CLOSING
Down OF The Camp Factory
Thursday Night
And No More Glass viii Be
Made Until September

The Camp Glass plant closed down
at midnight and no more glass will be
made until September. The reason
for closing down of the plant was gi.
en- out by the officials of the plant as
follows The men were under con-
tract for making so much glass per
pot and the members of the firm
thought that the employees of the
plant have not been carrying out
their part of the contract, in that
they have not been producing the re-
quired amount Of glass. 1t Is stated
by the company that the employees
were notified that they must produce
the required amount and that this they
refused to do and accordingly the offic-
ials closed down the plant at midnight
The statement was given at the office
of the Camp Glass factory Friday that
the plant would not open until some
time in September.
