Dispute rages in Hammonton, small city of Italian-born citizens midway between here and Philadelphia, as the result of an invasion by the Khaki Shirts of America.
The chief opposition to the Fascist outfit is from the Amalgamated Clothing Workers of America, which in Hammonton includes both Jewish and Italian elements employed in South Jersey Factories.
After the Amalgamated obtained a prohibition against a Khaki Shirt parade, Paul Azzara, "Shirt" leader, stoutly protested that his men are "an organization of American citizens who believe in God and the American flag, and we pledge to support the Constitution and enforce law and order."
