Abstract :
Plans for the 1923 Chemical Exposition which will open at the Grand Central Palace, New York, on September 17th and extend for one week, opening daily at noon and closing at 10:00 P. M. are about completed. Outside of the four hundred odd exhibits which are expected by the time the exhibition opens, two other features have been planned for this year. They are a moving picture program of industrial films to be shown each afternoon and evening in a special auditorium for the purpose, and an intensive course in the practical business side of chemical engineering for students in various universities all over the country. Upwards of 200 students have already enrolled for the course at the exposition. About thirty authorities in various fields of chemical engineering will discuss their specialties for the benefit of the students. Prof. W. T. Read of Yale University, is in general charge of the student course feature of the exposition this year.
