' These represented branches of the Peale Zion party, National Workers' Alliance, Amalgamated Clothing Workers of America, Furriers' Union and a number of other Jewish unions. Complete harmony reigned among these forces, although they were not long ago, at daggers' ends as far as Zionism was concerned. It showed clearly that since the British declara• lion the Zionist idea had pervaded even the most hostile forces. The dominant figure of the conven- tion was Joseph Schlossberg, general secretary of the Amalgamted Cloth- ing Workers of America. After air fig some of his grievances against the Poale Zion, he said that he is now in full accord with the objects which the congress ha. set out to achieve.
