'Get Lost, ' Jim Hoffa Tells
Critics Of Teamsters' Union
MIAMI BEACH, Fla. (AP) in most Teamsters contracts.
James R. Hoffa today advised his The Teamsters convention ad
critics to get lost. He said he's hourncd Friday night after a flam
whipped 'cm and they might as boyant finale to the five-day ses
well admit it. sion-
Hoffa, 48, a one-time ueiroil
warehouse hand, was elected over
whelmingly Friday lo a secona
five-year term as president of the
Teamsters, the nation's largest la
bor union, over only token oppo
sition. Efforts Have Failed
"Seriously," Hoffa remarked la
ter, "I think Bobby Kennedy, his
brother the President, the secre
tary of labor, and the supposed
Senate select committee ought to
recognize now that the time and
effort they've put in trying to de
stroy the Teamsters have complete
ly failed. It was a waste of time."
Hoffa referred, of course, to Pres
ident Kennedy, Atty. Gen. Robert
F. Kennedy, Labor Secretary Ar
thur J. Goldberg, and to the Sen
ate investigating Committee head
ed by Sen. John L. McClellan, D-Ark.-
"From now on, they ought to
leave us alone," Hoffa said.
"They ought to quit fooling
around and let us operate as a
trade union and as Americans."
No Picnic
Hoffa said the charges and In
vestigations piled up against him
and the Teamsters during nearly
four years have been no picnic,
but he said he isn't nervous about
them continuing.
He said that congressional crit
ics ought to admit that, "while
they may embarrass and harass
teamsters, incy cant irignicn
'em."
Hoffa was asked about his goals
for the next five years as head
of the 1.7 million Teamsters un
ion. He said that he wants to in
crease the union's membership to
at least 2 million and return to
"the house of labor," meaning the
AFL-CIO. The federation expelled
the Teamsters for corruption sev
eral years ago.
Hoffa said that another aim is
to minimize strikes while reduc
ing the accepted retirement age to
65 years after 20 years of work.
The present Social Security retire
ment age is 65, but Hoffa has ne
gotiated a 60-year retirement age

and the Association of Oregon
Counties met Friday and estab
lished ground rules for slate con

distribution to the needy.

the rest.
Under the regulations agreed
upon, the counties will meet when

Belgian Staffers
ELISABETHVILLE, Katanga
(AP) The Interior Ministry to
day ordered the entire Belgian
consulate staff expelled in an
angry flareup of Katanga's long
feud with the United Nations. But
Katanga President Moise Tshom
be revoked the order.
The Interior Ministry reacted
after U.N. Swedish troops Friday
night seized Georges Thyssens, a
Belgian adviser in Katanga, and
expelled him from this capital.
One shot was fired in making the
arrest and Thyssens' son was
beaten.
Informed source said Interior
Minister Godefroid Munongo was
angry because the Belgian consu
late staff failed to intervene and
protect Thyssens, a personal
friend.
Collaboration Charged
The Interior Ministry . cused a
member of the Belgian nsulate
staff, Charles Muller, of . 'labor
ating with the United Nations. He
was arrested and expelled this
morning.
Security police raided the con
sulate and even detained consul
Jules Herkens fo.- a time. Some
documents in the consulate were
taken.
When Consul General Henri
Crencr protested to the Interior
Ministry he was told that he and
his staff must leave.
Then Tshombe intervened. He
counts heavily on the Belgians for
help in running this mineral rich
region of the former Belgian
umgo.
Tshombe asked Crcner to con
vey his apologies to the consulate
and lo the Belgian government.
He expressed regrets at the
rash decision ' made by Munon
go, who is considered one of the
strong men in Katanga.
The U.N. in arresting Thyssens
accused him of putting the finger
on Muller, a special diplomatic
adviser to the consulate. The U.N,
said Thyssens told Katanga au
thorities Muller was a socialist
sent to work with the U.N. '
Thyssens was seized at his lux
urious home here Friday night by
Swedish U.N. troops and taken to
a secret destination possibly the
U.N. base in Kamina.
The United Nations' chief rep
resentative in Katanga, Conor C.

Three 16-year-old Montana boys

Expelled July 4
Thyssens was originally ordered

asked to be allowed to stay for a

O'Brien said that when it be

Beck Claims Control
Tightener Necessary
SEATTLE (AP) Seizure of
more union control by Teamsters
Union head James Hoffa was
"absolutely necessary," Dave
Beck, former union president,
says.
Beck, who missed the interna
tional Teamsters' convention this
past week for the first time in
36 vcars, commented on his suc
cessor's action in pushing through
constitutional changes which gave
him almost dictatorial authority.
It was absolutely necessary to
concentrate more control in the
international because of the Lan-drum-Griffin
Act," Beck said.
The LandrumGnffin measure
was described by supporters ai
time of passage as a ( tough union
reform bill.")
Beck said his private real estate

vented him from going to the
Miami Beach, Fla., sessions.

The proposed new rules wide

He cited the city plan to deny
