The first post-war convention of the Jewish Labor Committee, an organization of 500,000 organized workers, will open in Atlantic City tomorrow. Representatives of affiliated A.F.L. and C.I.O. unions as well as 12 fraternal delegates from DP campe, European labor unions and from Jewish communities in Poland, Belgium, France and Sweden will attend.
Discussions will center about the problems of displaced European Jews and the waging of a campaign against intolerance and anti-Semitism in this country. Among the speakers will be Haskon Lie, general secretary of the Norwegian Labor Party, Willian Green, A.F.L. chief, and David Dubinsky, president of the International Ladies Garment Workers Union.
