Southeast of Dunkirk business district is one of the most interesting industries this area, tile Eastern Glass of Lam- t3here street; corporation is made up or a group of men with main offices in Chicago. These men are; F. F. Hodges, and son F.

Robert Hodges, Ray Schober, and Lee Erdman, the general manager of the local plant. Erdnjan, only 29 years' of age, moved here from Chicago to organize the plant. The old'Dunkirk Glass- works was taken over by this concern in June-of 1943, and started aotual production on July 6, 1943. At present there' -are about 80 persons on the pay roll. most common conceptio of glass is sand being melted form glass, but actually glass only.

60 per cent, sand, Mr. Erd man'said. The other aro 20 per cent of soda ash an the remaining 20 per cent is com posed of flourspar, uepheline, rii trate of soda, zinc and cryolite To color amber glass a sma. amount of soft coal is uned. TbJ sand is shipped here from Ohi and West Virginia.

The Day tank method, used this company, is one.of 33 differ ent methods of making, glass. Thi name is derived from the fact tha the furnaces are prepared tht night before so the sand is melted and ready for the day shift. The sand is weighed on the Cirs. floor and taken upstairs in wheelbarrows where the first step glass making begins. This sana mixture, is put in stoiie lined tanks.

The stones used in lining these tanks are-made of a special heat resisting clay 2 to 3 feet by 8 inches thick. Thi! furnaces reach a temperature of 2,500 degrees Fahrenheit to melt the sand to a taffy like consistency anu then allowed' to cook to a working temperature of 1,400 to 1,600 degrees. The furnaces are heated i fuel oil and the company uses 6,000 gallons a month. The molten glass is taken from the tanks with a thin stainless steel tube about 10 feet long with a 'ball on one end. This clay ball picks up a blob of the tflass which is dropped into a mold.

The blob is.cut from the clay ball with a pair of common' household scissors. This process is called gathering. The molds used are made Ironv both cast'iron and stainless steel and must be polished every hours. The next stop is. annealing the glass pieces in a furnace begin- 1 ning a temperature of 1000 degrees, and slowly being cooled to a temperature of 200 degrees.

This annealing procress takes about on and one half hours. The articles are then 'finished by hand grinding to smooth off alt rough edges, then packed in cartons ready for shipping. All of the actual giass making is under supervision of Wil- fre'd Joyce of 627 Washington avenue, jvho was with 'he Dunkiric Glass works and has been in the glass making industry all his life. Because of the extieme conditions the workers are required to leave their jobs every half hour format least one minute and every two hours they get a 15 minute rest period. Even'with large cooling fans directed on the workers the heat is almost unbearable, At present the concern is making glass reflectors and is the only company in the United States manufacturing this item.

These reflectors are' used in offices throughout this inner ON LOCAL LAW AT SPECIALJPNG A special meeting of the common council will be held at 5 o'clock this afternoon to take action on the proposed local law establishing the office of industrial com'missioner in the city government. The council has gone on record as realizing 'the need for such an officer to promote this city's industrial development and City Attorney Albert J. Foley was instructed to prepare the necessary local law. The one which will 'be submitted to the council provides for the appointment of a commissioner by the mayor subject to approval by the council. The appointee will hold office until Dec.

31, 1945, and thereafter the council will fix the term of office. Duties of the commissioner are also outlined in the law. No provision is made for the salary to be paid. Under the of an agreement reached some time ago, the city will pay the new I man's salary and the Chamber of Commerce will defray his office and travelling expenses.
