Hoboes of America defend image at Glen Burnie convention
Albert Davis founder Bud Filer of Joona Pa says hoboes are misperceived as bums or tramps. He notes the group is international with 1,043,000 members and that a hobo is a worker who travels seeking odd jobs, while a bum remains stationary. He recalls Christ as a carpenter among hoboes and describes the annual feast ending with Mulligan stew.
