Abstract
THE story of the dyestuffs industry has often been told, at least in part. Few accounts have been more vivid than that given by Mr. C. J. T. Cronshaw, managing director of the Dyestuffs Group, Imperial Chemical Industries, Ltd., in his Jubilee Memorial Lecture of the Society of Chemical Industry. No such glimpse of the industry from inside has been vouchsafed us since Mr. James Morton gave us the story of Caledon Jade Green and later of Caledon Brown. Mr. Cronshaw's lecture, however, was far more than mere recapitulation. He succeeded not merely in revealing some of the difficulties and problems which the industry presents to those engaged in it, but also its ever-changing aspects and its intricate and intimate relations with other industries.
