Many outstanding men in the field of science have been asked to appraise the Dr. George Wash, ington Carver s work and classify him as ipsdentist. ~DrrCarver is the minds of many, one of the greatest students in Agricultural Chemistry in America. The Atr?.American sent a quesj tionnaite to the professors - o f science in'the leading Negro colleges asking theni to rate Dr. .Carver as a scientist. Ten returns were received and eight out of ten praise hifn as an outstand.ing Agricultural Chemist, while twn out of the-ten reports recetv.' ed were unable to praise his work scientifically. because as one of them puts it,? he hatf seen no research of Dr. Carver's reported in! scientific journals.
