Abstract

IN the same sense as the nineteenth century was the mechanical age and witnessed the enormous development in productive capacity and social possibilities due to the extended use of machinery, so the twentieth century almost certainly will be known as the chemical age, in which the chief stimulus to human progress was given by the greatly increased application of science, and chiefly chemistry, to industry and other aspects of human activity. Thus it will come about, inevitably, that those countries which develop chemical industry to the greatest extent will be the commercial leaders in the hierarchy of nations, provided that the other essential factors of success, character and a concurrent development of the arts, are also present.
