G 2 Tht Nowi-Review, Roseburg, Rackets Committee Invites Sunday Punch For Hoffa WASHINGTON (AP) The Sen ate rackets committee today invit ed the courts and executive agen cies to swine any Sunday punch that might be aimed at removing James II. Hoffa as Teamsters Un ion president. The committee, in a report to the Senate, called llofla an ally of gangsters, betrayer of fellow un ionists, and a corrupter of men. Ending three years of investiga tion, during which it repeatedly called him a disgrace to the labor movement, the committee voiced this unanimous declaration: "From this point on, the fate and future of James It. Hoffa rest with the executive and judicial branches of the government, the monitors (a court appointed group created to try to police the Teamsters) and inevitably with his own members." "The decent elements of or ganized labor have hung a parish's label" on Hoffa, the com mittee said, renewing its 1958 find ing that he should be ousted. "If Hoffa is successful in com- Botulism Poisoning Suspected On Ship ANCHORAGE, Alaska (AP)- bloinach aches in Alaska turned into king - sized headaches for western laboratory otlicials and Air Force personnel sent to find and deliver botulism scrum late Saturday. The alarm went out when four men aboard a Navy tug in the Aleutian Islands were stricken with severe stomach pains after drinking tomato juice. The Navy feared deadly botulism poisoning, caused by tainted food. While the men were being rushed to the Elmcndorf Air Force Base hospital here, the call went out for scrum. There was none in Alaska. A supply was found in Portland, Ore., but doctors were afraid it was insufficient. The search spread to Denver and Los Angeles while an Air Force team under took the 1,500-mile mercy flight with the Portland scrum. Even before the plane arrived, the sailors landed here their stom ach aches replaced by hunger pangs. The sailors were identified as Norman Welandt, 18," Spokane, Wash.; Ronald Talsma, 21, Lan caster, Calif.; Richard Wells, 24, Amesbury, Mass., and Leon So kolic, 22, of Chicago. Ncuberger Post Filled By Jackson PORTLAND (AP) Sen. Hen ry M. Jackson (DWash) will fill a vacancy on the Outdoor Recre ation Resources Review Commis sion left by the death of Sen. Richard L. Ncuberger (D Ore) earlier this month. This was announced here Satur day night by Francis W. Sargent, the commission's executive direc tor. In a talk lo the Federation of Western Outdoor Clubs' third bi ennial conference on Pacific Northwest wilderness problems, Sargent warmly praised the late Oregon senator. He said, "Dick Ncuberger was a statesman whose leadership made a great contribution in many fields, but his dedication and ser vice to the cause of conservation will bo a lasting source of in spiration. He will be missed." The commission, an indepen dent body responsible only to the President and ConRress, is mak ing a four-year survey of the na tion's recreational facilities and planning -a long - range program for their use. Sargent said the huge popu lation growth and fresh demand for recreational facilities are mak ing the commission's job a big one. He said. "I am told that po tential users are added lo our population at the rate of one per every 11 seconds. It seems cer tain that these new citizens will have more leisure time and more money to spend than their fathers "And yet all these new demands must be met by a number of acres wiucn we cannot increase.

S. government and public opin ion, the cause of decent unionism is lost and labor-management re lations in this country will return to I he jungle era," it said. "Plundering of union treasuries and health and welfare funds, ruth less denial of democratic proced ures, and outright betrayal of rank and file members were clearly es tablished," the committee charged. It said Hoffa had bargained away wages and other benefits Midwest ern Teamsters might have receiv ed, then undermined Teamsters wage levels in New York so his Midwestern contracts wouldn't look too bad. Hoffa said he akays got for the Teamsters the best contracts in the whole collective bargaining field. The committee said this claim has been exploded. The committee said Hoffa's own testimony "taken as a whole is unworthy of belief." It called it "a practically unfathomable mix ture of ambiguity, verbosity, auda city and mendacity." The committee alleged that Hof fa forced union members to let him bargain away many of their fringe benefits in a contract with Riss & Co. of Kansas City, Mo., a big trucking firm, and Trans- American Freight Lines, Inc., of Detroit. The report described as Hoffa "inclination to corrupt" his pur ported olfcr to pay disputed legal fees to Godfrey P. Schmidt, then a court-a p p o i n t e d monitor, if Schmidt would resign and let some one more friendly to Hoffa take over the job. The report said the case of Abe Gordon in New York shows "the appalling consequences of rack eteer infiltration of a union." It said Gordon, a pal of mobster (Johnny Dio) Dioguardia. runs a truck line that "hasn't had a con tract with the Teamsters since 1946 and his drivers are paid below pre vailing union scale." Hoffa often has pledged to clean up Uie Teamsters. But the com mittee said it found conditions just as bad now, as in 1957 and 1958 when it found "shocking and dis graceful" corruption and abuse of union members. "There was overwhelming evi dence of infiltration of this union by racketeers and hoodlums who bad seized and held power at all administrative levels," the report continued. i Hie report said there is irrefut able evidence that the underworld helped to install Hoffa as head of this largest union in the nation, and that he has shown no desire to break with these "disreputable and questionable characters."
