Washington -CPB-TeamstersTeamsters boss as a would-be President James R. Hoffa has dictator and Sen. Barry Gold- touched off new demands for tough labor legislation by threatening to combat a union anti-trust proposal with a na tionwide strike. Chairman John L. McClel lan (D-Ark.) of the Senate Rackets Committee said the threat has confirmed the dan ger which he had tried to warn the nation about when the Senate was considering its labor reform bill earlier this year. McClellan denounced the Disc Jockey Ends Sleepless Stint Peoria, IU.-UPD-Disc Jockey Stan Major went to sleep ear ly today after 210 hours with out dozing. Major, 22, crawled in the sackv after claiming a new stay-awake record for disc jockeys, top exponents of the wake-a-thon fad. Earlier he had pronounced himself in "fine shape" and told of his determination to make it to 250 hours, or even 300 hours. But he called it quits Vz hours after claiming a new American record of 203 hours and 25 minutes -one minute longer than rival disc jockey Jim Austin of Springfield, HI. water (R-Ariz.) accused Hoffa of trying to place himself above the law. Members of the AFL-CIO executive council also - said privately that Hoffa's out burst dimmed chances of suc cess for their campaign to get House changes in the Senate approved reform bill. AFL-CIO President George Meany was reported to be distressed by Hoffa's state ment. Other AFL-CIO leaders called the threatened walkout a stupid gesture that would serve to rally anti-union forces in the House. Advocating 'Revolution' Meany disassociated the federation from any protest strike Tuesday and implied that Hoffa was advocating "revolution." The senators were aroused by Hoffa's speech in Browns ville, Tex., Tuesday to mem bers of the International Longshoremen's Association. Hoffa said a bill to apply the anti-trust law to unions would be introduced in Con gress next week.. Its enact ment, he added, fwould leaye us with the solution to have one solitary strike throughout the United States to tie up all employers across the nation at one time." Prepares Draft The Teamsters president obviously referred to McClel lan's recent statement that he was considering the introduc tion of a bill to place trans portation unions under anti trust statutes. McClellan told United Press International today, he has prepared a tentative draft of such a measure but has not decided when he would intro duce it. However, he said, it definitely was time for Con gress to consider such a step.

Cacka is a prominent potato grower in the Malin area. He said "the country ought not to be left exposed" to the kind of power that could be "bigger than the government itself." McClellan said the legisla tion he has prepared would "deal with the very threat that Hoffa made" in Browns ville. He said "the people would be hungry in a week" if the Teamsters and other transport unions joined in a nationwide strike.
