GLASS PRICES
TO TAKE JUMP
As a Result Of the High Cost
OF Production is the
Prediction.

P1TTSBuRG. Pa, Dec. 1S-The
Glassworker says: The prediction Is
made that window glass prices are to
take a jump ere long.
Just when the advance will be de-
clared Is unannounced but some of
the men closest in touch with the
situation say they would not be sur
prised II the present list Is boosted
In about month from now.
Window glass conditions seem to
justify such a move II they ever did
so. From the moment the fire
opened last month all the hand and
machine plants OF the country have
been rushing along at top speed try
ing to produce enough glass to fill
the immense accumulation OF orders,
with only moderate success. Stocks
In this country were never SO low as
at the present moment. and while in
some quarters a slight lessening OF
business is reported, from others
comes word that the stream OF or
ders for glass is still flowing in.
The approach OF the iventory sea-
son Is given as the cause for whatever
little falling off has taken place dur
Ing the last week.
Jobbers. with their customary
timidlty, discount most Of the bullish
tendency, and seem averse to even
consider increasing their prices to
their customers. They claim that
present prices cannot prevail very
much longer. 1t is whispered on
good authority that manufacturers
knowing how the jobbers feel in this
propose now to move entirely inde-
pendently Of them. and get moro
money for their glass.
The claim, and It Is good one, is
made that the cost of production has
greatly advanced since the beginning
Of the war, the added expense in
Guiding labor and many materials
necessary to glass manufacture. II
the tobbers choose to pay more for
their glass and sell at present rates.
they will be at perfect liberty, Of
course, to do so.
