Union Executive
Challenges Senate
Right To Probe
Washington U.R) A high
executive of the nation's largest
union today challenged a Senate
group's right to investigate labor
rackets and refused to answer
any of its questions.
Einar O. Mohn, vice president
of the International Brotherhood
of Teamsters, made the chal
lenge in testimony before the
Senate Investigating subcommit
tee. As assistant to President
Dave Beck, Mohn is in effect the
giant union's executive vice
president.
Won't Nam President
But in refusing to answer
questions, Mohn even declined
to say who is the international
president of the union. He con
tended that the committee "does
not have jurisdiction over these
matters."
Mohn's challenge followed a
similar one by Harry Reiss,
identified as an official in Local
284 of the Teamsters Union in
New York and of Local 227 of
the Allied Industrial Workers of
America.
Refuse To Testify
Chairman John L. McClellan
(D.- Ark.) indicated that he wel
comed the challenge to his com
mittee's investigating authority.
"We'll find out who's right,"
McClellan said.
Another union official conced
ed union members, have a right
to know how he spends their
dues. But he refused to tell the
committe. Dominick Santa Ma
ria, 49, Brooklyn, N.Y., declined
to answer most questions on
grounds his answers might tend
to incriminate him.
20 Embassies
Opened Since War
Washington ll.R) Twenty
of the 75 foreign embassies here
represent countries which did
not exist as independent states
before World War II.
Among these are Burma India,
Ceylon, Nepal, Pakistan, Sudan
and" Jordan formerly part of
the British empire and Cam
bodia, 'Laos, Vietnam, Morocco,
Tunisia, Lebanon and Syria
nations once under French con
trol. Iceland formerly belonged to
Denmark, Indonesia was part of
Dutch overseas holdings, Korea
was controlled by Japan, Libya
by Italy, and the Philippines
were U. S.-governed. Israel was
created by the United Nations
in 1948.
The National Geographic So
ciety reported that the great in
crease of embassies here 40
since 1945 has been the nat
ural outgrowth of America's
emergence as a world power of
first rank. This increase reflects
Washington's position as a mecca
of the diplomatic world.
Upgrading of lesser-ranking
legations to embassies has be
come a trend since World War
II.
An embassy usually is presid
ed over by an ambassador who
is empowered to deal directly
with cihefs of state and foreign
ministers. Ministers or charges
d'affaires who head legations
must deal with lesser govern of
ficials. In 1945, the nation's capital
with chiefs of state and foreign
legations; in 1950, 56 embassies
and 14 legations. At present
there are 75 embassies and six
legations.
These six legations represent
Switzerland Yemen, Hungary,
Romania, Latvia and Lithuania.
Switzerland traditionally has no
embassies anywhere in the
world.
