Refuses To Join British And
Russian Trade Unions In
Anglo-Soviet Council

EoSton.-Flat rejection of Il proposal
that it reconsider its refusal to join
British and Russian trade unions in
the Anglo-Soviet Trade Union Council
marked the close of the 63rd annual
convention of the American Federation
of Labor.
The fundamental differences be-
tween the federation and the govern

glaring that no liaiSOn between the two
is now remotely possible" report by
the AFL's committee on internationa
labor relations stated. 1t was adopted
without dissent by the delegates.

great day when the Russian people will
be rewarded for their sacrifices by the
blessings of Il free trade union move

cal and economic democracy.
when that day arrives, the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor will rejoice
in welcoming the millions of Russian
working men and women into Il free
democratic international labor organ

labor solidarity"
The committees report and the dele

they were solidly behind Russa's fight
against Hitlerism, but they maintained
that it does not impose upon us any
obligation or necessity to recognize or
cooperate with the Russian labor or

Renews Boxing Tiff
Ring Body Asks Counsel
To Rule on Request

Goldie Ahearns application for a
permit to stage boxing show fea-
turing Heavyweights Tony Music
and AL Hart at Uline Arena today
signaled the start of Round In his
feud with the District Boxing Com
mission. Ahearn specifically asked
permission to run February %, a
Monday night and the night usually
assigned to Joe Turner.
Already pending in court is
Ahearn's suit for $106, 224.08 against
the commission for alleged damages
suffered last December when the
governing body refused him permis-
sion to sell seats placed over the ice
rink at Uline. Previous to that the
commission had declined to sane
ton a show for him on a Monday
night, pointing out that that par
ticular day usually was taken by
Turner.
No action has been taken on
Ahearns latest application, pending
ruling from Corporation Counsel
Richmond B. Keech. Granting of
the permit would be a signal vic
tory for Ahearn and Mike Uline,
proprietor of the arena, and its re-
fusal Is certain to mean more court
action by Denny Hughes, Ahearn's

As His Foe Closes In

Vince Pimpinelli made one mis-
take in his fight with George Parks
last night at Turner's Arena and
that was all the strong armed COL
ored boy needed to slip over a knock
out punch. Only IS seconds re-
manned Of the sixth round when
Parks, trailing up to that point, con-
nected with his haymaker.
Plmpinelli had no trouble with his
opponent as long as he stuck to box
ing, but in the fourth round he tried
to slug 1t out with the muscular
Parks and quickly realized his mis-
take. The District fighter shook
him up with an assortment of brisk
one-two's to the head, forcing Pim-
pinelli to resume his role of ring
master.
In the sixth Pimpinelli seemed to
have full command Of the situation.
He had backed Parks into a corner
and was moving in with a left hook
to the body when Parks, looking for
such an opportunity, saw his chance
to bring one up from the floor.
Pimpinelli didn't know what hit him.
Referee Charley Reynolds said sit
was the most explosive right-hand
punch I've ever seen in any ring"
Deacon Johnny Brown outpointed
Jesse Moraney in the eight-round
