CHEMISTS WHO MADE OUR WORLD BETTER
In keeping with the spirit of the Bicentennial of the United States of America, the American Institute of Chemists (AIC) has published a special July 1976, Bicentennial issue of THE CHEMIST magazine. It features the contributions to society made by forty-one AIC Chemical Pioneers.

Dear Dr. Hall:
Enclosed you will find your personal copy of the July CHEMIST, the "Chemical Pioneers" issue. The record of your labors and successes will be a source of inspiration to students, and of greater public esteem for the chemical profession. It was your great work and that of the other Chemical Pioneers, which gave us the initial idea.
Cordial best wishes,
Alex P. Mathers, Ph.D., FAIC President
