At a joint meeting of the executive boards of the Blockers Locai 42, and Local 43, several decisions were made which spell doom to attempts of Pres- ident Zaritsky and his cohorts to de- stroy the milliners organization, Vital Decisions The most important of these deci- sions was the one deciding that the boards of both locals 42 and 43 meet jointly in conducting -the struggle egainst Zaritsky. It was also decided that the office staffs of both locals function together on questions of. in- ter-local relations, In redempiion of the promise ten- dered by the Blockers Local 42 to the fighting local 43, that moral. and fi- nancial aid will be given in their fight to maintain the union, the executive board of the blockers union yesterday presented to the Local 43 executive board a check of $1,000. As has been a practice among the millinery workers, large picket lines turned out to patrol the shops which tried to assist Zaritsky by ordering their girls to disavow their member- ship in Local 43, and locking them out when they refused. The faithful (to the bosses and Zaritsky) police were also there “en masses.” No arrests were reported, however, at a late hour yesterday. * * * Excursion Tomorrow The members of the union now-at work gave “another example of devo- tion to their fellow members. Collee- tions in most shops are now in full swing for a fund to buy tickets for the girls on strike, in order that they ‘too will be able to go on the excursion to Camp Nitgadaiget. July 1.

THREE GRAFTERS ARE SENTENCED Tammany Henchmen ‘May Never Serve Three Bronx officials-of thé Tam- many Hall gireet cleaning department yesterday listened undisturbed “to the pronouncement of sentence upon them to Sing Sing prison by Bronx County Judge- Albert Cohn, confident that, as befits good Tammany grafters, they will never be made to serve their terms. The sentence followed their conviction in the exvected move by the Tammany Hall machine to’ cover p the real depth of the graft scan- fal in a “sacrifice” of aeveral rela- | tively minor officials. The Victims William J. Oswald, former district superintendent, was sentenced to serve from three to ten years; Wil- liam J. Lougheed, foreman of the Cromwell avenue garage, from one and a half to three years, and Ben- Stoeber, assistant foreman under 'ougheed, one to two years. Lougheed and Stoeber received the consideration of the court because they had pleaded guilty and’ appeared as prosecution witnesses against Os- wald and Charles A.
