U.S. Glass hopes to begin hiring this spring at the soon-to-be-restarted Fenton Art Glass factory in Williamstown. "We deferred until hopefully, now, April, when we will begin a process of opening the factory," said Gene Bem, founder and CEO of U.S.

The West Virginia Jobs Investment Trust, the state's venture capital firm, has invested $100,000 in the Fenton Group, in hopes of reviving production at the historic 107-year-old Fenton Art Glass plant in Williamstown.
