(UPI Telcphoto) State Democrats Tangle on Limiting Of Political Power Salem - IUPII - Democratic Senate members emerged from a closed caucus Tuesday with more bitterness than ever between liberal and conserva tive wings over a bill to limit the powers of political party organizations. The measure, sponsored by Sen. Boyd Overhulse's elec tions committee, would set strict limitations for party conventions, preventing them from endorsing candidates or backing any legislation. Son. Thomas Mahoney CD Portland) said the caucus agreed to delete one section that would have prohibited party officers from holding elective office at the same time. With that change, Mahoney said, In his opinion concensus of the caucus was In support of the bill. Sen. Robert Struub of Eu gene, Democratic state chair man, made it clear, however, he remained firmly opposed to the bill. Straub Is backing a bi-partisan move with exactly the op posite aim: To strengthen party organizations by letting stale party conventions pick national committee officers and national convention dele gates. Straub blasted Mahoney and other backers of the Sen ate bill for bringing their "personal feud" Into the leg islature, by an attempt to hamstring the party. "The 4,000 parly workers who devote their time and energy deserve better than a kick , In the teelh from Ma honey," Straub said. "I'd like to know what Ma honey and Pearson (Walter Pearson, D-Portland) object to In having the party stand up and give Its views on candi dates and Issues," Straub said Path Cleared for Hoffa's Election Washington - IUPII - Team sters Union president James R. Hoffa today had a court cleared path lo undisputed control of the huge union. Two federal court rulings Tuesday removed the last restraints that might have kept Hoffa from complete control of '.lie 1,700,000-mem-bcr union. Judge F. Dickinson Letts ordered the truckers union to hold a convention and elect officers as soon as possible. He also dissolved a three-man monitoring board that has kept an eye on the utiion since Hoffa's election was chal lenged In 1057. Hoffa was expected to win reelection handily. He an nounced thai he and all mem bers of Ihc union's executive board would be up for reelec tion. The convention was ten tatively set tor mid-May In Miami. Senator Demands Public Apology Or Appearance Salem -IUPII- Rep. Edward N. Fadeley did not appear at a meeting Tuesday of the Spe cial Senate committee inves tigating charges made by the Eugene Democrat about cer tain lobbyist activities. Committee member John Hare, (R-Hillsboro) demanded that Fadeley cither appear at a later dale or "publicly apol ogize for the refusal. Fadeley. had given notice that he did not intend to show up at the 2 p.m. meeting but .lie committee met anyway The senators adjourned after 45 minutes, subject to call of the chairman. There were conflicting opln- ions as to what Fadeley meant when he said some lobbyists have huge budgets for Influ encing legislators. Fadeley has emphasized he did not mean to Imply corrup tion. But some senators con tend his remarks do just that. Fadaley 'Fin Fellow' Sen. Anthony Yturri (R- Ontario) said Fadeley Is a "fine fellow" and he is sure Fadeley does not mean that anything corrupt is Involved. Sen. Thomas R. Mahoney (D-Portland) said Fadeley's charges "reflect on 90 mem bers of this legislative assem bly ' and Fadeley should ei ther refute them or produce evidence to support them. "I can only assume there is no evidence," Mahoney said. The committee produced a United Press International clipping from the Oregon Journal quoting Fadeley on tea. is as saying he knows of confidential list" that some lobbyists have relating to per sonal affairs of certain legis lators. The story also quoted Fade- Icy that some lobby groups In Salem have budgets of "many tens of thousands of dollars" for Influencing legislators on certain legislation. Statements Confirmed The committee asked Doug las Gripp, Salem bureau man ager for UPI, if Fadeley made such statements to him and Gripp said yes but that Fade ley had not elaborated. Gripp said Fadeley gave him a resume of his testimony at the Feb. 15 meeting of the House State and Federal Af fairs Committee. Fadeley spoke on behalf of his bill to require lobbyists to register and file expense reports. House Speaker Robert Dun can was criticized for "inter vening" in the matter and di rectly or Indirectly causing Fadeley not lo appear before the Senate group. Sen. Boyd Overhulse, chair man of tile select committee, said Fadeley lold him Monday night that Fadeley wanted to appear but Duncan "didn't want him to." Duncan informed the com mittee he did not feel it prop er for the committee to call a house member before it. Since Fadeley is a legislator, he is immune from subpoena and cannot be forced to testify. Duncan added that the lob byist matter Is properly be fore the house and that Fade ley will appear at the next hearing on the lobbyist bill March S.
