In the Window Glass Cities and
Towns for the Pres
ent Season.

PlTTSBURG, Pa. June 27-The Com
moner and Glassworker says:
Today marks the end of the blast in
a great many OF the hand operating win
dow glass plants. It has been given
out that several companies will keep
their factories On the producing list dur
ing the summer, but 1t is hardly likely
that the move will be attended with
glittering success in many cases. as the
weather conditions are far from favor
able as far as window glass making in
hand plants is concerned.
During the past few weeks whenever
the thermometer began to register In
the neighborhood of 30 degrees It was
noticeable that vncant places wera plen-
tiful in quite number of factories. At
a certain plant in Ohio where the man.
agement had announced that the factory
would remain in blast during the heated
term, they found themselves short of
eight or ten gatherers and blowers and
this was from two to three weeks before
the regular closing time.
The foregoing incident is but one of
several OF like nature and it goes to
show that those who attempt to operate
hand plants during July and Augu,t
must be prepared to fill places ad libitum
II they expect TO get anything lie salts
factory results. Besids. II must be TAX
en- into consideration very few care to
operate under present market conditions
unless they are assured of a regular
and at least normal. output of glass.
Unsatisfactory operations could not
be tolerated by any management, for
the margin is now so close that every
roller counts. For this reason 1t ap-
pears to be safe guess that compara-
lively few hand plants will be on the
list Of active producers when the blis-
tering days of July are ushered in.
