Tobin, president of . the International Brotherhood of Teamsters (AFL) said today, Tobin had rejected ap pointment by President Truman as secretary of labor. Thomas EL. Flynn, Tobin's execu tive assistant, said the teamsters' chief also had declined the ap pointment from President Roose velt. "Never before has publicity been given to Mr. Tobin's refusal to become a cabinet member, not once but -twice," Flynn wrote in the August issue of "The Interna tional .Teamster." The article said President Tru man called Tobin to the White House last June 29 and offered him the post vacated by the death of Secretary of Labor Lewis B. Schwellenbach on June 10. . "Mr. Tobin declined the appoint ment from President Truman as he had declined a similar appoint ment from President Roosevelt in the fall of 1943," Flynn said. Flynn added that Tobin also de clined to recommend anyone to the president for the vacancy. "Mr. Tobin's rejection of the of fer by President Truman does not indicate a lack of appreciation of the confidence ' of the president," the article went on. "Nor can it be construed as opposition to Pres ident Truman or the democratic party. "Instead It was in conformity with Mr. Tobin's determination to remain strictly neutral until the campaign gets under way and the position of both parties and their candidates has become clear."
