ROME. April 20 (By The Asso-

conference of anything worth while
for the relief of working people
was expressed in an address today,
inaugurating the congress of the
Amsterdam Internationale here, rep
resenting "a, 600. 900 organized work
men.
Representatives of all European
countries were present for the OPEN
ing of the congress when James II.
Thomas, labor leader. introduced
President Dragona of the Italian
Federation of Labor, to deliver the
address of welcome.
For the Genoa conference l have
hope" said Mr.. Dragona. I'VE
saw there the same old nationalistic
clashes that have characterized
these conferences since the end of
the great war. Let us rather put
our hope in this congress TO bring
relief 10 the great suffering of the
proletariat.
Our trust is that true peace will
be found in the solidarity of the
people. The nationalistic SPORT is
rampant at Genoa and there is little
chance hat relief will come from
that gathering"
