the _Journal of the Society of Chemical Industry_ for 1914, p. 225. In
1916 Baekeland received the same medal, and the proceedings are reported
in the same _Journal_, v. 35, p. 285.
A comprehensive technical paper with bibliography on "Synthetic Resins"
by L.V. Redman appeared in the _Journal of Industrial and Engineering
Chemistry_, January, 1914. The controversy over patent rights may be
followed in the same _Journal_, v. 8 (1915), p. 1171, and v. 9 (1916),
p. 207. The "Effects of Heat on Celluloid" have been examined by the
Bureau of Standards, Washington (Technological Paper No. 98), abstract
in _Scientific American Supplement_, June 29, 1918.
For casein see Tague's article in Rogers' "Industrial Chemistry" (Van
Nostrand). See also Worden's "Nitrocellulose Industry" and "Technology
of the Cellulose Esters" (Van Nostrand); Hodgson's "Celluloid" and Cross

_Journal of American Leather Chemical Association._
The General Bakelite Company, New York, the Redmanol Products Company,
Chicago, the Condensite Company, Bloomfield, N.J., the Arlington
Company, New York (handling pyralin), give out advertising literature
regarding their respective products.
CHAPTER VIII
Sir William Tilden's "Chemical Discovery and Invention in the Twentieth
Century" (E.P. Dutton & Co.) contains a readable chapter on rubber with
references to his own discovery. The "Wonder Book of Rubber," issued by
the B.F. Goodrich Rubber Company, Akron, Ohio, gives an interesting
account of their industry. Iles: "Leading American Inventors" (Henry
Holt & Co.) contains a life of Goodyear, the discoverer of
vulcanization. Potts: "Chemistry of the Rubber Industry, 1912." The
Rubber Industry: Report of the International Rubber Congress, 1914.
