San Diego, Calif. 'tfi Frank
W. Brewster Saturday remained
chairman of the Western Con
ference of Teamsters but his of
ficial power was lessened and
his hold over the membership
was shaken by the revelation of
irregularities in his usage of
union funds.
An audited financial state
ment of the conference submit
ted Friday to the 500 delegates
attending the final session of the
21st annual convention disclosed
that Brewster had borrowed
$95,000 of union funds. Further
it disclosed that he had repaid
most of it with property he
turned over to the conference.
The report showed the official
had repaid less than $9,000 in
cash after making the loan in
1955 and for the remaining $86,
728 deeded eight pieces of prop
erty to the conference evaluated
at $129,000.
Home Deeded
Included in the property he
deeded to the union was his S45.
000 Seattle, Wash., home, which
he then .rented for $350 a month.
Brewster was convicted by a
federal court in Washington on
contempt of Congress for refus
ing to answer questions about
his financial arrangements.
The audit also disclosed the
conference strike fund, totalling
$1,424,790 and 145,931 in the
Canadian division, has loaned
$100,000 at 3i per cent inter
est to the Western Teamsters in
Seattle and $110,000 to the Los
Angeles Teamsters local for
building projects.
Such loans will not be per
mitted under a new constitu
tion provision.

Flu Epidemic in
Asian Countries
Appears Dying Out
Tokyo TP An influenza epi
demic which afflicted millions
of Asians, killing more than
2,000 of them in the last eight
months, appears to be dying out
in the Orient, medical author
ities said Saturday.
But they warned it could
recur again late this year, pos
sibly in a more severe form
than the relatively mild virus
that cut a swath from Red China
and Japan to New Guinea and
Indonesia.
Cases of the disease cropped
up in the United States and Eu
rupe. but not in epidemic pro
portions. Outbreak of Disease
The World Health Organiza
tion at Geneva, Switzerland, re
ported among ships crews in
London and Bristol, England. A
few cases have been reported
in Holland. Others have been re
ported in Hawaii and San Fran
cisco. The epidemic in the Far East
apparently started last fall in
China and Japan. By late Janu
ary and early February, it had
spread to the point where near
ly 2.500 schools in Tokyo were
closed or had some of their
classes suspended. It was esti
mated that 2.500.000 Japanese
came down with the disease.
The virus, characterized by
running noses, backaches, head
aches, sneezing and pain in its
victims, skipped quickly through
the Pacific area.
Reports 2,300 Cases
Formosa,. Hong Kong, Indo
nesia, Thailand, Singapore Ma
laya and the Philippines were
hit. Dutch New Guinea Saturday
reported 2,300 cases, all "very
mild."
The Philippines suffered the
worst blow. There, health de
partment official Dr. Jacinto
Dizon recorded 919.057 cases,
roughly four per cent of the
population, during a five-week
period ended June 15.
The death toll also was high
2.249 deaths, mostly young
children and elderly adults.

Scientists Say Dud
Won't Occur Again
Las Vegas. Nev. flpi Three
apparently nerveless scientists
who disarmed a "dud" nuclear
device shortly after it failed to
explode at the Nevada test site,
said Saturday that a detonation
failure "will never happen
again."
The three clambered atop a
500-foot tower Friday and dis
armed the device when a hitch
in the firing mechanism halted
a scheduled test.
Robert Burton, 35, of the San
dia Laboratory, Albuquerque,
N.M., married and the father of
two, was credited with the actual
disarming. But the two otters,
Forrest Sairbrother and Barney
Rubin, both of the Livermore,
Calii., laboratory, played impor
tant parts in completing the job.
Burton said he was "not par
ticularly nervous" and that the
chances were "about a million
to one" that the device would
have gone off unexpectedly.
The three, who said they were
filling their responsibility in the
task, indicated that steps would
be taken to insure positively all
future detonations.
"This will never happen
again," Rubin said. He indicated
that an electronic alarm system
would be installed in future de
tonation systems to warn of pow
er failures such as the one which
stopped Friday's blast.
Two other scientists remained
at the bottom of the tower while
Burton, Rubin and Sairbrother
went aloft. They were Walter
Arnold, also of the Livermore
laboratory, and Edward R.
Tucker, of the firm of Edger
ton, Germeshausen and Grier.
