Fadeioss vat dyes, the report de- clares. are now being produced in the United States at prices below their cost in Germany. Savings aggregat- ing millions of dollars to American cotton manufacturers have resulted from the development of cheaper in- termediates for dye manufacture. These intermediates, particularly necessary for the vat dyes, are, it is said, actually being exported to Ger- many. “The American manufacturers of vat dyes,” says the report, “now have at their disposal cheap and pure prod- ucts with which to build up the com- plex molecules characteristic of these colors, which give the brightest shades and the most permanent col- ors yet made. Every household in the land has been affected by this change. “The rapidly fading colors of 1916 and 1917 and the waste entailed in replacement cost for clothes and dra- peries have given way to sun-fast, mo-fade clothes and materials. “These are possible,” the report adds, “because of the vat dyes, and the American vat dyes are with us because of the development of cheap aluminum chloride and phtahlic anhy- aride.” Tobacco Growers’ Meeting.
