly meets the modest running expenses. All of these financial details have long been available, Mr. Garvan re- minds President Harding, and demands that the President ascertain the truth and tell the people whether the Foun- dation and tts head have deserved the abuse they have received. “Gave All and Got Abuse” “It 1 given its all,’ Mr. Garvan writes. “You tan take away nothing but the opportunity of service. It was all we got from the government. It Is all we have. “Mr. President, you have had the temerity to impugn the honor of the gentlemen who boast a part In the great work of building up or preserv- ing the possibility of progress In or. ganle chemistry for America, You have again been misinformed as to the hature of the trust we bore. That trust was not ‘for the German Kartel, the owner of practically all the important patents, who had received them under the unthinking graciousness of laws they had Induced. That trust was for the American people, thelr industrial independence and for the safety and health of their children and their chil dren's children” At the outset of his letter Mr. Garvar states that he has forwarded to the Alien Property Custodian the Chemlc.:) Foundation’s formal answer to his demand, an answer “as an American corporation ready at all times to de fend Its rights in the courts,” but that the public in whose Interests the Foun- dation was organized, ts entitled to be fully Informed as to the clreumstances under which the demand was made and the reason why it is unqualifiedly re fused. The demand itself, Mr. Garvan asserts, together with the letter written by the President and the statement made by Attorney-General Daugherty, “demonstrate that you, Mr. President, have been grossly misied by the attor ney-general, both as to the law and the facts of the case.” Eliminating “Enemy Interest” Therevpou Mr. G an contends (1) that the attorney-ge hus Ustened exclusively to German agents, which ts no Investigation; (2), that the United States government bas no interest in the suit brought by the Foundation to determine the ownership of funds held by the treasury; (3), that when Presi- dent Wilson authorized the sale of the German patents, neither the President, secretary of state nor allen property custodian was, under the law, in the remotest sense a trustee for the Ger- man enemies; (4), that specific power to sell the patents was granted by Con- gress after full committee hearings on November 4, 1938, and on December 3, 1918, President Wilson, vested with power to supervise al! soles, authorized Acting Secretary of State Frank L. Polk to approve the sale of the German chemical and other patents; (5), that on February 1919, Polk ordered the sale In the public Interest, noting that a public sale was not in the best in- terests of the public because it would offer opportunity for the patents to get into the hands of speculators and monopolists, and that the Chemical Foundation, obligated to grant non- exclusive licenses, was the best means for “eliminating alien interests hostile to American Industries and of the ad- vancemeut of chemical and allied in- dustries in the United States;" (6), that President Wilson, returning from abroad, confirmed Polk's order on Feb- ruary 13, 1920, with this comment: “My reasons for the foregoing determl- nation and order are stated in the sald orders of Frank L. Polk and in addition thereto, the public interest will be best served by the elimination of any enemy Interest adverse to American citizens arising by reason of said choses tn action, or rights, inter- ests and benefits under said agree- ments... .” “This sale,” Mr. Garvan continues, “was made in the full light of all branches of the government and In the full light of publicity. The idea of its formation was the result of the intl- mate knowledge of the past use of these patents In & manner hostile to the United States’ interests, and in full consultation with all of the executives of the government, the experts of our army and navy, and leaders of our chemical business organizations and the heads of all our scientific ard re- search organizations. I do not ask you nang fing Rar ard ‘weatem@nt of thie matter, but insert here an extract fram the — of A, Mitchell Palmer, filed with President February 22, 191%, and by on touxarded to the Congress, and by that Congress made a public document and most widely commented on by the press of the country.” Palmer's Version of It Mr. Palmer sisted in the course of the report refered to by Mr. Garvan: “These patents, us had already been indicated, formed a colossal obstacle to the development of the American dye- stuff industry. Evidently they had not been taken out with any Intention of manufacturing In this country or from any fear of American manufacture - . Upon consideration it seemed that these patents offered a possible solu- thon “for the problem, hitherto unsolv- able, of protecting the new American dye industry against German competi- | tion after the war... The idea was ‘accordingly conceivee that if the Ger- man chemical patents could be placed in the hands of any American tnstitu- tion strong enough to protect them, a real obstacle might be opposed to Ger- man Importation after the war, and at the same time the American industry might be freed from the prohibition en- red by the patents ugainst the man- ufacture of the most valuable dye- stuffs, Accordingly tese considerations were laid before various associations of | chemical manufacturers, notably the Dye Institute and the American Manu- factuting Chemists’ Association. The suggestion was met with an instan- taneous and enthusiastic approval, and | a8 a result a corporation has been or- | ganized to be known as the Chemical | Foundation (Inc.), in which practically every important manufacturer will be | stockholder, the purpose of which ts to acquire by purchase these German! patents and to hold them as a trustee | for American Industry. ,.. The first president of the*Chemical Foundation will be Francis P. Garvan of the New | York bar, to whose clear vision and In- defatigable industry I am chiefly in- debted for the working out of this plan. | The combination was not objection. | able to public policy, since it was so organized that any genuine American, whether a stockholder of the com pany or not, could secure the benefits of the patents on fair and equal terns.” A Quasi-Public Idea Mr. Garvan 8 on to state that at) that time he was a dollar a year man, with no expectation whatever of be-| coming allen property custodian; that it was only when Attorney-' General Gregory resigned and Palmer was ap- | pointed attorney-general that Palmer | asked him to take the custodian's | place. Three months Iater? he writes, | he testified before the Ways and Means | Committee of the honse;: “The founda- tion of the Chemical Foundation was | an effort to form an organization to represent as nearly as possible at that | tine the public interests, Judge In- | graham of New York and Judge Gray | of Delaware had charge of drawing | our charter and our trust agreement | and our certificate of incorporation, | We huve endeavored to make It as} nearly a public institution as our laws | allow, and at the same time to have it an official organization. We wanted to sell these patents to the govern-/| ment, and if there had been any) method by which we could make them a working force and still have them) owned and controlled by the govern- ment, It would have relieved us of «| great deal of responsibility, and it there Ia at this time any suggestion for moudificat'on or amendment of our plan which will insure in the minds of the conummittee a moie delinite and certain fulfillment of the Intention and pur- poses of our organization I am certain that the Chemical Foundation and all its:stockholders and all who are inter- ested In it would be glad to conform tu the wishes of the committee, be- cause, in 60 far as we have public rec- vgnition and public support and gov- ernment recognition and government! support, we become more efficient and become more able to carry out the In- tentions which are In our hearts and ininds.” Mr. Garvan states that the total or gross Income of the Foundation haa averaged $143,216.65 per year. The run- ning expenses, bare overhead, have averaged $121,971.35, a net excess of | 21,245.30 or .049 per cent on the $428,- 900 invested, allowing nothing for de- preciation. The average life of the! patents Is elght years, so that 12%) per cent of the $271,850 cash paid for | the patents, or $33,081 per year, | should be subtracted from the appar: | gnt net receipts per year, which leaves | an actual annual operation deficit of | $12,735.70. In educational work, Mr, Garvan informs the President, the} Foundation has spent $264,017.85, the | entire balance of its capital. Quotes English Prediction Firmly maintaining that the Founda- tion Is the keystone of the wall vaieed | | te protect the American people from | German chemical domination, Mr. Gar-} van maintains such protection is indis- pensable to the future happiness, health | and safety of the American people, and quotes from a recent open letter to parliament written by James Morton, largest carpet manufacturer of Eng land, “Organic chemistry is the key to the world of new values,’ and that America in five years’ time will have dye works and general chemical works | equal to Germany. As regards the development of or anic chemistry for national defense, r. Garvan calls to his ald testimony | by Marshat Foch and the late Field Marshal Sir Henry Wilson to the gen eral conclusion that a nation thorough ly equipped chemically may almost guarantee the peace of the future. And as regards its importance in the de velopment of medicine he quotes Prof. Julius Stiglitz of the University of Chicago, world famous chemist: “The pitiful calls of our hospitals for local anaesthetics to alleviate suffering | on the operating table, the frantic ap- | peals for the hypnotic that soothes the | epileptic and staves off his seizure, the almost furious demands for remedy | after remedy that came in the early | years of the war, are still ringing tn | the hearts of many of us. No wonder that our small army of chemists ts grimly determined not to give up the independence tn chemistry which the war achieved for us! Only a widely enlightened public, however, can in- sure the permanence of what far see- ing men have started to accomplish in developing the power of chemistry through research In every domain which chemistry touches.” “These,” Mr. Garvan concludes, “were the thoughts which were In the winds of the men who knew the war and its lessons when they formed the Shemlcal Foundation.” ons meee Che +t | has settled to the grated potato. “The memories dear that come to us our, The diets we have that de ot ail Ta sotas we love, «ook tn shaded These mane, pricalene ie SEASONABLE FOODS, ' The following ts a different way of serving bam, making a dish which is a whole meal, served ip one dish, aked Ham With Vegetables. —~—Take a slice of ham cut an inch thick; place in @ casserole and around It place two Bermuda onions sliced, five tomatoes sliced on the sume amount of cooked tomato, one- halt cupfal of water.
