H a u& It is a national necessity that New Zealand should have its own Glass Works, because so many Dominion industries are dependent on supplies of glass containers at reasonable rates for their products. These the proposed Company will make and supply with advantage to everybody concerned. WvffWv ie k as * s glass manufacture is s a u Lsiej g oo j supply of " silicate sand.” Close to the site of the proposed works there is an almost inexhaustible supply of the finest “ silicate sand ” in New Zealand, if not in the world ; the Government Analyst’s report showing it to be 98.26 per cent, pure silica. The serious loss (estimated to be over 25 per cent.) with every shipment of glassware from Overseas increases costs almost to strangling point. Th'rdlv ie ompany Wl 'H 1 36 equipped with new machinery, of latest pattern, which means that the quality of local products will be better than that of imported glassware. This particularly applies to bottles. It must be noted that the Company will instal an ‘‘Owens ” machine among others. This question of new plant is an important one, as it will put the New Zealand Glass Works in a most advantageous position to successfully compete with manufacturers outside the Dominion. Hie Company is essentially a safe investment. The money is to be spent on plant, land and buildings. Ihe market for its products is ready and waiting. The annual imports of glassware into the Dominion in 1920 totalled £604,975. Empty bottles alone amounted to £125,163 ; plain glass jars, £23,523 ; crown, sheet, and common window glass, £231,865 —all these are within the scope of the New Zealand Glass Works. , What is being done in Australia can bp done iJlJClhlij/ j n |\i ew Zealand, where the conditions of labour, etc., are similar. According to the “ Australian Investment Digest” (page 221, August, 1921), the Australian Glass Manufacturers Ltd. added £74,548 to reserves over a period of five years’ trading. Of this amount £39,429 was capitalised in June, 1920, when one share for every seven held was given to the shareholders. In addition to this, a 10 per cent, dividend was paid for the year ending March, 1921. fJ? The initial plant, it is estimated, will proHz cluce £ 1,000 worth of bottles a week at a cost of £587 7s. 2d. This leaves a weekly profit of £412 12s. 10d. Working for eleven months a year, the annual net profit, after allowing for overhaul, 33 £ per cent, for depreciation, overhead expenses, etc., is £12,878 16s. Ihese figures are based on actual costs of March, 1920. The completed works will produce four times this amount. &l<rh*hfv ie k ac^ng manufacturers using bottles and b rewers j iave agreed to purchase their supplies from the Company, conditions being equal, or nearly equal, in preference to going outside the Dominion for supplies. It is estimated that this will, with the initial plant, place the Company on a profitable basis of manufacturing in six months,, venti it ii W 11; wa VA f, ..: t l * \Mi H » I (a M k; l>. r T ® c; LI; I, £!
