Of Portsmouth,; first vice president,
w. II. Furlo~, Of Norfolk; secretary
treasurer John GriBooa, Of Newport
News; .sergeant1at-anns, James +.
O'Connor, of Portsmouth.
Several changes in the federaaons
constitution were approved, tha5nust
important being an enlargement OF
the executive board from eight TO
nine members. The president, first
vice president and secretary are ex
officio members of the board and the
constitution, as amended, provided
tina. six instead of five others shall oe
elected directly by the convention.
One of the reasons for the enlarge
ment of the board, It was said, was to
obtain more efficient organizations IN
Richmond and Roanoke, where the
loss Of membership last year was
heaviest. The secretary's financial
report had shown the federation to
be in the best condition In its history
with an unexpended balance Of $4,000
on hand. When two or three dele
gates then opposed the proposition to
add another member to the executive
board because of the additional en-
pense Of about s100 a year, a deter
mined fight started. Delegates con-
tinued jumping to their feet and
shouting for recognition so rapidly
that the president had difficulty II
keeping order. There was a great
outpourinC of orato,y agalss; organ
lied labor being slight listed" IN
running its own affairs, and one mem
,, Der declared that if the federation
could get back the members it lost las:

board was approved, and SIX mem
