Condition of Affairs in That Trade in the

Washington. March Is. - Dennis a.
lIayes. of Philadelphia, president of the
Glass Bottle Blowers Association of
America was before the Industrial COM
mission yesterday. Hayes stated that
many foreign bottle blowers were still
imported under contract. proving them
selves able to eVade the immigration
laws. He detailed at length the effort
to secure uniform cash payments and
abolish company stores. These stores
We're described as very perniciOus. The
product Of the average glass operative
of today is double that Of the years
ago. said Hayes. buJ this was ATTAINED
as the result of d terrible expenditure Of
energy. The glass liower of this time
was seldom able f. continue his ef-
forts beyond the age Of 45.
There had been a pronounced falling
off in wages in the Tast few years. and
especially since the panic of 1893 when
there was a reduction Of the scale
amounting to Il per cent. There was a
promise to restore tie old scale as soon
as the conditions were improved. But
he said the panic Is passed ard new
tariff has been enac. ed. still the condi-
tions are such that he restora ton has
not taken place" This failure was due
to the employment n non-Union labor
erS by many manufacturers Hayes
denounced conTany tenement houses
