The businesses that make relatively mature and commodity-like products will be threatened by the invasion of products of that same type from newly-industrialized nations of the world - Korea, Mexico, Brazil, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Singapore.

There is some controversy that existing drug products are well-controlled regarding prices, but that such is not the case with newly introduced pharmaceuticals.

Louis McCabe, now heading its environmental programs, urged a federal air pollution program that went beyond research to control. 

A national dye shortage led to initiation of an intensive research program on dye intermediates in 1916. This program was a natural extension of Du Font s experience with coal-tar crudes in compounding high explosives. Moving rapidly, the company built its first dye plant in Deepwater, New Jersey. The first fast vat dyes were produced in 1919, and by 1923 the plant was a major producer in America s newly established dyestuffs industry.
