oo Expulsion From AFL-CIO Would Be Expensive for Teamsters Washington t? A union which is expelled from the AFL CIO is in much the same posi tion as a man who is dropped from membership in a lodge. He saves money on dues. But he loses rights and privileges which could be very important to him particularly when he's in a jam. The scandal-rocked Teamsters and five smaller unions current ly are threatened with expulsion &5 a result of corruption charges filed by the AFL-CIO high com mand. Rooting them out would require a two-thirds vote at the atFL-CIO convention in Decem ber. o Major penalties for living out ride the AFL-CIO include: Loss of strike aid from the federation and its member un ions. This could mean refusal to extend loans or to respect picket lines. Ban on mutual aid pacts be- Uniled Textile Workers. Distil lery Workers, Laundry Workers and Allied Industrial Workers. The Bakers' Union claims 160, 000 member, but the others each have less than 100,000. No union has been expelled since the AFL merged with the CIO less than two years ago. Earlier labor history provides no clear-cut answer to the ques tion of what happens to a union which leaves or is expelled from a parent labor organization. Mine Workers Bounced John L. Lewis' United Mine Workers were bounced from the AFL in 1936 when Lewis led the drive to organize the mass pro duction industries in the new CIO. The mine workers thrived and Lewis became for a time the dominant figure on the Ameri can labor scene. He later pulled his union out of the CIO and briefly rejoined the AFL.

With vigorous opposition from James Carey's International Un ion of Electrical Workers (IUE), that figure shrank to 65,000. Ca rey's union, just eight years old, now claims 425,000 members. Labor Secretary James P. Mitcheil said recently that any union trying to go it alone under today's conditions could expect its membership to dwin dle drastically. Yet expulsion of the racket ridden International Longshore men's Association by the AFL in 1953 has not weakened the grip of the ILA on East Coast ports. The rival International Broth erhood of Longshoremen, set up by the AFL, failed to dislodge the ILA in two labor board elec tions among dockworkers. The AFL spent $1,400,000 in the efforts but got nowhere. The IBL now claims 15.000 members, most of them in the Great Lakes region. den. Lack of support in lobbying Jor special interest legislation. The Teamsters must cope with innumerable regulations in the trucking industry, and value this support highly. Threat of membership raids bv rival unions set up by the AFL-CIO. Tough Going Alone Unaffiliated unions find it tough to make themselves heard in national and international af fairs. The AFL-CIO, with its 15,000,000 members, is widely regarded as organized labor's official spokesman. It rarely bothers to speak up for the special interests of expelled unions. On the other hand, unions stand to gain financially from ouster. Affiliates pay 60 cents a member each year to the AFL CIO. The Teamsters alone kick in about $800,000 annually. Besides the 1,400,000-member Teamsters, smaller unions which may be expelled from the federa- All Nine Negroes af Little Rock School Litle Rock, Ark. (IP) Nine Negro students returned to in tegrated Central High Wednes day under federal troop protec tion. It was the first time in two weeks that illness had not kept two to four of the students out of classes. The nine arrived as usual to day in an Army station wagon, j accompanied by one jeep. An officer escorted them to the en trance to the building, and they were taken inside by a para trooper of the 101st Airborne Division. Tlie United Electrical Work- tion are the Bakery Workers.

Many labor leaders privately agree that the miners have ap parently suffered little from not being a part of the federation. Lewis' strong following and the mine workers' ability to shut off coal production frees the union from dependence on outside help. The CIO's ouster of 11 Com munist - dominated unions in 1949-50 practically eliminated nine of them. Longshoremen Kept Strength Only one, Harry Bridges' West Coast Longshoremen's Union, kept up its strength. The Mine, Mill and Smelter Workers lost about half of its members retained a solid core in Mountain area.

An angler can troll at any level with a new depth regu lator on his line. Salem Individuals who transport more than five Christ mas trees at any one time over Oregon roads or highways must have evidence of ownership un less he is the actual owner of the trees or they are being transported by common carrier, according to State Forester Dwight L. Phipps. Phipps pointed out that the recent session of the state legis lature passed the law as a means of preventing Christmas tree trespass. The Christmas tree as sociation and woodland and tree farm owners were behind the legislation. The individual must have a bill of sale while transporting the trees which must show the name and address of the original owner, the number of trees by species and the description of the land from which the trees were removed, the forester pointed out. Increasing Demands "With the increasing demands for Christmas trees in the holi day trade and the high prices paid for both stumpage and the tree on the lot, together with the tree farm movement where trees are grown for wood production, it is becoming increasingly diffi cult to secure stumpage," Phipps stated. "There have been numerous occasions of trespass even to the extent of cutting trees during the daytime, yarding them to in conspicuous places and remov ing them ' at night.
