Meany charges AM A with frautf i(t t&tt&tftxi of Yoretf record
NEW YORK (UPI)-iCharges
and countercharges of fraud
and falsehood were exchanged
Wednesday by the head of the
AFL-CIO and the president of
the American Medical Associa
tion (AMA).
President George Meanv of
the labor group angrily charged
the AMA with 'an absolute
fraud," with the alleged circu
lation of a "forged" anti-union
phonograph record.
AMA President Dr. Edward
R. Annis, issued a counterblast
from Washington saying "the
reckless charge of fraud leveled
at the AMA ... is completely
false."
The exchange grew out of a
$400,000 damage suit filed
Wednesday by a Pennsylvania
Steelworkers union official
(against the AMA Mr distribut
ing the fraudulent record.
Filed By Normile
The suit was filed in district
court in Washington by Paul
Normile, director of the United
Steelworkers of America's Dis
trict 16 in Pittsburgh.
Normile said the record car
ried a voice falsely identified
as his, which caused him "ex
treme humiliation, embarass
ment and mental anguish and
injuring his reputation."
In rebuttal, Dr. Annis termed
the lawsuit "ridiculous." He
said the lawsuit was "a trans
parent publicity stunt and a
smoke screen to divert atten
tion from the hearings being
conducted by the House Ways
& Means Committee on the ad
ministration's health care bill."
Anok said th AMA would re
serve its reply for court but
added: "However, the filing of
the suit will serve a good pur
pose if it alerts the American
people to the political tactics of
certain labor leader3 and coer
cion used by them to raise po
litical funds from union mem
bers." Record Voice Threats
Normile later appeared at a
news conference where the rec
ord was played. The voice on
the record did not sound much
like Normile's as he spoke to
newsmen. In tough language it
threatened union members with
the "graveyard shift" if they
did not contribute to the AFL
CIO's Committee on Political
Education (COPE) for the pur
pose of pushing the medicare
biH through Cwgrtes.
"It obviously is not ma speak
ing," Normile said, "but we
have not been able to find out
who made the record, where it
was produced or by whom."
Steelworker's President David
J. McDonald, who appeared at
the news conference with Nor
mile, said his union would ren
der all possible assistance to
Normile and said he was
shocked that the AMA "would
countenance the political mal
practice so evident in this com
pletely spurious recording."
Normile said the record was
being distributed by the Ameri
can Medical Political Action
Committee (AMPAC) for use at
doctor's meetings to get them
to contribute to AMPAC.
Some American froops to be
returned from S. Viet Nam
HONOLULU (UPI)-Approxi-mately
1,300 American troops
now serving in South Viet Nam
will be returned home within
the next two months, according
to top-level foreign policy plan
ners for the United States.
The announcement was made
Wednesday at the close of a se
cret one-day meeting of high
ranking U.S. military and civil
ian leaders at the Pearl Har
bor headquarters of Adm. Har
ry D. Felt, U.S. commander in
chief, Pacific.
The planners, led by Secre
tary of State Dean Rusk and
Defense Secretary Robert Mc-
Namara, issued a brief formal
statement at the close of the
meeting which apparently
was devoted entirely to the fu
ture position of the United
States in South Viet Nam.
The statement, given to news
men by McNamara's public af
fairs officer, Arthur Sylvester,
said that a contingent of 300
U.S. troops would leave South
Viet Nam Dec. 3, and an addi
tional 1,000 would leave near
the end of the year.
Officials said there are at
present 16,500 U.S. troops as
sisting and training the Vietna
mese. The statement said reports
received by the planners "indi
cated establishment of excellent
working relations between U.S.
officials and members of the
new Vietnamese government."

Television in review
: Documentary-makers shaming
TV entertainment departments
By Rick Ou Brow
UPI Staff Writer
- HOLLYWOOD (UPI) - The
new season continues to em
phasize how the documentary
makers are shaming the enter
tainment departments In televi
sion achievement. Tuesday
night there was "Greece: The
Golden Age." Wednesday night
came "That War in Korea," 90
minutes of high drama and su
'perlative craftmanship, and
"The Festival Frenzy," an
hour of high comedy and adult
pleasure.
NBC-TV's "That War in Ko

endeavor, and was a consum

lice action" that cost so many
American lives.
"We are not at war, the
President said," narrator Rich
ard Boone recited in starling
the recollection of the conflict,
"Stand or die" was the order
at Pusan. "Who won?" a sol
dier asked when the fighting
was over. Boone spoke all the
words of the script, and if an
Emmy could be awarded for
narration that contributes im-
mensley to the accomplishment
of a program, he is entitled to
it. With sensitivity, irony, com
passion and simple eloquence,
he was magnificent in convey
ing all the innuendoes of the
"Project 20" program.
The meshing of the tasks of
all those who created was en
viable. The Richard Hanser
script was a model of literacy,
research and impact that should
be studied by all documentary
writers. The music by Robert
Kussell Bennett was striking,
ranging from the devilish glor
ies ot war to the lightness of
nervous relaxation by troops to
the miseries Inflicted on fight
ing men and civilians alike.
And producer-director Donald
Hyatt, in his selectivity and as
similation, gave the audience,
in the end, a presentation that
swept from moments of gran
deur to personal pathos, forget
ting no levels of experience.
The program did not probe
deeply into many of the contro
versial political aspects of the
war. It stuck mainly to action,
and many scenes come flashing
memorably to mind: The night
time naval bombardment, the
high-tide landing of Marines,
the crap game, the writing of
letters in the snow, the United
Nations troops dancing at news
of the cease-fire, the turncoats,
the films of brainwashing.
There was President Tru
man's relieving Gen. Douglas
MacArthur of duty, and MacAr
thur's farewell speech to Con
gress, and the rise of Sen. Jo
seph McCarthy. There was the
heroic sergeant testifying how
he escaped after being wounded
and buried alive by the Com
munists. "The Festival Frenzy," mean
while, was an ABC-TV look at
a number of European festivals
and was a droll accomplish
ment of an earthy and sophis
ticated order, certain to help
popularize and glamorize docu
mentaries. Among the high
lights was a first-rate tongue-in-cheek
cvamination of the
crassness of the Venice Film
Festival as exemplified by the
publicity-seekers and pubiicity
makers. The witty script by Gene
Searchinger, who also was the
producer and director, was giv
en a narration of perfect dry
ness by executive producer John
Secondari. and the benefit of an
expert comic camera. My fa
vorite event was the "Festival
for Ourselves" in Rome, in
which participants gorge them
selves for a week in competing
restaurants.
