Green; president of the United Hat- | ters, before the convention of the Cloth Cap, Hat & Millinery Workers’ International Union, being held in Beethoven Hall on East 5th Street. Green was introduced by the chair- tan, Max Zaritzky, with effusive compliments and offered the “key to the hearts” of the capmakers and mil- liners. Great emphasis was laid puon the close cooperation of the two unions, and the closer relation to come. But while Green hopes for amalga- mation of the two unions “in the fu- ture,” he believes it best at present to have the United Haters stay in “our Bible House, and you in your Beethoven Hall; and we will keep on cooperating as we have for the past two years.” Boasts of Left Gain. * Another speaker at yesterday's ses- sion, was Julius Hochman who came representing the International Ladies’ Garment Workers’ Union. He began by bragging about the “forty hour week which we have gained,” and talked about how far in advance of the rest of world labor this gain is. Us- | ually the Communists are denounced by the right wing clique for having prolonged the strike until the forty hour week was won; but Hochman never mentioned that the Commun- ists had anything to do with’ it. Instead, he launched into the cus- tomary tirade against all Commun- ists, past, present and future. The very word seemed to set him off into | an automatic denunciation of every- | thing connected with Communism, in- cluding The DAILY WORKER from which he quoted an editorial. Some of the delegates ‘remarked at the change in Hochman’s style of speech. Formerly he talked always of sun- shine and flowers and the springtime —which was scarcely more interest- ing to the workers than his latest line. The chief debate at the convention | yesterday centered around a resolu- tion calling for denunciation of the Citizens Military Training Camp. The resolutions committee reported no cb- jections to the “Whereas” sections; but as delegate I. Feingold pointeg out: “We differ as usual when it comes to taking some action instead of just ‘resolving’.” The opposition in connection with this resolution was an opposition to instrueting the delegates to the next convention of the American Federa- tion of Labor to introduce a measure Opposing the camps. “In Principle.” “We are unanimously opposed to the C. M. T. C. in principle, but——” said the resolution’ committee, and the convention. It was decided to leave it to the diseretion of the delegates whether they should introduce such a resolu- tion at the A. F. of L. conyention. If the A. F. of L. was not going to take such a stand, and if the capmakers’ delegates would be the only ones op- posing the camps and would*thus be conspicuous and ridiculous because of their opposition, they were not to be forced to do it, 3 Speakers pointed out the fact that RATIONAL LIVING A RADICAL HEALTH MONTHLY B.

The first half of the game passed with the right half of the Bronx alty kick.” During the second half the Bronx Sports scored a goal from a “corner”; five minutes iater the right out of the Bronx Workers scored ~ second goal, which was ac- companied by a long applause and cheers. | Two minutes before the end of the game the Bronx Sports seored a sec-| ond goal, which was illegal accord-| ing to the rules.
