The Germans brought up fresh reserves and launched a series of desperate attacks, but were said to have been unable to regain their foothold on the river bank.

According to George E. Keane, an official of the home, the priorities order was granted after the War Production Board had made a ough investigation of the situation and had seen the sort of work being done there. The sum of $10.000 is needed to complete the new building, the fund for which had an initial donation of $1.000 which will enable the home to start construction at once. It has been apparent for some time that the present building facilities for the manufacture of brooms and mops are inadequate to meet the demands of the army, navy and Maritime Commission. Of the 180 blind men now employed 65 men formerly worked in the rubber department of the factory making mats.

A night shift, started this Summer, has relieved the situation only temporarily. Additional production units must be put into operation at once, he claims. The blind workers are producing 1.000 brooms a week at the present time and it is necessary to produce considerably more a week in order to meet orders, This means that this year the blind men of the Industrial Home must make for the army, navy and Maritime Commission 722.000 brooms, 900.000 mops and more than 1,000,000 mop handies. "The home has solved many problems since the war started, with the help of good friends in Brooklyn," Mr.

A. L. P. Poll Is Set In a Statewide gesture of unalterable opposition to the nomination Attorney General Bennett for Governor, the American Labor party today called on the 2.000 deledates who will choose its gubernatorial candidate to commit themselves before convening. The maneuver, ordered yesterday by State Chairman Luigi Antonini.

apparently was devised to counteract the Democrats' action in scheduling their convention ahead of the A. L. and to provide a definite warning that Labor forces will not support Bennett under any circumstances. Senator Mead is expected to roll up an impressive majority in the pre -convention poll, as he did in the recent tally of sentiment among A. L.

P. delegates in Manhattan, but his pledge to campaign for any nominee chosen by the Democrats would eliminate him as a third candidate. It was indicated by A. L. P.

leaders that, in the event Bennett wins the Democratic nomination, even an indorsement of the Attorney General by President Roosevelt would not change their third -man plans. Such a ticket, it was hinted, might be led by Controller Joseph D. McGoldrick. Republican State Chairman Edwin F. Jaeckle came to the city yesterday to confer with Nassau County Executive J.
