CdS provides another interesting development where S u l p h u r is importantly in the picture . . . a development that m a y have far-reaehing effects in the broad field of electronics.
Sulphur and its many derivatives, either directly or indirectly, have a part in the creation of count less products, adding to the strength of our econ omy. Our business is to produce Sulphur—molten as well as solid—and have it available in sufficient tonnages at several departure points to serve any plant in the United States or Canada. Supplement ing this basic policy," we are developing centralized distribution centers for quicker service.
