Glass Workers and Manufac-
turers Are Co-operat-
J. ing Nicely.

PITTSBURG. Pa, Sept. 1O-The
Commoner and Glassworker says a
further Improvement is noted in
window glass market conditions, de-
mand having been accelerated to a
considerable extent during the last
week owing to the developments that
have taken place since the wage
2greemeht FOR the blast of 1910
1911 was entered into at Detroit by
the manufacturers AMI workers
representatives.
The belief appears to be very gem
eral throughout the trade that the
present is a good time TO replenish
depleted stocks and the tone of the
market has been materially strength
ened as result and window glass
is now moving more freely than for
some time past.
Another addition has been made to
the list of factories out of commits
sion. the Banner Window Glass Com
pany's tank plant having been closed
down recently after the shutdown
question was favorably considered
at a meeting of the stockholders,
This leaves the field practically clear
as far as the hand factories are con-
cerned, the only one reported in OPP
Grafton at the present time being the
tank at Punxsutawney, Pa, while
very few machine tanks are now
making glass.
The shut down this season has been
more general than for many years
and, this being the case. 1t should
improve conditions for the next blast
and tend to make the market more
stable throughout the coming sea-
sons run.
Strenuous efforts have been re-
aiired in order to bring about this
state Of attaIrs, The task really.
