3266.     ---------------.  [STEACIE, E. W. R., AND ELKIN, E. M.]  Catalysis by Fusions:  A Reply to the Paper by Adadurow and Didenko.  Jour. Am. Chem. Soc., vol. 58, 1936, pp. 691-692; Chem. Abs., vol. 30, 1936, p. 3306.

        Reply to the criticisms of Steacie and Elkin’s work (abs. 3264) by I. E. Adadurow and P. D. Didenko (abs. 2).  They are based partly on an incorrect interpretation of their own data and partly on an incorrect mechanism for the decomposition of MeOH.
