Hawaii Union
Org
anizer To
Face Probers
Washington -U?D- Senate in
vestigators planned today to
question a Teamsters Union
organizer who stirred up a
storm in sunny Hawaii last
year.
The organizer, Mike Singer,
was described as teamsters
President James R. Hoffa's
"best friend" in Los Angeles
But some Honolulu business
men consider him "persona
non grata."
Varied Activities
According to the commit
tee, Los Angeles Local 626
sent Singer to Honolulu to
organize some meat compa
nies. But a committee spokes
man said Singer's tactics in
cluded halting milk deliveries
for two days, picketing the
docks and bringing pressure
on meat suppliers on the
mainland.
Small Business. Administra

scheduled to testify about the
effects of Singer's Honolulu
junket on some firms there.

business activities.
Winner Refused Post
Singer was named in testi

teamsters who tried to keep
a rebellious member of Los

Sidney Cohen, former 208

won an election last month
to unseat John W. Filipoff as
secretary-treasurer. But Fili
poff, he said, refused to rec
ognize defeat.
Cohen said he finally yield

lieutenants and agreed to re
sign the post at a meeting
here. But when he returned
home he had a change of heart
and still is trying to make his
election victory stick.

of need.
It also would set aside
another $65 million to be
used at any time during the
five years to help build long
er runways and other facili
ties for jet-age travel. States
or municipalities would have
to match all federal money
dollar-for-dollar.
Ike's Proposal
Eisenhower proposed a
four-year, $200 million air
port program. The President
and other Republicans have
said the Democratic measure
would provide money for ter
minals and other items not
directly involved with flight
But Chairman A. S. Mike
Monroney (D-Okla.) of the
Senate aviation subcommittee
denied today that there were
any frills in the bill. He said
the legislation was needed to
make air travel safer.
Other congressional news:
- Civil Rights: Southerners
attacked sections of Eisen
hower's civil rights proposals

munities to desegregate their
schools. One called for legis
lation to make it a federal
crime to use force or threats
of force to obstruct court
orders in school desegrega
tion cases. The other -would
give federal financial and
technical aid to help areas
with integration problems.
But there were growing indi
cations that Congress prob
ably would pass some civil
rights law this year.
Budget: Sen. George Aiken
(R-Vt.) said Eisenhower's bat
tle for a balanced budget was
not "a winning fight." The
liberal Republican said the
President should economize
by eliminating waste and

plugging tax loopholes in
stead of "taking it out on the
little folks" by trimming
programs. But the GOP Sen
ate leadership stiffened its re
sistance to Democratic spend
ing proposals.
Information: Chairman Wil
liam L. Dawson (D-Ill.) of the
House Government Opera
tions Committee ordered his
government information sub
committee to investigate the
Navy's refusal to give a full
copy of a study on the Mili
tary Sea Transport Service to
the General Accounting Of
fice. The-Navy has said pub
lication of the study would
cause its inspectors to be less
frank in future reports.
