## Opinion text

HOOK, Circuit Judge.
I concur in the affirmance, because of the practical construction and use by the Association of its paper constitution and resolutions. This was not sporadic or exceptional, but was so general and persistent as to disclose an unlawful purpose of the organization, of which the complaining defendants must have been cognizant.
