700 J. I. CRABTREE AND H. D. RUSSELL [J. S. M. P. E. is to be used intermittently, it should not be revived until ready for use. With regard to the relative merits of chrome alum as against potassium alum fixing baths, if revival of a potassium alum bath is possible it is to be preferred. If revival with acid is not possible a chrome alum bath has a longer hardening life and has a much less tendency to deposit a sludge with use. Chrome alum baths are particularly suitable for high temperature work because of their powerful tanning action. ACKNOWLEDGMENT The authors wish to acknowledge their indebtedness to H. A. Hartt, J. F. Ross, T. Gaski, L. E. Muehler, and F. B. Stratton who assisted in the experimental work. REFERENCES 1 CRABTREE, J. I., AND HARTT, H. A.: "Some Properties of Fixing Baths," Trans. Soc. Mot. Pict.
