Scope of census.-Census statistics of manufactures are compiled primarily for thedº. of showing the absolute and relative magnitude of the growth or decline. Incidentally, the effort is made to present data throwing light upon character of ownership, size of establishments, and similar subjects... When use is made of the statistics for these #. it is imperative that due attention should be given to their imitations, particularly in connection with any attempt to derive from them figures purporting to show average wages, cost of produc- tion, or profits. The census did not cover establishments which were idle during the entire year or whose products were valued at less than $500, or the manufacturing done in educational, eleemosynary, and penal institutions. - Period covered.—The returns relate to the calendar year 1914, or the business year which corresponded most nearly to that calendar year, and cover a year's operations, except for establishments which began or discontinuéd business during the year. The establishment. -As a rule, the term “establishment” repre- sents a single plan; Grfactory, but in Some cases it represents two or more plants which were operated under a common ownership or for which one set of books of account was kept. . If, however, the i. constituting an establishment as thus defined were not all ocated within the same city or state, separate reports were secured in order that the figures for each plant might be included in the statistics for the city or state in which it was located. Influence of increased prices.—In comparing figures for cost of materials, value of products, and value added by manufacture in 1914 and 1909 with the corresponding figures for earlier censuses, account should be taken of the general increase in the prices of com- modities during recent years. To the extent to which this factor has been influential the figures fail to afford an exact measure of the increase in the volume of business. Persons engaged in the industry.—The following general classes of persons engaged in the industry distinguished: (1) Proprietors and firm members, (2) salaried officers of corporations, (3) superin- tendents and managers, § clerks (including other subordinate salaried employees), and (5) wage earners. In the reports for the censuses of 1904 and 1899 these five classes were shown according to the three main groups: (1) Proprietors and firm members, (2) salaried officials, clerks, etc., and (3) wage earners. In compara- tive tables covering the census of 1904 it is of course necessary to group the figures according to the classification that was employed at the earlier censuses. The number of persons engaged in the industry, distributed by sex, and, in the case of wage earners, also by age (whether under 16 or 16 and over), was reported for a single representative day. The 15th of December was selected as representing for most estab- lishments normal conditions of employment, but where this date was not a representative day an earlier date was chosen. In the case of employees other than wage earners the number thus reported for the representative date has been treated as equivalent to the average for the year, since the number of employees of this class does not ordinarily vary much from month to month. In the case of wage earners the average has been obtained in the manner explained in the next paragraph. In addition to the more detailed report by sex and age of the number of wage earners on the representative date, a report was obtained of the number employed on the 15th of each month, without distinction of sex or age. From these figures the average number of wage earners for the year has been calculated by dividing the sum of the numbers reported for the several months by 12. The average thus obtained approximates the number of wage earn- ers that would be jº. to perform the work done if all were constantly employed during the entire year. Accordingly, the im- portance of the industry as an employer of labor is believed to be more accurately measured by this average than by the number employed at any one time or on a given day. n order to determine as nearly as possible the sex and age dis- tribution of the average number of wage earners for the industry as a whole, the per cent distribution by Sex and age of the wage earners reported for December 15, or the nearest representative day, has been calculated from the actual number reported for that date, the percentages thus obtained have been applied to the average number of wage earners for the year in the industry to determine the average number of men, women, and children employed. Salaries and wages.—Under these heads are given the total pay- ments during the year for salaries and wages, respectively. The Census Bureau has not undertaken to calculate the average annual earnings of either salaried employees or wage earners. Such aver- ages would possess little real value, because they would be based on the earnings of employees of both sexes, of all ages, and of widely varying degrees of skill. Furthermore, so far as wage earners are concerned, it would be impossible to calculate accurately even So (2) fferent branches of industry covered and their \ simple an average as this, since the number of wage earners fluctu- ates from month to month. The Census Bureau's figures for wage. earners, as already explained, are averages based on the number employed on the 15th of each month and represent the ºil mate number who would be required to perform the work if all were continuously employed during the year, whereas the actual number to whom the total wages were paid would be larger. Prevailing hours of labor.—No attempt was made to ascertain the number of wage earners working a given number of hours per week. The inquiry called merely for the prevailing practice followed in each establishment. e lishment from one part of the year to another were disregarded, and no attention was paid to the fact that a limited number of wage earners might have hours differing from those of the majority. All the wage earners of each establishment are therefore counted in the class within which the establishment itself falls. In most establishments, however, all or practically all the wage earners work the same number of hours, so that the figures give a substan- tially correct representation of the hours of labor. Capital.—The instructions on the schedule for securing data relating to capital were as follows: The answer should show the total amount of capital, both owned and borrowed On the last day of the businessyear reported. All theitems offixed and live capital may be taken at the amounts carried on the books. If land or buildings are rented that fact should be stated and no value given. . If a part of the land or buildings is owned, the remainder being rented, that fact should be so stated and only the value of the owned property given. ionotinclude securities and ioans represent- ing investments in other enterprises. These instructions were identical with those employed at the census of 1909. The data compiled in respect to capital, however, at both censuses, as well as at all preceding censuses of manufactures, have been so defective as to be of little value except as indicating very general conditions. . In fact, it has been repeatedly recom- mended by the census authorities that this inquiry be omitted from the schedule. While there are some establishments whose account- ing systems are such that an accurate return for capital could be made, this is not true of the great majority, and the figures therefore do not show the actual amount of capital invested. Materials.-The statistics as to cost of materials relate to the materials used during the year, which may be more or less than the materials purchased during the year. The term “materials” covers fuel, rent of power and heat, mill supplies, and containers, as well as materials which form a constituent part of the product. Rent and taxes.—The taxes include internal revenue, corpora- tion income tax, and state, county, and local taxes. In some instances the amount of the corporation tax for 1914 had not been ascertained when the report was prepared and the amount paid for 1913 was given. * Value of products.-The amounts given under this heading repre- sent the selling value or price at the factory of all products manu- factured during the year, which may differ from the value of the products sold. Value added by manufacture.—The value of products is not a satisfactory measure of either the absolute or the relative importance of a given industry, because only a part of this value is actually created by the manufacturing processes carried on in the industry itself. . Another part, and often by far the larger one, represents the value of the materials used. For many purposes, therefore, the best measure of the importance of an industry is the value created #!". manufacturing operations carried on within the industry. This value is calculated by deducting the cost of the materials used from the value of the products. The figure thus obtained is termed in the census reports “value added by manufacture.” Cost of manufacture and profits.-The census data do not show the entire cost of manufacture, and consequently can not be used for the calculation of profits. No account has been taken of interest or depreciation, rent of offices and buildings other than factory or works, insurance, ordinary repairs, advertising, and other Sundry expenses. Primary horsepower.—This item represents the total primary power generated by the manufacturing establishments plus the amount of power, B.º. electric, rented from other concerns. . It does not cover the power of electric motors taking their current from dynamos driven by primary power machines operated by the same establishment, because the inclusion of such power would ob- viously result in duplication. The figures for primary horsepower represent the rated capacity of the engines, motors, etc., and not the amount of power in actual daily use, since in most cases an engine or motor is not required to deliver continuously its full rated horsepower. Fuel.-Statistics of the quantity of fuel used are shown only for anthracite and bituminous coal, coke, oil, and gas. They relate to the quantity used during the year, which may be moré or less than the quantity purchased. As only the principal varieties of fuel are shown, no comparison can be made with the total cost of all fuel.

By FRANK ADAMs. GENERAL STATISTICS. Scope of the industry.—This industry embraces all establishments engaged in the manufacture of glass from raw materials, but does not include those en- gaged primarily in glass beveling, bending sheet glass, engraving glass, making glass labels, staining and ornamenting glass, or making glassware from pur- It does, however, cover the re- working of glass when done by the establishment in which the glass is manufactured. The establishments in this industry are engaged in the manufacture of (1) building glass, which includes window glass, plate glass, and all varieties of cast and rolled glass; (2) pressed and blown glass, such as tableware; jelly glasses; tumblers; goblets; bar goods; lamps; chimneys; lantern globes; shades, globes, and other gas and electric goods; opal ware; and cut glass; and (3) bottles, jars, demijohns, etc. Comparison with earlier censuses.—Statistics for the glass industry in the United States appeared in the report of the census of manufactures taken in 1810, and have been included in the reports of all subsequent censuses. They show a consistent development, keeping pace with the increasing demand for glass products. At the census of 1849, 94 establishments were reported as manufacturing glass. These estab- lishments employed an average of 5,668 wage earners and manufactured products valued at $4,640,676. In 1859 there were 112 establishments with 9,016 wage earners and products valued at $8,775,155. Table 1 summarizes the statistics of establish- ments engaged in the manufacture of glass for each census from 1869 to 1914, and gives percentages of increase. . Table 1 NUMBER OR AMOUNT.

While there was a decrease of 51 in the number of glass factories reported for 1914 as compared with the number for 1904, the other items given in the table show that since 1899 there has been a decided increase in the magnitude of the industry. During the 15 years the capital invested and the value of the prod- ucts considerably more than doubled, the number of persons engaged in the industry increased by 42.6 per cent, and the wages and salaries paid by 84.8 per cent. Summary, by states.—Table 2 summarizes the more important statistics of the industry, by states, the states being arranged according to the value of prod- ucts reported for 1914. Some of the states (California, Massachusetts, Michigan, and Wisconsin) for which data can not be shown separately without disclosing the operations of individual establishments, ranked higher than some of those named in the table. 82198°–17 8 Figures not strictly comparable. * Exclusive of internal revenue. The bulk of the glass manufactured in the United States is made in the four adjoining states of Penn- sylvania, Ohio, Indiana, and West Virginia. These states reported for 1914, 70.7 per cent of the estab- lishments, 71 per cent of the wage earners, and 71.9 per cent of the value of products. Pennsylvania was the most important state in the industry, producing 32.3 per cent of all the glass manufactured in the United States in 1914. Ohio ranked second and Indiana third, followed closely by West Virginia. Oklahoma made a pronounced gain during the period 1909 to 1914, but comparative figures can not be shown without disclosing the operations of individual establishments.

With the exceptions of Oklahoma, Kansas, and Virginia, the states held the same or nearly the same rank in value of prod- ucts in 1914 as in 1909. Illinois displaced New Jersey for fifth position and Missouri displaced Kansas for eighth, the latter state dropping to fourteenth to the decrease in the natural-gas supply in that place.

The percentage of increase, 23.5, shown for clerks and other subordinate salaried employees for the five- year period 1909–1914 is nearly three times as great as that for wage earners, 8.1. During this period the number of wage earners under 16 years of age decreased greatly, the decrease being much more pronounced for males than for females. The latter, however, repre- sented less than one-sixth of the total wage earners under 16 in 1914. The female wage earners, both women and children, are employed chiefly in the packing departments. Wage earners employed, by months.-The following table gives for the industry the total number of wage earners employed on the 15th of each month, or the nearest representative day, for 1914 and 1909, and the average number employed during each month in 1904, together with the percentage which the number re- ported for each month forms of the greatest number reported for any month. On the basis of number of wage earners employed, the industry shows its greatest activity during the late fall, winter, and spring months. In 1914 the maximum employment was in March; in 1909, in December; and in 1904, in April. August was the month of minimum employment in 1914, and July in 1909 and 1904. The degree of fluctuation in employment has been steadily decreasing, as will be seen by a comparison of the per- centages which the minimum months represented of the maximum—38 in 1904, 49.3 in 1909, and 57.7 in 1914.

Table 6 gives the total average number of wage earners employed during 1914, together with the total number employed on the 15th of each month, or the nearest representative day, for each state in which the average number of wage earners was 500 or more in 1914. January was the month of maximum employment in Illinois; February in Indiana, Maryland, and New York; March in New Jersey and Pennsylvania; April in California, Missouri, Ohio, Oklahoma, and Vir- ginia; and May in West Virginia. In Virginia and California the number of wage earners employed in August formed only 10 per cent and 19.2 per cent, respectively, of the number employed in April.

The number employed in each establishment was classified as a total, even though a few employees worked a greater or smaller number of hours. In 1914, 69.2 per cent of the wage earners employed in the industry were in establishments where the pre- vailing hours were 54 or fewer per week, as compared with 53.2 per cent in 1909. Of the several groups shown in Table 7, the largest was made up of the wage earners in establishments where the prevailing hours were between 48 and 54 per week. The decided drift toward a shorter working day is shown by the fact that this group represented 37.5 per cent of the total in 1914, as against only 24.1 per cent in 1909. Over two-thirds—67.4 per cent— of the wage earners employed in the glass industry in Oklahoma were reported by establishments where the prevailing hours were 48 or under per week. In Mis- Souri 78 per cent were employed in establishments in the 60-hours-a-week class. In Illinois and New York, the largest numbers were in the class “between 54 and 60.” For all the other states, the table shows the largest numbers in the class “between 48 and 54.” For 1914 there were reported 1,738 wage earners, or 2.3 per cent of the total, in establishments whose pre- vailing hours were over 72 per week.

The table shows clearly that the great bulk of the glass industry is conducted under corporate ownership. The output of individually-owned establishments shows a marked decrease for the five-year period, but that of establishments under “all other” forms of ownership increased greatly. Size of establishments.-The tendency of the indus- try to become concentrated in large establishments is indicated by the statistics given in Table 9. During the five-year period 1909–1914 a marked decrease took place in the number of establishments with products valued at less than $100,000, as well as in the number of wage earners and value of products reported by such establishments. These establish- ments reported 3.6 per cent of the total wage earners and 2.8 per cent of the total value of products for 1914, as compared with 7 per cent of the wage earners and 6.4 per cent of the value of products for 1909. The greatest increases appear for establishments with \ \, # * > -, * * - - - - º MANUFACTURE OF GLASS. 7 products valued at more than $1,000,000. In this group the number of establishments increased from 10 in 1909 to 23 in 1914, the number of wage earners increased by 89.8 per cent, and value of products by 143.7 per cent. The establishments having products valued at $100,000 but less than $1,000,000 consti- tute the leading class, but their relative importance diminished, while that of the establishments with products valued at $1,000,000 and over increased. During the period 1909–1914 the value of products of the former group increased by 13.5 per cent, whereas that of the latter increased by 143.7 per cent; and during the same period the proportion which the value of products of the former group formed of the total decreased from 75.5 per cent to 64.1 per cent, whereas the corresponding proportion for the latter group increased from 18.1 per cent to 33.1 per Cent. Table 10 shows the size of establishments in 1914 and 1909, as measured by the number of wage earners employed, for the industry as a whole and the 12 leading states.

Of the 348 establishments reported for the industry in 1914, 6.3 per cent employed from 1 to 20 wage earners each, 29.6 per cent from 21 to 100, 55.7 per cent from 101 to 500, and 8.3 per cent over 500. Six establishments employed over 1,000 wage earners each. Of the total number of wage earners, four- tenths of 1 per cent were reported by establishments employing from 1 to 20; 8.9 per cent by establish- ments employing from 21 to 100; 58.7 per cent by establishments employing from 101 to 500; and 32 per cent by establishments employing over 500. From 1909 to 1914 there was a decrease in the num- ber of establishments and wage earners in each of the groups employing not more than 100 wage earners, and an increase in each of those having more than 100 wage earners, with the single exception of the group of establishments reporting over 1,000. Of the six establishments employing over 1,000 wage earners in 1914 three were located in Pennsylvania and one each in Illinois, Missouri, and New Jersey. Engines and power.—Table 11 shows, for 1914, 1909, and 1904, for the industry, the number and horsepower of engines or motors employed in generating power (including electric motors operated by purchased current). It also shows separately the number and horsepower of electric motors operated by current generated in the establishments reporting. The amount of power used in the glass industry was first reported for 1869. The total horsepower re- ported for that year was 1,857—equal to only a little more than 1 per cent of the power reported for 1914. Nearly two-thirds of the power used in the industry in 1914 was generated by steam, but the proportion which this class of power forms of the total has de- creased materially from census to census, having fallen from 84.1 per cent in 1904 to 64.4 per cent in 1914. 8 - MANUFACTUREs.

During the decade the capacity of internal-com- bustion engines increased by 211.5 per cent and the pro- portion which the power of these engines formed of the total increased from 15.2 per cent to 26.6 per cent. The use of water power in the glass industry is insig- nificant. The amount of rented electric power in use, although still comparatively small, increased from 583 horsepower in 1904 to 14,224 in 1914, and during the same period the proportion which this class of power formed of the total primary power increased from six-tenths of 1 per cent to 8.7 per cent. The power of electric motors operated by current generated in the same establishments represented 84.7 per cent of the total electric power in 1914, and during the decade 1904–1914 the increase in the power of such motors amounted to 386 per cent. It is noteworthy that 52.9 per cent, or more than half of the power generated in 1914—mainly by steam and internal-combustion engines—in the establishments in this industry was transformed into electric power before being used. Fuel.-Table 12 shows, for 1914, the quantity of each kind of fuel used, for which data were obtained, for the industry as a whole, and for 13 separate states. SPECIAL STATISTICS RELATING Products.--Table 13, on the following page, shows in detail the statistics of products manufactured in the glass industry in 1914, 1909, 1904, and 1899. Of the 348 establishments reported for 1914, 102 manufactured building glass; 107, pressed and blown glass; and 150, bottles and jars; and of the 363 estab- lishments reported for 1909, 104 produced building glass; 114, pressed and blown glass; and 166, bottles and jars. In 1914, 29.9 per cent of the total value of products represented building glass; 24.6 per cent, pressed and blown glass; 42.2 per cent, bottles and jars; and 3.3 per cent, other products. The corresponding propor- tions in 1909 were 28.6, 29.8, 39.1, and 2.6 per cent, respectively. The total value of building glass reported shows an increase of 40 per cent for the period 1909-1914 and * Less than one-tenth of 1 per cent. Gas, practically all of which is natural gas, was the most important class of fuel used. Of the total amount consumed, nearly one-half was reported by Pennsylvania; the second, third, fourth, and fifth largest amounts being reported by West Virginia, Ohio, Oklahoma, and Kansas, respectively. - Bitu- minous coal was next in importance. California was the only state using oil exclusively, and Kansas the only one using gas exclusively. - Table 12 COAL. An- Coke | Oil, in- Gas (1,000 thra. | Bitumi. (tons, Cináing|9.4: STATE.

The most important product in this class in 1914 was win- dow glass, whose value represented 47.5 per cent of the total for building glass. Window glass also occu- pied first place in this respect in 1904 and 1899, but plate glass led in 1909. During the five-year period the output of window glass increased by 49 per cent in value but by only 15.9 per cent in quantity. Pennsylvania produced over 193,000,000 square feet of window glass in 1914, or nearly one-half of the total for the United States. West Virginia was second with over 82,000,000 square feet, and Ohio third with over 52,000,000 square feet. Pennsylvania also ranked first in the output of obscured glass, plate glass, and rough wire glass, producing over half of the total for each class. Missouri ranked second in the production of these three classes. • ..., x- ...

In 1909, 42,639 gross of bottles and jars, valued at $90,490, and in 1904 glassware, valued at $9,663, were made as subsidiary products by establishments engaged primarily in other lines of manufacture. 2. Not reported separately. The total value of pressed and blown glass shows an increase of $8,323,132, or 37.9 per cent, for the decade 1904–1914, and of $2,880,845, or 10.5 per cent, for the five-year period 1909–1914. During both the ten-year and the five-year periods the increases in the production of jelly glasses, tumblers, and goblets were pronounced. The output of blown tumblers, stem ware, and bar goods has also shown a large increase since 1904. Of the three main classes of products, bottles and jars represented the greatest value at each of the four censuses covered by the table. During the decade 1904–1914 there was an increase of $18,327,665, or 54.5 per cent, in the value of this class of products, and for the five-year period 1909–1914, $15,940,395, or 44.3 per cent. - For the period 1909–1914 considerable increases were reported in the output of most of the products MANUFACTURE OF GLASS. 9 shown in the table, the only ones which show actual decreases being rough plate glass made for sale, “all other building glass,” and patent and proprietary medicine bottles and jars. Few of the glass plants make finished cut glass, the item “cut ware” representing principally the glass blanks, which have not been cut and polished but which are sold to establishments making a specialty of producing the finished ware. lishments are classed in the census reports under the head “glass, cutting, staining, and ornamenting.” “All other products” include a number of unclassi- fied articles, such as thermos bottles, thermometer and electric tubing, marbles, glass stoppers, nest eggs, etc. Table 14, on the following page, shows the value of each of the three classes of glass products, in the lead- ing states, for 1914, 1909, 1904, and 1899. For 1914 Pennsylvania reported 51.5 per cent of the total value of building glass, 37.1 per cent of the total value of pressed and blown glass, and 17.2 per cent of the total value of bottles and jars, ranking first in the first and second classes and second in the third class. West Virginia ranked second in value of building glass produced, and Ohio third, but in pressed and blown glass these states ranked third and second, respectively. Indiana ranked first in value of bottles and jars manufactured, followed by Penn- sylvania, Ohio, New Jersey, and Illinois. Of the 102 plants that manufactured building glass in 1914, 64 made window glass, 21 of which were located in West Virginia, 20 in Pennsylvania, 9 in Ohio, 4 each in Kansas and Oklahoma, 2 each in Indiana and Texas, and 1 each in Louisiana and Missouri; 20 made obscured glass, including cathedral and skylight, 6 of which were in Pennsylvania, 5 in West Virginia, 3 in Indiana, 2 each in Illinois and Missouri, and 1 each in New York and Ohio; 19 made plate glass, 11 of which were in Pennsylvania, 3 in Missouri, and 1 each in Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Ohio, and West Virginia; and 7 made wire glass, 4 of which were in Pennsylvania and 1 each in Illinois, Missouri, and West Virginia. Pennsylvania with 33 establishments, Ohio with 15, and West Virginia with 26, in the order named, were the leading states in value of pressed and blown glass produced in 1914. Named in the order of their im- portance, the leading states producing tableware were Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, and West Virginia; jelly glasses, tumblers, and goblets, West Virginia, Ohio, Indiana, and Pennsylvania; lamps, Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Indiana; lamp chimneys, Indiana, Pennsyl- vania, West Virginia, and Ohio; blown tumblers, stem ware, and bar goods, West Virginia, Penn- sylvania, and Ohio; and cut ware and decorated ware, West Virginia and Pennsylvania.

Of the 328 pot furnaces, with a capacity of 4,522 pots, operated in 1914, only 2 furnaces, with 36 pots, were used in making window glass; 14 furnaces, with 187 pots, in producing obscured glass; and 103 furnaces, with 1,928 pots, in making plate glass. Eighty-one continuous tanks, with a capacity of 1,444 rings, were operated in producing building glass. Of this number, 62 tanks, with 1,298 rings, were used in producing win- dow glass; 10 tanks, with 84 rings, in making obscured glass; 7 tanks, with 53 rings, in producing wire glass; and only 2 tanks, with 9 rings, in making plate glass. Although the schedule for 1914 did not call for the information separately, 26 establishments reported the operation of 106 tanks equipped with 331 automatic machines. - Imports and exports.--Table 16 shows the value of glass imported and exported during each of the fiscal years ended June 30, 1869, 1879, 1889, and 1899, and during each subsequent fiscal year to 1914, inclusive. This table brings out the fact that the exports of glass, as measured by value, have never equaled the imports. The nearest approach was in 1913, when the value of glass exported was equivalent to 64.1 per cent of that imported. The exports, however, show a much greater relative increase than the imports. The value of window glass imported decreased by 7.5 per cent between 1869 and 1914, and that of un- silvered polished plate glass imported increased during the same period by only 1.4 per cent. The demand for glass products in this country during the entire period covered by the table has been MANUFACTURE OF GLASS. 11 met mainly by the domestic industry, as will be seen by a comparison of the values of imports given in this table with the total values of products of the glass in- dustry, as given in Table 1. Moreover, the increase in the value of products of the domestic industry during this period—nearly 600 per cent—has been much greater relatively than the increase in the value of imports—a little more than 100 per cent. In 1869 the value of imports was equal to 21.1 per cent of the value of glass manufactured in this country, but the corresponding percentage for 1914 was only 6.7.
