- Finds Glass Mountain!

Ed Levy's Discovery

Lowers Israel's Costs

There's a big plate glass ex-
hibit at the Israel Trade Show,
June 18-21, at the Sheraton T
Cadillac, and behind it is a
story in which two Detroiters
figure.
When Ed C. Levy, who stor-
ages and trucks all the glass
sand for the Ford plant, was
in Israel in 1950, they were im-
porting glass sand from Bel-
gium at $16.50 a cubic yard.
One morning Levy and thea-
tre-owner Dick Sloan took an
auto ride on the new highway
south from Biblical Beersheba
into the Negeb desert. Ten
miles down the road, Levy no-
ticed a great dune of intensely
white sand, 150 ft. high, 2 miles
long, 1/2 mile wide. It looked
familier. Levy stopped the car
and with his straw hat, scoop 7
ed a few hatfuls of sand on the
floor of the car.
After tests at Israel's famed
Weizmann Institute of Science,
Levy learned his discovery was
a superior grade of glass sand.
He had found a real glass
mountain! Thanks to Levy's
discovery, the cost of the basic
materials came down from
$16.50 to $:62 and plate glass
promises to become one of Is-
rael's leading export dollar-
earners. It's wonderfully flex-.
ible glass, Levy says, outstand-
ing in hurricane resistance and
for that reason much in de-
mand by Florida's big jalousie-
window industry.

Weston Reports
Discovery to AMA

Dr. Bernard West; local phys-
ician who appeared on the pro-
gram of the American Medical
Association which met this week
in Chicago, delivered a paper on
a new instrument and technique
used in cases of nasal bleeding.
The new development, Dr.
Weston states, is simple to learn
with a mini-
mum of .in-
struction, c a n
be carried out
with less pa-
tient discom-
fort, eliminates
the. need f o r
general anes-
thetic and is
less likely to
injure internal Dr. Weston
structures of the nose,
The method is used, he said,
in cases where a pack is intro-
duced into the space behind the
nose and above the palate to
stop nasal hemorrhage. A tape
attached to the pack extends
from the mouth to remove the
pack when b 1 e e,d i n g has
stopped.
Occasionally, the . tape will
slip or break when the physi-
cian attempts to remove the
pack, and he is faced with a
difficult situation in removing
it. -
The new method, Dr. Weston
stated, makes locating the pack
and its removal quite simple
and, at the same time, elimi-
nates the need for anesthesia.
