Daniel J. Tobin of Indianapolis was reelected treasurer and Frank Morri son of Washington was reelected sec retary. Cincinnati, Ohio, was selected as the place for the 1922 convention. Fort Worth, Texas, was the only other city cons idered. This sweeping victory, the labor chief said tonight at the close of the federation's 1st annual convention, demonstratcd that the American trade union movement "will not submit to dictation from the forces of corrup. tion or greed-neither the Ilearsts nor the Garys can chart our course or se lect our leaders. "Our1 movement is united. It is pre pared to take the ag.,ressive in defense of the rights of'the toilers. It will not ie swerve'd from its course.
