21st annual convention of U.S. Chamber of Commerce in session. Washington, D.C., June 19. 2,000 delegates assembled in the Mayflower Hotel today for the formal opening of the 21st annual convention of the United States Junior Chamber of Commerce. Caustically condemning the dictatorship of Hitler and Mussolini, Perry Pipkin, Tennessee, president of the gathering, today declared that isolation is a dead issue and that the United States must be inseparably bound to England and France if the 'Atlantic Civilization' is to survive. Pipkin recommended to the delegates that immediate steps be taken to work out a referendum system to reflect an organization opinion of such issues as a national defense. Left to right in the picture - Minor Hudson, President, Washington Junior Board of Trade; Perry Pipkin, President of the U.S. Junior Chamber of Commerce, and A.Z. Foster Wood, General Chairman
