GRANGE SPEAKERS SEE BETTER DAYS H. A. Sibley, Head of U. S. Chamber of Commerce, Lauds Soil Program, B the Associated Press. COLUMBUS, Ohio, November 13.— Economic improvement for American | agriculture was predicted yesterday by speakers at the annual session of the | National Grange, as it celebrated its seventieth birthday. Harper A. Sibley, Rochester, N. Y., president of the United States Chamber of Commerce, and Carl B. Fritsche, Dearborn, Mich.,, managing director of the Farm Chemurgic Council, told members of the country’s oldest farm organization that better days were coming. Sibley named three factors on which | e based his prediction—an increasing export market, greater purchasing power and growing use of agricultural products in industry. | “Fair prices for farm products are | essential for prosperity,” Sibley de- clared. He favored controlled produc- | tion in order that supply and demand | could be kept in balance. In this way fair prices can be maintained, he said | “Farmers should not make plans for the future on the basis of what has oc- | curred during the drought years,” Sib- ley said. “They should be guided by Swedish organization and branch of the five-year average in governing pro- duction. We will have bumper crops The speaker commended the Federal administration for its soil conservation program, declaring it “very sound.” Likewise, he had a good-word for the present foreign policy, which he said has resulted in increasing export trade. Sibley warned agajnst Government | eoercion in any farm program, main- | jnitiated and the famous Swedish taining it should restrict itself to co- operation. Problems of administra- tion pertaining to farm programs, he | cepted by lodges in Baltimore, Wil- | said, should be worked out by the farmers themselves as State groups with agricultural colleges and county agents, Fritsche told the grangers that in- dustrial use of farm products will prove to be their salvation in years to come. —_— P.-T.A. TO SEEK BOOKS FOR SCHOOL’S LIBRARY ®pecial Dispatch to The Star. SILVER SPRING, Md., November 13.—Plans for a drive for books for the library of the Takoma-Silver Spring Junior High School were an- nounced at a meeting this week of the Parent-Teacher Association. The drive will start immediately and will end with an assembly the | day before Thanksgiving, when the parents will be invited to visit the school and view the exhibit of books. It is planned to convert the school eorridor into & midway . for the oc- casion, where the books will be dis- played in attractive booths. Arrangements have been made to have W. P. A. workers put the books in shape before they are placed on the display. A plea for the public to donate books was made by the committee, which pointed out that the library should have 2,000 volumes of fiction instead of the 900 books now en its shelvés. BY the Associated Press. BALTIMORE, November 13.—A new, simple mathematical solution of many involved calculations used by scientists and engineers by drawing a triangle and lines within it was re- ported today before the American In- stitute of Chemical Engineers. Dr. J. C. Elgin of Princeton Univer- sity declared that the method would give quick, accurate answers to prob- lems over which industrial workers have formerly labored with pencils | and slide rules for hours. As used in solving problems con- nected with the process of “leaching,” or washing, substances in the chemical | industry the method calls for using the three points of a triangle to rep- resent, respectively, the solvent, such as. an acid; the insoluble solid sub- stance, such as crystals, and the solute, or material which is dissolved. Any point along the lines between | the three corners of such a triangle | represents the percentage of the ma- terials at the two corners it connects and any point inside the triangle rep- resents the percentages of the three materials at the corners, Dr. Elgin ex- | plained. The data given in the problem to be solved are located as points on the lines of the triangle; other lines are then drawn from these points and their intersections give an immediate answer by simple inspection, he de- clared. Joseph P. Creagh of South Charles- ton, W. Va.; Joseph H. Koffolt and James R. Withrow of Ohio State Uni- versity, Columbus, Okio, and A. C. Pieldner of the Bureau of Mines,, Washington, D. C., presented & group paper on a new advance in the re- covery of potash, a valuable constitu- ent of fertilizer and explosives, from American resources. The work was declared by chemical engineers to be a further step toward the dependence of the United States on its own natural resources should other countries of the world continue their trend toward economic na- tionalism. The opposite course, it was pointed out, is the tendency toward freer world trade as embodied in the re- ciprocal tariff agreements now being promoted by the United States to en- courage mutual intercourse between | nations.
