to Terms.
(By Associated PressD

PITTSBURG. Aug. 25.- The pros
pective contest between window glass
workers and manufacturers is likely
to be nipped in the bud by a settle

workers and the Chambers Glass Com

Glass Company, South Side, Pittsburg.
Manufacturers wanted to cut wages 80
per cent. and workers refused to ac-
cept mere than n Is per cent. cut The
situation at the close of the conference
pointed strongly to a complete shut
down Of the window glass plants Of
the United States.
Mr.. Chambers and his workmen have
agreed on a 20 per cent. reduction for
blowers. natteners and cutters, and a
10 Der cent, advance for gatherers. The
Chambers and Phillips factories Will
blow In on Sept. |. Other plants will
