The enormous growth of the plate

strikingly illustrated by the request
that manufacturers are about to make
the treasury department relative TO the
restrictive provisions Of the contract
labor law. 1t is claimed by these manu-
facturers that fully 1900 skilled work.

year to equip and run establishments
now nearing completion, and that these
laborers must be brought from Europe
as they can not be obtained here. Or
dinarily a protected industry makes
slow and steady growth, educating new
workmen as they are needed. Tho
plate glass industry, however, in two
years time has increased so rapidly that
glaciers glass is no longer imported,
