DAVE TAKES THE FIFTH
Dave Beck, when called before
the senate Investigating commit­
tee this week, refused to answer
questions because he might In­
criminate himself.
His decision to hide behind the
fifth amendment and not to give
testimony that might help him be
found guilty may be the best
thing that has happened in the la­
bor movement for years. Certain­
ly the more responsible heads of
labor will have to go through
with the AFIX'IO resolution to
expel labor groups whose officers
took the fifth amendment.
