HERE'S how New York's Madison Square Garden looked the day 20.000 AFL men
and women jammed it to the rafters to voice their protest against the Taft-Hartley
slave labor bill. AFL Pres. William Green called for a "flood of letters and postcards,
wrtlen by you in your own handwriting" to oppose the measure. Outside, listening
over loudspeakers were another 20.000. Later 60,000 CIO workers held their own
parade. Have you written yours yet?
