REPORTS OF REMOVAL OF

GLASS INSULATOR PLANT


Asserted to Be Incorrect by Officials of Company

Conference with Local Men Today


Reports that the California Glass In­sulator company of Long Beach has closed a deal for the purchase of land at Torrance, to which site the plant on West Anaheim will be removed, are said to be incorrect. Torrance people, it is said, have made the glass works company a tempting offer of ground on which to locate, but this offer has not been accepted as yet.

On the other hand, Long Beach peo­ple who do not want to see this indus­try removed from our harbor district will endeavor to induce the company not to give up the Anaheim road loca­tion. Officers of the company, who vis­ited Long Beach today on business con­nected with the glass works, were con­ferred with on this matter by local men.

The factory is now shut down, so far as the manufacture of products is con­cerned, but the shipping of manufac­tured products from the plant is going on. Local business men believe there is a big future for the project and con­sider it worth loyal support.
